Day 4 of Genius Camp was an intensive workshop on how to use Adobe Photoshop to collage and compose images. The students worked in teams to first learn the basic tools and functionality of the graphics editing program. Then they worked on creating Sci-Fi movie posters based on their photographs from the Photography Workshop earlier in the week. Throughout the day, the teams of students learned to work with the .PSD (Photoshop Document) format (Photoshop’s native format) that stores an image with many imaging options available to change and manipulate. These include layers with masks, color spaces, transparency, text, clipping paths, and duotone settings.

Here are some of the amazing Sci-Fi movie posters created by the teams!
