Three Roses by Nathan Smith
Description:
This week we'll cover another principle of design - movement. We'll review Photoshop's powerful plug-in - Camera Raw - and go into more depth on the tools available there. In the past weeks you've learned about the Apply Image command - this week we'll learn about its more powerful cousin, the Calculations command. We'll also dive into some fun Photoshop special effects! Enjoy!

Don't get overwhelmed! Suggested plan to accomplish lesson 10:
Monday: Go through this page and lesson 10-1
- 10-1 is about the principle of movement in design and art. Take time to read the assigned articles carefully, so that you understand this important concept. You'll want to always consider this as you design your portfolio exhibits. Approximate time: 1 hour
- 10-2 goes into much greater depth about using Camera Raw. Take whatever time is necessary to learn the tools here. You'll have two exercise files you'll be submitting. Approximate time: 2-3 hours.
- 10-3 is all about the calculations dialog in Photoshop. This is even more powerful than the apply image dialog you learned about a couple weeks ago. Take time to experiment around with this. Approximate time: 1 hour.
- This is more for fun than anything. I'm sure you've seen some pretty awesome images that were manipulated in Photoshop. In this section, I will lead you to many tutorials that details how to do them. Possibilities for your next portfolio exhibit. This section is an invitation to go explore, play, and do some fun effects in Photoshop. Spend some time here - how much? Up to you...

- Finish up the two camera raw exercises if you needed more time on them.
- Work on your Portfolio exhibit 9
- Be sure to give good critiques to two other classmates for their exhibit 8.
