I’m showing other staff some basic Photoshop stuff in September and made this guide type thing. I thought I’d post it in case anyone else might want it. I’d appreciate any feedback for this so I can iron out any problems before Sept.

To make a Sci Fi creature image from photographic portrait. With a newly made instructional Powerpoint (June 2018) added and example Powerpoint. (Worksheet is probably redundant, all info on new powerpoint) Worked well with Y9 and 10.

Photoshop, posterising and making Warholesque image.

Powerpoint showing how to use Photoshop to make a machine/animal image to be traced and developed using traditional media. Worked well with year eights. With contents page to enable independent learning.

A worksheet showing a good way to add shading to an eye drawing.

Step by step process of shading a nose to make it look 3D.

Powerpoint showing how to make a printable animation. Worked well with conident year 11’s.

I’m currently working on this with year 8 kids and its going really well. (I prepared it in August so this is the first time I’ve tried it) Resources required are hot glue guns, large(ish) scissors, cardboard, summat for eyes and painting gear. I,m differentiating by allowing students to make simpler versions.
