    Great show as always,

    As a suggestion, can we some how have a time posted on here as to what time the live show is every other week? not just for this show but for all shows. I think we all know the grid is at 4pm est , but I can never catch the live shows of PSUTV or Dtown. not on G+ all the time to get notifications there.

  44. Robert K. Gerstel says:

    Cory, don’t know if it was intentional but the end result of you tutorial kind of reminded me of the effect used in the Sherlok Holms movie where they took scenes from the movie and made them look as if they were old prints or newspaper articals. Loved it. If the effect is in your book I’ll have to go back thru it because I totally missed it the first time thru. Thanks and keep up the good work, I always learn sooooo much from you guys.

  75. jeff hopkins says:

    great show, keep them coming.

  76. Joseh says:

    Great show today. I particularly enjoyed the tip about using the color selection tool to select other than colors. For example, picking out just the shadows, or just the midtones. Selecting a skin tone (and filling with white), and selecting shadows (and filling with black) gets some really cool dramatic effects. Did the skintone fill with white, over a black background for a really dramatic effect.

    One thing though. The podcast downloaded in iTunes truncated to around 19 minutes. I had to watch the re remainder of the episode on your website. Just thought I’d let you know!

  77. Larry Nienkark says:

    Rocki’in How about some cool stuff on video in cs6

    Thanks. Gary

  85. Gaf says:

    Photo Booth Matt looks like he could be a character in a Toy Story movie!

  86. Gerry Prost says:

    Can we get a tutorial on the new 3D features in CS6.

  87. Rick DeNatale says:

    Great show as usual.

    I watched most of it on my iPad with the downcast app, but for some reason the iTunes feed cut off in the middle of Corey’s demo, so I came to watch the rest here.
