Typography

Hello all-

As most of you will find, once you understand the basics of Photoshop and how to work with your brush presets, the rest will fall into place quite quickly. As you prepared for the mad rush of getting your portrait done. Use the step by step tutorial handout available in class if you find yourself getting lost. 


When you are working on them, remember to set several words as brushes before you start filling in your tones and shades (grays & blacks). This will make the process much simpler and easier overall for you. Once you've done that, it's just a matter of "select similar" for your layers and putting in your words. 

NOTE: Keep your white area, WHITE. Do NOT fill it in with words. The contrast will enhance and sharpen your portrait. If you fill it in, it will just add noise and distract from the piece.
