          2. Continue with your videos - John will be coming around and recording where you are
          3. IF you have finished the Basic Videos and moved on to the Intermediate make sure you follow all instruction in the BLOG so that you can correctly get credit.
        • Basic Skills [video tutorials]
          • You should have finished these last class (if you have been here for every class)
          • If you are missing additional work from previous classes use the menu on the LEFT to complete your skill set before continuing.
            • Add text and shapes
              • When you add text and shapes in Adobe Photoshop CC, they remain editable, and you can customize them down to the smallest detail.
                • adding text
                • changing text
                • creating a custom shape
                • adding a built in shape
            • Combine Images
              • One of the most powerful aspects of Adobe Photoshop CC is its ability to combine images to form imaginative composites.
            • Apply Filters
              • You can add quick effects to an image using filters in Adobe Photoshop CC. Filters can also be combined to create unique results.
        • Intermediate Skills [video tutorials]
            • These are the new videos featuring Unmesh Dinda, I think you will really like his 'way'
              • Everyone will complete BOTH tutorials but you may do the tutorials in either order.
              • Save your work because these are LONG tutorials with lots of examples AND you will need to submit the completed photos to Google Classroom for credit.
                • If you are returning to the image later always save AS a Photoshop document (PSD)
              • When finished with an EACH IMAGE in the Tutorial SAVE AS JPG to turn it in
                • File|Save AS --> JPEG  --> High Quality/12 
                • CHANGE the name so that you are clear which one you are uploading
              • When finished with each TUTORIAL
                • Upload the images to classroom.google.com
                • There is an assignment for EACH tutorial
                • Don't forget to submit the assignment when ALL of the images are in it.
            • ALL sample photos are linked in the NOTES BELOW EACH VIDEO
              • Look for the downloads section
              • If a photo link is BROKEN you still need to learn the skill so find an appropriate substitute in Google Images (I will try to do this for you in advance as well)
