Laying down beats with Bert Monroy

Just like accountancy, Photoshop is not the greatest of party-starters; even if you're in the scene (for want of  a better descriptive), it's difficult to maintain the interest factor much past 3 or 4 sentences.

The production team at Revision3 have obviously noticed this, and, in a fit of insanity (or drugs) decided: what a podcast video of Photoshop techniques really needs is a drum and bass soundtrack. Now I have nothing against a little musical accompaniment but this simply Does Not Work. I found myself periodically wanting to shout down to the unseen teenager to turn their music down; I couldn't hear what the nice man was saying. FFS! 

Perhaps if he were to rap the technique as a Gangsta Rhyme; or better still, and more fittingly, a hoedown patter call: "take your stylus in your hand. Grab the pen tool; make a bend." They could take that on tour. Marvellous. 

Now I'm off to watch Delia Smith prepare chicken in a basket at a Metallica gig.
