Adobe Photoshop CS5 Essentials
This two-day Adobe Photoshop CS5 Essentials course is designed with a balance of hands on practical exercises, demonstrations and reviews. Using the latest software on Mac and PC platforms each course is delivered with training material or reference for the delegate to take away. The Photoshop CS5 Essentials course starts from the program basics and quickly builds knowledge and confidence in how to navigate the application and use the tools to create, edit and save bitmap files. This involves both creating bitmap images from scratch and editing existing image files. Delegates will investigate ways to create
images including painting, numerous ways of selecting, layering, manipulating and correcting images.
Please note, the course is run using Photoshop CS5 Extended software - if appropriate, and if time allows some of the more specialist functions of this package will be covered.
Adobe® Photoshop® CS5 delivers breakthrough capabilities to help you create images with impact. Refine your images with reengineered photography tools for removing noise, adding grain, and creating high dynamic range (HDR) images. Get precise results when making complex selections. Remove any image element and see the space fill in almost magically. Paint with naturally textured brushstrokes and realistic color blends. Also work fast with cross-platform 64-bit support and dozens of other time-savers.
