Synopses & Reviews
This critically-acclaimed interactive training program from Peachpit and Adobe Press offers exceptional quality high-definition video to teach the workflow fundamentals of Adobe Photoshop CC and Adobe Lightroom CC, specifically with the photographer in mind.
Experienced instructor and photographer Mikkel Aaland presents the basics of moving Lightroom files to Photoshop and back. You’ll learn to perform photo retouching, how to add dynamic type to your images, and fix camera shake. You’ll discover how Photoshop can bring your portraits and slideshows to a new level. You’ll also learn how new panorama and HDR features give Lightroom a boost. With this video you’ll discover how the two programs, Photoshop and Lightroom, work in tandem so you know when to use what tool.
The video is wrapped in a unique interface that allows you to jump to any topic and also bookmark individual sections for later review. The unique “Watch and Work” mode shrinks the video into a small window to allow you to work alongside in Adobe Photoshop and Adobe Lightroom as you view the video. Project files used in the lessons are included on the disc so you can practice what you’ve learned. At the end of every lesson, you can test your knowledge by taking interactive quizzes.
