Photoshop for beginners - Designers and Photographers

Àpd 25.68 $ /h

Photoshop is a powerful app for designers & photographers. As a designer, you'll need to be able to sort through the many complex features that will help make your photos or render images better. I've designed this course as a practical guide to Photoshop that's specifically made for beginners.
You'll learn how to make selections, create masks, retouch portraits and use techniques to not only improve designs or photographs but to turn them into entirely new images.

Most kids think coding is for "smart kids" or "future programmers."
It's not. Coding is how real people solve real problems.
In this class, we skip the theory. Your child creates real things.

What they'll do:
✓ Build real projects in Scratch: a working game, an interactive animation, a story they coded
✓ Program virtual robots: solve real-world challenges (navigate a maze, automate a task, build a system)
✓ Create in Minecraft Education: design worlds, automate constructions, solve logic problems
✓ Experiment with different languages: not just learn "the right way," but understand that there are many ways to think about a problem
✓ Collaborate and share: work with other kids, get feedback, improve their work
✓ Develop logical thinking: not just for coding, but for anything: solving math problems, science challenges, real-world situations

Why this is different:
We don't teach syntax. We teach how programmers think.
Most children's coding courses say "here's the code, copy it." We teach "what problem are we trying to solve? How could we break it into steps? What options do we have?"
When your child learns to think like a programmer, they can learn any language afterward.

What they take home:
A portfolio of 3–4 completed, working projects. The ability to say "I built this." And the deep understanding that code is a tool to make real things happen.

Format: Online or Barcelona | 60–90 min sessions | Flexible pace, no prior experience needed
For curious 8-12 year olds who want to build.

In this course, you will learn how to scan any object using Reality Capture software. This efficient and powerful software was first used for the preservation of archaeological objects and historical monuments, but is now used for video games, VFX and virtual reality, as it offers tools and results of a impressive quality, all in an easy-to-use interface.

In this course, you will be able to learn:
-How does photogrammetry work?
-How to take suitable photos
-How to prepare these photos for their use in the software
-How to use these photos to reconstruct an object in 3D and apply a realistic texture to it
-How to optimize scans for custom use (games, movies, etc.)

Gradually, we will solidify these skills to learn how to build a library of highly realistic objects based on high resolution scans.

It is also possible to present your projects to me and to obtain personalized help on them.

Would you like to be able to illustrate the worlds and stories you imagine?

Do you want to learn how to create characters for a video game, animation, children's story, comic or in any format? Or would you like to be able to draw your favorite characters?

If you have those concerns, I would love to help you.

I like to focus the classes in such a way that the current drawing level of the student is not what is important. The room for improvement will always evolve. I like to take my classes towards character design, towards general things like the psychology of color and shapes, since they are assimilable and highly useful concepts, independent of the level of drawing. For this reason, my classes are aimed at all ages and drawing levels.

I also try to focus them on the preferences and tastes of each student, showing them that everything they like, they like for a reason, that nothing is left to chance and that they can also understand how to make their drawings reflect what they want to convey. Even to create your portfolios or visual information for your own project or story.

I give private classes with students from different parts of the world, so many of my classes I have been able to do in both English and French.

I studied 2D animation in France, and thanks to this training, my work has been nourished by dynamism, storytelling, expressiveness, typical of this medium, as well as the sensitivity for color and shapes that I usually use to infuse a unique style both to my original designs as well as my fanarts.

Based on long-term experience among all audiences and in-depth knowledge of traditional or modern tools, I like to bring together all these areas to experience Art in its beautiful part of creation.

My course is focused on the desires for expression and research formulated by the students.
Nothing pleases me more than allowing you to access what attracts you most in the narrative image (comics, illustration, Concept Art).

We will address together both character issues (anatomy, stylization, etc.) and settings (perspective, landscapes, etc.).

I put the desire of my students at the heart of the learning process.

I work as a 3D generalist for cinema and/or video games, with a specialization in 3D Layout/Préviz.

During our courses, I will teach you the techniques to create your own illustrations/projects, and allow you to discover if not improve your skills in the world of 3D.
As examples, we will learn how to use software such as Blender, 3dsMAx, Photoshop, Zbrush, Substance Painter, and many others.

I am very attentive, a teacher and I will be able to guide you and support you step by step on your desires for achievements, whether for beginners who want to discover this field, up to students who need to learn to master new skills.

My classes take place as follows:
You tell me what you would like to achieve, and we will achieve it together, otherwise I will offer you a project to create in line with your desires, while taking care to explore enough aspects to prepare you for the profession.

Looking forward to meeting you, and I hope, see you soon!

Photoshop est une application exceptionnelle qui permet de modifier, corriger, sublimer les photographies. Ludique, elle permet de créer des visuels personnalisés avec un large éventail de possibilités.
Indesign est quant à elle une application plus dédiée à la mise en page créative. Avec celle-ci on peut créer son propre album photo, un cv original, flyers, affiche, etc.
Les deux programmes permettent ainsi de faire vos propres projets graphiques de la photo d'ambiance à la mise en forme. Créer ainsi vos propres cartes de remerciements, de mariage, vos invitations, etc.

The program is designed for students interested in concept art, illustration, visual storytelling, and portfolio preparation for art schools, animation/game-related programs, or independent artistic development. It follows a mentorship-based approach, combining artistic foundations, conceptual thinking, and portfolio strategy, adapted to everyone's style, vision and long-term goals.

What's in it?

PART I

1. Artistic & visual language

• Traditional drawing & illustration techniques
• Shape & form study
• Light, color & values
• Composition & visual storytelling

2. World-building & visual thinking

• Environment design (natural & built spaces)
• Props, objects, and visual detail
• Character concepts (anatomy basics, silhouettes, expression)
• Style exploration (realistic, stylized, symbolic, experimental)
• References vs originality: how to build from research without imitation

3. Cognitive & creative process

• Artistic thinking & workflow
• From idea to image
• Documentation & reference gathering
• Moodboards & visual research
• Iteration, selection, refinement
• Knowing when a piece is finished

4. Digital foundations (optional / hybrid)

• Transition from traditional to digital
• 2D digital tools & workflows
• Layer logic, brushes, textures
• Digital painting fundamentals
• Presentation-ready images
• Case studies from professional concept artists & illustrators

This section is optional and may be skipped for students with prior digital experience. In such cases, the focus will be on refining and strengthening what has already been acquired.

IMPORTANT!

All sections in Part I (artistic practice, visual language, world-building, technical and digital foundations) are approached according to the student’s existing level, from beginner to advanced. If foundational skills are already present, these areas will not be repeated mechanically; instead, the focus will shift toward portfolio development, conceptual depth, and refinement of existing work.

PART II

Portfolio development & mentorship

1. Portfolio building

• Defining the student’s artistic direction
• Selecting and developing strong themes
• Creating cohesive series, not isolated images
• Aligning personal style with academic or professional expectations
• Consistent review, feedback, and refinement

2. Application-specific support (where applicable)

• Portfolio selection & sequencing
• Artist statements or motivation letters (with visuals)
• Adapting work to specific institutions or programs
• Understanding evaluation criteria
