A photomontage, a complex selection, or corrections on an image, whether global or localized, often result from the use of several tools, settings and features. Their knowledge makes it possible to evaluate the best adapted ones according to the characteristics of an image, in order to obtain an optimal result.

This workshop was born from my experience acquired over the years, during my online Photoshop courses and workshops. If a creative image requires imagination, it is also a matter of technique. Moreover, a photomontage must be photo realistic. Even if it represents an "unreal" image, the whole must be coherent and well done.

I've been able to get a pretty good idea of what my trainees generally know about Photoshop, and the techniques they use. However, some of them are not always used to their full potential, and others are less known. The same goes for some tools.

This workshop will allow you to learn and/or improve certain techniques, tools, and settings. They will allow you to have at your disposal a wide range of possibilities to work on your images. Many of the techniques and effects included in this workshop come from my various creative Photoshop online courses.

 

Workshop content:

- Advanced selection techniques: a photomontage generally begins with the selection of one or more elements of an image (clipping), you will learn to master the techniques that will allow you to make very precise selections. Each image has its own characteristics and you will learn to use the appropriate tools accordingly.
The mastery of selections is a fundamental element in the use of Photoshop, and this is why particular emphasis will be placed on this point.

- Blend mask: here again, this feature is one of the most important in the use of Photoshop. If its knowledge is often acquired by a regular user, we will see some advanced specificities.

- Colors : a photomontage is generally the assembly of several elements from different images, the important thing is that the final result is photorealistic. Indeed, the colorimetry, for example, can be different from one image to another, it will be necessary to make the necessary adjustments to obtain a balanced result. During the course you will learn how to balance the different elements.

- Motion blur :
While the application of this type of filter is simple to implement on an entire image, you will study here techniques to place them in a localized, and original way. The thumbnail image of this workshop is an illustration.

- Ambience:
The overall mood in a creative image is almost always modified from the base image. You will learn to create different moods, sometimes with global applications on the image, but more often by playing with lights and shadows in a localized way. The creation of rays of light, the dramatization of the sky, or the creation of mist, contribute strongly to the overall atmosphere. You will learn all these techniques, which will allow you to achieve creative results.

- Tips and tricks :
Throughout the course, several tips will be presented to you.

- Photomontage: several photomontages in the form of exercises will be made during the workshop.
These photomages will use the different techniques detailed above.

  1. Danielle Zahn (confirmed customer)

    A very nice creative architecture workshop in Lyon ...
    David knew how to direct us and get us to be able to reproduce this Photoshop course in a creative way.
    The use of tools and software was totally new to me, and I really enjoyed discovering his highly creative and artistic approach to post-processing.
    David has always been very attentive to my requests, and being able to review the course on video at home will be a big plus!
    a big THANK YOU to you David for your ability to teach in a constructive and caring way, always in a good mood, all these new elements for me ... I highly recommend it.

    Thanks for this great workshop David! This trainer is very clear and gives us a lot of information to progress and move forward quickly!

  3. Françoise TESTINI (confirmed customer)

    I participated in the Creative Architecture Workshop in Lyon. The training is very instructive. Throughout the creative process, David shows pedagogy by unrolling a clear and precise workflow. We juggle with the different selection tools, layer mask, luminosity mask... We are lost! No problem, David is there to assist us. It is besides the big strength of this training in presence. We can interact with the teacher and the trainees present.
    Concerning the teaching aids, at the end of the course David sends us a video recording of the key steps of his face-to-face demonstration, allowing us to come back to them later in more detail. Throughout the course, David is very available; he does not hesitate to share his experience and know-how, without withholding any information. I recommend this course to all people who master the basics of Ps.
