You'll start by getting to know Adobe Photoshop's interface and its main tools. You'll learn to manage and combine documents, work with layers and selections. Plus, another thing that's essential for this type of project: masks.
Then you'll dive into the world of photomontage and learn image size and resolution fundamentals. Also, you'll learn to use transformations so that you can portray anything that you set your mind to.

PlusExcelente curso para aquellos que recién empiezan con Photoshop. Cubre las herramientas y conceptos básicos y esenciales para moverse por el programa. Curso muy recomendado si queres aprender desde cero como usar Photoshop sin tener conocimientos previos. Recomendación de complementarlo luego con el de Photoshop avanzado para profundizar aún más en el uso de herramientas y y posibilidades que ofrece el programa.
