Short Description: Understanding how to take a great photo is just part of the photography equation. Going to the drugstore and getting photos printed is becoming less of a common practice. In order to get the most from your efforts as a photographer, you need to learn how to finish the photo by using software tools like Adobe Photoshop Elements 2021. In our Learn Photoshop Elements 2021 course you will learn image processing as a three-step process: importing and organization, basic and advanced edits, and printing and sharing.
NOTE: This course does NOT include the Adobe Photoshop software. Students must check Adobe for the free trial availability or purchase the software prior to registration.
Instructor Description: This class supported by an Educational Mentor. Educational mentors have worked or are working in the subject they mentor. Educational Mentors review student work, student progress, and interact with students as needed. They respond to any questions or concerns you might have, as well as encouraging and motivating students to succeed.
