HUBBLE, BUBBLE, TOIL & TROUBLE MAKES a picture perfect!

If you enjoy taking digital photographs, this course could be just what you need to improve your images and turn good photographic images into great ones! It is designed for those who use a PC but are either new to image editing software or want to get more use out of Adobe Photoshop Elements.

Skill acquisition will start with using the software to download, catalogue and organise images. Practical work involving simple cropping, editing tools, various other techniques and creative filters will aim at giving your images more or different form of visual impact. You will also learn how to set up correctly images prior to printing, email or slide show production. You will have the opportunity to delve into the software further to cover more advanced editing skills and features e.g. slide show creation, photobooks, montage, and sending photos by email. Backing up your photo-collection will also be covered.

Above all, the course will be aimed at helping you build confidence to use and explore the software back at home. Demonstrations, handouts and step-by-step checklists will support your learning.

Some basic computer skills are required, such as the confident use of a mouse. To be sure that this course will suit you download this Pre-Course Checklist and Supplementary Advice Sheet which is also available from the Ammerdown Centre.
