Gone are the days when Photoshop was only for Photography buffs or IT geeks. Today, it has become the de-facto standard of modern Creative Media industry, and everyone – from beginners, to students, to freshers, to experienced professionals, to solo-entrepreneurs to marketing heads to sales guys… almost everyone is expected to know and use Photoshop fluently.
Today they are teaching Photoshop to my Primary 4 kid in school too. And we conduct several Photoshop Training workshops for school students, ITE students, Poly students, and even Uni students to learn Photoshop, so that by the time they enter the workforce, they are well versed in using the software.
Did You Miss Out on Adobe Photoshop Training Early On?
Yet, there is a huge population who did not get a chance to learn Photoshop in school – probably because there were no computers at that time in schools, or it was too expensive, or we didn’t think we would need to learn or use Photoshop in our life… ever!
Well, we were all wrong. We thought that Photoshop was only meant for people who want to touch up their holiday photos…
However, Adobe Photoshop has grown in usage, and in its image. From being just a brightness and contrast touch-up software, it has now taken center stage among the entire world. New words like being “Photo-shopped” has appeared in our everyday vocabulary.
Adobe Photoshop is used everywhere, and by everyone!
- Every business man or business women to touch up their iPhone or Android phone photos before uploading them on to Facebook,
- Bloggers & Blog-Shop owners to take product photos, and fix them before uploading on their product websites
- Property Agents to crop, rotate, and remove unnecessary objects from property photos before uploading them on sites like PropertyGuru.com etc.
- Web Designers to create website mock-ups
- Interior designers to do model layouts,
- Create amazing info-graphics and images for uploading on social media platforms like Pinterest, Facebook etc.
- Kids & IT guys alike to create animated GIFs
- Holiday goers to touch up their holiday photos
- Wedding photographers to bulk update the white balance or remove tint, or improve brightness, sharpness, blur etc. before finalizing the photos
- Marketing folks to create marketing flyers, Electronic Direct Marketing (EDMs), and website media, banner, images to make an impressive impact on their customers and prospects
- Sales guys to beef up their product photos and sales brochures to make the killer sales presentation and wow the prospect into buying.
- Parents helping their kids to make better projects
- Advertising industry to create huge banners, posters, artwork to display all around the city and prance about in the best
- Creative people use it to make Logos, T-Shirts, Mugs, Greeting Cards and more
- Freelancers absolutely crush-it by doing simple Five Dollars jobs to literally thousands of dollars of gigs, simply by using Photoshop to the hilt.
As you can see, these are just some of the people who are using the software, and making the most out of it to make sales, make a living, make an impact and wow the world.
