More Information
This
download contains 22 minutes of video and a PicturesToExe Demo of the images and
technique we cover.
The picture in picture
technique is often one we turn to when we have portrait
format images that we wish to include in a landscape
format slide show. However, it can often be used
just for creative effect. While we will be working
in Photoshop the techniques we describe can be carried
out the same in Photoshop Elements. We cover the
crop tool size technique and also describe how to
make a preset for use again and again in our digital
AV.
We also show how
to use rulers and guides if you want your picture
in picture technique to have some order. We work
in layers and explain how to reduce the inset images
to the perfect size. We also introduce you to a
new tool in Photoshop called "Smart Objects"
which is perfect for our AV picture in picture technique.
We demonstrate layer
styles to further separate our inset images from
the base image. We include lots of other tips and
shortcuts along the way, including a great way to
select a layer without even opening the layers palette.
We even introduce shortcuts in PTE.
We program our demonstration
images to music in PTE using the Time Line to create our demo slide show
The
best way to see just what this downloadable video covers is to download the slide
show demos first. These are the subjects we cover
