You accidentally see a beautiful photo and are passionate about it, you want to create even more beautiful photos, and so you start looking for a software called Photoshop (This is the next article of the article: " Getting Started with Photoshop " )
Lesson 02 Photoshop Exercise Guide
Video number 1 has helped us get acquainted with some basic concepts along with very quick examples, which may make some of you find it difficult to grasp. The advice is to watch the video again and try to follow the operations in it. You can expand the internet to find more detailed documents. Some instructions below will help you remember the basic operations one more time.
1. Basic operations
Open the image file ( File > Open or press Ctrl - O or select the image file, drag and hold the left mouse button and drag the image into the Photoshop program). [See https://hocphotoshop.vn/bai-1-cach-mo-file-anh-trong-photoshop-cs6.html ].
Save the image after completing the exercise ( File > Save or press Ctrl – S ). [See https://hocphotoshop.vn/bai-2-cach-luu-file-anh-trong-photoshop-cs6.html ]
If we want to manipulate a part of the image of the currently selected layer, that part of the image must be selected (selection) and our operations will only affect that area. Once a selection has been created, only the selected area will be edited. Areas outside the selection will not be affected by the operations.
Duplicate layer: the operation to turn the selected area into a new layer: place the mouse in the selected area, go to Layer > New > Layer via Copy or press Ctrl – J , we will have a new layer containing the selected area
2. Basic selection operations
Lasso Tool group, allows to draw the selection area by yourself: hold the mouse on a point, draw the curve you want, when stopping, it will automatically connect to the first point, creating a contour, which is the selected area.
Polygonal Lasso Tool group, allows drawing a selection area in a zigzag line: hold the mouse on a point, click the next point, it will automatically connect the 2 points, when stopping (double click) it will automatically connect with the first point, creating a surrounding polygon, which is the selected area.
Magnetic Lasso Tool group, allows drawing a selection but according to the starting point: press the mouse on a point, move the mouse and it will automatically select the exact line for you, when stopping (double click) it will automatically connect to the point to create a contour, which is the selected area.
Magic Wand Tool group, allows drawing a selection area according to the points with the same color around the point you clicked (contiguous: linked area or unlinked area; Tolerance: the number that allows more or less points to be selected: the smaller the number, the more similar the color is to be selected, usually choose number 32).
Quick Selection Tool group, similar to Magic Wand Tool but we don't need to click many times, just hold down the mouse and move it to select the similar place.
Note: When selecting an object, we have to zoom in, then use the zigzag tool to move slowly along the border, it usually takes a while but the image is very high quality.
3. Basic photo beautification operations
The Spot Healing Brush Tool group is used to erase hot spots on the image. Hot spots are black spots, noise, acne, etc. Choose the appropriate size (not too big), then click on the hot spot, it will automatically handle it for you (miracle acne treatment!)
The Patch Tool group takes the color of another area and places it on the corresponding area, creating a reasonable blend, making the selected area more harmonious: click, drag and release the mouse to complete a point.
The Red Eye Tool group is used to handle red eye phenomenon in photos.
The Clone Stamp Tool group allows you to paint with the color of a given image area, often used to remove hot spots on a portrait without losing the color of the surrounding area. For example, removing text on a trash can.
