Wow! I'm humbled by your skills and techniques Colin, and so thankful for these tutorials!
Thank you Colin. I always appreciate your videos. Stay safe 😊
Wow exactly what I was searching for, thanks mate !
I love these tutorials - so easy to follow. Thank Colin!
This is what I've been looking for the last several weeks. I'm just now dipping my feet into portrait photography, but I also do a lot of nature/birds, etc. The one thing missing from my photos when I'm editing is that beautiful dramatic look that comes from light and shadow. I was looking at ways to create a dramatic effect using shadows, but now I realize I was going in the wrong direction. This use of light is exactly what I was looking for. I'm going to go to the written instructions and put them in my notebook...thank you for doing that so I don't have to pause the video to write down each step! I can't wait to give this a go!
Very useful. I like the simplicity of the explanations. I have kept away from portrait shots as I was never satisfied with my lighting effects. This should help.
I often wondered how to use this lighting tool. Thank you, Colin.
Excellent video- Thank you for the detailed walk through of this effect.
Very interesting, you are very easy to follow Colin. Thank you! Love all these Lighting Affect adjustments. Keep it up!
It was fantastic, Colin, those fine details make all the difference.
With you and photoshop, we can do everything!
great stuff - thanks for the insights, and I look forward to next week's video!
Another brilliant one Colin. I will definitely be practicing more
Fabulous! Thanks So Much Again! Keep it Coming!
Brilliant. I'm off to practice this now.
Loved the spot light!
Awesome! Can't wait to try it on a portrait photo! Thanks!
Very nicely done! I am using this technique for extra credit for my advanced PhotoShop class at our local community college. I really appreciate the pace of your courses. I have viewed all of your recent lighting effects tutorials and have learned so much. I have passed on the link to your channel to my local photography community. Keep up the excellent work!!
Nice series of videos. I haven’t used this filter in years, and will start experimenting using it to enhance some landscape work.
Wow, we may never need a photo studio in the very near future!! Love this & looking forward to more of it Colin. Thank you very much. Much can be learnt about lighting effects with creative, fun experimentation! A very thrilling thought.
More to come!
Love these man, awesome technique for lighting :D
This is fascinating stuff and provides some techniques which I can use on some of my work where I want to enhance texture but subtly. Great video and now on to number three.
Thank you for this tutorial, i was looking for the same
Awesome! Very interesting. I will certainly try this on my portraits. Thank you!!
Obviously a helpful video. Thanks Colin ❤
Awesome tutorial Colin. This topic is not exploited and this filter and tehniques are unknown to a wider circle of users Photoshop for sure.
This video was great and I certainly found this very helpful to really add something special to a portrait. It is so fun to follow along and apply these steps to my own portrait and wow, the before and after is very nice. Learning so much from your channel, thank you so much!
Amazing tutorial, thank you
Good stuff. I will definitely start using this in my edits. Very well done tutorial!
Love it. Thanks for your great videos. I'm learning so much.
Nice one. I do like this. Thanks Colin.
Well narrated, informative and amazing!!!
your tutorials are amazing!! keep up with that good content
great video. looking forward to use this on my work
Very interesting Colin and one I will have to watch a few times!!
That was SO interesting. I used the lighting effects in the 90's to create golden embossed text - I never thought it could be used for portraits. Cool! More of this advanced stuff is welcome, cafe Chef....
Awesome as always
Excellent tutorial. I have subscribed and am very excited to learn from you!
You are a master. I appreciate the great content and learn a lot. Just wanted to say thanks.
Love it!!
this professional level information is free, imagine that. thank you, I immediately subscribed
Thanks for tutorial. Exactly what I was looking for, with TealOrange lookup which I saw other portrait artists use. Now I know how to apply, plus the great lighting effects filter. Now I can go through past photo sessions and try them out. By the way, I subscribed to your You Tube channel. cheers!
Just great!
Wow! This opens a lot of opportunities for me. I never seen anyone demonstrate quite like this. Thanks!
Glad you like it
Fantastic, keep them coming. it's been a while since I've learned something exciting.
Thanks, will do!
Love this technique. Hadn't heard of a texture channel before this
Wait till next installment, its going to blow your mind ;)
The issue of not being able to select "lighting effects" in PS 2020 needs to be addressed. I was having issues until I changed the image to 8bits but thats hasn't worked for everybody. Awesome videos by the way, Colin. Much appreciated mate.
Thank you for another amazing tutorial
My pleasure!
This was nice. Thank you for the lesson!
My pleasure!
thanks for this tip !
Awesome!!
Awesome! Thanks a lot 👍🏻🌹
Excellent!

Beautiful subject, BTW.

free gift knowledge to photographer god blessu lot knowledge & happy life
exigent bro thanks
Good video thanks
better than the first onw which was great
Yeah, this is great! I look forward to the other tutorials. This is what I have been looking for. I can use this technic a lot when highlighting objects or persons in large musical groups (chorus/orchestras of 80 or more, etc.). Can you include your technic of adding the right amount of light on top or behind an object or person? Meanwhile, I will be practicing.
Thank you so much! Is it possible to add light without darkening rest of photo? Is it the ambience slider. Again, thank you kindly!
Thank you ....
WOW Thanks
Very interesting and informative tutorial. When would you choose to use the spotlight effect over for example the radial filter in Camera Raw? Thank you for sharing your knowledge with us. Your tutorials are awesome.
Depends of the look you are going for.
Good video👍
Excellent, Colin! I just stumbled on a little trick, perhaps you know. CTL-H will hide the outlines of the selected light source so you can see the effect without the distracting lines. ;)
Yes, I did know, but its a great tip! Thanks for sharing
tq sir
I have never used the alpha channels. THey look cool. I can see where they can make a big difference.
It is a great video! Thank you! However I cannot undo in this filter, anyone knows why?
Hello.
In my photoshop version doesn’t have that lighting effect feature work. What is alternative way to do lighting effects on photos?
Opening PS now...thanks
would it be possible for you to share the LUT's in this video? thanks
It's interesting and quite helpfull. But I do see some issue of color bending at the background once you applying lighting effect. So how do you fix that? Thank you anyway for the tutorial.
Select it, add a little noise and blur will take it right out
photoshop is saying its discontinuing 3d effects so this is no longer possible - I can only get to selecting lighting effects where I get that error message, is there another way to get this effect 2022?
Colin, could you please show us how you would remove original window glass from a car to be used in a composite. Then, assuming a layer is created from those individual window frames, how do you tint them without altering the color tone of the car's interior? Hopefully this makes sense? If not, I could email or upload an example for you to browse, if I knew how to do this? Thanks for your time and consideration.
Nevermind, I figured out what I needed to do. Probably not the way you would do it, but there are always so many different ways to accomplish something with Photoshop. :)
Loved the lighting...didn't really appreciate the texture thing.
Fair enough!
ANY IDEA WHY I CANT SEE THE EDGES OF THE SPOT LIGHT? I am not able to edit its position and rotation...
If "Lighting Effects" is greyed out and you are already in RGB mode, try Edit -> Preferences -> Performance and check "Use Graphics Processor." Then restart PS. That solved the problem for me.
Can you explain why you made the texture level but it’s super soft?
I believe for the sake of the tutorial, he didn't performed any skin retouching. And that, even with the blur applyed came out less pleasing. Anyway, with this light filters, if you use any kind of texture, it will be largely amplified. Thats why you need to blur it first. Just try for yourself, even with red, green or blue texture that comes by default, and you will see the result (not with every kind of light preset, but with most of them). What I do is to first apply the light filter with no texture, and add texture after; either with the texturizer filter in the filter gallery or using noise+ emboss, respecting the light direction that was previously applyed.
Because the texture will look too rough. A lot of the time I don't use it for portraits, but people wanted to see it on portraits, so you have to blur it a lot.
Never seen the texture channel before! Genius! Thanks Colin! More, please! 🙏🏼
OMG is that the EVO from Steve Vai?
Its a JEM signed by Steve, but it's not an evo
@@photoshopcafe omg that's such a pice of history! Congratulations 👏🎉
While doing lighting effect I am not able to get light effect. I get only circles. How to get light effect ???
Is there a way to get past the 8 bit limit, because i work in 16 bits. Which version of photoshop supports this filter in 16 bits
Can u tell me what's benifit of working on 16bit
How about select 8bit for lightning then go back to 16bit?
Whenever I clicked on the lighting effect it first load 3d and everything went black. How do I resolve this.
I figured it out. Needed to set Preferences > Performance > Use Graphic Processor
Thanks for that, Ill add it to the tips
The Alpha channel not appearing under Texture in Lightning Effects in Photoshop v25
Image is set to RGB and 8 bits but Lighting Effects is still grayed out. Any ideas?
Restart Photoshop, its a little bit buggy ;(
Too bad Adobe discontinued this, and there are no handles to change the position of the light. The old solution of disabling Preferences >> Technology Previews >> Deactivate Native Canvas, no longer works.
I just don't get this ! I post process almost all my images but not to completely change the lighting of the shot ! Why not just light it the way you want it in studio using things like grids, snoots, feathering, gels ??? To me lighting an image in studio / camera gives a way more realistic looking final image !!!
The shadowing on the lower part of the photo around her arms doesn't look realistic. Not bad though.
Its just a tutorial, to show steps, not aiming for perfection.
@@photoshopcafe. Okie dokie.
I’m sorry, it was too detailed to get the picture. I would’ve liked if you just started off by saying we’re gonna do three things and tell us how to generally do this whole thing in a sentence or two and then we watch 15 minutes of you doing it. It’s not so much fun to sit there and watch a slideshow of so many tasks without understanding what the process is. Maybe it’s just me, it’s late…
Thank you!
