Stitching together scanned artwork

Join Deke McClelland for an in-depth discussion in this video Stitching together scanned artwork, part of Photoshop CC 2015 One-on-One: Mastery.

- [Instructor] Alright, I don't know…if you remember this drawing from Chapter 25…of the advanced course.…It doesn't really matter if you do.…It is an ink drawing, I believe, from the '60s…that was created on a big piece of drawing board,…as we're seeing right here.…Problem was, we have this really crappy scanner,…here at the studio.…And so, I had to scan it in two passes.…This guy right here.…And then, this one, which is obviously upside down.…And these are completely unmodified files, by the way.…And so, what we need to do is stitch…these scans together using the Auto Align…and Auto Blend commands here under the Edit menu.…

Step one is two right-click inside this upside down image,…using the rectangular marquee tool.…And then, choose Duplicate Layer.…And then, I'll go ahead…and change the document to Fort Bragg-1.…And I'll click OK.…Alright, now, I'll go ahead and switch back to that file.…And you can see we now have two items here,…both of which are currently named Background.…I'll go ahead and double click on the actual background…
