About This Course

Photo Editing & Advanced Image Manipulation is a practical, project-based course designed for students who want to develop professional image-editing skills using Adobe Photoshop. The program begins with essential Photoshop workflows and progressively moves into advanced retouching, compositing, color correction, creative manipulation, image restoration and professional production techniques.

The course is designed around a simple principle: professional photo editing is not only about knowing Photoshop tools; it is about understanding how images are constructed, how light and color behave, how visual elements interact and how editing decisions support the intended communication. Students therefore learn both the technical tools and the visual judgment required to produce convincing results.
