During this workshop you will acquire digital images from a variety
of sources. You will learn to use a scanner (bring your favourite
photograph), have your photo taken with a digital camera (don’t worry,
you get to keep the image), and download images from the Internet. You
will also explore clip art CD ROMs. You will also examine the various
settings available when using scanner software and understand the use of
TWAIN software. You will also explore the various file formats used in
digital imaging and explain image and screen resolution and you will
have an opportunity to do some basic image editing.
Using
Adobe Photoshop Elements or Adobe Photoshop, you will learn how to edit
the images you acquired from scanners, digital cameras, the Internet and
CD ROMs. You will learn to use palettes, save in different file formats,
and crop, re-size, rotate and flip images. You will touch up photographs
using the paintbrush and cloning tools, alter them using filters and
examine other concepts such as aspect ratio, hue and saturation. |
