Projects

One of our primary goals is to provide training and support to professional photographers in the post processing of digital images. This includes file management, color and density correction, flush mount album design, greeting card design, creating a simple collage, light or heavy retouching, or even adding a texture to your images.

Here we'll look at several different ways to go about designing collages and flush mount style album pages. We'll also look at using programs such as Adobe's Photoshop CS4 and LumaPix's FotoFusion Extreme to achieve similar effects.




Our first design is a simple holiday greeting card template using a texture plug-in from Totally Rad Actions called Dirty Pictures, our splattered ink Photoshop brushes and our grunge snowflake brushes.

  What you will need to create this exact project:

  • Our grunge snow flake and ink splatter Photoshop brushes
  • The Dirty Pictures plug-in from Totally Rad Actions
  • The font, Decade, from Dafont.com
  • Any serif font (i.e. Times New Roman, Garamond, Palatino)
  • An image roughly 3.5 inches by 3.5 inches at 300 dpi
