Nice to see your tutorial again. Thank you for all the retouching lessons
Clever uses for the gradient map. Thanks.
Great tutorial. Thanks!
Fantastic Michael! Thank you!
Very welcome Bart, cheers!
Super helpful!
Thanks so much...love learning new techniques! I'm rather new to Photoshop, but if I keep starting and stopping your video I can figure it out! Did you end up including a gradient map base action? I'll make my own otherwise :)
That's a good trick. Thanks for the video
Good narration.
Hi Michael, could you please share the action? Thank you.
amazing lesson) wish to be your model)
Thank u ♥
Gradient map is super useful tool. Especially with soft light blending mode for color grading. It wasn't shown in this video, but try it out if you didn't! Set the gradient map to soft light mode and play with the colors on the both black and white ends. It's awesome for color grading. Go play!
+1 for the action, Michael. Thanks for sharing!
Very good, thank you|
Thank you so Michael for the very informative tutorial on color grading with GM, I always learn a lot from your tutorials! God bless you and good luck!
WOOOW just came across to meet your tutorial here and trust me, am already loving you. Thanks much ..You will be my coach now!!!
0:54 They are not random. Gradient Map selects whatever your foreground/background colours are set to. Great tutorial. I always enjoy your presentation! Cheers, Michael!
You have excellent teaching ability with a very pleasant, clear, concise presentation voice going through your explanations. Thank you so much!
Ohhhh
your PS layout was so small that i couldn't see and follow you...
Lovely straight forward video, thank you so much!
I'm very creative, I know it too
Is there any way to recreate this with Capture One?
Great. never actually realized i could action the additional control points (obvious now i think about it). will improve my workflow ;)
Awsome! Thank you
+1 for the action!!! :)
Awesome technique, I'll give it a go right now! Thank you.
Thank you so much for this tutorial. Just exactly what I need.
THX ! This is a nice tool to play around.
Hi Michael, perhaps I am missing something but I don't understand why adding two extra control points (which just adjust black & white clipping points) give you any different result that that which you would get by just adjusting the black & white points to the same positions. Can you elaborate?
It's so that you can better fine tune where the transition happens. If you slide the end points you are stuck with a cutoff of black or white, whereas with the points you can add whatever shade of grey you would like to have.
@@MichaelWoloszynowicz But surely everything to the left and right of your two control points is going to be pure black and pure white? As such, can you please explain how this differs from just dragging the original two black and white points in to the desired amount?
Thanks bro ♥️ 🇲🇦
Thank You!
Thanks!
Thank you Michael! :)
Excellent video which explains perfectly this technique.
Glad you found it helpful Rolf, cheers!
Benefits to this method over others like lightroom sliders?
Not sure which Lightroom sliders you are referring to. I don't know of any sliders in Lightroom or Capture One that achieve a similar effect.
please do a tutorial o how you post images in Instagram in that much quality. and a tutorial on how to create a grain.
I still use the same approach I showed in a past video here. Nothing has changed :)
@@MichaelWoloszynowicz thank ypu so much i always love your work and always love you well explained tutorials.
Very useful and professional. As always.
Thanks for the kind words! Cheers
Thank you for the interesting content. Nice to learn new things in your channel.
You're most welcome. Thanks for watching.
Thank you for the tutorial! I am very curious, what kind of camera system do you use recently? if that is not a secret :)
I use a Phase One IQ250 medium format with prime lenses :) Thanks
@@MichaelWoloszynowicz Your skill combined with a Phase one IQ250 is absolutely phenomenal!! Thank you very much for the reply. I will be looking forward for your future contents! Cheers :)
Thank you, Michael!
Never knew about this technique.
I would love to see a tutorial explaining how is possible to achieve the skin texture from Tamara William's photos (ig: tamarawilliams1). There are pores and texture where I dont think can be so defined naturally!! Already tried everything: D&B, FS... Thank you, and abraços do Brasil!
Some of the techniques used by high end retouchers include having skin texture samples to add to images and also adding a noise layer on top. I'm not an expert but I hope that helps
Please tell me how you got Kermit the frog to do your voice overs! so cooool
I sent him some provocative photos of Miss Piggy so he owed me one
@@MichaelWoloszynowicz smart play...hes such a sucker for miss piggy
