Video description
This innovative product from Adobe Press combines an
incredible 10 hours of high quality HD video instruction and a
full-color printed reference to teach the fundamentals of Photoshop
for Photographers, plus the latest features in CS5, as well as
Camera RAW, image management in Bridge, masking, creating HDR
images, making complex selections and color corrections, image
retouching, and more.
Adobe Certified Instructors Tim Grey and Mikkel Aaland present this
video training with an easy-to-follow style that makes it fun to
learn. Tim Grey is regarded as one of the top educators in digital
photography and imaging and Mikkel Aaland is a pioneer in digital
photography and author of ten books.
The video is wrapped in a unique interface that allows the viewer
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 the student to work alongside in the
software. Project files used in the lessons are included so
viewers can practice what they've learned, and interactive review
questions help reinforce freshly gained knowledge.
