Did you know that @Photoshop has a Conditional Action feature? (Use the Actions panel burger menu to find/insert it in your Action) So, you can detect some properties of your document (1st screenshot) and run if/else alternative Actions 😊 In this example (2nd screenshot), I'm nesting 2 Conditional Actions to find and apply different actions to the 3 possible orientations: Landscape, Square or Portrait. Super useful combined with Photoshop Actions API: developer.adobe.com/photoshop/api/… 😉

A lovely little feature in the After Effects Beta: Proportional Scrubbing. Instead of changing values layer by layer, you can animate multiple layers at once. In the tutorial I also use it to build a quick 3D parallax scene. youtu.be/xTgu7ebCmr8

This episode of Batman: The Animated Series (1992–1995) was animated by Tokyo Movie Shinsha, the studio behind Akira. No wonder this scene feels so close to Tetsuo’s transformation.
