Join Gavin Hoey as he demonstrates how to set up a simple flash system to duplicate a 50-year-old negative and take it to a new level using Photoshop.

After he shows you how he copies a 50-year-old negative, follow as Gavin Hoey opens the image in Photoshop CS6, where he first turns the negative into a positive with Adobe Camera RAW before using the new video features of Photoshop CS6 to create an amazing moving image from the original still photo. It’s called “re-animation” and it the result is very cool.
