Photoshop Excercises
Here are some different exercises to familiarize yourself more with Photoshop.
Exercise 1
Goal: Copy the ghost and paste at least five copies of it into the castle picture. Use the Transform function on each ghost, and give the layer of each ghost a different Opacity.
1. Save the picture to your folder and open it in Photoshop.
2. Use the Selection Tools to Select different areas in the picture, and add a filter to each area.
The Filters are found on the top of the screen, and there are many different options for you to try.
3. When you are done with your first selection, remember to deselect before you go onto your next selection/filter.
Do this until you've covered the entire picture with filters! You should use at least five filters on five different areas.
Exercise 3
Goal: Use the Layer Mask tool to change part of an image.
If you had me last year, try to remember the Layer Mask tool that we used. Using that tool, change a part of an image. It can be anything, from changing the background of a place to inserting a person onto an animal.
If you need some inspiration, here is a suggestion...
Replace the eye with something else- it can be a galaxy, fire, a forest, the moon, anything really.
