Boggie (Csemer Boglárka) is a Hungarian singer. Her song "Parfüm" has a particularly intriguing video. Her video image is "improved" into a magazine-ready image of a celebrity in real time during the song -even while she sings!
On the one hand, it's an illustration of how enthusiastic Photoshop treatments take all the reality out of its subjects to make them adhere to an expected standard of beauty. We've seen that before. On the other hand, the video itself is a technical wonder. And the song is nice, too! -via Viral Viral Videos

It all depends on whether you know what you are doing. The videos you see of people using Photoshop are usually sped up a lot, but someone who uses Photoshop a lot can make it LOOK easy. It is VERY difficult for someone like me.

very cool. I know nothing about photo-shop and the like. are those tools and touch-ups actually used in such software (for pictures, not video), ie that easy? I wonder if the video production involved real touch-ups like make-up, lighting, etc.

It's sad that they had to invent fantasy video retouching software because real video retouching software couldn't live up to their impossibly high standards. :D
