Using free online and feature-rich software, we will explore the tools and core fundamentals involved in photo editing and poster design. Led by Wesley, who has a background in digital art and music across various software, the course is intended to be a fun and engaging class for beginners.

On the course you will learn various skills and techniques, including contrast and colour tweaking, layer composition and manipulation, artistic filter effects, photo retouching, working with text, collage assembly, and object removal.
