MDIA 203 - Advanced Photoshop & Animate (3)

This project-based course will begin with a review of Adobe Photoshop basics and quickly move into intermediate and advanced concepts of layering, masks, paths, and shapes. Students practice image surgery techniques using enhanced tools, transforming and warping types, annotating within the project file, and apply color correction across color spaces of RGB, CMYS, HSB, and LAB. Students will work with the animation and video components of Photoshop then on to create vector graphics and animation with Adobe Animate. Team and independent projects at both mid-term and finals will replace a traditional written exam.
