Picture This – Photo-Editing – The Essentials
Come discover the bases of computer photo-editing with professional photographer Jacques Gaines
The photography workshops with professional photographer Jacques Gaines were so popular that the Morrin Centre is offering two more (repeats of workshops from the 2022 series).
In this last workshop, Gaines will introduce the basics of computer photo-editing. We will use the free software Photopea.
Participants may either audit the workshop (attend just to watch) or bring the following items to actively participate in the exercises:
- A camera. Whether a $100 camera or a $5000 camera, we do not care. Anything goes! It can even be your phone, though it should then be a fairly recent phone.
- The picture you are most proud of. It can be a digital copy or a print. (You do not have to show it to the class).
- A laptop. You will need it to access the photo-editing software. We will give you the wifi password during the workshop.
- Several digital copies of photos you would like to edit. It’s harder to practice editing if you have nothing to edit!
Jacques Gaines has been a passionate artist his whole life. He is a photographer (of course), a singer-songwriter (his group, Soul Attorneys, even won a Canadian gold record!), and a videographer. Nowadays, he keeps on creating using even more tools to create. He now offers online courses in photography, produces artistic videos, has a YouTube channel, and still writes music. He continues on his mission to make what he has in his heart and soul the most communicable possible.
