Introducing Photoshop
Title Screens for My Favorite Things
You will introduce your video and each category with a text screen - we will use Photoshop to create highly legible text that also looks great. Before we add some "special effects" called Layer Styles, we need to make a text "corral" and choose fonts and sizes that are appropriate for this specific job. We'll start off with our Intro and then move on to the 3 category Titles.
STEP 1
A) Start Photoshop and click "Create New"
B) Select the "Film and Video" tab and choose HDTV 1080p, the first option
C) In the top right, rename from "Untitled-1" to
220829 Titles for My Favorite Things
D) As soon as it finishes opening, use "File --> Save As" and save it to your Project Folder
E) Look in the toolbar on the left to select the (T)ext (T)yping (T)ool (look for the fancy "T" in other words)
