Hello everyone and welcome back.
And this lecture we're going to talk about the image menu keyboard shortcuts.
So let's head over to photoshop.
If you're not already there I actually still have untitled for up on the screen.
Here's how many I control.
Ask to save because I see this little star here which means I need to save some.
OK.
And we're going to talk about this menu right here.
So they have quite a few shortcuts here.
There's some in there.
So an adjustment so we're going to be doing a couple of adjustments first.
Then we're going to auto tone and an image size and camera size.
OK.
So that's pretty much going to be this lecture.
So the first thing I want to do is I want to give this kind of a wild background some unlock this layer.
I mean given a red background with yellow.
And the first thing we're going to do is we're going to go to the adjustments.
OK.
And so we're going to adjust the levels.
So I'm going to control Al and we're going to put this on preview and what you can do is when we start
moving stuff around here you can see what's going on over here.
OK.
That's why I picked a darker color because it's easier to see what we're doing.
So if I go like this and move this this way then you can see OK.
That's what it's doing.
All right.
So if I had OK then save that.
That's the levels OK.
Control em to go to the curves OK.
And same thing we're going to leave the preview on and then we're just going to move stuff around.
You're going to see it's going to change the color.
OK.
So we can move it a little bit up or down we can also move it this way as well.
OK so that's the curves.
The next thing we're going to talk about is control you which is the human saturation.
So you can really change is up a lot just with the U.N. saturation.
So we can make a darker.
And we can go this way.
You know
OK.
Then we can do color balance so if I had control B now I can do color balance so I can move the colors
this way that way
lighter
Mario.
OK.
OK we can also do black and white.
So if I do I'll shift control and be
then what it's going to do is make the background black or a darker color and then you can edit the
I mean you could so I did it more but it essentially is making it that color black and white are darkening.
I should say to invert we're going to have control.
I saw invert is going to do the opposite of what we have.
There's someone who controls ze to undo that to D saturate.
We're gonna head shift control you
supposedly that work on this is on the
yep that worked OK.
I want to make sure to do auto tone.
We're gonna do shift control l.
OK.
Now this is not really a good image for that.
So what I want to do is have control and we're going to do untitled five and I'm going to
give this kind of a let's make a new layer here.
Grab the brush and I won't do this and that.
And then let's do the back round and unlock that and go to a gradient and just kind of do that and then
we'll change this.
Delete this one yes.
And then I'm going to make a new layer and give it a white brush and then do that.
And now we're gonna do auto tone.
So if we do shift control L if we do shift control Al it's going to auto tone this.
Now this is really better for an image.
So here's what I want you to do.
We're gonna go to your favorite Web browser or whatever that is Google Chrome Firefox.
We're going to go to Google and I'm a type in landscape
and we're gonna go to images and just grab this image here OK.
I'm going to save as right to the desktop close out your browser and then had control Oh and bring that
photo in.
There you go.
Beautiful.
Now if I do the same shortcut of shift control l it's going to auto towns.
You can see what it did here I'm going to have controls it undo.
OK so it set the auto tone from a read.
Do that.
OK.
We can also do auto contrast.
We can do alter shift control Al.
OK.
And then shift control be for auto color so you can see it changes again.
And if you didn't see it.
I'll do it and then we'll redo what we just did so we can see it.
OK.
So that that is the keyboard shortcuts for adjustments and also for auto tone auto contrast and color
and it's really better for images that you've taken of an environment somewhere.
This is not really a good use for those tools because there's nothing to auto tone.
It's already got everything it needs.
So I'm going to save this.
Control us and then close this one out with control W and then this image when I want to do is I want
to look at the image size so we're going to hit all control Al.
No that's the wrong one.
I'll control.
I know and you're going to see the image size here.
So we have the original size and it's in inches right now.
So if we want to change that to pixels it's a thousand pixels by six hundred and sixty seven pixels
and it's seventy two DPA or the resolution is 72 dots per inch.
So it's a lower rez image so I'm ahead it.
OK.
Now if we wanted to see the canvas size we're going had all control see and now we can see what the
size is the canvas of the background of this so there's two different there's a differentiation between
the canvas size and the image size the canvas size.
If I change this to twelve hundred K we're going to have space on the right in the left.
And then if I had all control again and see
I hit the right keys that we go and I did twelve hundred here.
OK we're gonna have space the top and the bottom everywhere because the image itself this image if we
look at it again all control I am not like spinning l My apologies the the width and the height of this
is only twelve hundred.
OK.
Now it's gone up but when we looked at it before it was not twelve hundred twelve hundred.
So we can actually shrink this down.
We could do six hundred by six hundred.
OK
and we keep the cameras the way it is.
OK.
So that's the difference between image size and camera size.
But again I want to focus on the keyboard shortcuts and that's why it's important to understand is because
if you're working with law images you want to use a lot of these keyboard shortcuts you're going to
use levels curves hue and saturation and color balance black and white invert these saturate auto tone
auto contrast of color are commonly used tools that quickly get your images where they need to be right
away and then if you if the just the image size or the canvas size then you can do that.
So thanks for watching.
I'll see in the next lecture.
