Photoshop induction session 1



Today was my first Photoshop induction.
Considering I have never used this program before, I don’t really know much about it. The few things I knew were from our past brief. (Making a new document, changing the size of the page, cutting, copying and pasting).


*Go

*Computer
*BW_WKS201-16
*Users
*Shared
*Graphic Design P5

We were told to use the same images within the class.
We had a special folder created for this lesson with a variety of different posters (movie adverts).

1.     Open Document seperatly on a new tab on Photoshop.
2.     File -> New
Name it- A3 Poster
International paper A3
297 Widths
420 Heights
300 Resolutions
3.     File- Open- Graphic Design P5 – select an image or more
4.     Select - all – Edit – Copy
5.     New Document – size we want (A3)
6.     Insert all images being used on to A3 Page
7.     New layers -> Double click to change name
8.     Re-Layer
9.     Edit -> Free transform + shift = Change size
10.Image- Image rotation -180· -90· -90· or Edit transform
11.   Eraser + Left to erase + Right to change size 12. Spot healing Brush Tool -> Erase Text from Image.



After this I began to experiment on another movie image ‘Mean Girls’

And moved to trying to insert peoples faces on to the image by removing their body and hair, rotating the faces and experimenting on their skin tones.
