Video2Brain - Photoshop Artist in Action : Uli Staiger's Powered by Nature

Maybe you’ve never seen hot air balloons floating by carrying giant rocks with cows on them, but Uli Staiger has...in his head, anyway. In this remarkable workshop you’ll see how he went about making his vision a reality using Photoshop. You’ll follow along as Uli stitches together four images to create the panorama that will serve as the background, adjusting the color and lighting and painting in clouds. Then he’ll show you how to add the balloons, rocks, and cows using Smart Objects, layer styles, custom brush tips, and more. As a special bonus, you’ll see how to add 3D to the image using Photoshop CS4 or CS5 Extended.
