How I Managed To Get On With PhotoShop



When i first started this project, the only thing that i knew how to do is actually just placing an image into a page in order to edit it. Knowing that through making this magazine i will be using Photoshop i needed to get more of an insight of how to get things done whilst using it. I used a video known as Photoshop tutorial in under 25 minutes (http://lifehacker.com/5753459/learn-the-basics-of-Photoshop-in-under-25-minutes) which was on this website. This taught me the basics and how to get going with Photoshop, the video is short considering how much it covers. In the video it takes a look at every tool in the toolbar, the palettes on the right side of the screen, and what you'll find in the menus.

(http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BpaBw5fZPzw), other videos that i came across such as this one which was one that helped me in knowing what the eraser tool does not just erase lines but being able to also erase backgrounds that i didn't need. 


Videos weren't the only thing that got me used to the software, i decided on choosing a few images which i didn't need then played around with a few things which are on the software and those that i hadn't come across before in order to see what they do, such things as the "3D tool" or "Analysis".
