Actions are one of Photoshop’s most powerful features. Unfortunately, getting started with them can be confusing. In this course you’ll learn how to build your own actions starting with two different sharpening actions.

The first action resizes your image, sharpens it, and then adds a watermark—with you in control at every step. The second creates three sharpening layers so you can selectively and creatively sharpen different aspects of your image. Every image you make needs some sharpening, and these actions make it easy and repeatable.
