This workshop is designed to teach Photoshop from the ground up to hobbyists and amateur or professional photographers with little or no previous experience with digital imaging. The workshop provides students knowledge of the fundamentals of digital imaging and image manipulation with Photoshop with a strong emphasis on workflow.
The instruction approaches Photoshop from a photographer's point of view, so students should be versed in photographic terms and ideas. It is not meant to be a workshop in Photoshop for graphic designers or those interested in "special effects".

Each three-hour session will be broken into lecture/demo and hands on time for participants. Students should bring their own digital files (300 dpi/ppi or higher) and/or color or b&w film (demo files can be provided if necessary, but students are highly encouraged to work on their own images). CDs will be provided for archiving scanned files and final images.
