Taylor is the best photographer, i have ever seen in this world eventhough we haven't met, but you have suprised me a lot
Very kind thank you.
Wow! Magaling kang tao ka.
My sincere thanks to Karl for sharing such lovely videos which enabled me to learn a lot about product photography. Lots of love ❤ from India.
Thank you.
Thanks sir, I understand.🥰
What kind of environmental lighting do use along with a d65 calibrated monitor? (Regarding color temperature)
I only have natural light from a window in my office and often when retouching the blinds are closed. The house lights in the studio are daylight balanced LED warehouse lighting but these are off when shooting and the only light will be the modelling lights from the studio flashes.
Can you open new Hasselblad camera files in c1?
Yes
@@VisualEducationStudio well that changes things for me. Been wanting to go either Hasselblad or Fuji. Thank you for the reply.
And the Photoshop theme is in my laptop. There is a difference
Excellent video. Quite inspiring ❤
Glad you enjoyed it!
So a video named "How to Get Started in Product Photography" is about a course not about how to get started. Got it. Nice clickbait.
Yes that's correct this is the first class in a series of classes on our platform that guide you through learning product photography to professional level. This class is an introduction to that process and is the first overview lesson for free on our website, as it was free on our website we also decided to post it here on our youtube channel to promote our platform. It mentions that in the video too and given that getting started in anything requires skills that you have to learn, then this is the starting point to do so in our product photography genre. For your information we also give hundreds of highly popular free classes and tips on our youtube channel and have done for the last 15 years, occasionally we decide to promote our main platform on our youtube channel as part of that process as online education at a low monthly fee is our core business. That's what we've done here and the same process will continue; lots of good free stuff and then occasional promotion for our main platform. We hope you enjoy the other content we have on our channel.
@@VisualEducationStudio I dont mind promotion on youtube. But the title is missleading. The main point is that if a title says "how to get started" I expect to know how to at the end of the video. And an answer in a sense of "you must pay us first then we will tell you" isnt really something that would viewer call a satisfying answer.
Our perspective is that this video is a perfect example of 'how to get started in product photography'. I guess we will have to agree to disagree.
@@VisualEducationStudio Apparently yes. From my point of view it is perfect video for "why you should join this master class". But doesnt answer any single question about how to get started in product photography. You literaly raised those entry point questions yourself and then said something in a sense of "the answer for these questions is in this course" . So yes, agree to disagree. Anyway I wish you best of luck with your masterclass and youtube channel in general and I wish you less missunderstood titles in the future.
@@VisualEducationStudioBro really just said 'from my perspective the Jedi are evil'
Sir please help me...I am not able to edit and retouch it with Photoshop, please make a video on this.
what exactly please?
