From compositing multiple images into a single composition, to manipulating existing photos, to creating entirely new digital artwork from scratch, Adobe Photoshop is one of the most universal and powerful tools in the professional graphic design arsenal.
The eight projects in this book were carefully designed to reflect the types of assignments that you will encounter throughout your career in graphic design. After completing these projects, you will know how to:
- Define appropriate resolution settings for a variety of distribution purposes.
- Use a variety of techniques to separate complicated images from their backgrounds.
- Composite raster images, vector objects, and text elements to create a unified composition.
- Use Photoshop’s powerful controls for correcting colors, adjusting lighting, and repairing visual damage in your images.
- Create unique artistic effects using many of Photoshop’s filters, adjustments, brushes, and the newly expanded set of 3D tools.
- Manipulate the pixels in your source imagery with content-aware scaling, improved options for increasing image size, and the new camera-shake reduction filter.
- Work with built-in 3D objects to extend your images beyond two dimensions.
- Use valuable time-savers such as styles and actions to streamline your workflow.
- Prepare images for web publication by adding animations and defining image slices.
- Save files with appropriate settings and formats for a variety of print and digital media.
