In this Photoshop video, Steve Caplin shows how to add a spin effect to add movement to a still photo. He quickly combines smart objects, masks, and the spin blur effect to create the action and demonstrates how easy it is to make changes to the effect afterwards.
This video is an excerpt from Steve’s Photoshop session at CreativePro Week 2018. To find out more about this amazing annual event, check out CreativeProWeek.com.
