Basic Photoshop

Level 1

 

If you’re new to digital photography, or if you’re self-taught and want to fill the gaps in your knowledge, an expert guide is an invaluable resource. In this hands-on beginning Photoshop class, you’ll learn how to take advantage of Photoshop’s  fabulous bag of tricks as you set the foundation for an easy, efficient digital workflow. You’ll learn to organize, size, and save your images, work with RAW files, use layers, make tonal corrections, retouch, and much more.

Learning Photoshop will literally revolutionize your photography. If you’re fed up with the limitations of entry-level programs like iPhoto or suspect you’re doing things the hard way and want to take the next step, this class is a ideal choice.

Both instructors are Adobe Certified Photoshop Experts.

Students may use the digital lab for five hours free of charge during their enrollment.
