Learning to use Adobe Photoshop Elements 6



In todays lesson we had Mrs Craddock come in a teach us the basics of how to use Adobe Photoshop Elements 6. Some of the stuff we learnt was that in this programme you can layer images on top of each other, this is good because it gives it a much more professional look. We also learnt that by layering pictures over each other means that you can make some stand out more than others meaning the main information can be seen clearly. The first thing we started with was inserting text I inserted my artists name and the title of the album. To practice we used images of the internet and layered them over each other changing the filter of each image and making them more or less transparent. I know that for my real one I cannot use images that are from somebody else at that i have to use my own images.
This is what I did during the lesson playing about with the programme and seeing all the different things i can do. I did two examples I prefer the top one and am thinking of doing something like this for my real thing.

  1. You need to post some evidence of how you put your Photoshop skills not practice Chelsea. I would also like more detail about how you intend to use these skills to produce your digipack and magazine advertisement.

    You should be able to exceed your target grade by at least one grade for your coursework but need to keep your eye on the metaphorical ball.

    Keep working hard!
