- [Instructor] There are over a hundred filters that ship with Photoshop, and they're all located underneath the filter menu. Selecting some filters like neural filters and filter gallery will display several different filters within a single workspace. Other filters are applied individually, such as the adaptive wide angle and camera raw as a filter, and have a number of different adjustments and options for that filter. While others are grouped into categories such as blurs and sharpening filters. I like to think of filters as belonging to one of four primary categories neural filters, practical or utilitarian filters, artistic and content creation filters. The neural filters are experimental filters intended for creative photo editing scenarios. These filters are assisted by artificial intelligence and machine learning and create completely new pixels to fill in content in an image. They can help soften skin, hand color, and restore old photographs and transfer a style or a look from one image to another. The practical filters include solutions for sharpening and blurring images, reducing noise, correcting lens distortions, and removing jpeg artifacts and images. The artistic filters apply creative effects such as oil paint effects, brush strokes, create chalk and charcoal drawings, even create mezzat and halftone effects. Finally, the content creation filters help us to render new items and effects such as trees and flames, clouds, and fibers. In the next few videos, we're going to take a look at some of the more commonly used filters. I've also created a document with over a hundred examples of filter effects created in Photoshop. You'll find them in your exercise folder.
