DesignProVideo Photoshop CS4 101 - Core Photoshop CS4
Learn valuable tips & tricks that will quickly & efficiently make you a Photoshop CS4 master (7.5 hours tutorial)
For decades, Photoshop has been the industry-standard software used for computer graphics and photo manipulation - and with the release of Adobe CS4, it's now better than ever! In this comprehensive 5-hour tutorial-video, you'll learn everything you need to know to confidently make and re-touch amazing images with Adobe Photoshop CS4.
Veteran trainer and certified Adobe product expert Jim Kanter demonstrates important tips and tricks for working with layers, applying Photoshop's built-in effects to change and manipulate images, using Paths & Masks, working with Erasers & Brushes, and so much more. Along the way, you'll learn important workflow techniques for retouching photographs to improve contrast and color, while removing unwanted artifacts from your images.
As a personal note, I (Martin Sitter) have been using Photoshop for close to 20 years. I've used it almost daily in the process of writing books, creating DVD-Videos, or making graphics for things like this web site. As I watched this tutorial I was blown away by the amount of stuff I never knew about Photoshop.
Jim Kanter is without a doubt one of the best educators in the Nonlinear Educating roster, and I can confidently say that if you're interested in getting the most out of Photoshop, you need to watch this tutorial. It is incredibly detailed, has a logical flow, and IMHO is one of the best titles we've ever released, either at designProVideo.com or macProVideo.com.
This is a comprehensive tutorial, but you don't need to watch it all. Use the search functions and detailed menus to quickly find important topics - that's the essence of Nonlinear Educating using N.E.D.!
