Introduction to Photoshop: Video Tutorial #1

Level: Beginner

I’ll start this video tutorial series with an introduction to some of the basic features of Photoshop CS6 (CC is quite similar).

Features:

1. Introduction to the general workspace of Photoshop CS6
2. Customize panels with a brief discussion around the tool bar
3. Demonstration – how to do light editing on a photo in order to manually get rid of red-eye
4. Working in layers and the hierarchy
5. Introduction to Layer Adjustments
6. Affect lighting with anExposure Layer Mask
7. Tips – saving the photo in correct formats and the important difference between .JPG and .PSD

I move through a lot of information rather quickly, so be sure to stop at any time, backup and review again. Let’s get started…
