Course Description
Unlock the magic of AI tools in Adobe Photoshop to streamline your workflow and elevate your photography to the next level. Join longtime Photoshop power user Josh Withers for a two-session webinar this winter to learn the new AI tools in step-by-step demonstrations. Practice files are provided for hands-on experience to follow along with, or to practice with on your own time.
With Generative AI in Photoshop, you can create just about anything you can imagine. Quickly delete unwanted elements like wires and people with Distraction Removal. Add rich, detailed elements that blend seamlessly into a scene using the most advanced Generative Fill yet. And extend any image with Generative Expand. Although AI tools are featured, discussions on layers, selections, and Adobe Camera RAW are also covered as they are all necessary for a proper approach to working in Photoshop. The goal of this program is not to create a fantasy world using AI prompts but to solve the practical challenges we face editing our photographs using the modern AI tools that can make our editing job easier, and quicker.
A basic understanding of Photoshop is preferred, although fundamental concepts are discussed regarding workflow from Lightroom and what not to do in Photoshop by using a non-destructive workflow instead.
Join Josh to learn the practical use of AI tools in Photoshop that make your life a whole lot easier.
