Description Description:
Realistic clouds and waterfall video animation tutorial for Photoshop CS3 and above...

How to:
This tutorial is about how to add life to your photo by merging 1 photo and 2 video loops together.

Tips:
You can always buy similar video loops from stock photo or video sites by searching the terms:"seamless clouds" or "clouds loop" or "cloudscape" etc.
If they are not seamless or too long, you can always use the classic After Effects fading in/out trick to make them seamless and short (~3-5 seconds)...

Would you like to try it?
Download all the original files used for the tutorial here: [link]
... and create you own animation!

As always: is much appreciated : )

Special Thanks:
Thanks you all for the DD!
It is nice to finally have one in a different category,
specially when you get it for helping others...

I really love this. I just recently received Photoshop CS5 and it's my first time playing around with it. I've only had Photoshop Elements 5 for the longest time. ^,^ I will be sure to post something on your page of my first animation. (:
