Restoring Torn Photos Restoring Torn Photos There are many ways to restore old photos. Here I look at a different approach for bringing two pieces of a torn photo together. The end result looks great, and you'll see the tools that repair the photo a lot faster than if I used the traditional route. Runtime: 00:04:44 Added: May 14, 2010 Views: 15,326	00:04:44
Pro Sports Background Pro Sports Background This video shows a cool effect for backgrounds behind sports photos that can be used in everything from ads to little league and school photos. You'll see that a couple of quick gradients can add some drama and change the entire look and feel of an image. Runtime: 00:05:00 Added: March 23, 2010 Views: 9,478	00:05:00
Ghosted Man Effect Ghosted Man Effect I saw an ad for a reality TV show that included the outline of a person wearing a suit – with no one actually wearing the suit. This could have been done in a number of ways, but I'll show you how to fake it in Photoshop to achieve the same effect. Runtime: 00:07:47 Added: March 17, 2010 Views: 2,791	00:07:47
Color Balancing Multiple Parts of a Photo Color Balancing Multiple Parts of a Photo Color balancing one part of a photo often makes another part look worse. It can be difficult to perfect all parts of a photo. Luckily the Adjustment Brush, a new tool in Photoshop CS4 Camera Raw, lets us achieve good color in multiple parts of a photo.

Background Blur Background Blur When we think of blurring we usually think of the Gaussian Blur filter. But the blur photographers get from it tends to look fake. The Lens Blur filter provides a much more realistic blur and, with some setup time, can create some very realistic results. Runtime: 00:06:49 Added: January 29, 2010 Views: 18,007	00:06:49
On Image Controls On Image Controls Image Controls simplify the process of figuring out which adjustment sliders will affect certain areas of your photos. With CS4 you just open an image adjustment and click-and-drag on it and Photoshop makes all the corresponding adjustments. Runtime: 00:03:12 Added: January 21, 2010 Views: 1,890	00:03:12
Vibrance Vibrance Trying to get the color in your photos saturated enough, but not too much (and without degrading the skin tones), is a very common problem for photographers. The new Vibrance adjustment in CS4 makes this task much easier. Runtime: 00:04:53 Added: January 11, 2010 Views: 3,978	00:04:53
Double Processing in Camera Raw Double Processing in Camera Raw Camera Raw is great for global changes, but what happens when you make one part of the photo look good and another part starts to look bad? That's when you call in a technique called Double Processing. Runtime: 00:05:57 Added: January 05, 2010 Views: 4,305	00:05:57
CS4's Content Aware Scaling Feature CS4's Content Aware Scaling Feature If you've ever had to scale an image in Photoshop, you've probably noticed that Photoshop squishes or stretches it. Content Aware Scaling instead inserts (or removes) bands of pixels throughout the image and keeps the image resolution totally intact. Runtime: 00:06:18 Added: December 16, 2009 Views: 7,325	00:06:18

Removing Distortion from Wide-Angle Photos Removing Distortion from Wide-Angle Photos Wide-angle lenses often introduce distortion into photos. Tall buildings look like they're leaning over, and, depending on how close you are to your subject, some things may look like they're bulging or curved. This tutorial will show how to fix that.

CS4's Hue/Saturation Dialog CS4's Hue/Saturation Dialog CS4 made some pretty slick changes to the Hue/Saturation dialog that take some of the guesswork out of using it. We'll take a look at 'em (and some neat shortcuts) in this video. Runtime: 00:04:36 Added: October 01, 2009 Views: 6,899	00:04:36
