Cutting Out a Shape From a Shape in Adobe Photoshop

I’ve been using shapes for various things in Adobe Photoshop for as long as I can remember. I never actually learned everything I needed to know about them though. There’s a lot to them. Much more than the typical adding a curve or a bend to something and a custom shape, like a paw print, […]

How To Copy & Reuse a Layer Effect (Style) in Adobe Photoshop

Sometimes I sit and wonder exactly how many shortcuts there actually are in applications such as Adobe Photoshop. I mean, it seems like I unearth a new one every single day. And they’re hidden in plain sight too. A tiny icon here or a click and a drag there. I guess this is what it […]

Creating a Sketch Effect with Blend Modes & Filters in Adobe Photoshop

I remember back when I was first starting off with Adobe Photoshop. I discovered these things called “actions” and from the moment I discovered them, that’s all I looked for online. Free actions, that is. I just thought they were the most miraculous things ever. I didn’t actually want to learn how to use Photoshop, […]

How to Duplicate & Repeat a Transform in Adobe Photoshop

I’ve got sort of an esoteric post for you today. What I’m learning about Adobe Photoshop is that there is really no end to what you can do with it. It’s a creative tool and it’s highly unlikely that any of us would ever run out of ways to be creative inside of it. Over […]

Modifying an Existing Selection in Adobe Photoshop

There is so much in Adobe Photoshop that revolves around making all sorts of selections. I’ve written about many instances on this blog and I’m sure I’ll continue that trend well into the future. Making selections can range from extremely simple to extremely challenging. Things can get complicated quickly, but Adobe has done a fairly […]

Creating an Artistic Black & White Photo in Adobe Photoshop

I was messing around in Photoshop the other day and I ended up with a really cool take on an ordinary image. I thought I’d share the process I followed with you today. It was so simple and fast that I figured anyone could do it. All I used was adjustment layers, a filter and […]

How to Adjust Video Audio Volume & Fade In/Out in Adobe Photoshop

I’ve been doing a lot of video work in Adobe Photoshop lately and I have to tell you that when it comes to what makes or breaks a video, it’s the audio. It’s strange, because it seems so obvious that the video has to be of some really great quality for folks to admire what’s […]
