Basic PhotoShop

6 week Zoom Course

In this 6 week Basic PhotoShop Zoom Class, you will receive a pre-recorded Zoom video each Monday morning beginning June 1st. Then on the next evening, Tuesday nights at 7:00p.m., we will zoom live to review and to answer questions or to give one on one instruction on what is covered. Each Zoom (either pre-recorded or live) will last approximately 30-40 minutes. By having the pre-recording available before class, I feel confident students will grasp the concepts easier.

This will be my first time teaching through Zoom, and using the share screen option to share my screen while I am working in PhotoShop. There are bound to be glitches and I can promise you a few stumbles along the way, but I think this will be an exiting opportunity to learn during this unprecedented time.

We will begin by learning the basics of LightRoom. Lightroom is a program that will be included with your subscription purchase of PhotoShop through Adobe Creative Cloud. I highly encourage students to download both of these programs with their $10/month subscription. Lightroom is a very powerful program to help you learn proper workflow from camera to computer. We will use LightRoom to adjust our images for exposure in photos, create black and whites, sepia, and other easy effects for our photographs. Lightroom will only be covered briefly the first night. This is not a Lightroom Course, but having a brief introduction is helpful before using PhotoShop.

Then, we will quickly move on to PhotoShop to cover the basics of sharpening, cropping, image adjustments,  basic retouching, and other basic features of Photoshop to get you started using PhotoShop to easily edit your photographs and get them ready for printing.

 Patrice will go over Basics such as:
  •  Importing Your Files from a Card Reader
  • Creating Unique Folders and Saving on an External Hard Drive
  • Importing images into Lightroom
  • Basic Adjustments such as Exposure, Cropping, Vignetting in Lightroom
  • Exporting to Photoshop and saving images as a .jpeg
  • Learning Photoshop workspace and toolbars
  • Opening Up Files in Photoshop
  • Crop, Exposure Adjustments, Sharpening
  • Basic Editing Such as Retouching Wrinkles and Smoothing Out Skin
  • Getting Started with Layers to do more with your images

What to bring:

  • Your laptop loaded with Lightroom and Photoshop. If you are paying the monthly subscription fee for Photoshop *$10 a month, then Lightroom is included in that bundle.
  • Patrice will provide the images for all students to work on together from processing the files to editing them as jpegs in Photoshop.

This will be a hands on class and we will be working individually and together to learn how to take the images from a RAW state and the workflow designed to edit, and prepare the file to ultimately present to a client, or print.

Audience
