In this week’s video we take a look at using the new 3D features in Photoshop CS4 Extended to create interesting design elements. While some may think that 3D in Photoshop is only the domain of 3D artists, there are a number of features that Photoshop artists may find very useful. Unfortunately, these features are not available in Photoshop CS4 Standard. If you haven’t yet upgraded to CS4 and are not entirely sure whether you want to go with Standard or Extended, give this video a look to see one of the many possibilities with Extended. Here’s the link.

Corey shares another way to get a cool 3D light beam effect.
Corey finishes up the Olympic-inspired design that he began last week in Part 1.
The Olympic-inspired tutorial will be coming in two parts. Stop by next week for the conclusion to this video.
This week’s tutorial deals with creating masks for complicated images by using channels.
You can open RAW images in Camera Raw right from Bridge in Photoshop CS3. This frees up Photoshop to continue working on your files while they’re being processed in Camera Raw. Just select one or more images in Bridge, Control-click (PC: Right-click) on them, and choose Open in Camera Raw. This will open the image(s) in Bridge’s Camera Raw rather than Photoshop. You can also use the keyboard shortcut Command-R (PC: Ctrl-R).

Thanks for the intro to 3D. Since I still have standard CS4 I wasn’t aware how easily cool three dimensional designs can spice up 2D output. On the fence regarding an upgrade, though. Priorities rule.
