The document outlines the processes and tools involved in photo editing, covering both traditional methods and modern graphic software, including types of images like raster and vector. It discusses essential features of image editors such as selection tools, layers, resizing, cropping, and image manipulation techniques. Additionally, it differentiates between photo editing and photo manipulation, highlighting the importance of infographics in presenting information visually.

1. Imaging and design for online
environment

2. Photo editing
Photo editing encompasses the processes of altering
images, whether they are digital photographs,
traditional photo chemical photographs, or
illustrations. Traditional analog image editing is known
as photo retouching, using tools such as an airbrush
to modify photographs, or editing illustrations with
any traditional art medium.

3. Graphic software programs
Which can be broadly grouped into
vector graphics editors, raster
graphics editors, and 3D modelers
are the primary tools with which a
user may manipulate, enhance, and
transform images. Many image
editing programs are also used to
render or create computer art from
scratch.

4. BASIC OF IMAGE EDITING
RASTER IMAGES-are stored in a computer in the
form of a grid of picture elements or pixels.
VECTOR IMAGES-such as Adobe Illustrator, Inkscape and etc.
are used to create and modify vector images, which are
stored as descriptions of lines, Bezier curves and text instead
of pixels.

6. 3D MODELING (OR MODELLING)
is the process of developing a mathematical representation of
any three dimensional surface of an object via specialized
software. The product is called a 3D model. It can be displayed
as a two-dimensional image through a process called 3D
rendering or used in a computer simulation or physical
phenomena. The model can also be physically created using 3D
printing devices.

8. FEATURES OF IMAGE
EDITORS

9. SELECTION
One of the prerequisites for many of the app
mentioned below is a method of selecting part(s)
of an image, thus applying a change selectively
without affecting the entire picture

10. MARQUEE TOOL for selecting rectangular or other regular
polygon-shaped regions
LASSO TOOL for freehand selection of a region
MAGIC WAND TOOL selects objects or regions in the image
defined by proximity of color or luminance

11. LAYERS
which are analogous to sheets of transparent
acetate, stacked on top of each other, each
capable of being individually positioned, altered
and blended with the layers below, w/o affecting
any of the elements on the other layers.

12. IMAGE SIZE
resize images in a process often called image
scaling, making them larger, or smaller. High
image resolution cameras can produce large
images which are often reduced in size for
Internet use.

13. CROPPING
creates a new image by selecting a desired
rectangular portion from the image being cropped.
The unwanted part of the image is discarded.
Image cropping does not reduce the resolution of
the area cropped.

14. CLONING
uses the current brush to copy from an
image or pattern. It has many uses: one of
the most important is to repair problem
areas in digital photos.

15. IMAGE ORIENTATION
image editors are capable of altering an image to be
rotated in any direction and to any degree. Mirror
images can be created and images can be
horizontally flipped or vertically flopped. Rotated
image usually require cropping afterwards, in order
to remove the resulting gaps at the image edges.

16. PERSPECTIVE
is the art of drawing solid objects on a
two- dimensional surface so as to give
the right impression of their height,
width, depth and position in relation to
each other when viewed from a
particular point

18. SHARPENING AND SOFTENING
Sharpening makes images clearer. Too much
sharpening causes grains on the surface of
the image. Softening makes images softer
that removes some of the highly visible flaws.
Too much causes the image to blur.

19. SATURATION
is an expression for the relative bandwidth
of the visible output from a light source. As
saturation increase, colors appear more
“pure.’’ As saturation decreases, colors
appear more ‘’ washed-out.’’

20. CONTRAST AND BRIGHTENING
Contrast of images and brighten or darken the image.
Underexposed images can be often be improved by
using this feature.
Brightening lightens the image so the photo brightens
up. Brightness is a relative expression of the intensity
of the energy output of a visible light source.
Adjusting contrast means adjusting brightness
because they work together to make a better image.

21. PHOTO MANIPULATION
Photo manipulation involves transforming or altering
a photograph using various methods and techniques
to achieve desired results. Some photo manipulations
are considered skillful artwork while others are
frowned upon as unethical practices, especially when
used to deceive the public, such as hat used for
political propaganda , or to make a product or person
look better.

22. THE DIFFERENCE OF PHOTO EDITING AND
PHOTO MANIPULATION

23. PHOTO EDITING – signifies the regular
process used to enhance photos and to
create them ‘’Actual editing simple
process’’. Also includes some of the
regular programs used for editing and
expose how to use them.

24. PHOTO MANIPULATION – includes all simple
editing techniques and have some
manipulation techniques like erasing, adding
objects , adding some graphical effects,
background correction, creating incredible
effect, change elements in an image, adding
styles , eliminating blemishes from a person’s
face and changing the features of a person’s
body.

25. Infographics
also known as data visualization, information design, and
communication design
It is any graphic that display and explains information, whether that be
data or words. When we use the term ‘’infographics’’, we’re using it as
a general term used to describe data presented in a visual way.
Infographics are important because they change the way people find
and experience stories. Infographics are being used to augment
editorial content on the web, it create a new way of seeing the world
of data, and they help communicate complex ideas in a clear and
beautiful way.
