RESTORATION
OF BLACK & WHITE AND COLOUR PHOTOGRAPHS
This Video DVD
was recorded using Adobe Photoshop CS, but it is also valid for any version of
Photoshop or Photoshop Elements.
This
CD contains over 2 hours of high quality video and covers the subject of restoring
a 70 year old badly damaged photograph and also the restoration of a badly faded
colour photograph. As usual Barry has made sure that these videos are not technical
exersizes and you can follow along with the tutorials using the full resolution
original files provided by the author. The DVD also includes one of Barry's super
slide shows and the full details of what software you need to make the slide show.
One of the best ways to learn image
editing is to restore and old photograph. It is very rewarding and we end up with
an image that your friends and relations will actually want to see. Best of all
is that we can use the same techniques we learn here in our more creative work,
not that this isn't creative itself.
The
contents of this 2 * CD set are almost too numerous to mention, but they include:-
Levels,
cloning, use of the healing brush, selections, feathering, copying objects, pasting,
transform tools, layers, layer masks, toning, blending modes and so much more........2
hours and 16 minutes of video laid out in nice manageable sections.
The
image below is the one we start this tutorial with and it does look almost beyond
repair.

However,
as you can see with our finished example below it is very much repairable and
probably better now than the original ever was. Our DVD takes you through every
technique you will ever need for restoration.

Colour
images can also be repaired with a few simple techniques
