1
00:00:00,005 --> 00:00:02,001
- Photoshop is the industry standard

2
00:00:02,001 --> 00:00:05,002
for image manipulation and creative visual expression.

3
00:00:05,002 --> 00:00:07,001
Whether you're looking to pursue a career

4
00:00:07,001 --> 00:00:08,006
or you want to learn the tools

5
00:00:08,006 --> 00:00:10,004
to enhance your own design skills,

6
00:00:10,004 --> 00:00:13,002
this LinkedIn learning course is for you.

7
00:00:13,002 --> 00:00:14,008
I'm Julieanne Kost and I've been working

8
00:00:14,008 --> 00:00:17,009
on the Photoshop team at Adobe for over 25 years.

9
00:00:17,009 --> 00:00:19,005
I started in technical support,

10
00:00:19,005 --> 00:00:22,004
worked as a designer on the customer education team,

11
00:00:22,004 --> 00:00:26,000
and today I'm the principal digital imaging evangelist.

12
00:00:26,000 --> 00:00:28,005
Because Photoshop is a complex program,

13
00:00:28,005 --> 00:00:30,007
I created this fundamental training course

14
00:00:30,007 --> 00:00:32,002
and the tools that we cover

15
00:00:32,002 --> 00:00:34,008
specifically with the designer in mind.

16
00:00:34,008 --> 00:00:37,001
We start by exploring the power of smart objects

17
00:00:37,001 --> 00:00:39,001
and their ability to allow us to work

18
00:00:39,001 --> 00:00:41,007
in a flexible and nondestructive manner.

19
00:00:41,007 --> 00:00:43,006
Then we take an in-depth tour

20
00:00:43,006 --> 00:00:46,000
of the different transformation tools and filters

21
00:00:46,000 --> 00:00:48,004
that designers use most often.

22
00:00:48,004 --> 00:00:50,001
Together, we'll walk through the essentials

23
00:00:50,001 --> 00:00:52,008
of shape layers and layer effects and styles

24
00:00:52,008 --> 00:00:55,005
as well as fill layers and blend modes.

25
00:00:55,005 --> 00:00:56,007
We'll take that look at how to work

26
00:00:56,007 --> 00:00:59,001
with Photoshop's type and painting tools,

27
00:00:59,001 --> 00:01:01,003
as well as cover the essential aspects

28
00:01:01,003 --> 00:01:04,003
of libraries, art boards and file export

29
00:01:04,003 --> 00:01:07,003
in order to increase our productivity.

30
00:01:07,003 --> 00:01:09,007
My goal is to remove any technical barriers

31
00:01:09,007 --> 00:01:11,005
so you can master the technology

32
00:01:11,005 --> 00:01:14,001
and start creating as soon as possible.

33
00:01:14,001 --> 00:01:15,008
I'm excited to be your instructor

34
00:01:15,008 --> 00:01:18,005
and I can't wait to share what I know about Photoshop.

35
00:01:18,005 --> 00:01:19,006
So let's get started.
