I'm primarily a large format B&W film portrait photographer so found this of interest. I fully expected you to add a bit of sepia tint to the finished product.
Thank you. Stumbled across you while checking for something completely different, glad I did. Not wanting to be accused of blowing smoke up your @#%, your work is amazing. Thanks for your generosity in sharing. I'm 67 and still learning LOL.
Thank you. I applied this technique to an image I took some years ago of an elderly gentleman with a " lived in Face". A little tweeking including bring opacity of "grunge layer" down to 80% and come up with a pleasing resault.
Hi Joel, after completing your Still Life Master class, It really got my creative juices flowing with my own twist. I have been using my macro lens and some used flash equipment to photograph flowers. I have been using some of this grunge look as well. Thanks for these tutorials!
You can also do this the opposite way around by taking a monochrome image and colourzing it in Photoshop (thanks to PS's new neural filters which are supported by Ai) ;)
Joel, thank you for the video. I purchased your still life, and I wanted to learn little more from your post-processing. Great video! I just would like to point out that it is hard to make out your photoshop steps, because the video is very fuzzy, literally hard to see/read the icons and text on layers. Not sure why it is that way.
@@joelgrimes I agree with Vicki, it definitely seems to be too low of a resolution to easily see the photoshop menus and other text. FWIW, I was initially surprised by Vicki's comment so I had to go check. The first time I watched this was on a 75" 4K TV through a 4K Apple TV and I didn't notice a major problem with the resolution. However, I just tried it on my windows machine on an ultrawide 3440x1440 (not a 4K) and it's definitely fuzzy. I went back and watched it on my 4K and it's definitely being upscaled, which made it slightly easier to see but there's even there it's not crisp. I have no idea what a minimum resolution should be if it's needed for showing text, however.
Awesome tutorial! Unfortunately, I've done everything possible and the Camera Raw Filter has no effect on the image. All the settings are still set at zero. Now I actually can't even find the download. I'll admit that I haven't been working with PS for a while, but I've never had a download dissappear on me... Grrr.
question I heard at one time after you edit in 16 bit is it true when you flatten everything and get it ready to print , should you change it to 8bit or leave it at 16 bit for printing
I know Joel is a commercial photographer and he’s cultivated that HDR look cause it’s how he earns a living. But I have to say, am not a fan of HDR/over processed photos. Still enjoyed the video, the man is a pro’s pro.
For sure there's a personal touch and choice involved. These techniques can be used a minimal/invisible amount and still add some nice depth/detail to an image
It looked much better in color. There is some kind of "uncanny valley/artificial" vibe in this b/w version, you know this fake grittyness; but in color greaaat photo as always.
Sorry, you lost me on the sky replacement. Whatever that is, it’s not photography. I wish you well in your efforts, but they’re definitely not intended for me.
You can't be serious ! Please prepare your tutorials so we don't get sick & tired of all your "humm" and other endless interruptions. You just don't show any respect for your audience.
Looking at your own contributions on TH-cam (none) I might consider that the only one who shows disrespect is yourself. Jealous ….?Or a lack of concentration following a real useful tutorial…. This guy shares a bunch of his skills to a grateful audience . Free . How about you?
Seriously, Guy? Joel is absolutely a true talent, a hard working photographer for many years. People who stammer and search for words generally are very intelligent - their brains are going faster than their mouths can process the thoughts. Do your research on speech patterns before you make a judgement on others. Or even better, start your own TH-cam channel, and let’s see how you do.
@@joelgrimes Don't give up, Joel! You have a bright future ahead of you, maybe Canon will work with you some day. In all seriousness, stumbled upon your page and have been binging your content. Much love from Phoenix.
Just spend 2 interrumped day in your tutorial, but finally I finished it, and I am very happy with the result! Tnaks Joel!
Amazing! thanks for the feedback!
Awesome video... thanks so much for sharing black and white tutorial...
Fantastic video! Bravo 🤩
Thank you! Cheers!
Love it… like he said before… an artist with tools. I flew across the country to attend his workshop in LA. Live here in AZ. Hope you have one here!!
Great stuff Joel !
Fastastic tutorial. Thank you for the preset. That was an amazing photo by the way.
Glad you liked it!
This is awesome Joel.
thanks, George!

You're welcome!
You are the best Joel. Love your style and willingness to share it all with us.
You really are inspiring mate, cheers 🥃
You're very welcome Matthew!
Hello from Michigan, Joel!
Hello!

I love your tutorial, and love the look of the grunge technique.
Can it be applied in Capture One?
how do you turn the background all black in photoshop?

Very dramatic. I am having trouble installing the downloaded preset though. Any thoughts?
Just search how to install presets.
Hey, Joel! Question... Why don't you upload in 4K to get the most amount of quality out of these tutorial videos?
thanks for the feedback, constantly tweaking my process. And for sure a photographer first not a video guy. I'll keep improving though!
@@joelgrimes I'm here if you need help 😁😂

I don't know how I found it... but I did and somehow it worked... And it looks GREAT! Wish I could send it in because we look great! Thanks Joel!
Glad to hear if Jeff!
If we take a tequila shot by every “ah” in the video, we will get drunk in one minute 😂
We'd be dead by the end of the video! Still love it!

Muy bueno
Gracias
sorry but I cannot find where to download the filter
Great video thanks for sharing! but you look like hell a sweatshirt bro???
I have a number of Joel's tutorials and this is great but ruined because I couldn't download the preset. Spent an hour on it but just got a xmp. file
Sorry about this John, I hope you got it sorter. the .xmp is the preset
Nice shot, but for my taste a bit too HDRish. A bit more black depths and whiter lights would be my taste…
You're welcome! Thanks for watching
It looked much better in color. There is some kind of "uncanny valley/artificial" vibe in this b/w version, you know this fake grittyness; but in color greaaat photo as always.
Thanks Damian! I love the grungy look. I think it comes from dodging and burning in the darkroom
You should have made it in lightroom, so it would be more realistic 😉
Thanks for watching Villiam. Always room for differing artistic choices!
Sorry, you lost me on the sky replacement. Whatever that is, it’s not photography. I wish you well in your efforts, but they’re definitely not intended for me.
Very cool image and great tricks to try! Nice job as always!
Would be nice if your source file was not empty. No photo to be found by LR.

Honestly, you should know your subject before you try to teach. Stuttering and stammering for words just confirms you have no idea what you are doing.
Thanks for the feedback Guy. I'm just getting started...

What a troll. Spend your energy helping others instead of trying to put people down 😂 Joel is dropping gems
