I’m assuming that you want to build a strong foundation of skills before tackling more advanced editing topics. Too often people want to skip to the most advanced topics before building this foundation. But you can’t expect to cherry pick topics without leaving gaps in your skills.

The lessons in this course are carefully sequenced to ensure maximum progress as quickly as possible.

Here are just a few of things you will learn when you take this course:

• Ways to control the colour, Tone and Contrast of an image and why this is important.


• Fix common problems like correcting lens and perspective distortion, removing dust spots and levelling a crooked image.


• Correctly apply sharpening and noise reduction to deliver professional quality images.


• Learn to use the Graduated filter and Radial filter to balance images and create special effects.


• Use Luminosity and Color Range selection for precision image adjustments.


• Apply special effects like simulating a light leak or give your photos a retro feel.


• Produce dramatic black and white conversions.
