The Application Of Photoshop In Jewelry Design

Currently, there are many kinds of jewelry design software, such as JewelCAD,Rhino,3DMax, Coreldraw, Photoshop, Computer engraving pen and so on. Despitethe advantages of3D design software can be directly applied to processing, singlefrom the perspective of jewelry creation and expression, Photoshop is become themost popular and widely used software. In spite of this, its development is still in theexploratory stage, because we can not buy any books about how to use Photoshop inthe jewelry design in the market,and the literature is less and less. So I hopes thatthrough the study and practice of many years, summed up the relationship betweenPhotoshop and jewelry design, and explain the specific operation method in theapplication process. Photoshop software in the application of jewelry mainly has threeaspects, the late jewelry pictures decorate, auxiliary jewelry creation and draw jewelryrendering.First, due to the metallic reflective and the fire of gemstone colour is hard toperfect expression with a camera, so almost all jewelry for publicity photos need to bemodified by Photoshop. Photoshop’s expertise lies in image processing, and jewelryphoto modification is used to this. The jewelry photo’s metal texture become morestrong and gem become more bright through orthopaedic, decontamination, colorcorrection and contrast enhancement by Photoshop, so the picture become moreattractive and visual impact.Second, Photoshop’s another characteristic is assist jewelry creations. Powerfulmapping functions can be easily and fast change jewelry parts and adjust themodelling of jewelry for jewelry designers. And also use the color adjustment tool forrapid changes of metal materials and gem’s color, let the designer intuitive feel theeffect of the finished product jewelry, so as to quickly modify their ideas and improvethe efficiency of the design.Third, Photoshop has the powerful drawing function. Through the study of theperformance of the metal lighting and texture techniques, plastic deformation andspecial material performance techniques, the designers can draw lifelike jewelry rendering. This not only helps designers to better display their works, but also helpcustomers intuitive feelings to the finished effect, reduce the Opportunity of thecustomer cannot read hand-painted renderings and the trouble of physical and designhave big differences.I hope that through writing this article,to let the people who want to learn how toapply the Photoshop in jewelry design can master learning methods,to let the peoplewho have been engaged in this field can learn from each other,and also hope thatsoftware developers can understand the existing defects and shortcomings of thejewelry design software, developed2D and3D graphics software integration, bothpictures and fabrication of integrated,and simple operation and strong applicability,high efficiency of jewelry design software,then promote the development of thejewelry design field.
