Food Photography Video

This little 4 minute video will give you all kinds of great tricks on what the pro’s do when shooting food. I especially like how they used the little mirrors to reflect light onto the food. They also use a few tricks to get a dappled sunlight look as if it’s coming in from a window, yet it’s all shot in studio.

For those of you who love to play with Photoshop, check out this list of my favorite .PSD files. A .PSD file is basically a template that has multiple layers you can customize to create buttons, sample iphones, etc. Most of these should be compatible with Photoshop CS4, but I just ordered my upgrade so am unable to verify.

The Green Planet

Green Planet .psd Template

This one will be very popular with everyone talking about going green. Download Link

Skateboard Template

Skateboard .psd template

This is probably one of the coolest templates I have run across. For those of you who want to design your own skateboard layouts, this will be a perfect template for you. Download Link

 

PSD Demonstration

Some of the best ways to learn a program is to dissect what others have done. This .PSD demonstration gives you all the layers of the image, so you can see how it was constructed. Files like this are a great way to learn Photoshop. Download Link
