  38. Colin Fisher-McAllum says:

    Great show as always, and the star-field tip is just what I needed for a current project… thank you Pete.

    Excellent show guys. I have a shorter shortcut for filling a mask with black – Opt (or Alt on Windows) click on the mask icon at the bottom of the Layers panel and it will be filled with black. I think I actually learned that one from either Scott or Corey.

  93. Gene Kimball says:

    Good show. The comments by Erik Valind on the LAB color profile makes me wonder if he has been studying the concepts by Dan Margulis. Puppet warp, filters and content aware fill are all great tips as well. I see I am not the only person suffering from CR-.
