Previously during the first lesson, we were told to watch this video on lynda.com about photoshop. That video will give us a rough idea about what photoshop is all about. Week 2 lesson, we learn how to use the basic photoshop tools with the help of our lecturer.We learn how to use the 4 basic tools to crop and also drag the photos.
First,the move tool. It is for us to drag the photos anywhere we want it to be.
Second,the marquee tool. There are different shapes such as rectangular, elliptical, single column and single row.
Third, the lasso tool. There are different type of lasso such as polygonal lasso and magnetic lasso.
And lastly the quick selection or magic wand.
All the 3 tools have the same functions which is to crop photos. Some might prefer different ways of cropping photos. We were given the chance to explore all the types of tools and do some practice on our own. I admit it is not that easy as we cannot control our hand movement.
I look forward to the next lesson where i can explore more on the different types of tools.
