Lesson 5 - Transformations
|
Experience:
In lesson 4, you learned about free transform. You'll have the opportunity to practice what you've learned here in lesson 5. You'll learn about Photoshop's undo capabilities, and the History Panel - a powerful undo feature on steroids. You'll learn about using Photoshop's crop tool. You'll also learn about smart objects - Photoshop's method of letting you do non-destructive transformations. I'll introduce you to the content-aware tools - they are almost magical. |

Photoshop's content aware technology is magical. In my portfolio exhibit, I've used it to delete boats blown out clouds in the sky. Click the image at right to see my attempt at using camera raw and the content aware tools.
