L/O: to know basic photoshop tools
To be able to practice manipulating photos using tools
Basic info & tips• Pixel based program• Good photos =
– Good lighting– High resolution is best
• Always make sure you save as JPEG/TIFF• Photoshop can’t fix really bad photos
– i.e. really underexposed (really dark) will be really grainy – can’t fix this• Tools are to AID, when they become too much – photos will look fake
and unrealistic – don’t let special effects become special DEFECTS – there is a fine line!
