How to Create Special Effects in Photoshop
There are many ways to create all kinds of striking Special Effects using Photoshop. Digital art has been taken to a new level with Photoshop, and with every new version of Adobe Photoshop, the potential to produce even more eye catching images with just a few clicks of a button. With Photoshop, you can instantly create an aged effect, and motion lines, color effects, glow, blur, or make a photograph look like a drawing. Photoshop can also help you create all kinds of cool text effects to a photo and even remove unwanted objects and figures from a scene. The following includes some excellent ways to spice up a dull photograph, create special effects and other ways of taking advantage of photograph.
One of the simplest effects you can use to alter a photo in Photoshop is Colorization. This effect can be found under the image tab, in the Adjustments menu, with hue and saturation sliders. By clicking the small box at the bottom of the dialogue box, you can use to Hue Slider to create a unified color over the whole image. This can be great for creating monotone backgrounds behind a central figure. It can also help wraith trying to match one images color scheme to another. To select an image from a white background and save the shadows underneath it (important for figures in motions, especially those who are jumping), use the luminosity of the image. In order to do this use the magic Lasso and quick mask tools to roughly select the desired areas.
Next use the float command to create a new layer of your selection, leaving the old copy in place below it. You can than save the selection to the channels palette. Than turn off the floated copy and create a new layer by pressing Ctrl+Alt+tilde (~), we can select the luminosity of the image, essentially its brightness. However we wanted to select the shadows, the opposite of brightness.
Another good effect for creating a dramatic image is turning the image into text. To do this move your selected image to a new layer.Then creates the text that you would like to mask into the image on a text layer. Heavy and bold type styles are best for this, as they provide the greatest amount of image area. This will make the text easier to see and read. Ctrl+Click the type layer to select the area of the type, and then change to the original image layer.
Lighting effects are in a great demand for Photoshop Images. These can be accessed through the filters menu. One very popular lightening effect is the lens flare, which allows the user to create the look of a ball of light on their image. This effect and the spotlight effects can be used to add magical effects, new light sources or other lightening changes to an image.

ActionScript follows a defined syntax, or set of rules. Earlier versions of action script provide limited interactivity.

Animation Standard

Animation Standard
Students and professional having animation background will definitely love to read this blog. In this blog I have given a brief overview of what exactly Animation is, types of Animation etc. Animation is the course of action by which we see unmoving pictures or still picture to be in motion or in simple terms it means giving life to lifeless objects or characters. You can animate anything a character, objects, still images etc. Besides the most commonly used animations, i.e. two-dimensional (2D) and three-dimensional (3D), there is also clay animation, sand animation, puppet animation, vegetable animation etc. 2d Animation is the creation of animation in 2d environment, Two-dimensional images are shallow in appearance i.e. it includes length and breadth only while 3d Animation is the creation of moving pictures in a three-dimensional digital environment i.e. it includes length, breadth and depth, they look more real. Animation is the core part of film making. Film making is further divided into three stages i.e. pre-production, production and post- production.
Animation has a wide scope in India and abroad it opens the door to film industries such as Hollywood, which is the world of special effects and imagery for films. An Individual must be able to work like a professional animator, he /she must be a diploma holder and should have taken a professional training from a Reputed Animation Institute like ADMEC Multimedia Institute as a strong portfolio of work or show reel is must before entering into Animation Industry. ADMEC Multimedia Institute is offering two types of advanced courses in Animation i.e. Animation Master and Animation Standard.

In brief, both the courses are in great demand and have good scope ahead.

Difference between Adobe Photoshop and Adboe Fireworks


Difference between Adobe Photoshop and Adboe Fireworks
Adobe Fireworks and Adobe Photoshop are among the most widely used applications for web designing but designers have always been wondering about the positive and negative aspects of these two as it is quite difficult to decide which one is better. If you take a close look at the two, you can obviously perform all the tasks in one way or another in both the applications. You can edit graphics, pictures and web pages in Photoshop and Fireworks both. Here we will take a look at the both to determine which one is more suitable under which circumstances.
Photoshop as the name suggests is basically a tool to edit graphics and images. Primarily it wasn't created to handle graphics and photo editing but with the passage of time and a heavy involvement of graphics in web designs paved the path for addition of web designing features and options in Photoshop. Fireworks, on the other hand, is a tool primarily developed to deal with web designing. As a general rule, Photoshop can be used for web designing but it is better to use Fireworks since it is light weight and handles the web designing tasks better than Photoshop. However you can use a combination of the both as well to handle edit and create web graphics.
According to me Adobe will make Fireworks a special application to design graphics for web, while Adobe Photoshop will be useful for Image Editing, Lay-outing, and Post-Production Tasks in future. Adobe has strengthened the Photoshop with more than ever 3D Tools and Menus. It indicates that Adobe is empowering Photoshop as a future application for After Effects not for web as Adobe hasn’t provided any noticeable changes and tools for web designers.
My analysis says, how one will manage graphics related task in Photoshop if ‘Save for web and devices…” option get removed by Adobe in coming years from this software. The day will come when Fireworks will be used by each and every designer in the world.

Difference between Adobe Flash and Flex


Difference between Adobe Flash and Flex

By now almost all the Internet users and the web designers must have heard about the Flash Software or application. This blog is especially meant for Web designers, Flash developers, Action script Programmer who are working on Flash and flex program, in this blog I have drawn a brief comparison on Flash and Flex Program. 

Flash was originally developed for and used as a medium for vector-based animations, Flash is limited to design and create timeline based animations and if one want to create dynamic application or visualization services, it would be a very time consuming task in flash while Flex is based on components, Flex is a highly productive, free, open source framework for building expressive web applications that deploy consistently on all major browsers, desktops, and operating systems on runtimes. Flex is a component oriented framework with various client side and server-side technologies. While Flash is a timeline centric application not a framework unlike Flex.

As such these courses does not require any prerequisite qualification, a person having web designing background or an individual familiar with Adobe Photoshop , Adobe Illustrator or Fireworks software can pursue with Flash course but to pursue with Flex Application one need to have knowledge of Flash , ActionScript 3.0, and OOPs basics, etc. 

Institute like ADMEC Multimedia is giving highly advanced and professional training for Flash, ActionScript, XML, Components in Flash, and Flex programs, also the institute is offering weekend classes for professionals who can’t take classes on weekdays.

Want to read more about Flex, Its versions, and uses etc. I would recommend you to click on the following link: http://www.admecindia.co.in/flex-training-institutes.html
