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...

That's what I figured since the interface looked very similar to CS5. I will definitely have to try this

Can you save it as a gif?

πŸ‘: 0 ⏩: 1

detrans In reply to DarreToBe [2011-08-02 16:45:20 +0000 UTC]

Yes you can export it as an animated .gif too,
but before doing it is recommended to change the image size (50%)
and/or give a less frame/sec (for example 10-15) to avoid big file size.

You get a much better result (better quality, less file size)
if you convert the exported .mov into an .swf (Flash movie)
