About this course
Adobe Photoshop is the software professionals use for graphic design, photo editing and digital art. This course takes you from your first install to a complete, client-ready brand kit - all on your laptop or PC.
You will master the Photoshop workspace and layers, make precise selections, work with colour and typography, edit and retouch photos, and design real projects - posters, flyers, logos and social media kits. You will also learn to export correctly for screen, print and paying clients.
Every lesson includes a practical exercise and a downloadable PDF guide. By the end, you will be designing like a professional - and you will have a portfolio you can show clients.
