Workshop description:
This is an in-depth introduction to Photoshop CS5 for photographers. You will learn the most commonly used commands and techniques to improve images and also how to utilize some of the more creative effects. This course will be of more benefit to you if you have access to a computer with Photoshop inside and outside of the class in order to practice the skills you will learn.
Using Photoshop CS4, we will take you through the initial considerations of how to save images and explain image resolution – and explain the most efficient Photoshop workflow.
We will explain file types and how to use the powerful Camera Raw plug in for quality pictures.
The basic tools and procedures such as Cropping, using Levels and Curves to control contrast and other tools to achieve colour balance and control will be fully explained. We’ll also look at image sharpening and the use of Layers and Quick Mask – two of Photoshop’s most powerful tools.
This course is an ideal introduction to Photoshop for those who find learning from books and videos difficult. It is designed for those using the full version of Photoshop (CS,CS2, CS3, CS4). Users of Photoshop Elements may find parts of the course useful but Elements is not covered specifically.
