Your teacher will download the image and make it available for your use in a later activity. In this lesson, you will learn about some additional coloring techniques that can be used in PhotoShop. Also, you will use different filtering techniques that can drastically change the way that an image looks. In this lesson you will use the following new tools: Rectangular Marquee Tool – This tool makes a rectangular selection (or a square if you press the Shift key). Brush Tool – This tool paints the current foreground color of an image creating soft strokes of color. Move Tool – This tool moves all items or selected items in a layer. Horizontal Type Tool – This tool allows you to add text horizontally on a page. (There is also a Vertical Type tool located under this tool.) Another Way to Color Only Certain Items in a Black & White Photograph:Open Adobe PhotoShop and open the Phone_Booth.jpg photo located in the Templates drive in PhotoShop Lessons/Lesson 3.
