Photoshop Post Processing Techniques

$99 (April 27th, 2011 from 7-9pm eastern time)

This class will be a LIVE online training class where I will walk you thru post processing techniques for your images. We'll discuss basic tips to bettering your images in the post editing process as well as review a handful of actions and some of the effects certain actions have on your images. Each student is asked to submit 5 images for the class that I will in turn possibly use to demonstrate how I take an image straight out of the camera and complete it within the post processing stage. If you've ever wanted to learn certain photoshop steps or see how a photographer edits from point A to point B with their photographs, this is the class for you. Geared toward beginner photoshop users. (Photoshop or Photoshop elements required) Maximum of 15 students. Register your seat now while there are still openings. To register, CLICK HERE.

Do you have a new camera that has tons of bells and whistles that you don't know how to use but would love to learn? Do you have a blog that you'd like to learn how to take better photos for? Are you interested in photography but never know where to begin or how to get started? Do you have a desire to possibly start a photography business someday and just need help learning the basics in the meantime? Are you a Mom just looking to take better photographs of your children? Are you stuck on the auto mode feature but would love how to shoot in manual? If you answered yes to any of the above, then this is the course for you. The class is offered as a 4 week-instructor led-informative journey - conducted online - at your leisure. Once you've paid for and reserved your seat in the class, you are granted access to a private forum where everyone in the class learns together. You check in as you wish throughout the 4 weeks - reviewing and learning the lessons posted by the instructor. You have an open forum where you are able to ask any amount of questions you'd like and in turn receive a prompt response from your instructor. This open but yet private student forum also allows you to chat and connect with other students who are participating as well. Each student will have one assignment to complete and turn in each week for a critique via your instructor. There is also an area where you can upload and share your photos with others in the class while seeking praise & feedback from them and critiques from the instructor. Angie will teach you the power locked inside your DSLR and steer you toward how to get off the "green auto mode" button and how to begin unlocking your cameras potential and your creativity by learning to shoot in manual mode as well as the other modes offered on your camera. She will discuss those features and when best to apply them in varied shooting environments. Here are just a few of the many things you will learn while enrolled in the class...

1) Getting tight and close with your images

2) Uncluttering a photograph

3) Framing your images in camera
