Whether you are creating for print, the web, video, or all three Adobe Photoshop can prepare artwork in such a way that you can leverage a single .PSD file across the entire workflow. Plus, you can combine artwork from Illustrator in a way that allows you to leverage all of the flexibility of you work in that application. Tim showed us:
- How to leverage layers and layer comps to maintain maximum flexibility with your original image
- How smart objects combine with images to produce a hybrid image for quick, yet robust visualization projects
- What Camera RAW files are and how you should be using them
- Ways to leverage Adobe Bridge to manage your assets from any Adobe product
- How you can then use these projects for print in InDesign, the web in Dreamweaver, interactive projects in Flash, and for video in After Effects
