Boys Toys

I was in the mood last night to create lesson 2 of Now We're Rockin'. Normally, you would watch the lesson first and then start on your own LO. Not me, I dive straight in. My screen is big enough the have the video running on one side and me scrapping along in Photoshop on the other. I really liked this lesson because I actually learnt something I didn't know yet, which was recolouring an overlay. The original overlay on this LO was blue and white. We learnt to recolour the blue to black and setting the layer property to screen, which ultimately meant that you only see the white parts. A really cool technique. The other main objective of this lesson was to use hot keys to save time, which is always a bonus.
