Practicing With Photoshop

To get ready for the making of our print productions, we had a tutorial on how to use Photoshop. Although being a photography student, I found the lesson helpful and rewarding. I showcased the original image and my own edited version.

The magnetic Lasso tool was a big key concept regarding the editing of both these images, I was glad to get some practice with using it as before I struggled to control it and my images began to look unprofessional and jagged. I can now use this tool without trouble and hopefully it will help me produce far more professional looking print productions. 

At first I was a bit unsure of how to approach the edits, although using photoshop for photography, I feel it is used in a different way when regarding print productions, as adding a font and extra imagery is needed. However by the end of the lesson I was capable of using all the tools, and in fact now use some in my photography work. Resulting in the lesson being rewarding and effective.
