The Vid's:

Whilst I can do an effective job with Adobe PhotoShop and bring out some good results, I have good knowledge in a narrow field of uses, which is true for most people anyway. These are a selection from a variety of people, who have some good ideas to share.

< NEW Basic Post Processing. A Winjeel.Com original (19mb, medium quality)

Covers curves, levels, and contrast; the basic adjustments all photographers need to do. Also see here on YouTube. For a screenshot of the detail being discussed, click to view here.

< Fixing Over Exposed Images. From IceFlowStudios

Uses some very basic adjustments most photogrpahers use for minor adjustments, but never for the extreme examples used here (these won't look natural). Uses Levels, and Highlights

< Chroma Keying. From IceFlowStudios

Effectively isolating the subject from the background using Colour Range, and Expand Selection.

< Orton Effect. From bobgcambell

Using levels, layers, and quick mask

< PhotoShopping heads onto bodies. From xxDarkAwpxx

Using layers, quick mask, and replace colour

< Invisible clothing effect. From luv2help.

Using selection, layer masks, artistic plastic wrap filter, blending modes

< Layer effects. From FlashAcesDesign

An essential tutorial (highly recommended). Using layers, cutting out with polygon lasso, layer effects

< Changing hair colour. From ItsSchafe

Using curves (with colour channels), layer mask. This is recommended as his use of curves is a great example. Also see this one that uses quick mask.
