<h3>Before Class</h3>
<p>The Pen tool in Photoshop is one of the most avoided tools by the most Photoshop users.  It may be explored or played with while using the program, but many users find in unintuitive and cumbersome to make a part of their normal workflow.  There tends to be a strange level of intimidation regarding the Pen.  This course is meant to change that.  At the culmination of this class students should be as comfortable with the Pen as with any other tool in Photoshop.</p>
<h3>Week One</h3>
<h4>The Pen is mightier than the sword, or the brush, or the clone stamp tool, or even the filter menu.</h4>
<p>This week we’ll delve into what exactly the Pen does that is different than anything else in Photoshop, and why you’d want to use it.  We’ll explore the interface and get some hands on time in Path wrangling.</p>
<h3>Week Two</h3>
<h4>Now cut that out! Remove an object from a background without the Magic Wand tool!</h4>
<p>Remove an object from a background without the Magic Wand tool!</p>
<h4>This week we’ll see why the Pen is the “Anti-Magic Wand” tool.  We’ll use it to cut an object out of the background of an image.  We’ll explore the techniques the pros use and develop an efficient work flow for quickly creating precise clipping paths, and discuss why that’s a good thing.</h4>
<h3>Week Three</h3>
<h4>Illustrating in Photoshop, learning to draw a logo that can be scaled to any size without smudging</h4>
<p>Learn to create tight vector illustrations in our favorite image editor.  In a program where pixels reign supreme, the vectors tools are often forgotten.  This week we’ll dust them off and see that Photoshop can draw!</p>
<h3>Week Four</h3>
<h4>Keeping it real, practical path projects and Professional Pen practices</h4>
<p>This week we’ll cover some real life applications of the Pen techniques and explore some of the secret tricks of the pros.</p>

<h3>Description</h3>
<div id="attachment_520" class="wp-caption aligncenter" style="width: 460px"><img class="size-full wp-image-520" title="Examples of solarisation and hand-colouring (from bw original)" src="http://www.digitalartacademy.com/courses/wp-content/uploads/2009/07/Course-publicity-image2.jpg" alt="Examples of solarisation and hand-colouring (from bw original)" width="450" height="218" /><p class="wp-caption-text">Examples of solarisation and hand-colouring (from bw original)</p></div>
<p>This course will introduce you to a collection of fascinating photo/image techniques used by experienced photographers and fine art print makers. With this set of creative photo effects you will discover and enjoy an exciting new journey of self-expression.</p>
<p>With digital technology, image manipulation has never been easier and this course will open the way to self-expression by giving you the confidence to enhance your own photographs and elevate them to the realm of ‘fine art’.</p>
<p>Each easy to follow technique will be clearly explained so that you can understand the background behind the process and not just blindly follow a step-by-step process. In this way, your imagination will be stimulated and at each stage you will be encouraged to explore your creative impulses.</p>
<p>The techniques are fully supported by <em>video tutorials</em> to make the learning experience more enjoyable.</p>
<p><strong> </strong></p>
<h3>Skill Level</h3>
<p>Beginner to intermediate.</p>
<p>Since this is a creative techniques course, I will be assuming everyone has some prior knowledge of and hands-on experience with a mouse (clicking, dragging etc) and the computer&#8217;s operating system e.g folders and files management.</p>
<p>I will also assume some basic knowledge of Photoshop BUT will explain in detail virtually everything you need to complete the course. Those of you with good expertise in Photoshop should forgive me if at times it seems I am &#8216;teaching my grandmother to suck eggs&#8217; since there will be others with less expertise! Have patience!</p>
<p>All the techniques have been prepared in PS CS3 but should still be workable in most previous versions and CS4 as I have tried to avoid CS3 specific features in favour of a more general approach.</p>
<h3>Software Requirements</h3>
<ul>
<li>Adobe Photoshop  &#8211; windows or mac version.</li>
</ul>
<h3>Hardware Requirements</h3>
<ul>
<li>Any computer capable of running Adobe Photoshop</li>
<li>A graphics tablet makes life a lot easier but a mouse will do the job</li>
</ul>

<h3>Before Class</h3>
<p>I recommend you read the &#8216;How to get the most from your course&#8217; information. Then open your mind to creative input and output!</p>
<h3>Week One</h3>
<h4>Any colour you like as long as it isn&#8217;t black!</h4>
<p>Week one will be all about adding colour to images. We will deal with a variety of methods for replicating the traditional &#8216;darkroom toning&#8217; of an image and also explore hand-colouring; another highly effective and popular technique for adding your personal touch to a photo image.</p>
<h3>Week Two</h3>
<h4>Beyond the range of the eye and into the infra-red!</h4>
<p>Week two will deal with adding pseudo 3D effects to an image based on the traditional darkroom methods and an exploration into replicating the astonishing visual effect of infra-red black and white film.</p>
<h3>Week Three</h3>
<h4>Move over Hockney, Warhol and Man Ray!</h4>
<p>Week three will deal with posterisation and the &#8216;pop art&#8217; look followed by another very popular darkroom &#8216;arty&#8217; technique; pseudo-solarisation. These two techniques can produce very stylish, graphic images.</p>
<h3>Week Four</h3>
<h4>Lith it here, lith it there! SX-70 it everywhere!</h4>
<p>Week four will explore a real favourite amongst traditional fine-art photographers known as the &#8216;lith printing&#8217; technique. This is a technique capaple of producing beautiful and unusual images. We will complete the course by learning to simulate digitally one of the truly unique techniques &#8216;discovered&#8217; by art photographers when Polaroid introduced their SX-70 instant film and cameras. The digital Polaroid SX-70 technique, like the original method, is capable of producing quite individual and beautiful results.</p>

<h3>Description</h3>
<p>In this class students will design and create multi-image montages to illustrate a concept or an activity of the portrait of the person they are photographing.  Upon completion the students will have a strong understanding of visual theory, color interpretation, qualities of light, and a firm comprehension in how to work with the tools and procedures in Photoshop.</p>
<p>Text and instructional information will be supplied by the instructor, and in notes taken by the students from the video instructional presentation.</p>
<p>Recorded video presentations will illustrate the concepts of elements, how to effectively use lighting to strengthen the image, and color story to support the finished image.  The importance of background will also be a key feature of this week.  All aspects from choosing colors to lighting style have an impact of the finished designed piece and when correctly working together make a successful image.  Video presentations will provide a visual learning atmosphere.</p>
<h3>Skill Level</h3>
<p>Intermediate to advanced understanding of photography, lighting, and Photoshop is required.</p>
<h3>Software Requirements</h3>
<ul>
<li>Photoshop 7 or greater</li>
<li>A Professional camera</li>
</ul>
<h3>Hardware Requirements</h3>
<ul>
<li>A desktop or laptop computer with enough processing speed and ram to handle large image sizes and to run Photoshop smoothly.  It will make no difference if the student is working on a P.C. or a Mac platform, although the instructor will be teaching from a P.C.</li>

<h3>Description</h3>
<p><span style="text-decoration: underline;"><strong>From Traditional to Digital: Painting Fundamentals:</strong></span><strong> </strong>As painters, our job is twofold.  First, we must develop a powerful understanding of light, and second, we learn to interpret that information through the medium of brushstrokes.  This course provides an intensive, fundamental study of light, how it works, and how to paint it using digital painting tools.  We will study from reference photography, and create paintings both from photographs and imagination.</p>
<h3>Skill Level</h3>
<p>All levels can benefit from this class.</p>
<h3>Software Requirements</h3>
<p>nstructor is using Adobe Photoshop CS5, but this course is not software specific.  Students may use the digital painting software of their choosing.  Recommended softwares are: Adobe Photoshop (CS or higher), Corel Painter (any version), ArtRage.</p>
<h3>Hardware Requirements</h3>
<p>Computer that can run the software properly.  Mac or PC will suffice.</p>
<p>Wacom Tablet (Intuos or Bamboo, any size)</p>

<div id="syllabus">
<h3>Before Class</h3>
<p>A familiarity with your chosen digital painting software is highly recommended.  This is not an advanced software class, so a basic familiarity is all you need.</p>
<h3>Week One</h3>
<p>Introduction to Light</p>
<p>Your Instructor will introduce the concept of painting light, and will begin to deconstruct and analyze selected photographs to communicate some fundamental concepts of how light works, as well as introduce the student to common lighting situations found in nature.  Students will be asked to find their own photographs that demonstrate the various lighting conditions discussed in the lecture.</p>
<h3>Week Two</h3>
<p>Quick Digital Studies from Photography</p>
<p>We will examine some more photographs, and instructor will demonstrate quick digital studies, with the goal of accurately reproducing the effect of light seen in the photos.  These studies are fast and loose,  and will use traditional techniques, rather than relying on ‘digital trickery’.  The goal at this stage is for the student to begin to learn what elements are essential to capture, what elements must be simplified, and what must be edited out.  Students will be asked to do their own digital studies from photos of their choosing.  Some digital brush creation will be discussed as well.</p>
<h3>Week Three</h3>
<p>Critique of Student Studies</p>
<p>Students will submit their work to the class, and the instructor will choose studies at random, and critique them for the class’ benefit.  Critiques will be performed by directly painting over the top of the work, as well as a verbal discussion of how to improve upon the study.</p>
<h3>Week Four</h3>
<p>Painting from Imagination</p>
<p>The instructor will draw upon information learned during the previous studies, and will paint a scene entirely from imagination, without using any reference material, and discussing the process as the painting evolves.  Students will learn how to directly apply their knowledge of light to any subject, and create believable and beautiful images.</p>

<h3>Description</h3>
<p>New Digital Painting Features in Photoshop CS5. With this latest version of Photoshop, Adobe has introduced an assortment of new and exciting painting tools that will change the way you paint in Photoshop. This course will explore what these new tools are, discuss their capabilities and limitations. Most importantly, this course will show you how to use these new features to bring your Digital Painting skills to a whole new level.</p>
<p>This course begins with an introduction to the new painting tools in CS5 and launches into project themed lessons.  Students will learn techniques to turn a photo into a convincing painting,  how to paint from scratch from a sketch, and finally a host of special tips and tricks to use on a personal work of art.</p>
<p>The course work is primarily written instruction but also includes several videos to demonstrate the techniques click for click.</p>
<p><strong>BONUS:</strong> This course includes a custom CS5 Painting Panel students can download and install. This panel becomes part of the Photoshop interface and makes using the right set of tools and techniques that much more convenient.</p>
<h3>Skill Level</h3>
<p>Intermediate.  This is not an introduction to digital painting course.  Students should have some experience with digital painting and the Photoshop interface. The focus is on the new tools and how to use them.</p>
<h3>Software Requirements</h3>
<p>Photoshop CS5</p>
<h3>Hardware Requirements</h3>
<p>Machine capable of handling fairly large digital painting files.</p>
<p>Graphics  Tablet is <strong>highly</strong> recommended.</p>

<h3>Before Class</h3>
<p>Students are expected to attend class with an appetite for learning, a love for art, and an eagerness to grow as an artist.</p>
<p>Students should familiarize themselves with the Photoshop interface and the standard brush engine. Students should also have a photo they’d like to turn into a painting, a sketch they’d like to paint on, and an idea for a personal painting project at the end of class.</p>
<h3>Week One</h3>
<h3>The All-New, All-Different brush engine.</h3>
<p>This week we will explore the new tools like the new bristle brushes and mixer brush,  make sense of the mind boggling array of new settings, find a few hidden gems Adobe hid along the way, and install a new Painting panel on the interface.</p>
<h3>Week Two</h3>
<h3>Photo to Painting. Can it really be that easy?</h3>
<p>This week we will go through the process of painting over a photograph with the intent to transform it into a painting.  We’ll discuss how to evaluate the photo and what techniques to use where for the best results.</p>
<h3>Week Three</h3>
<h3>Let’s paint!</h3>
<p>Students will learn the true power of these new tools this week when we take off the training wheels and dive into the deep end of our pool of mixed paint and metaphors.  The goal is simple: start with a sketch, end with a painting.  The lesson will explain each step of the process along the way.</p>
<h3>Week Four<br />
<h3>
In this final week of class, we’ll go over some final fun tips and tricks to round out this review of the new Painting features. Then students will be expected to take what they’ve learned and apply it to a personal painting project to share with the class.</p>

<h3>Description</h3>
<p><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-359" title="2009-07-20_0848" src="http://www.digitalartacademy.com/courses/wp-content/uploads/2009/07/2009-07-20_0848.png" alt="2009-07-20_0848" width="558" height="360" /></p>
<p>This course is a beginner level course that presents the basics of digital painting with Photoshop. It&#8217;s a hands-on exploration of tools, theory, and technique designed to familiarize students with the fundamentals of creating painted artwork within Photoshop. By the end of the course, students should be comfortable using the painting tools and have a solid understanding of the workflow involved in producing a painting of their own.</p>
<h3>Skill Level</h3>
<p>Beginner to Intermediate</p>
<h3>Software Requirements</h3>
<ul>
<li>®Photoshop 7 or higher</li>
<li>®Photoshop Elements 6 or higher</li>
</ul>
<h3>Hardware Requirements</h3>
<ul>
<li>Adobe® Photoshop® – CS and above – if you have an earlier version, you can still benefit from this class as it covers the basics which haven’t changed. There would be some activities you wouldn’t be able to participate in because depending on your version, you might not have access. That would be the exception more than the rule.</li>
<li>You can download a trial version of Photoshop CS4 Extended if you don’t have Photoshop. It’s only good for 30 days. Then, after taking the class and the program, by all means purchase it so you can take the follow-on class and learn even more about the program. It’s the best graphics program you can find, so it’s an investment well worth making. If you want to try the 30 day trial, give it a shot: Photoshop CS4 Trial Download</li>
