This video will discuss briefly how you would produce your own action scripts which you can apply to an image or series of images. Creating Actions is quite a vast area so please treat this as a starting point on how to produce Actions. Okay, so what the heck are "Actions"??? They are a series of commands that you perform on an image that you may wish to repeat in quick sucession. An example of this is if you wanted to watermark and copyright a large amount of images automatically. Normally you would have to do a series of steps in each image. With Actions you dont! What you do is "Record" your actions required once, then you have the commands stored so you can use them over and over again. So with this video sit back and watch how you would create actions and how you would apply them to multiple images. Less

Dec 9, 2011 - Wouldn't the common denominator be resizing and setting a batch for landscape and one for portrait?

Aug 10, 2011 - Hi, I am afraid my knowledge of actionscript stems from the recording of actions and have not come across anyway of indentifying size of image to determine size of watemark to apply. Thats why on the video I suggested that you would create perhaps the same actionscript multiple times for different resolution of image. I.e. have a 800x600 script and a 1024 x 768 script, then bundle all your images of a certain size together and perform batches that way.

Aug 10, 2011 - Very nicely prepared! Is there a way to set the scale of the watermark based on one of the axis' of the source image?

Jul 20, 2011 - Thank you for your reply. You have some very interesting tutorials on your channel which I shall definitely look at.

Jul 7, 2011 - Hi, I am sorry I have dissapointed you in this case. This video as per its title is to explain actions & batch processing inside Photoshop. I used watermarking as the example, this is NOT the tutorial on how watermarking works. If you wish to know this then there is another video on my channel that explains the water marking principal in detail. Please view that post and let me know if you have any outstanding issues.
baabaagreensheep Says:
Jul 7, 2011 - It would have been useful if you had included instructions on how you created your own watermark template!!!!!! No point me watching the video without knowing how to do this.
