    It is said that G.I. Joe: The Rise of Cobra is better than Transformer, one and two add up.
    Exactly, not that I am saying Transformer suck, I like the film anyway, while G.I Joe just exceeds that. I didn’t expect so much for the movie, but what present to me now is a movie of precise temple, smart suspense and of cause, all kinds of thrilling visual stimulation.

    Thanks you very much Frank.

    Nicely done demonstration on this video and the one on creating an animated background. We’ve become frustrated trying to find and purchase backgrounds and graphics for our business videos for training and promotion that need to look a little more professional (also frustrated with finding background music … but you didn’t help with that one..yet!) and we’re considering PhotoShop for “rolling our own”. Your video showed that it might be possible to develop the custom items we want/need ourselves. I hope you make money off of such well-done work. Thanks again… really appreciate it and will look for more of your videos.

    Love your tutorials on Adobe Products.

    Thanks! I

  28. MJBrouwer23 said on — September 14, 2009 @ 10:33 pm

    Just was wondering why your menu was looking different for layer styles. Seems like it has more options then what I currently have? New to using Photoshop so I didn’t know if it was because your using a Mac and I have a PC! LOL

  29. bighead kyle said on — September 17, 2009 @ 12:47 am

    man i really like your videos. i have seen a few of them and they are great. you explain things well. one question though. what program are you using. i am using PS cs4 but i dont have that 3D thing. is that some other adobe product. i really wanted to finish this tutorial cause i had a great idea with it. thanks for the help

  30. Corey Barker said on — September 17, 2009 @ 8:51 am

    You probably have the standard version. The 3D features are only available in the Extended version.

  31. bighead kyle said on — September 17, 2009 @ 2:16 pm

    @ corey yeah i jsut have the regular. well its something called cs4 portable that i dl’ed for free. i jsut wish i could get the extended for free somewhere

  37. LynTaylor said on — December 28, 2009 @ 4:11 am

    Hi there! I’m just loving your Tutorials. I’m still relatively new to Photoshop and was having some trouble with regard to the gradients. You manage to place them at the top and the bottom on the same layer. How do you do this? Mine will only do either the top or the bottom. I also noticed you came in from the sides on the 3D background layer. Can you share please??

    Cheers!

  40. JP said on — May 13, 2010 @ 1:03 pm

  45. Chuck Zimmerman said on — October 20, 2010 @ 6:40 pm

    Mr. Barker,

    I am a member of NAPP and have CS 5. After watching this Video on Animation, I want to learn more. Do you have a new one for CS5 and if so please send information. Maybe there are videos through NAPP. Whatever … I want to learn more and I like your training style and delivery.

    Regards,

    Chuck Zimmerman

  46. CJ Hallock said on — October 21, 2010 @ 9:46 pm

    I’m going to be honest either I’m really stupid or tired cause I’ve been fighting for the last 30 minutes to get 30 seconds into the video but I can’t even do the gradient tool for my text… I’m having the worst luck with this I’d love to figure it out but it doesn’t look like its going to happen tonight :( but it does look cool!! :) I’m running CS4 on Mac OS10

    Any Suggestions… and yes I’m somewhat new to photo shop or atleast when it comes to the techie stuff….

    C.J.

Premium Video Tutorials From NAPP


 

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).
