Photoshop Tutorials

A lot of web design and development relies on you being able to capture images. This may be a logo for a customer or a picture of a product for your own use.

In the course we provide different solutions for this however there is a great free product called Jing.

Jing is a product that can capture either a still image of anything on your screen or a recording of up to 5 minutes of your screen. Wouldn’t it be handy to show your clients how to do something, rather than just trying to explain the steps. Once you start using screen capture you wonder what you did without it. It is great for taking a picture of a website, Google earth images, or application instructions.

Jing is made by Techsmith who makes the best and most widely used professional screen capture applications. This free version is easier to use and has most of the features that you would need as a teacher. Jing is also Mac or Windows compatible.

Photoshop CS2 adds a new transformation type to the Edit > Transform menu called Warp.

With the new Warp command you can transform layers into a variety of predefined shapes, or use the custom option to push and pull your image around according to an invisible grid.

All this works right in the document window, so you don’t need to learn a new dialog box like you do for the Liquefy command. The Warp options are similar to those found in the type tool — arc, arch, bulge, shell, flag, fish, wave, rise, fisheye, inflate, squeeze, and twist.

In Adobe’s example, you can see how a layer was warped to fit a can. Layer masks and the multiply blend mode make the transformation appear even more seamless.Here is one I did using warp.

Have a play and have fun. A great tutorial can be found here.

Lots of times we need something like this shirt file to show a customer etc. Here is a free copy of this T Shirt in psd format so you can make your own.

With the proliferation of web videos, it would appear that many have no shame producing and distributing crappy videos. While if this is a video of your dog Charlie catching a frisbee while jumping off the dock at the lake, that is one thing.

But if this video is a business video that is promoting, demonstrating, or giving a tutorial on how to use your product, that is entirely a different matter. From the viewers prospective if you don’t care about using a crappy demonstration video why would your attitude when you created your product or service be any different. If you as a business are providing a quality product or service then tell the world about it in with videos…but do it right! By just implementing a few production details, you too can create high quality web videos.
