I used shadow settings V3,H2, O50, B5, Color Black on ALL elements, layers, text and the tube except for the mask layer.
I also sharpened every element and tube I had to resize to get the quality like the original size.

1 Open Template and delete the copyright.
2 Now I want you to resize the filmstrips, filmstrip background and the Scree Queen wordart to 575x575.
3 Open, copy and paste as a new layer the kristiw_hollywoodstartlet_clapboardframe_ts.
4 Resize and position towards the center of the template. Use my example for reference.
5 Move this layer below the wordart so it isn't covering any of it up.
6 Now click on your rectangle layer.
7 Open, copy and paste as a new layer your choice of paper.
8 Resize it to the canvas size.
9 Click on the rectange layer again and go to Selections>Select All>Float>Defloat.
10 Click on your newly added paper and go to Selections>Invert and hit delete on your keyboard.
11 Go to Selections>Select None and delete the original rectangle layer.
12 Now repeat Steps #: 6-11 for all supplied layers in the template.
13 Add a gradient glow- width 3 and color white the wordart so it stands out more.
14 Click on your kristiw_hollywoodstartlet_clapboardframe_ts.
15 Open, copy and paste as a new layer your choice of paper.
16 Get your magic wand tool and click in the opening of the frame.
17 Go to Selections>Modify>Expand and change it to 15.
18 Click back on your paper layer and go to Selections>Invert and hit delete on your keyboard.
19 Go to Selections>Select None and move the paper layer below the frame.
20 Now open your choice of 4 tubes. (2 if you are not doing the animation).
21 Position the main tube to the right of the canvas.
22 The additional 3 tubes- you need to resize so they are smaller and fit in the frame.
23 Now move the smaller tubes to be above the frame background layer.
24 Now click back on the frame background layer and go to Selections>Select All>Float>Defloat.
25 Click on your 1st small tube and go to Selections>Invert and hit delete on your keyboard.
26 Now repeat Steps #: 24-25 for each additional small tubes you are using.
27 Open, copy and paste as new layers any desired elements from the kit.
Use my example for reference. I added a gradient glow to some of the elements.
28 (ONLY DO THIS NEXT STEP IF YOU ARE NOT ANIMATING) Click on the filmstrip backgrounds layer.
29 Go to Effects>Plug-ins> I.C.NET Software>Filters Unlimited>Bkg Designer sf10 III>Solid Solar Fabric.
30 Apply the default settings and hit apply.
31 Go to the very first layer and open, copy and paste as a new layer your choice of paper.
32 Open your mask and minimize it.
33 Go to Layers>New Mask Layer>From Image.
34 In the drop down window for Source select WSL_Mask221.
35 Make sure Source luminance is selected and hit ok.
36 Go to Layers>Merge>Merge Group.
37 Resize the mask layer to be a little bigger.
38 Get your text tool and font choice and type out your name at the top of the canvas.
I used colors: foreground: #000000
background: #e3c4d6
I also used font size 40 and added a gradient glow- width 3 and color white.
39 Add copyrights.
40 If you are not doing the animation, resize and save as jpeg.

If you are doing the animation, follow these steps:

41 Now click on your filmstrip background.
42 Duplicate twice- giving you a total of 3.
43 Click on the 1st one and go to Go to Effects>Plug-ins> I.C.NET Software>Filters Unlimited>Bkg Designer sf10 III>Solid Solar Fabric.
44 Apply default settings and hit apply.
45 Click on the 2nd one and go to Go to Effects>Plug-ins> I.C.NET Software>Filters Unlimited>Bkg Designer sf10 III>Solid Solar Fabric.
46 Leave the default settings but hit randomize and apply.
47 Repeat Steps #: 45-46 for the last one.
48 Now hide both duplicated layers.
49 Go to your small tubes and hide the last 2.
50 Copy Merge and go to Animation Shop.
51 Paste as a new animation.
52 Back in PSP, hide the 1st filmstrip background layer and the 1st small tube.
52 Unhide the 2nd filmstrip background layer and the 2nd small tube.
53 Copy Merge and go to Animation Shop.
54 Right-click on your frame and select Paste After Current Frame.
55 Back in PSP, hide the 2nd filmstrip background layer and the 2nd small tube.
56 Unhide the 3rd filmstrip background layer and the 3rd small tube.
57 Copy Merge and go to Animation Shop.
58 Right-click your current frame and select Paste After Current Frame.
59 Select All and go to Animation>Frame Properties and put 85.
60 Resize and save as a gif.
You are all done!!!!
