Ok so I have photoshop CS5, would the options shown here be worded different, or in a different location?

I'm learning the use of 3D movement and keyframing in my lesson for Audiovisual Technology. It's very easy to handle though but I still have issues with setting the keyframes D: (or the camera)

DanSyron In reply to Azurelly [2012-12-02 21:36:11 +0000 UTC]

camera rigging for the super deep 3d stuff is a pain. I had to do that for the Card picture. it's more tricky than anything, but once you get it its like "BAM' you can do all the things ever.

Azurelly In reply to DanSyron [2012-12-02 21:46:05 +0000 UTC]

Indeed it's true somehow. Although it was the first time to use AfterEffects with the camera this is complicated.
Generally I start learning to use several Adobe softwares (e.g. Photoshop, AfterEffects, InDesign). I needed them for my study so ...

DanSyron In reply to FriskeCrisps [2012-12-02 21:24:30 +0000 UTC]

lol well it is still a 2d object, not actually 3d, just a 2d object in 3d space, so it couldve been, but it wouldnt have looked right

wow very technological o:
but with photoshop you can work on the laptop
with mouse and Wacom Bamboo or a Genius tablet.
You also have the Paint Tool Sai it's more easy for work, but does not give the same results as the PS
