While TAing a course, I was asked to make a GIF tutorial using Photoshop.

Last time I use photoshop for any moving image applications was probably 3 or more years ago, so I was pleasantly surprised that Photoshop has now included some video drawing features. The video layer is a single layer that can be draw on every frame, although it is not an animation-exposure equivalent, it is still infinitely better than having to make every frame a layer.
