Photoshop CS3 Extended allows you to edit video and animations. Also, you can convert an existing video into a Smart Object and apply filters to it. This time we're going to give a video a vintage feel and mock it up inside an old TV screen.



Final Image Preview:

Before we get started, let's take a look at the video we'll be creating. Click the screenshot below to view the final video. As always, the layered Photoshop file is available via our PSDTUTS Plus membership.



Step 1:

Photoshop CS3 Extended has the useful feature of editing videos and animations directly inside of it. This time I'll show you some of the basics of video editing in Photoshop. Before getting started, you must know that Photoshop can edit any video as a Smart Object. This opens endless possibilities to create amazing outcomes to our videos by adding effects, filters, and more.

Let's begin, for this tutorial we'll start by creating a new blank document 640 pixels by 480 pixels. You can choose the Preset Film and Video and change the Width value. Go to Layers > Video Layers > New Video Layer From File, and search for any video in your computer.

I used this video, which was filmed about a year ago. It's of my friend Ariel rafting the EspĂ­iritu Santo river here in Bolivia. As you can see, the video layer is on your Layers Palette right now. Convert it into a Smart Object (Right click on the layer miniature's name and click on Convert to Smart Object). Then name it "Video." Now, to set up your workspace, go to Window > Animation to show the Animation tools.



Step 2:


First, we'll edit the Levels of the "Video" layer. Click on Create a New Fill or Adjustment Layer > Levels in the Layers Palette. This will create a new Levels Adjustment Layer for the entire video. Use the following values.

Then add another Adjustment layer by clicking Create a New Fill or Adjustment Layer > Photo Filter. Set the color to #704302 and the Density to 100%. This way the "Video" layer turns into a nice sepia tone. Also, as you can see, each layer added turns into a new layer in the Animation window.
