Photoshop: Creating Composite Images
Combining two or more image elements into a single composition in Photoshop can be great fun, and can also result in some remarkably creative images.
Combining two or more image elements into a single composition in Photoshop can be great fun, and can also result in some remarkably creative images. In this course you'll learn about the basics of assembling a wide variety of composite images.
You'll start by learning some of the fundamental concepts related to composite images. From there we'll explore some of the options for masking images "automatically", as well as for assembling specific composites such as panoramas, high dynamic range (HDR) images, and focus-stacked images.
From there you'll learn techniques that form the foundation of composite imaging, such as painting to combine images, using a selection as the basis of a layer mask, blending images seamlessly, and much more.
