Overview
Adobe® Photoshop® is the must-have image editing software for graphics professionals and amateur photographers alike. This comprehensive, engaging and professionally produced training DVD uses a logical, step-by-step approach to take the pain out of learning Photoshop® CS4 (including all the new features) and CS3. Photoshop® guru Mark Schlesinger takes you through everything from editing photos to creating complex, multi-layered designs and illustrations and, in the process, passes on a vast array of invaluable tips and tricks.
It’s easy to either progress through the complete course or jump straight to a particular topic. The DVD starts with the basics, including the toolbar, screen modes, and how to open and save documents, and then breaks down the software into key subjects such as "Working with Masks" and "Painting Tools". Each subject is then broken down into interesting sub-sections. For example, "Painting Tools" is sub-divided into "Working With Colour", "Fill and Gradients", "The Brush and Pencil Tools" and "The Eraser Tools".
All of the new CS4 features are covered in depth, making this DVD the quickest way to get up to speed on the latest Photoshop enhancements, including the new tabbed interface for improved usability, the revolutionary Content-Aware Scaling feature for perfect cropping, improved toning tools and all the other new and enhanced features. Plus, because nothing beats practical experience, you’ll be guided through everything from designing your own magazine cover to making a web banner through a series of practical exercises.

Was Stuck between jobs... Had No thoughts of what I wanted to do with Myself.. Thought my skills had hit a dead end... Until I purchased the CS3 / CS4 training for Photoshop Created by Mediaroots. With the simple layout and easy to listen to trainers, I immediately learnt skills which I thought I was too Old to learn.
Would Recommend this Product To everyone!
Would Recommend this Product To everyone!
This is a very informative DVD demonstrating everything you need to know about Photoshop. It is very thorough, demonstrating every tool, filter and effect one by one. The only slight problem I had with it was it was a bit...dull. The tutor has such a bland way of speaking, I found myself dozing off in places. And the volume keeps changing between chapters. But you won't get more detailed and complete instruction for your money. Hell of a lot cheaper than booking an official Adobe training course - and this way, if you don't get something, just rewind and watch that bit again. Recommended.
