For PS lovers (such as me) who have no art foundation and poor divergent thinking and give you a blank canvas. I feel that the threshold of PS is very high, and my heart is empty every time I open PHOTOSHOP software. It seems that there has always been a big mountain in your heart. You feel unprepared, and I have always felt this way. So I put forward some views for your reference.

I. Attitude and purpose

1. We learn PS so that we can work in an advertising company without involving artistic creation (such as painting in PS). I've never known this before. ) and the kind of "painting" of industrial design mode is of no practical value.

Don't try to draw anything on the canvas. PS is a digital graphics technology. For example, if you want to draw a Pentagon, you can find the shape in the software. All you have to do is drag, deform, zoom in and out, fill, change color and so on.

At first, filtering and imitating the tutorial won't do you any good. You should start basic training first.

Second, purposeful training.

I always advocate "training" in everything. Exercise as a child, leg press, morning running. Later, learning English was also a kind of training. Gifted things are not for everyone. So we must carry out targeted training. In the past, when training a skill, a detailed timetable was often drawn up. For example, when to finish dozens of push-ups, several groups in each group. We learn PS, why don't we start systematic training? You know, the piecemeal experience gained by watching tutorials in a bubble forum can't support a complete technical system.

I think the basic training in the following three aspects is more important.

1. Modeling ability

A. Many beautiful shapes can be made through various modes of the constituency.

B strengthen the training of pen tools (thoroughly understand the principle and insist on digging 10 drawings with a pen every day)

C. combination of points, lines and surfaces. Arrange and combine these basic elements. Then turn these points, lines and surfaces into concrete graphic elements.

D. sensitive to size. It is customary to use reference lines as auxiliary lines. Strive for accuracy. You will know the importance of this habit when you make samples in the future.

E. Others to be added

The training and cultivation of modeling ability is very important. You don't want to do anything, just start to understand and deepen the basic modeling. Because only in this way can you be handy in the future.

2. Color application

The very important feature of A. PS is color. You can start training in this area.

B. filling. It is also a very important basic quality, such as gradual change, circle and so on. Anyway, you can fill it in another way. Then fill in the constituency, fill in all kinds of constituencies, tirelessly. We see that many effects are actually the rational use of filling. So it is very important to master the importance of filling.

C remember one sentence: red, yellow, blue and green. As long as there are these four colors. It's fantastic.

D. buy a small diary. Record: What color? What color? It looks good.

E. that's all for the time being, and others need to be added.

3. Grasp the whole project (obscure, but don't know what words are appropriate)

A. When you open the software, you should know where I can find the function I need.

B. What is the status of the panel on the right? .

C. think carefully about an effect. Is there any other way to achieve it?

D spend some time trying to understand conceptual things (such as channels, curves, masks, etc.). ).)

E. that's all for the time being, and others need to be added.

3. Improve in actual combat

Many people agree with this. Apply what you have learned, see more, do more and think more. At the beginning, we must put our minds right. It's no use watching CG made by those masters to improve our technology. What we need is to master the most basic instructions under the powerful digital machine PS. Instead of using this machine to produce our patented products. Of course, if the product can be produced that day, then put it into production as soon as possible. .....
