LESSON 1: BASICS OF IMAGE EDITING
Traditional Analog Image Editing- known as photo- retouching, using tools such
as an airbrush to modify photographs w/ any traditional art medium
Graphic Software Program- can be broadly, grouped into vector, graphics editor,
raster graphics editos, and 3D modelers, are the primary tools with which a user
manipulate, enhance, transform images.
**
Image size- resolution should not be confused w/image size, which is also
expressed in pixels
Colormode- types of colors you will be using in your image CMYK & RGB are the
most important of these modes to be familiar with
Newspapers- used dramatic images to tell their stories. Image if the hook that
draws the reader’s eye to read the words.
- break up text, brightens the page and sets the mood for the article. Website use
photos in the same way, to catch the readers before they navigate away from a
page, to draw them on to the reading content
1. Cropping
2. Resizing & Compression
3. Correcting
4. Sharpening/ Softening
Cropping- make a huge different to it’s impace. When you cut out distracting
background, the subject of your photo stands out better.
Rule of thirds- divides the image into thirds, horizontally and vertically and then
aligns the subject w/ one of the intersecting lines
Resizing & Compression- resizing & compression to the optinum size for the use
you intend it for
Size= actually height and width that your image will be displayed as
Resolution= no.of dots per inch (dpi) that appear your images in final form
- this might be because the light that was not consitent w/ the white balance
setting on the camera
Sharpening or Softening- last of the global connections that are often applied to
digital images
-digital sensors
Digital Date Compression- used to reduce file size and save storage space
-may take place in the camrea, or can be done in computer w/ the image editor
-preffered resolution:
Images= 300
Printing= 150
-the typical monitor is set to display somewhere around 800x600 pixels. Means
that 1” by 1” 600 dpi image would fill up most of the screen
Layering- whenever you add text to an image in photoshop, the text appears on a
new layer
-often times, when you find yourself frostrated w/ photoshop, it is because you
are trying to perform operations on a layer that is not currently selecter
- you can “merge down” layers to consolidate them, and “flatten image” to force
the entire contents of the image onto ONE LAYER
~Software provides many image editing features for raster (pixel- based) images
as well as vector graphics
~Uses a layer- based editing system that enables images creation and altering
with multiple overlays that support transparency
~Can act as masks or filters, altering underlying colors
~Actions include automatian features to reduce the need for repetitive tasks
~An option known as Photoshop CC( Creating cloud) allows users to work an
content from any computer
~Been the industry standard image manipulation program for so long that is name
has become a verb. It is common parlence to say that an image has been
“photoshopped” or even just “shopped”. Shopped in this context, is synonymous
with edited, manipulated, or faked.
