Action lines and speed lines add a sense of motion. Create a new layer and use a brush with a tapered shape. Draw lines radiating from the point of impact or movement. Vary the thickness and opacity of the lines to create depth. Use motion blur effects to further enhance the sense of speed. Experiment with different colors (often yellow or white) to make them stand out.
