Course Description:

'' You will learn to use several tools for selecting parts of images, and will move, duplicate, and resize. Learn to use layers, and to apply layer effects and filters to create special effects, including lighting and texture effects. You will also use painting tools and blending modes to create shading effects, and will perform adjustments to contrast and colour balance. Also will learn to save images in different formats.

Basic knowledge of computers and software usage.


Labs to be provided by the trainer



Differentiating raster and vector graphics; identify Photoshop® environment elements; and navigate in the Photoshop® environment. Select appropriate resolutions for different image and output types; and resize and crop image areas. Use the Lasso, Marquee, and Magic Wand tools to select image areas; and use alpha channels to save and load selections. Create and manipulate multiple layers to composite images easily. Apply blending and shading effects to create realistic composites. Identify the image mode characteristics, channels and bit depth; identify attributes that distinguish grayscale mode from bitmap mode; and identify attributes that distinguish each colour mode. Select colours using the Colour palette, Colour Picker, and Eyedropper tool; use Photoshop’s painting tools to create artwork or to retouch photographs; and use the Clone Stamp tool to duplicate parts of an image. Add and format text within an image; apply layer effects and filters to create special effects including lighting effects and textures; and merge layers. Modify the brightness, contrast, colour balance, hue, and saturation of images. Save images in file formats for use with other applications and the Web.

Use the Background Eraser, Quick Mask mode, alpha channels, and layer masks to isolate image areas quickly and accurately, even for images with indistinct edges and very fine details. Create clipping masks to use one layer’s contents to mask another’s; and create vector paths as tools for selecting images, for creating transparent areas in images to be used with other applications, and for drawing shapes. Create colour swatches, gradients, and patterns. Distort type by warping it, wrapping it on a path, and transforming it; create layer comps to quickly compare multiple versions of a document; retouch and restore old damaged photographs; and simulate natural media painted effects. Automate multi-step processes with actions and batch processing.
