What Is Photoshop?
---------------------------------------------------------------------
Photoshop is a photo and graphic editing program that is made by Adobe Systems, Inc. When the program was first released in 1990, it came equipped with a mountain of features that allowed users to enhance photographs and make graphic designs. Each subsequent year, additions and new versions added more power and variety to the program. Today, it is the standard for graphic design.
Course Objectives
---------------------------------------------------------------------
As you move through the course, you will begin to use different tools and apply various methods to different applications for graphic design purposes. Some objectives include learning how to apply image enhancements to a photograph or learning a step-by-step process to making a movie poster.

Photoshop vs. Illustrator
---------------------------------------------------------------------
Photoshop can be used to take any existing image and give it a professional, polished looked. Borders can be added and pictures tweaked to look better than any digital camera could make possible. Almost anything you can imagine doing to a picture is capable when using Adobe Photoshop.Adobe Illustrator is a different program entirely. Illustrator is a vector-based drawing program that allows you to create your own unique graphics. Adobe Illustrator graphics can be used in print, online, video, and even on your cell phone. Want to create your own background for your cell phone? It's possible when you have Adobe Illustrator and something that can't be done with Photoshop alone.
