I just love the masking/painting ability in Ps, it's so fun to play with light! Patrons can download the final Photoshop Project file to see it all in detail: www.patreon.com/posts/project-file-103865270 (Patrons Only)

Yes to more Photoshop tutorials! I'm a klutz at Photoshop and this opened my eyes to different methods and possibilities!

Hello,Premiere Gal! Tips and tricks. My respects!
-
OK now it's the absolute best thing ever that you're in Adobe Premiere Pro with your awesome tutorials that you're really that famous now!!!... I don't know how we go about this but is there any way we could start a campaign and maybe get signatures or whatever so that to celebrate this they put your image on the box that you first see when you click on the icon on your taskbar to open it up the splash image..... Number one(tee hee) I have no idea why they put a guy on there it's weird and number two(tee hee)... It would be so awesome to see your face instead!!!!!

I was waiting for this tutorial !!

Saludos desde México, Gracias

Thank you!

Great tutorial! DO you already have one that's similar, but for Premiere? Adding a glow around the subject (or whatever) in a video would be helpful for an upcoming project.
-
This is perfect and great timing. I am doing a lot of gaming space content and need better way to make stuff glow. Thank you Premiere Gal :D

-
Why wouldn't you have just used the Inner Glow layer style?
-

Thank you for the tutorial, but it's strange how Photoshop is so complicated when we compare to Canva, for example. All effects and tools are so easier and faster to use on these web apps, Adobe really needs to work on it.
