Beginning
Photoshop
This class is comprehensive--all
the basics and enough information to keep an intermediate user happy
too. Focus on efficiency, using layers and working flexibly--teaching
you good working habits to start from! This class is best as a 4-day
but can also be pared down to 2 days for users who are somewhat familiar
with photoshop.
Intermediate
Photoshop
The intermediate class is all
the beginning vital topics at a much faster rate--PLUS a bunch of
great time saving tools and techniques for added products and sales.
This is my most popular class and many repeat it because there is
so much information jam-packed into it!
Advanced
Photoshop
For those who
already are jammin' in Photoshop, you need to learn the "somewhat
boring stuff" that can really push you into the realm of speed,
control and creativity. This class is Intermediate/Advanced level
and gets into the nuts and bolts of Photoshop. Using the preset manager,
making your own brushes, programming actions and batch actions, using
quick mask, working with layer sets, Style catalogs, custom desktops,
using dual monitors, using the browser, using automated features,
web galleries, pdf presentations, smart objects, and any other special
requests! We focus on fine tuning your tools and settings for maximum
efficiency and also get deeper into the many creative applications
for masks and blending modes, to name a few.
Album
Layout and Design
The intermediate
class focuses on making Coffee-Table-style Albums and taking the drudgery
out of the time-consuming mechanics of getting the pieces together
and lets you focus more on the creative end (what you're good at).
We make actions and presets to speed up the repeatable tasks and learn
tricks to manuever lots of images, layers, text and graphics quickly.
You will learn ways to create without getting bogged down by too many
options, and learn to be more free with your composites and not agonize
over design. The goal is to be fast and efficient enough to make fresh,
unique albums and still make a decent hourly wage! It IS possible!
Retouching
like the Pros
The intermediate
class focuses on facial retouching and enhancement, but also
includes image alterations too. Learn to retouch like the professionals
do (fast and efficient), set up your tools so you don't have to remember
two million settings, and prevent the number one most common error
in retouching: OVER-DOing it! You will learn how to use adjustment
layers to fix skin discolorations, fix glass glare, photogray glasses,
etc, and trim bodies with liquify, smooth out rough or blemished skin
and enhance eyes for drama and impact. This class is a MUST for all
professional photographers and will pay for itself over and over.
Composites
for Marketing, Seniors, and Weddings!
Face it--Composites
get people's attention. They are awesome for Marketing pieces, Senior
Add-ons, Wedding albums, Baby panels, you name it! We NEED to know
how to "throw one together real fast"--anytime we need it!
This class gives you all the speedy tips to make it go together fast
and we save them into templates so they are quick to make again and
again to save time and make money with them over and over! This is
a fun class and you will walk away with your own marketing pieces
and templates ready to go!
