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
If you wish to follow along with this course, you can download the entire project folder for free.
37
The link is in the description.
38
This folder contains all the work documents, fonts, and project files necessary to follow along.
39
If you wish to skip ahead or back at any point in the course, you can find every episode link in the descriptions of each video.
40
Now, I also suggest you download the PDF worksheet.
41
You can save this to your computer and come back at any point.
42
This is an interactive PDF which has been designed to enhance this course experience.
43
This contains all the relevant video and project download links.
44
So I recommend you download this PDF.
45
You can also find the link in the description.
46
This PDF has also been designed to make it easy for you to share with fellow students
47
and friends who also wish to learn Photoshop.
48
Simply send this PDF around and others will be able to enjoy this course.
49
So that's the overview of this Photoshop beginners course.
50
Once you have downloaded the project PDF and the project folder, let's get into it.
51
And we are going to begin with the first video in the course, Interface Introduction to Adobe Photoshop.
52
See you in the next video.

Wat is de Shadowing-techniek?
Shadowing is een wetenschappelijk onderbouwde taalleermethode die oorspronkelijk is ontwikkeld voor professionele tolkentraining en gepopulariseerd door polyglot Dr. Alexander Arguelles. De methode is eenvoudig maar krachtig: je luistert naar native Engelse audio en herhaalt het onmiddellijk hardop — als een schaduw die de spreker volgt met slechts 1–2 seconden vertraging. In tegenstelling tot passief luisteren of grammaticadrills, dwingt shadowing je hersenen en mondspieren om echte spraakpatronen tegelijkertijd te verwerken en te reproduceren. Onderzoek toont aan dat het de uitspraaknauwkeurigheid, intonatie, ritme, verbonden spraak, luisterbegrip en spreekvaardigheid aanzienlijk verbetert — waardoor het een van de meest effectieve methoden is voor IELTS Speaking-voorbereiding en echte Engelse communicatie.
