Photoshop is essential for most modern visual jobs. As the name indicates, photographers use Photoshop to adjust their photos. Graphic designers use Photoshop to create and edit images, then open up those files or elements in a program like Illustrator, which is better geared toward layout. Web and app designers use Photoshop to create sample images and plan their designs. User Interface, or UI, designers also use Photoshop. They create designs that show their plan for a customer interface and how it will look. Designers of all stripes, from fashion to product, might use Photoshop. A fashion or product designer can use it to create style boards and designs for their work. Game designers may use Photoshop to create 2D and 3D characters and settings. Many jobs with a visual component use Photoshop.
