Course Goal / Objective
Building upon the foundational knowledge gained in Graphics and Animation I, this course aims to teach the advanced features of Adobe Photoshop. Students are expected to perform professional-level photo retouching, photo manipulation (composition), advanced layer and masking techniques, and produce basic animations using the timeline panel.
Course Content
Advanced selection and masking techniques (channel masks, vector masks, quick mask mode), layer styles and blending modes, smart objects and smart filters, advanced color correction (curves, levels, camera raw), photo retouching and photo manipulation, text effects and typographic design, actions and batch processing, frame-based animation through the timeline panel, and GIF production.
Course Precondition
Prior knowledge of the Photoshop interface, basic tools, and layer logic is required.
Resources
