This week’s tutorial is really cool and really quick. The effect can be achieved in no time at all. In just a few steps we can turn a normal photo into an exciting design. Here we will utilize layers and filters to jazz things up a little. We will also make use of Photoshop’s powerful brush engine. Just by changing a few settings you can have a custom brush capable of creating a variety of different effects. Combine that with layers styles and you end up with some really cool results. Check it out.

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 another hot tutorial. It’s a nice way to single out and highlight a subject in a group. I applied it to a few shots of musicians and bands and it livened up the images dramatically. You’ve taught me so much.
