What you'll learn

In this series of lessons, we'll learn how to quickly remove dust and do other processes to many images. Using actions to speed up our photo editing workflow, we can complete repetitive tasks quickly and easily. We'll begin this project by evaluating a workflow without actions and see how slow it is. We will then create our action, open a camera raw image, and set the color corrections. Then we will evaluate ways of content-aware fixing areas and recording them into actions.

Finally, we will put the finishing steps on our action and use batch automation to process all of our images. Software required: Photoshop CS5.
