About Workshop
Photoshop is a tool which has taken pivotal position in everyone’s life now a day. A fair bit of knowledge about the software is quintessential. The department of Information Technology has taken the pioneering step in conducting a programme on the Photoshop which will enable the attendees to address different issues ranging from photo editing to brochure designing.
The program started with the inaugural function at 9.00 A.M . Dr. Sumathi Poobal, Vice Principal, KCG College of Technology was the chief guest. She appreciated the Department for organizing such a workshop, which was indeed the need of the hour. The Head of Department, Dr. J. Frank Vijay underscored on the importance of such a programme and suggested that the idea for such a workshop came from the dependency the faculty members are showing on the students even for simplest editing jobs like designing brochures and other related items for departmental programmes and activities. He insisted the resource person to conduct the workshop in such a way where hands on experience is imparted, and inevitably after the completion of the workshop, all the faculty members who have attended the programme should be able to design a brochure by themselves.
The training session started by 9:30 A.M. Mr. Rajendran, an expert in Photoshop and Dreamweaver, and having years of vital experience set the ball rolling. His technical know-how and software prowess impressed the attendees and evidently underscored the fact in ever one’s mind that he is the right person to lead the workshop. The Photoshop section was covered in the morning session and was followed by the session on Dreamweaver in the afternoon. The portions covered broadly include:
