All our Online Adobe Training Courses are now available for booking directly online via Reed.co.uk. We currently have two scheduled courses coming up in August but more will be added as when we can schedule them. These are the same courses as here onsite but because we can organise them as scheduled courses we can offer them at the greatly reduced price of £90.00 per person all inclusive.
Just using the built-in presets and basic tools for Adobe Lightroom Photo Editing gives pretty amazing effects with a few clicks of the mouse. However if you want to up your game there are plenty of advanced techniques and features you can use such as Lightroom’s Adjustment Brush panel.
The Adjustment Brush is one of the most powerful tools in Lightroom and accessed via the Develop tab. Using Adjustment Brushes lets you isolate and edit areas of the image and apply effects such as colour, retouching and toning to those individual sections
So during these last few weeks the focus has been on getting the courses delivered online and finally there seems to be headway. People seem to be taking advantage of the small bite sized chunks – they can just ring in or email with a problem and depending on the situation either hook up immediately or make a time later in the day.
Microsoft Teams & Creative Cloud Assets are one of the more powerful ways in which Greta Powell Training is delivering live instructor online training. It has to be said Microsoft Teams has been a god send. We’re now starting to see some of the main questions delegates ask prior to booking online training with the main ones being how do I use my software in conjunction with Microsoft Teams.
As online training is new to many we thought it might be an idea to write a series of blog posts on Microsoft Teams and the online training process covering some of the questions. We will also be recording a full Microsoft Teams tutorial which will be online in the next few days.
Teams is not just about chat and screen sharing it also provides a myriad of other opportunities such as……………………………………
The Adobe Lightroom Crop Tool is far more versatile than many people realise. This Lightroom tutorial covers most of the tips, tricks and features of the Crop Tool covered in the Lightroom Training Course which is delivered both live onsite or as an Online Lightroom Course.
The Adobe Lightroom Course is now delivered online either as a full course or in small bitesize chunks with a live Lightroom Trainer – find out more about our Live Instructor Online Training Courses here.
With travel and meetings being curtailed by the Corona Virus and overall interaction between people becoming more limited we are offering more online live instructor led training to compensate. Why miss out on your training course? There are no geographical boundaries with live online training so you can learn without leaving the comfort of your chair in your office or home – well anywhere that has a screen in fact.
Many people think that because they’re on Furlough they’re not allowed to go on training courses, online or otherwise. You can go on training – pop along to the Gov website to see what you can and can’t do.
The question is exactly what do you want to do with your image editing software. Obviously you want to edit photographs but when making the choice between Photoshop or Lightroom training you need to be a little more specific. Do you want to simply edit images, do you work with large amounts of images, want to create graphics, design social media images and animated GIF’s the list seems almost never-ending.
Which do you choose? The answer to that is it really depends on is what you need to do and the particular project /s at hand. So this is a post listing the key parts of each piece of software and their use in certain projects.
In this post we take a look at both pieces of software and way up the pros and cons. Incidentally Adobe provide a number of different subscription options over on their website you can choose from.
Over and over again colour is mentioned on Premier Pro Courses. On these Greta Powell Training Courses we use the Premier Pro Lumetri Panels for retouching and changing colour schemes within the video. Before even venturing into the colour panels we always clear up the difference between colour grading and colour correction. They are not one and the same thing. Colour grading means you add creative colour to your project whereas colour correction means giving balance, exposure and ‘true’ representation of colour.
Happy to introduce you to the new Quick Start Premier Pro Training Course which is designed to give you the basic skills needed for video editing to create short snazzy marketing reels destined for social media and the web. This is a one day course that introduces you to the main tools & features of the software and shows you how to bring together clips to produce interesting and professional short video reels.
It is designed as an introduction course so is ideal for complete beginners and anyone looking to create & publish to social media such as vimeo, Youtube and Facebook. It is a great course for Youtubers, Course instructors, social media video editors and bloggers /vloggers needing just enough skills to produce professional video and sound.
With new tools coming to Photoshop we thought it would be a good idea to give a heads up as to what they might. We also thought it might be an idea to include some of the not so new as well. Not the newest but certainly one of the most popular features on the Photoshop Courses is the Content Aware Fill tool which has been greatly updated in the latest versions.
Then there is the New Object Selection Tool coming to Photoshop in the very near future. But this is going to be quite a fluid post so as and when new tools appear we’ll add them to this post but in the meantime take a quick look at these Youtube videos to get an idea of what goes on in the software.
