TRANSCRIPT
Layer
• Photoshop layers are like sheets of stacked acetate. You can see through transparent areas of a layer to the layers below
Masking
• A layer mask in Photoshop is used to control a layer's transparency. It's great if you wish to reveal or hide portions of a layer using a mask
Layer Style
• Layer styles are special effects that can be quickly and easily applied to individual layers in Photoshop to drastically change the appearance of something in very little time. They can be preset, customized, or even saved and used for later.
Shape
• The Shape tools and Line tool are used for drawing different shapes and lines in either a normal layer or a shape layer. The Custom Shape tool allows you to create custom shapes by modifying predefined shapes or defining your own shapes.
Filtering
• Photoshop’s Filter Gallery is basically a one-stop place for working with filters in your documents. In the Filter Gallery, you can browse through many different types of filters, apply them individually to your image, or even stack them on top of one another like you would with layers.
