WHAT ARE WE LEARNING: Adobe Photoshop
WHY IS IT IMPORTANT: Adobe Photoshop, computer application software used to edit and manipulate digital images. Photoshop was developed in 1987 by the American brothers Thomas and John Knoll, who sold the distribution license to Adobe Systems Incorporated in 1988.
HOW WILL MY TEACHER KNOW WHAT I LEARNED: You will practice different tools and techniques and gradually show your success!
Shortcut: Shift + Ctrl + S
(or File: SAVE AS)
Save as Type: PHOTOSHOP!
Then click Save to Cloud Documents
Save to CREATIVE CLOUD!
Click the Save to CREATIVE CLOUD button
Name the photo:
"Your Initials POPCORN"
Click SAVE
Add your name!
On the First Last Name layer...double click the "T" Thumbnail to highlight the text and type your name in the text box on the artboard
(technically you are adding your signature!)
Tip: The lines around each piece of Popcorn are made with a path
These are here to show you where each piece is during this process!
Let's add some pop...
The file has 3 layers, the layer for your name, the KERNELS layer and the POPCORN layer.
Select the POPCORN layer and create a layer mask by clicking the Create Layer Mask Icon at the bottom of the Layers Panel
Invert the mask, by selecting the mask thumbnail and clicking Ctrl + i (Mask thumbnail should be black)
Notice the "Paths" still show where the popcorn actually is on the layer!
Sneak a Peak...
Select the LAYER MASK on the POPCORN layer
Chose the Brush tool, and set the foreground color to WHITE.
Then, paint over kernal on the top left corner (on the mask) to reveal the first piece of popcorn.
Tip: Make sure you have the LAYER MASK selected
You will see the white keyline around the mask when it is selected.
Remember WHITE reveals and BLACK conseals!
Reveal in stages...
This step takes time! Duplicate the layer where the first popcorn kernel was revealed...
Ctrl+J or drag the layer to the (+) at the bottom of the Layers Panel.
Then, paint with a WHITE (white is the foreground color) brush to reveal more popcorn!
Repeat this step (example: Duplicate the layer where the second popcorn kernel was revealed, click on the layer mask, with white, paint so the popcorn kernel to reveal) until you have a lot of layers (at least 50! 1 for each piece of popcorn revealed!) and all of the popcorn from the layer below is visible.
Tip:
When brushing to show the popcorn make sure to paint over the kernals beside the popcorn also!
Before:
After:
Note the kernals are gone beside the popped corn!
After each piece reveal...
Ctrl + J to Duplicate that layer!
Make sure to then select the new layer's layer mask!
YOU WILL HAVE APPROXIMATELY 50 LAYERS...1 for each piece of popcorn! (yes it's alot!)
When you are done masking the layers...
