1
Adobe's been really busy putting new features inside of Photoshop
2
and Photoshop beta right
3
now let's have a look at the five top new features inside of the current version of Photoshop beta
4
so there's some big updates happening to Photoshop right now we're in the Photoshop beta
5
and we're going to look at the five top new features
6
and the first of those features is the new spectrum interface
7
so it's supposed to be more high visibility and less clicking so if you look at it,
8
notice we get some nice kind of rounded corners here.
9
It's not as boxy looking.
10
When we roll over the different tools, they just pop open.
11
So we don't have to click on that little disclosure triangle anymore to see what tools are there.
12
And this is really great because I don't know about you, but sometimes I get confused with the new selection and removal tools.
13
And it's a lot easier to find them without clicking around.
14
You'll also notice that the interface is darker.
15
Now this is customizable.
16
If we go up under the beta settings here, we see have the ability here to enable the modern user interface.
17
If we turn this off, it's going to go back to the old interface.
18
The other thing we can do though, is even with this interface going, we could choose different colors.
19
So if you prefer a slightly lighter gray, or you even want to go to the lighter
20
Photoshop, you can change those up here as well.
21
Now, one of the options which was off by default was the modern color user interface.
22
Let's have a look at that.
23
So we're just going to click OK.
24
And then what happens is when we go to the color picker,
25
you'll notice that the recently selected colors or the recently used colors are now available at the bottom,
26
which makes it nice and easy to recall other colors that we've used.
27
Now when you click and drag in here, you'll notice it feels just kind of nice and smooth.
28
So one of the things I'm noticing here is the web safe color option is not here.
29
And if we turn this option off, go to the old color picker, notice the web safe colors.
30
It makes it easy to select certain colors because I know I like to use these grays a lot.
31
Another one I like to use this for is when I'm going into the oranges.
32
I can pick my corporate colors very easily because those are on the WebSafe.
33
That just restricts it to 216 WebSafe colors.
34
So if we go to community .adobe .com, go into the beta here, it says that they've updated 24 panels.
35
And you can see these are the panels that have been updated, and it's built on Spectrum.
36
And the thing about beta is we don't know for sure
37
when things are going to go into the main version of Photoshop and if all features will actually make it.
38
They could change.
39
That's why some beta for testing.
40
Now, one of the things that historically happens is during
41
Adobe Max, which is their annual conference, which is happening in a couple of weeks.
42
Historically, Adobe have dropped the full version releases.
43
So unfortunately, I will not be at Adobe Max this year.
44
And for those of you who also are not going to be there, I've got something for you.
45
Sam.
46
So what I'm going to be doing is I'm going to be doing a live stream
47
and I'm going to share with you an in -depth look at the new
48
Photoshop features announced at Max.
49
And if you want to know when I'm doing that, just make sure you join the newsletter.
50
I'll give you a link and then I'll send out a email to let everyone know
51
when we're going to do our live Sam.
52
So here's a little update on what used to be called dynamic layers, which I did a video on recently.
53
It's now called restyle layer.
54
So what we're going to do is we're going to go to the taskbar and we're going to choose the partner models.
55
By the way, GPT image two has been added and I actually generated this image with it.
56
So what we're going to do though, is we want to maintain a lot of things and just change some things.
57
So we're going to use Gemini 3 .1, which is not a banana two here.
58
We're going to do exactly the same scene, but winter and a hundred years later.
59
So hopefully this might show some degradation and also some snow.
60
All right.
61
So let's have a look at a before and after.
62
And we can see some cars and vehicles there, some power lines.
63
Oh my God, some cell towers.
64
That's actually hilarious.
65
So this is giving us the hundred years later.
66
So now we have two layers where the positions of things are the same, but things are changing.
67
So now what we want to do is we go up to the top here and it says generative restyle.
68
Now this tells us how many credits it's going to use.
69
This is expensive.
70
It uses 80 credits.
71
Let's click on it.
72
Why does it use so many credits in a create a video layer?
73
And if you have noticed videos for expensive to use in generative credits, and there's new features in this tool
74
that i didn't cover in my last video okay here it is
75
and now there's some new features that i'm going to show you
76
but first of all let's have a look and we can drag drag this through where we start.
77
and then we slowly progress until it's fully snowed out.
78
Now, the point of this is
79
that we're supposed to be able to find the point in time that we want for our image.
80
Notice the quality is lower, but here's a nice thing.
81
When we choose
82
Capture as Layer, it's going to create that layer, and it's going to create an enhanced version of it,
83
which is a little bit crisper than that low resolution.
84
So we can see that before and after.
85
And I can capture as many layers as I want at this point.
86
Now, when I last showed this to people, the question everybody was asking was, can I save the video?
87
And back then, no, you could not.
88
But now if we choose here and we go up under the options here.
89
Let's go to the beginning.
90
And we're just going to export this as a video.
91
And the nice thing about this is we don't have to wait because the video is already created.
92
So we don't have to wait for it to render.
93
And look at this.
94
There's our little video file.
95
And so this brings us to our next new feature, which is the ability to do a quick compare.
96
So if we click on the icon here, we see a before and after slider.
97
So this is quick compare.
98
So we We can drag this and see what it looked like before and after.
99
So we can compare different parts.
100
We can zoom in if we want to get very close and we could look at how things have changed.
101
So this is at 409%.
102
So of course it's going to look pixelated, but we can also change this from vertical to horizontal.
103
So if we want to look at the horizontal changes here, we can do that.
104
And of course, we can just do single view.
105
And for single view, we just click on it to show the before and after.
106
And this last new feature I'm going to show you, I recently did a video, but it's got a little bit of a change on it.
107
So let's just go to the background.
108
We'll hide the other layers and so we want to get rid of this building.
109
We're going to roll over to the remove tool and we're going to paint around here to remove.
110
So we can see the shadows still there.
111
We want to get rid of that.
112
We can move up.
113
Now this is in the taskbar and we can remove related elements.
114
Notice this little icons on meaning it uses a generator credits, but notice that we have the option here of clicking this little button,
115
which is going to create a new layer with the results
116
so that way it remains non -destructive and we're just going to choose remove
117
and we can see it got rid of the shadows as well
118
but just a little thing to be aware of look at the detail on the roof here yeah
119
it affects everything so one way I would suggest of doing this is to just invert a mask
120
so let's turn it on we're going to hold down the alt of the option key
121
and we're to click on the mask.
122
This creates an inverted mask, which is filled with black.
123
Then we're just going to choose white with a brush.
124
And now we just paint away from the area we want to get rid of.
125
There we go.
126
And now we can remove just that area here without degrading the rest of the image.
127
So don't forget to join me for an in -depth look at the new features that are announced at Adobe Max.
128
Join me for Sam.
129
Just look for the link to my mailing list.
130
I'll send out an email when I do that live stream.
131
And to see more about removing related elements with the remove tool, check out my video right here.
132
And if this is your first time watching me or you're new here, welcome to the cafe.
133
Don't forget to hit that subscribe button, ring that bell so you don't miss any of my new uploads.
134
And until next time, I'll see you at the cafe.

¿Qué es la Técnica de Shadowing?
Shadowing es una técnica de aprendizaje de idiomas respaldada por la ciencia, desarrollada originalmente para la formación de intérpretes profesionales y popularizada por el políglota Dr. Alexander Arguelles. El método es simple pero poderoso: escuchas audio en inglés nativo y lo repites en voz alta de inmediato, como una sombra que sigue al hablante con solo 1-2 segundos de retraso. A diferencia de la escucha pasiva o los ejercicios de gramática, el shadowing obliga a tu cerebro y músculos de la boca a procesar y reproducir simultáneamente patrones de habla reales. Las investigaciones muestran que mejora significativamente la precisión de la pronunciación, la entonación, el ritmo, el habla conectada, la comprensión auditiva y la fluidez al hablar, convirtiéndola en una de las metodologías más efectivas para la preparación del IELTS Speaking y la comunicación en inglés en el mundo real.
