Sometimes you have treasures right under your nose. Sometimes those treasures go unnoticed because you get used to them being there, doing nothing for you or it just does what it usually does.
Hello Photoshop. I met you when you were CS2. I used to animate frame by frame with you. Turns our you do movies. And you are all grown up Photoshop CC. Extended even. I made the video below with Photoshop CS6 Extended, shot in my Nikon D5200 at high key. At 1:34 is my favorite part. I overlaid bokeh effects that dance above the glitter and the Swarovski crystals.
I highly recommend taking a class or two that expands your knowledge beyond the usual retouching and color correction. Below are some fun classes you can take and learn about Photoshop.
