Another Gift Idea

 

If you or someone you know is itching to get a pressure sensitive tablet, but you don’t want to spend several hundred bucks on an Intuous, worry not, Wacom recently released their new Bamboo tablets. These are really cool. I just got one myself and it is really nice. It’s got a very slick design and features programmable hot keys, as well as other useful functions. The Bamboo Fun even includes a cordless mouse. The best part is the price. The Bamboo retails for about $70. It’s a great purchase for anyone wanting to get more familiar with using a tablet. Also, it’s fairly small and is very easy to travel with. Find out more here.

Create A Composite Layer

If you have a multilayer composition and you
want to apply an effect to all the layers at once, don’t flatten the layers–use a composite layer instead. Hide the layers you want excluded, and press Shift-Command-Option-E (PC: Shift-Ctrl-Alt-E). A new layer will be created at the top containing a merged copy of all the visible layers.

Another option is to create a new layer at the top of the stack and make it active. Command-click (PC: Ctrl-click) each layer you want to include to make those layers active, as well. Press Option-Command-E (PC: Alt-Ctrl-E).
