Adobe Photoshop is one of the most popular software editing tools on the planet. Photoshop, like that of its partner InDesign, is one of the powerhouses of design editing. In this blog, I'll be examining Photoshop some more and providing a draft for my first handout.
What Photoshop has to offer
My previous blogs about designing collateral material revolved around using InDesign, which is more catered to editing layouts and pages (e.g., business cards, letterheads and envelopes).
Photoshop, however, is unique in its own right because there is a lot more one can do within the application. This includes photo altering, animating, creating motion designs and producing digital art.
One thing I've learned about Photoshop is just how complicated it can seem. I'm not a Photoshop professional, and using the tools can feel a little overwhelming. With that being said, after getting practice with designing and editing, things started to feel a lot easier.
When preparing a design in Photoshop, it's important to try and understand some of the main features first. Photoshop is a very complex application with a wide range of tools, it's not something you can just walk into blindly.
Watching informational videos, going through tutorials and practicing are the most helpful things someone can do
before designing. In addition, understanding the layers tab of the application can help a lot.
With the material I'll be designing now, Photoshop finally gets the spotlight. Being a photo editing and graphics software, it's perfect for things like handouts because they use a lot of graphic material.
Handout Draft
Below is my first handout draft for my stakeholder regarding OU Recruitment Services. I wanted to try and accomplish something that could attract students enough that would widen their interests in the school. In addition, utilizing large text, logos and visuals that pop out at the viewer and can weigh interest.
