INTRODUCTION:

Learn 4 advanced tasks in Photoshop. For each you might have to take a photo to work with, but each task should be completed in one class. Check the online tutorials for details.

BASIC REQUIREMENTS:

For all of these tasks keep a copy of the original image on the bottom layer of your file for reference.

• Tilt Swift or Depth of Field
  • Change the depth of field of your image, to give it the appearance of a miniature
  • This works by creating exaggerated drop-off in depth of field focusing.
  • Use a gradient Alpha Channel to control Depth of field in an image
• Perspective Lens Correction
  • Adjust distortion in an architectural photo
  • You might have to take a photo you can work with (looking up at a building)
  • Make sure to keep your original for reference!
• Liquify
  • Add Muscles or distort someone’s face
  • Much of your time will be spent figuring out how to use the tool effectively
  • Create one GOOD image, but save some of your other attempts (mistakes) as well!.
  • Aim to make an image that is still plausible but definitely modified.
• Retouch (Makeup / Remove Wrinkles)
  • Learn how to clone and draw onto new layers, which allow you to blend results
  • Great for removing parts of an image or for cosmetic fixes
  • Work with MANY layers and save them all.
  • You should have at least 6 layers when done
  • You can always turn them ‘off’ if you do not like the results

Bonus: Create one image where the person looks older, by adding wrinkles, more yellow in eyes / teeth and spots on skin.
