This is among the finest Photoshop courses available online. It closely mirrors an in-person class experience, complete with assignments and a workbook. I look forward to the day they offer the same class designed for Photoshop on the Pc.
Look no further for top-notch Photoshop instruction online! This course offers an immersive learning experience akin to attending classes in person, complete with engaging homework assignments and a comprehensive workbook. I eagerly anticipate the day when a similar caliber of instruction will be available for Photoshop on iPad, making it even more accessible and convenient for learners everywhere.
This is one of the best photoshop classes you can find on the web. It is almost like taking a class in person with homework assignments and a workbook. I hope someday soon they will have this same class with photoshop for ipad
This is the best class on PS I ever attended and I have been through a few of them !
not finished yet... but, FYI there is no longer a Facebook group for this class
Such a great course. I was worried it would be out of date in 2022 but absolutely not. I am over half way through the course and I haven't seen a single thing that isn't still relevant to the 2022 version. Highly recommend.
I have tried to learn photoshop with another course. It was somewhat helpful but too much theory. This is down to earth. Very practical and the downloads for each lesson are very helpful. Wow! Highly recommend for beginners and intermediate users.
As a beginner, watching various youtube videos that were above my skill level was so confusing I just couldn't connect the dots. This series of 20 classes takes PS one step at a time and all videos are easily accessible in a central location. Love it!
It is so interesting and useful. I love it!
Watching from Portugal, absolutely brilliant..! In PS, everything can be very easy after all... Thanks for the opportunity to listen for free this exceptional 1th class! Looking forward to watch the next ones.
excellent
This is the best photoshop course I have ever taken! I've tried courses on Lynda and Udemy, and when starting to watch them I would loose interest and find them boring quickly. Ben is a complete game changer for me. He makes the learning process flawless, and what I also like is the "AHA" moments when he reveals some cool tricks. Couldn't be more grateful!
I really appreciate the variety of teachers on Creative Live. Photoshop is a complex program I avoided for years because it was too intimidating. Ben delivers the goods on guiding you thru it all. I am taking a variety of photoshop classes on creative live and they are all really great. Thank-you Ben for the in-depth guidance. I haven't finished all the classes, yet but by the time I do, I should be pretty confident in using photoshop. Grateful.
Ben is great presenter! Course assets for each particular session need better labeling and chronological organization.
I thought Ben's class was awesome! You have some classes where you learn something new. You have instructors that teach you what you are suppose to do and you actually do it. Ben's classes for me, were crystal clear in his Bootcamp classes. I need to go back and start doing the applications from each of the classes.
The way Ben explains concepts in this class helped me tremendously not just to learn how to get things done, but also to figure out the philosophy behind how do things in Photoshop. It is obvious there has been a lot of thoughts put into this class and the flow of this class is excellent.
I'm loving the class. I wanted a complete instruction on Photoshop that is well-organized and explains the concepts along with the tricks. I really like Ben's instruction style. He explains things clearly, repeats key concepts (but not too much), and seems to anticipate questions that viewers would wonder about.
I am only half way through the course and I feel like I have learnt a lot already. The pieces of puzzle are finally coming together. Thank you Ben and Creative Live for this amazing course!
I am so happy that I found this class. I had been trying to use PS, and even took an in-person class to get started, but things just didn't all make sense. Ben has a wealth of knowledge and conveys it succinctly. It starts out basic and builds over session to really complex editing. It is well shot and edited and very clear (from a video standpoint). He is a really great instructor. Even though this is an earlier version of PS than I have, he tells you enough to be able to find the various functions, even if they have been tweaked by Adobe. I can't recommend this highly enough. I am so much more comfortable with PS now and really starting to enjoy working with it.
Very thorough and detailed. Great especially if you are fairly new to Photoshop. Ben also shares his tricks with his personal style of photography, so this includes a lot of helpful hints for landscape and city photography; more so than when applied to modeling, portrait and studio photography where he still covers many basics.
I watched this class live on it's release and purchased it during the live broadcast. I am still watching it today and picking up on new info every time I view it. Ben's teaching style is to the point, easy to understand and clearly explained. I highly recommend this class as a simply put explanation of PS. Enjoy!
Excellent course.
Excellent course, but little disappointed that this is for Photoshop 2105 and now thereBen has new Photoshop 2020 course but Creative live still sells older version, if I would have known that before buying this course, I would have bought Photoshop 2020 course. Also, I mainly do portrait work and unfortunately if you use brightness and shadow sliders too much in Adobe RAW, skin color changes and looks unnatural.
Absolute a complet course about Photoshop. I already have quite a big of experience with the program and did many courses on Photoshop! Still this course has small tips/advices. And most important some nice exercises to improve your Photoshop efficiency. I liked the live audience (most my Photoshop Courses) where not. Because they have pracitual questions from the workfield. You learn more then how the tools work only.
While this introduction to Camera RAW, I did notice there are no images of people, and thus no understanding of how to use CR on skin. Perhaps that is covered in the comprehensive CR2 course.
