Adobe post processing techniques using a Wacom with Rocco Ancora

This presentation is aimed at two types of people: those who are considering the purchase of a Wacom Tablet and want to make sure it's a good fit for them; and those who own a Wacom Tablet but feel like they aren't taking full advantage of it. In this course you will learn the advantages of using a Tablet, tips for getting comfortable with the Tablet, how to customise your settings for the Pen, Express Keys, and how to use your Tablet with Photoshop and Lightroom to be more accurate and save time.

Photographers at all levels will have an opportunity to sharpen their post-production skills by attending this presentation dedicated exclusively to teaching the latest techniques, shortcuts, and new features available in Photoshop and Lightroom. Not only will you learn the latest Adobe features but you will also be taught how to increase your speed and productivity by doing all this with the help of a Wacom tablet.

Join Rocco Ancora as he explores a world of new possibilities and digital imaging practices. He will demonstrate how to prepare high-quality images in Adobe Photoshop and Lightroom, and how to establish an efficient editing workflow using Wacom products to help improve techniques, speed and quality in the final edit.
