Photoshop and S4C

Posted at 10:08 pm.

Today we had our first workshop - Photoshop. Having worked a little with Photoshop before starting the course I found it easy to understand Ben (our tutor). I must admit that I didn't learn any wowing new techniques today, but it was fantastic to regain knowledge of forgotten tools, learn cool new shortcuts to the most commonly used features, and learn how Ben tackled imagery to help himself and his clients. His way was much more efficent than I ever thought possible, so I hope that it will help increase workflow with the software package in the future.

In the afternoon we went to visit S4C, one of the supporters of the course. It was interesting to find out what they did and a rough daily plan of their work. We were given an insight into the importance that Television companies/corporations place on websites for programmes. With rebranding in the works, there are interesting times ahead in the S4C New Media department.
