Just partially. Because with amorphous, natural objects like trees, the selection decision process is as follows in order of preferred method:1. Contrast-based method 2. Color-based 3. Manual (pen tool). Since I couldn't do it entirely contrast-based, it was a combination of all three methods.
Ryan, the subject matter and genre doesn't matter. The panel is suitable for everything. Actually, it is much easier to do portraits with this panel (keep in mind this is not a ' retouching panel' but a B&W processing panel) than to do architecture. If you look at one of the videos where I process still life, you can get an idea how to process organic objects. But yes, I should make a portrait tutorial too. Here's someone I know who's using the panel for portraiture instagram.com/henk_bijl/?hl=en
I'm not sure on which computer/monitor I did this video. It's partly done on a Macbook Pro and partly on a desktop with either a BenQ or Apple Thunderbolt screen.
Joel, I saw that you launched a new course called "Next Level B&W Fine Art Photography" and there is a discount if we buy it with the Artisan panel. I got all of your panels. And all your courses except the color one. Will you launch a code discount for the new course fo those who already had the Artisan Pro Panel?
We already did that last year when we launched the new video by informing all existing users of the panel about the discount for the new video. If you send me an email though I can look you up in the system and send you a code.
Having just purchased your panels, BW Artisan Pro X and Quick Mask Pro; this is a timely tutorial to support my further understand. Thanks. Sorry, I missed the discount but its all about timing. PS Any more Quick Mask Pro how-to videos planned?
Dashan, for the time being I'm trying to create more Artisan Pro tutorials and that's already time-consuming for someone who's not a videographer, but I'll be doing more on Quick Mask later this year, perhaps combined with an update to Quick Mask.
Just bought these this week, late to the party but cant wait to see what I can do. Am still a big fan of ISGM and ISGM2 so this is amazing!! Be great to understand how this fits into that workflow though, if you get the chance! thank you for your continued work, I stil have fond memories of your course in New Yorkl!
For some reason I didn't see this comment... In any case, the way the panel fits into my workflow is that it basically replaces all the manual steps I had to do in my ISGM workflow, so less PS knowledge is needed. But not only that, it also makes several adjustments more accurate and faster, and some like the Special FX is too complicated to do manually.
just subbed. hello please can u do a wildlife black and white. or low key/high key. or fine art of big animals life elephant or buffalo or lions:-) buying ur plugin now:-) thanks
This is the video that finally give my lightbulb moment.
It’s great to see you again with the new features of BW Artisan Pro X!!!
Thank you Niranjan.
Joel, you brilliantly explained the infinite possibilities with the updated BW Artisian Pro X panel (v 1.1.0).
Thank you Henk, there's so much more to it, but one video at a time.
Awesome, thanks so much, Joel. Loving the panel so far.
Happy to hear, thank you.
Thanks a lot for this tutorial, especially with the helpful little tricks! Looking forward to use it on my next projects.
Glad to hear that Holger!
Well done, nice explanation and result! Thank you Joel
Thanks Andreas - it's always a lot of work with the additional graphics. Hope that made it even easier to follow.
@@JoelTjintjelaar It's very easy to follow this way and no problem to understand. Appreciate your efforts!
Great Tutorial Joel. Did you use the Pen Tool to make your selection of the tree ? Thanks for your help.

@@JoelTjintjelaar Thanks for your help Joel.
Hi Joel, do you also do portraits with this panel?? If so, can you make a tutorial about that?

Hi Joel, I am too curious about something I consider important for editing. What monitor do you use?
