Comic Book Halftones in Photoshop

Whenever I want to produce a half-tone effect in Photoshop, I invariably have to look up how to do it. It should be more straight-forward than it is, but we don’t use half-tones in images as much as we did in the pre-digital days.

Below is a good tutorial for the halftone effect that’s been online for a number of years now. (HT Dylan M. for finding this.)

Survivorman

We are using the theme of survival for our Digital Literacy online course this fall. It didn’t take too much searching around on YouTube to be reminded of the Survivorman series.

As contrasted with the Survivor series, which is more of a survival game show with contestants, the Survivorman show is more about the concept of man versus nature. Of course, all media are created and the same holds true of these two programs, even though one appears to be much more realistic with the scenarios than the other.

The above video clip was added to this post by using the “embed” code that YouTube provides with every video that permits the practice of embedding. Not every content creator wants their videos to be made available on every website.
