For the last few years access to Adobe software like Photoshop and Illustrator has been limited to a handful of computers on campus. This summer that will change as the university signs a campus license for all software packages in Adobe Creative Cloud. Students and faculty wanting to learn advanced video editing on Premiere or photo editing in Lightroom will now have much wider access.<\/p>\n
The Creative Cloud for Enterprise license includes the following software packages<\/p>\n
\u2022\u00a0 Photoshop CC<\/strong>\u00a0 \u2013\u00a0 image editing<\/p>\n \u2022\u00a0 Illustrator CC<\/strong>\u00a0 \u2013\u00a0 illustration\/drawing<\/p>\n \u2022\u00a0 InDesign CC\u00a0<\/strong> \u2013\u00a0 page design\/layout<\/p>\n \u2022\u00a0 Acrobat Pro<\/strong>\u00a0 \u2013\u00a0 PDF creation<\/p>\n \u2022\u00a0 Premiere Pro CC\u00a0<\/strong> \u2013\u00a0 video editing<\/p>\n \u2022\u00a0 After Effects CC\u00a0<\/strong> \u2013\u00a0 motion graphics<\/p>\n \u2022\u00a0 Lightroom CC\u00a0<\/strong> \u2013\u00a0 photo editing<\/p>\n \u2022\u00a0 Dreamweaver CC\u00a0<\/strong> \u2013\u00a0 web design<\/p>\n To celebrate the arrival of Adobe CC to campus, the Learning Studio is highlighting two ways you can get started with the Adobe design and media collection.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n Lynda.com<\/span>\u00a0 \u2013\u00a0 If you have some time this summer and want a quick introduction to an Adobe title taught by professionals, Lynda.com is a great place to start. Visit (and bookmark) www.lynda.com\/portal\/acu<\/a><\/strong> and search for courses on the CC or Creative Cloud title you’re interested in.<\/p>\n Most major titles have an extensive introduction course, often called “Essential Training” that provides detail on most any feature, or you might look for courses focused on an area of interest:\u00a0 “Photoshop for Photographers” or “Photoshop for Designers.”<\/p>\n Another option is to look for short, practical tutorials that do something you want to do like colorizing a photograph or enhancing a sunset photo, though these quick tips often assume you know your away around the main tools.<\/p>\n .<\/span><\/p>\n LS workshops\u00a0<\/span> \u2013\u00a0 This summer and fall the Learning Studio will also offer hands-on workshops introducing key Adobe titles. If you’re familiar with the basics of photo or video editing and are ready to work with advanced tools, we’ll lead a variety of half-day workshops that get you creating quickly.<\/p>\n So that we can focus our initial workshops around faculty interest, fill out the following Google Form to let us know what software you’d like to work with first.<\/p>\n
