Course Description
The intermediate Lightroom course, taught by Jeff Shaffer, builds on a viewer's knowledge of the basics starting with an in-depth dive into camera RAW settings. You will understand how camera RAW works, as well as breaking down the histogram in Lightroom, a pivotal function to balancing color within the software. Using this, you will move to understanding color balance and mixture, and how to manipulate it within your images. Using the techniques for adjusting colors, move to image adjustments like gradients and enhancements.
Once you dive deep into color and image adjustments, the course will move to further organizing your images within Lightroom. Navigation was touched on previously, and this course will expand upon that to allow for perfect navigation and organization. Learn how to work with folders, albums, and keywords for your images. Once you can organize your images within the software, learn how to share it with others with Lightroom's built in sharing functionality. All of this will prepare you to master everything Lightroom offers.
