"Nuove Frontiere Lavoro," in collaboration with the training organization "Idee Insieme" and thanks to the "Formatemp" fund, is publishing an "Expert Photoshop with AI" course online.
The course starts from the need to create a highly specialized figure capable of creating a photographic project to be edited and post-produced using the software ADOBE PHOTOSHOP with AI. The expert works as a freelancer or in companies that entrust the management of their image to someone capable of giving greater appeal and recognition to the core business.
The aim is to begin with an analysis of the photograph and therefore an understanding of the photographic technique, aimed not only at achieving a technically correct shot but also at professional and conscious use of the software. In other words, we want to understand the fundamental criteria of photography so that digital processing is not reduced to a mere modification but rather a delicate and thoughtful modification of the source, also taking into account the chosen publishing platform. (print, or web).
TARGETS: The aim of the project is to create professional figures ready to face the current market demands in the field of photographic post-production thanks to the acquisition of the basic tools and rules of photography and then focus on digital image editing, all using the most innovative retouching techniques implemented by the new artificial intelligence features contained in the ADOBE PHOTOSHOP software. An image processing professional, this professional will be able to understand how the photograph was created, what the key elements are, and then evaluate where and how to intervene in digital editing.
At the end of the course the EXPERT in ADOBE PHOTOSHOP will be able to:
- Learn the fundamental techniques of photography, development and digital editing through the use of ADOBE PHOTOSHOP
Specifically, students will have acquired the ability to:
- Interpret photography by identifying the technique used to create it;
- Recognize product photographs intended for the digital market
- Use ADOBE PHOTOSHOP software to apply the correct post-production to the photograph
- prepare files for successful printing;
