Lab C Overview
Overview
In Lab C, you will learn about lighting effects found in Photoshop and you will apply different lighting effects using a filter. It is important to note that once a filter has been applied to a photo, it is not adjustable and the effect is applied directly to the active layer - making duplilcating the background layer of your photos extremely important!
There may be instances when you need to apply a lighting effect to brighten a part of a photograph or to create a dramatic lighting effect with color or you may want to add text to an image; this lab will show you how to do exactly that.
