theoretical knowledge.

Advanced Photoshop Techniques

This workshop provides a developed understanding of Photoshop's tools and
features for modifying and optimising digital images. It is suitable for

skills. Primarily aimed at those processing colour critical digital images
and those who require sophisticated manipulation techniques.

Building a departmental resource

This workshop aims to demonstrate the steps for creating, maintaining and
delivering an image collection. Through a range of hands-on activities,
