Photoshop is the most common and useful of all the graphics programs. It can be used for everything from cleaning up photos to creating collages. In this intensive for beginners, students will leave knowing about removing blemishes on photographs, burning and dodging, adjusting contrast, brightness, saturation and color cast. They will learn how to work with layers: create them, reorder them, and merge them. They will learn how to use text with images, how to draw, what a path is, the difference between vector and raster. They will learn how to collage images with clean-cut edges and smooth blending. They will learn how to manipulate an image through distortion, perspective, rotation, inversion, and warping. They will also learn basic key commands.
