Photoshop Crash Course
Just keep clicking through. There’s about 30 videos at 8 minutes a piece. By the end you’ll know Photoshop. I promise.
For a version of this class that’s about ten times better, using Photoshop CS6, check out The Photoshop CS6 Crash Course on Udemy. It’s $40, with a guaranteed refund if it’s not the most awesome thing you’ve ever witnessed.
In case you’re wondering – here’s what I’m about to cover:

Are we allowed to download these videos (so I can use them in class when I get bored => without internet) I’m just asking because I don’t want to get a 780 dollar notice ^^. Otherwise I will have to find another way to be able to get to them when in class

I LOVE you for this!!! Thank you
By all means Jos. With my blessing.
okay!!! Thanks.
Glad I finally found a photoshop tutorial which I like
I’m now trying different things based on what you teaches in your tuts + extra things I google and I never improved this fast
Keep up de great work

ps. can I give the videos to my friends (ofcourse with mentioning your youtube channel and/or this site). I’m asking this because I know for sure they going to ask me the vids.
Yes. Please tell as many people as you can about the vids. That’s why I put them out there.
Yeah. Pass em around. I made them to be seen. Glad you liked them.
You are awsome!! I was totally Photoshop disabled, and wow u really did a great job in teaching it, thanx so much.

It was pretty hard to watch. It sounds like you’re hitting your mouse with a baseball bat every time you click.
Couldn’t agree more. They get better by video 3. There were a couple of (hopefully forgivable) technical difficulties when I first was figuring things out in the first few videos.
Great collection of Photoshop tuts! We’re learning lots of new techniques … thanks for sharing.
Very Useful for a beginner. Thanks for sharing your knowledge.
I am new to photoshop and am excited to find your tutorial! Found you on StumbleUpon.
This Tutorials are very very useful for the beginners
Very useful post…thanks for sharing!
I’ve been consumed with trying to learn photoshop. I’ve seen sooo many websites that offer tutorials, but I appreciate how you have yours lined out. It’s user friendly and accessible. I have to start logging some time now, and get this stuff learned
Thanks for the post!
Very useful tutorials. thank you!
So I think that these are pretty good tutorials, but I am already somewhat well versed in photoshop. I hope you don’t mind me asking, but I don’t suppose you would know where to get a similarly useful tutorial to adobe flash? I am hoping to start learning about animation, and there are sparse resources for entering the adobe flash universe without a teacher (or at least this has been my experience thus far).
Thanks, Alex
Hey Alex – Can’t say I know of any particularly great place for learning Flash animation. http://www.Kirupa.com does some good things with actionscript and http://www.lynda.com/Flash-CS5-tutorials/creating-a-first-web-site-with-flash-professional-cs5/68387-2.html is one of the best tutorials I’ve seen for creating websites (although it is at Lynda, so they charge) – but as far as animation? Not sure. If you find something, I’d love to know.
Thank you so much for these! Hopefully I’ll learn enough to ‘Stumble’ my way through PS when I’m done watching them. Thanks again!
Is there a tutorial showing how I can take a black and white PDF floor plan and colorize it?
Hey Joe. Check out http://planetphotoshop.com/colorizing-a-grayscale-image.html – I spent about five minutes looking and found a lot of mediocre videos. This written one seemed to get the point across. In short – create a new layer, set the layer mode to “Color” and then paint on it in whatever color you want.The trick is in getting good selections, and choosing the right colors.
great tutorial, very nice, keep it up man!!
I’ve been looking for help to apply a star to my sun shots, candle shots, Christmas lights and other fun stuff. When I wanted to purchase a star filter the sales person told me that most programs have that ability to add a star, but I can’t figure it out?
thank you in advance ….. Sandra
Search for “lens flare” It’s located in Filters>Render>Len’s Flare . Although, to be completely honest, I’d shy away from that effect if I was you. I feel dirty even telling you – here’s a link: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eG9fRbZLqEs (notably, I haven’t watched this video)
Dewd, awsum!
thx duwd.
Pretty useful for the newbies like me..hmmm
This is one of the best crash courses i have seen. I am so glad i stumbled on it. I will be sure to pass it along thanks
Appreciated.
These tutorials are awesome. Some skip steps and are confusing but these are great. Thank you!
Thanks for providing these most inspiring and informative Photoshop tutorials Jeremy.
For quite a few years I’ve owned versions of Photoshop because I knew that someday I would like to use this application. Frankly, it’s just been intimidating as I didn’t have a clue about where to start (and the accompanying documentation and provided learning tools were just too daunting).
I was captivated by your 1st tutorial (because you didn’t waste time explaining all of the tools) and I’m looking forward to completing your course with great anticipation.
A chance click on Stumble Upon led me to your course and now there is a new enthusiasm for broadening my computer skills.
May you spend many a great nights putting cat heads on your friends bodies…or whatever you plan to do with it. Glad you liked it – and yay for Stumble Upon.
Wow, for people that want to learn photoshop, this is a great tool. Glad some one takes their time to show people how to use photoshop.
Thanks a lot for posting. Very very helpful.
This course is lame. Nice use if Photoshop 5 assets.
is there a tutorial that shows how to take haze out of landscape photos? I was in California and couldn’t pick the weather thanks! looking forward to taking your cs6 udemy course. Can I it download to take with me where there is no internet reception? Saw the response above but wasn’t sure if it was for the Udemy courses Thank you!
This looks like one such tutorial. The simple trick is isolate that section and then shift the cyan towards Red and add more contrast. Glad to hear you’re signing up for my Udemy CS6 course, and keep me posted if you have any questions at all while taking it. You should be able to download the individual videos. I made it as easy as I could to watch offline. Please tell me if you have a problem doing that, and I’ll look into it.
this is very important. thank you sir
A little bit different with adobe CS5, but I had got the same effect at the final stage of the project.
Agreed. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=O_4wy0ma2tg is a video I did comparing the differences between CS6 and CS5 (10,000 views so far! I love the internet). And even though there’s slight and major interface changes, like you said – the steps stay the same.
Great tutorial. I did something like this for CS4.
Awesome. Do you have a link? It’s great to me how many people are still learning things from this one, but makes sense as the fundamentals stay the same. I’m now selling one on CS6 that people seem to like over at Udemy – because each version is slightly different.
Just the thing I was looking for. Thanks to StumbleUpon I stumbled upon this page.
Old photos, prepare to be photoshopped! Haha
I so appreciate how fast you move! I actually find it harder to watch videos that are so slow – like just get to it – thanks!
Jeremy – I have just found your tutorials and plan to use them. I have CS 5, will it be much the same?
Jeremy – I have CS5, on a PC. I can’t find the auto button you mentioned in one of your first videos (sorry, my mind is trying to remember everything!), the one you click and then you just have to click on the pic and it goes from layer to layer. Also, perhaps I haven’t gone there yet, but trying to do a poster with several pics and I want to soften the edges, know it prob has something to do with the pixels but can’t remember. I’m sure you’ll cover it, however, I’m in a hurry trying to do something for Christmas…lol. Love the videos by the way, finding them extremely helpful. The one you mentioned that is $40, is that yours and is it something we can download to our computer for future reference?
Hi
I hope to receive some advice being a total novice learner for Photoshop and I was recommended your CS6 course for building up the skills. May I know how will I be able to practice what I learn? Are there any practical simulations or submissions as a part of coursework that the students can submit to see if they are on the right page and if they have any questions how can they redress it and with whom?
Thank you
It’s all simply videos to watch. I have over 10,000 students, so it would be hard to be hands on with everyone with back and forth examples. With that said, please drop a comment if you’re at all confused at any point in any of the videos, and I’ll be happy to help as I’m able.
