Exclusively at The Mac Support Store Saturday Feb. 23 at 3:00PM-5:30PM David Biedny is the primary author of the very first book ever written about Photoshop, and was acknowledged in the Photoshop 1.0 manual. His last book, Photoshop Channel Chops (New Riders), is often cited as one of the most influential books ever written about Photoshop, as well as becoming the most collectible book in computer trade book history. He was a Founding Editor of the original MacUser magazine, and is currently a Contributing Editor for MacLife magazine. He created digital special effects at Industrial Light & Magic for motion pictures including "Terminator 2: Judgement Day", "Memoirs of an Invisible Man", "Star Trek 6: The Undiscovered Country", "The Rocketeer" and "Hook". His former company, IDIG, broke records in 1997 for creating 35 digital effects shots in 35 days for the movie "Spawn". He has taught at the School of Visual Arts, NYU, Stanford University, San Francisco State University, and many others, and is currently a Lecturer at Yale University. David's two-hour lecture will take a close look at maximizing Photoshop as the primary tool in the process of post-production of photographic images, helping you gain a clear understanding of the deeper aspects of using Photoshop to make your pictures stand out from the herd. Regardless of whether you use a cheap, low megapixel consumer model, or a top-of-the-line digital SLR, you’re sure to learn something new about Photoshop in this dynamic session taught by the guy who wrote both the first book, as well as the most collectible book, on the graphics wonder known as Photoshop.
