The University of Hawaiʻi at Hilo College of Continuing Education and Community Service (CCECS) offers a pair of workshops on Adobe Photoshop Elements with professional videographer and graphic designer Artin Mardirousi. All sessions will be held in UH Hilo’s PB-7 (SeniorNet Lab). Tuition for each course is $75.
Part 1 is designed for new users and will cover photo album organization, exposure, cropping, white balance, removing imperfections, and correction techniques. Participants will also create print-ready photo albums to showcase their work. No prior Photoshop experience is necessary, but basic computer experience is required and a flash drive is recommended for saving workshop files. Classes will be held September 12-15 from 4:30-6:30 p.m.
Part 2 will teach participants how to harness the power of Photoshop Elements by focusing on useful tools and applications such as content aware (i.e. erasing people), masking (i.e. cutting and pasting people into different places), combining multiple pictures for group shots, and liquefying images. The course will also cover software multimedia functions such as video slideshows that can be burned to DVDs. Classes will be held September 19-22 from 4:30-6:30 p.m.
