Fundamentals of Photoshop for Business Owners
Looking to create social media posts that stand head and shoulders above the readily available templates your competitors use?
Want to learn how to edit photos, add text, remove backgrounds, layer graphics, add shadowing and do other interesting things?
Then the Fundamentals of Photoshop course is for you!
Designed for beginners, this 90-minute session will talk you through the fundamentals of Photoshop to help you with all the basic functions you need to create stunning, original graphics for your business for use in print and online.
If you’ve driven yourself mad watching YouTube tutorials and trying to teach yourself, you’ll love the upbeat, enthusiastic and interactive format and the opportunity to ask as many questions as you like from your trainer – professional illustrator and designer, Patricia Shea.
Agenda
PART 1 – LIVE WALKTHROUGH
Patricia will present you with a graphic created with the incredible features of Photoshop. She will then walk and you’re you through the process live – from blank canvas to final design – describing each of the elements in turn, so that you can learn how to use the tools for your own designs going forward.
During this section, it is helpful for you to have your Photoshop open and running so that you can follow exactly what she is doing in real time, to help embed the learning.
COMFORT BREAK
PART 2 – Q+A WORKSHOP
Bring a simple problem you would like to solve during this session and Patricia will workshop the options for you to get the desired result.
Throughout the 90 minutes all relevant and short questions will be addressed. If your question is too complex to answer during the session, Patricia can help you with this during a follow-up call (see below for details.)
