Layers go to the core of working in Photoshop. In this video, you'll learn how to best use layer effects. While some people dismiss layer effects as cheesy -- their name is synonymous with drop shadows, after all -- the ubiquitous FX are in fact one of Photoshop's best functions.

Layer effects let you assemble credible compositions, render simple layers in dimension, and add ambient lighting. I can't imagine working in Photoshop without them. After you watch the video below, you may feel the same way. If the embedded video on this page won't display in your Web browser, you can watch it on YouTube.
