MJ Week 4 Class Notes
Today we start the class with veteran photographer Siuki Yip, who will discuss what makes a good news photograph. He will take a look at some of the photographs you posted to the NMW Flickr group and pick out a few examples for discussion about what works and what doesn’t work.
We will then go through a quick and dirty Photoshop tutorial to make sure that everybody knows how to crop, adjust, resize, and save their photos for the web.
Other important Photoshop how-to’s from the J-lab:
Preparing Images and Photos for the Web
Checking and Changing Resolution
Getting Familiar with Photoshop I
Getting Familiar with Photoshop II
Editing Photographs
We will then upload our properly cropped and resized photos onto our blogs, and learn a little bit about custom formatting with a little HTML.
