Video link: Content-aware Fill in Photoshop CS5

Posted by James - 25/03/10 at 08:03:07 am

It’s well over a year since CS4 came out and introduced some cool new content-aware transformation tools (see an earlier post about content-aware scaling in CS4) and with the release of CS5 it turns out we’ll have another awesome content-aware trick added to our toolkit.  Check this video out:

I just don’t know what to say; it’s totally awesome.

A reason why Photoshop CS4 kicks ass

Automated removal of non-static elements with Photoshop

Once you’ve got that, Photoshop can automate the alignment and image compositing, to remove all those pesky people from your shot.

Psdtuts (Photoshop-document tutorials) hit the scene a little while ago on digg, and I’ve had it on my RSS subscriptions ever since. Off like a dynamo with the Photoshop tutorials, I’d certainly keep an eye on it – looks to have potential to be another Smashing Magazine. (i.e. A big hit)

Now, my knowledge of Photoshop is ok, certainly on-par with those I work with, but Psdtuts? I’m a complete novice against them. I tried to do a couple of their tutorials as a demonstration, but they didn’t turn out so good. They make it look so easy, but I guess you need some mystical, innate knowledge if you’re going to compete.
