Great info. The masking tools have become game changers. Put a cheap speed light behind the subject during the shoot and you won’t have to worry about this. That’s why I like grey backdrops because you can make it any color with a single light and adding a gel if you want something other than black grey or white.
Very simple process. I sometimes do the same thing in photoshop. Every now and then I’ll leave or enhance the gradation of the light on the backdrop as a way to add interest and texture to the background. Nice video as always bro ✊🏽
Super helpful. Whenever I hear people complain about Lr & Ps being $10 for a monthly sub, I laugh. Because man they really have some magical features that so many take for granted. Bargain software imo. Anyways, I really like these quickie tutorials, thanks! 👏🏻
Yeah. Really comes down to personal preference. We actually took these photos on a white backdrop and the client wanted it to be white but I do like how the natural look of light falling off and making the backdrop appear grey looks as well. what are your thoughts on the black background though?
@@RyanTroy the process for the black was very informative. it will help me with my editing. When it comes to the spot at the bottom that the mask missed, how do you make it black like the rest of the background? would you ever make a video of your whole editing process in lightroom? I like your style of videos
@@jwats5713 so the spot at the bottom was actually her pants leg and it though that it was the background which is why it made it darker. I just removed it from the mask so it wouldn’t effect her pants. And honestly my Lightroom editing process is going through my presets until I find something I like and making micro adjustments to it.
Thank you bro. I’m always looking forward to your videos. Very educative and insightful

The first picture in grey is dope, looks better than the white

Hey Ryan, do you use a grid on your softbox when shooting on a black backdrop. It will definitely help with light spill.
very true but im always using my 65 inch umbrella and that things spills light everywhere 😂
