Adobe Photoshop Exam Questions And Answers Pdf

[Magdalen Jhonston]

Ideallyyou want to get hold of the ACE sample exam & study guides for the product versions you are testing for. It doesn't hurt to know previous versions but be keenly aware of the differences in menus, filters, etc...

Have you ever taken any Adobe exams either ACE or ACA? In the past, they tested on your knowledge of the software and it's various features. You might also expect hypothetical questions on using Smart Objects, Puppet Warp and 3D tools to name a few.

The ACE exams are really difficult because they cover at random EVERY aspect of Adobe Software and they become harder last years. Even if you think to perfectly know the software, at least 10 questions are extremely difficult and with multiple answers, and you need to read them VERY slowly if you are not english native (if you are english native...You have really few time to answer!30 minutes less than non english)

Memorize all the menus and all the options of PS, especially those related to Selections and Paths (the most difficult because during the exam you cannot draw but you have only text in front of you!), Camera Raw and all the shortcuts.

Using the software for work for a couple of years everyday is a big help + Adobe Classroom book (last version, CS6 is damn old...At the moment the ACE is about the CC 2013 version so no 3D questions) + Photoshop CC The Missing Manual book could be the right way to pass the exam at first shot.

You cannot possibly pass an exam which tests the current version if you only use CS6. Of course CS6 is excellent preparation but you need to use the version tested... An ACE is expected to be a complete expert, not stuck years in the past. You should read all the books you can obtain, but years of professional experience are also needed, preferably including real world prepress as well as photography. But this is not enough. Do you know what EVERY TOOL does? What EVERY BUTTON AND MENU does? What EVERY OPTION DOES? You need an enquiring mind and willingness to play with it all.

Hi this is the best resource ever for this: Adobe Certified Expert (ACE) & Adobe Certified Associate (ACA) Exam Guides - Examaids Ltd

The exam it self in my experience is not complicated, you have juts to know Photoshop as your hands. Study the Help Files in Photoshop in order to pass the exam but with the Exam Test I linked you , you can try from home the test, see the right answers and train your self very fast.

The "In A Class Room" books are very well done but they are not ideal for the ACE exam.

One more thing. You will of course have read and understood every word of the help files. If you do not understand the help files and cannot learn from them, you are not ready for the exam this year. But read many books to get different insights.

The books are important but not for the exam. You need to be years past the learning of Photoshop phase. Read all the Photoshop books you can, because they will help you learn every Photoshop button, menu, filter and problem. Every Photoshop task and limitation. When you can see the mistakes and assumptions in the books, you might be ready for the test.

"We are constantly adding questions to our resources and monitoring those already written, since every update brings the possibility of subtle changes to the UI of the Adobe software." Howard @ iPassExam.

What you say will just confuse would-be-candidates. Once an exam is released, only errors are fixed by Adobe. For example, Photoshop CC has been updated many times since it was released but the corresponding exam has not.

If you are including features from the updates in your services, you will just force candidates to study areas they will not encounter (e.g., Artboards, Recent Files, custom toolbars, etc, etc, and so forth).

Are you a photography student working on a school project about interesting photographers? I'm frequently contacted by college students who want to learn more about my photography. I'm also contacted by beginner photographers who are just getting started and are seeking guidance and direction. Many of the questions I receive are very insightful and really make me think about how and why I create art. I try to respond to every inquiry that comes my way, since I know how important it is to support students while they are developing their skills.

In this blog article, you will find a list of questions from photography students and my answers. I hope the responses help provide some insight into my photography and creative process. The questions and answers are arranged into four groups: art and photography, photography gear/software/printing, the creative process, and general photography advice. If you have a question that isn't covered here, please don't hesitate to ask me a question.

Answer: Excellent question! Photography provides me with a medium to expressively communicate my feelings about experiences in the wilderness. Sometimes I find words are inadequate to describe these emotions, but photography provides a way for me to effectively express myself. My goal is to convey a feeling of peaceful calm through my photographs and to make the viewer feel some of that positive energy. I am passionate about creating large fine art prints of my photography and I am always excited when someone connects with my artistic vision and considers hanging a print on their wall.

Answer: Fine art photography is created by artists who use the medium of photography to expressively communicate an idea, mood, or emotion. This is quite different from documentary/representational photography, which is used to portray a subject in a literal and objective way. Documentary photography is all about the subject, whereas fine art photography is all about the artist and how they see the world.

Answer: I currently use a variety of professional grade, full frame Nikon dSLR and mirrorless camera bodies and Nikkor lenses. I also occasionally use drones for aerial photography. These cameras and lenses allow me to capture high resolution / high-definition photos that are ideal for creating large fine art prints. Since I use high quality cameras and lenses, the enlarged prints are not grainy or pixelated.

Answer: Good cameras for beginners include: iPhones, point and shoots, and entry level digital SLR/mirrorless cameras. Ultimately it depends on what you want to do with your images after you capture them. If you want to make big prints to hang on the wall, a digital SLR/mirrorless camera is a good choice. If you will only be posting images online, an iPhone or a point and shoot camera are good choices.

Answer: Yes. I use a combination of Adobe Lightroom and Adobe Photoshop to develop my images. I capture my images in the RAW file format, so they must be post processed before I can share them with my audience. Almost all photographers use photoshop to fine tune their images. Some use photoshop just a little and others use it much more. It depends on what you are trying to achieve with your art.

Answer: In 2023, it seems like you can print on almost anything. I've tried many different types of prints and my favorites are: TruLife Acrylic Prints, ChromaLuxe Metal Prints and Fine Art Paper Prints. If you want to see my descriptions of each of these print types, you can check out my Limited Edition Fine Art Prints page.

Answer: My goal is to use photography to expressively communicate my feelings about an experience in the wilderness. I view photography as a form of art and I focus on capturing the mood/emotion of a place rather than a literal translation. I spend time searching for strong compositions that interact with the light in a compelling way and try to create depth by using transitions to give my photos a 3D feel. I previsualize about 10% of my images and the other 90% are created by working with the conditions, the light and what I'm feeling inside at that moment.

Answer: I use a 2 step process each time I post process an image. Step 1 focuses on the science of photography. In this step, I am processing to overcome the limitations of the camera/lens using the following techniques: blending for dynamic range, focus stacking, merging panoramas and reducing noise in night images. Step 2 focuses on the art of photography. In this step, I use the post processing tools to expressively and creatively develop the image into a completed photograph. I don't use any presets or shortcuts since I want to have full control over the final image.

Answer: There are several compositional techniques that I use in my photos. Notice I did not call these compositional rules. There are no rules in art and sometimes breaking the rules can lead to a compelling photograph. When you are first starting out, these techniques can help provide a more structured approach to photographing in the field. Below is a list of compositional techniques to help get you started:

Answer: There are several ways to make money through landscape photography including: print sales, image licensing, teaching photography workshops and commissioned photography for magazines or websites. For my business, I primarily earn money from print sales and image licensing agreements.

Answer: In the mid 2000s I was doing a lot of backpacking and hiking in my free time. I would often bring a point and shoot camera along on these journeys, so I could share the photos with friends and family when I returned home. I really enjoyed photographing nature, but quickly became frustrated by the disconnect between what the camera captured versus what I experienced in the wilderness. In 2008, I stumbled across the stunning landscape photography of Marc Adamus and I decided to focus on improving my photography skills. After studying Marc's work, I realized the best way to improve was to start learning landscape photography techniques and to upgrade my equipment to a digital SLR camera and lenses. After many years of practice (and lots of frustration), I learned the key elements of composition and how to use camera field techniques and processing methods to give my images depth and 3 dimensionality. I also learned how to read the weather and the light to determine the best times to photograph my subjects. After obtaining these skills, I noticed I could finally use my photography to communicate the emotions I experienced while traveling through the wilderness. In 2022, I continue to refine my creative process and artistic vision.
