Tonight you will receive several handouts that detail the tools you'll find in Photoshop and Illustrator. Knowing the tools is an important part of using either program. Not only will it speed up your work, but it will also allow you to create more!
Another key element, especially when dealing with Photoshop, is understanding resolution. Resolution is basically the amount of pixels an image has. The more pixels (higher resolution) the better the image has the ability to look. High resolution images can be sharper and hold more detail than low resolution images. Printed material, like magazines, always use high resolution images to maintain crisp detail. Digital media, like websites, tend to use lower resolution images because your computer monitor, smart phone, etc doesn't need all that extra information to display a nice-looking image.
Sam will be my helper today and will give you the THREE handouts to study during tonight's class. If you have any questions about them, I urge you to search the internet to find answers. Being independent, and being able to answer your own questions, is important. But if you get stuck not understanding something, please feel free to email me. I am happy to explain further if needed.
Use tonight's class to study these three handouts. Study them on Tuesday as well. Wednesday, you'll have a quiz on ALL THREE HANDOUTS! Be ready!
