Hello and welcome to the complete beginner's guide to Adobe Photoshop.
2
Gareth here from tastycheats .com.
3
This is a course created for beginners to Adobe Photoshop.
4
The topics that are going to be covered in this course are the basics.
5
So whether you have the most up -to -date version of Photoshop or you're using an older version, you should be able to to follow along just fine.
6
For this course, I'll be using Adobe Photoshop CC 2014.
7
In this series, we will be starting from the very beginning
8
and working our way across 33 episodes to learn all the basics and create a project from scratch.
9
Now, this may seem like a lot of episodes, but trust me, after this creative adventure, you will be able to use Adobe Photoshop like a pro.
10
After watching this series, you will be able to create your very own artwork in Photoshop ready for print and digital use.
11
So what are we going to create on this course?
12
For this course, we are going to carry out a design project.
13
We are going to explore a design scenario where we will need to produce book cover artwork for a children's book.
14
We are going to work to a fictional brief and create this book cover design.
15
So why a book cover design?
16
Well, this creative exercise is going to include all the basic tasks a designer will need to know as a beginner.
17
To create this project, we will be working with all the common creative tools.
18
We will be working with typography, we will be using Photoshop effects, and we will be managing a complex workflow.
19
We will not only be learning how to create the artwork, but how to manage the project in a smart way.
20
So let's take a look at the finished document.
21
So here we are in Adobe Photoshop, and here you are looking at the finished book cover design we are going to build up to.
22
So this composition includes a lot of design and illustrative elements.
23
But if we look over in the layers panel, it's all contained in five neat layer folders.
24
Along the way, we will be focusing on each of these design elements individually, such as the header graphic, the logo, and the paper birds.
25
Finally, we will bring them all together to finish the complete composition.
26
Once we have finished the book design, we will then export the artwork to the correct format for a printer to print the design to specification.
27
So to help break down the process, I have structured the course in three main sections.
28
Introduction, essential practice, and create a project.
29
In the introduction section, I will be introducing you to Photoshop
30
and bringing you up to speed with some of the things
31
you need to be aware of before we continue onto the essential practice section.
32
In the essential practice section, we are going to look closely at some of the creative tools and principles in Photoshop.
33
Here, you will have the opportunity to get hands -on with the various Photoshop exercise documents I have designed
34
and prepared for you to practice with.
35
When we get to the create a project section, we will be using all that we have learned in the essential practice section to create a project from scratch.
36

¿Qué es la Técnica de Shadowing?
Shadowing es una técnica de aprendizaje de idiomas respaldada por la ciencia, desarrollada originalmente para la formación de intérpretes profesionales y popularizada por el políglota Dr. Alexander Arguelles. El método es simple pero poderoso: escuchas audio en inglés nativo y lo repites en voz alta de inmediato, como una sombra que sigue al hablante con solo 1-2 segundos de retraso. A diferencia de la escucha pasiva o los ejercicios de gramática, el shadowing obliga a tu cerebro y músculos de la boca a procesar y reproducir simultáneamente patrones de habla reales. Las investigaciones muestran que mejora significativamente la precisión de la pronunciación, la entonación, el ritmo, el habla conectada, la comprensión auditiva y la fluidez al hablar, convirtiéndola en una de las metodologías más efectivas para la preparación del IELTS Speaking y la comunicación en inglés en el mundo real.
