Welcome Class, continuing on in week one...

As we continue on, we will be using our research notebooks with the class website to learn how to use our software! Finish up the Photoshop Tools worksheet and the definitions, we will make sure that as a class we all have them well defined so that as a class we can speak the same language and know what we are doing.

Next up is Project One: Integrated Images, but before we get there, we need to do some research into the world of digital photography.

For today, start with the three page stapled supplement to our research notebooks.  Fill out the Brighton HS Profile page.  Next, turn to the paper that talks about Ethics and Law. In Digital Photography and with our image manipulation software, just like with spiderman, with great power, comes great responsibility! Read through the paper and think about the questions being asked: then, respond on the one page paper with the lines that follow. You can respond as paragraphs or as bullet points to each question, but give me your honest opinion and let's see what we think!

I am glad you are all here and excited to learn how to begin manipulating and creating images. We will start at the beginning with Photoshop CC and learn how to create new files, open and save, layers, unsharp mask, and much more - the basics of photoshop. You will use the images below for the first assignment. The exact parameters of the assignment will follow. Good luck!
