Description
Adobe Photoshop: A Complete Course and Compendium of Features is your comprehensive guide to mastering Photoshop, whether you're retouching a photograph, creating designs for social media, or combining images into composite creations. This book will teach you everything you need to know.
This second edition has been fully revised and updated to cover the newest features of Photoshop. It includes a complete Course with a new set of projects and lessons from the curriculum of Adobe Certified Instructor Steve Laskevitch. You'll learn the necessary procedures to use Photoshop effectively and professionally.
As you work through dozens of step-by-step lessons, you'll explore Photoshop's rich feature set in practical contexts and learn best practices for optimal workflows. Lesson documents and their assets are available for download, allowing you to use your course creations as starting points for your own projects.
The updated Compendium provides even greater depth of knowledge, serving as an in-depth reference to rely on long after the course is complete. Its eight easy-to-access sections help you uncover more of the "how" and "why" of Photoshop. With extensive cross-references between the Course and Compendium, the two parts of the book perfectly complement each other.
Learn step-by-step how to:
- Set up an ideal workspace
