This is the best tutorial I've found. We have a lot of similar tutorials which offer easy ways but you choose the hardest, the most detailed, and perfect procedures.
Fantastic ... Jesus Ramirez is absolutely the best Photoshop Instructor on the web!! I learn more per minute with you than any other. Watched several and somehow you get through ... thank you.
I can only imagine how much work goes into making these videos. The techniques are great, but your clear, precise explanations and well-timed rythm don't lag behind. So... congratulations once more! Cheers.
With other photoshop tutorial channels(on youtube), it's mostly a revision of what I already know. But with yours, there is always something new to learn about, making me feel like a beginner. And to be honest, some of the steps are hard to remember without following along in the editing process. I guess this is what other instructors' premium classes teach you. Thank you!
I believe - you and Marty Geller of BLTV, you are the best TEACHERS. I don't say "best photoshop masters", because "teaching" for me is a step ahead of knowing or mastering something! Thank you very much - and if in the future will ask some "symbolic patron money", i will give you through my heart,...because,...i m not student,...or soldier in the war,...or grandpa...or whatever people are when comes the time to pay. People with "no money", but rich on excuses. Thanks again!
Yowzer! That was a *spectacular* end result - far better than I ever thought possible. You've (once again) explained a series of intricate steps extremely well! I will use *all three* techniques for my composites. Thanks a ton, Jesús!
Excellent lesson: pace is correct, depth of info given is adequate, this guy speaks very clearly and the concept of the tutorial is also well executed. Super thumbs up!
These check up layer you create are extremely valuable for getting every little detail right when putting pictures together. The human eye is fantastic to see even the slightest mismatch, even when you can't tell what it actually is. So with these three layers chances are great the end result will actually be believable. Millions of thanks for all your amazing tips you give away.
This is the best composite tutorial I've come across to date. Outstanding job taking the time to explain on the various Photoshop tools work together and what they effect in the image. Great job!
Where was Jesús back in the 80s? I really needed him back then, he could have been my teacher.... :) Now as a senior I'm watching his channel and find in learning more hands on advice than my "Photoshop WoW" books could offer...
This was great, but very overwhelming. This is over my head. I can follow what you are doing, but if I practiced this myself on my photos I wouldn't know if what I was doing is correct. I need more practice to understand this kind of advanced editing.
You can't expect to learn it all at once. I watch a variety of videos. As I watch them, I understand more and more. One video will VERY rarely be enough.
That being said, this video is not for beginners, but in all honesty, neither is compositing. I look forward to being able to do the things described in it.
Don't despair. I started this journey in PicsArt on my phone and literally felt like it was a another language with a million useless options I'd never use. 10 months later, I was switching to Photoshop bc picsart simply didn't have enough features lol. Every time you learn one tool, it adds to your overall knowledge and you'll be able to link themes. Before yoy know it you'll ve predicting what hes about to do before he does it. My advice: every tutorial, do it a few times and take the time to understand what each step is actually doing, so eventually yoy can mix and match as needed
Hi, trust u are doing great pls?, I pray for u anytime I come across your wonderful videos since the very first day u announced your health issue and am eager to see u healthy and strong once again, you have done great work to help a lot of people like me and am grateful for your awesome teachings and wish greatness for u 🙏🙏🙏
Thanks for the tutorial! I have two questions: 1) You raised the darkest parts of foreground to correspond the background. Shouldn't we make the final adjustment to the result image and make the darkest pixels black? 2) In photography there's a rule that the foreground objects should be darker than the background. It helps to create a feeling of the depth of the image. Shouldn't we follow this rule and leave foreground a little darker? Thank you!
Amazing job, Jesus! Your tutorials are so clear and full of great tips! You never know how much is there to learn... I thought I was pretty good at Photoshop, until I found this channel. And man! I learned so much more than I thought I could. Best Photoshop tutorial channel on the entire internet. :)
wow. There was a lot going on there but what a beautiful blend of colours and luminosity. I'll definitely be watching this a few times. I love your tutorials - right to the point with lots of explanation
My issue is not color matching, but taking two separate images with different light sources and matching the direction and intensity of the light sources. Do you have any tips on that? For example, taking a picture indoors and (with sunlight coming from the side) and placing them outdoors (sunlight coming from the top). Thanks for the awesome videos!
None were totally new individually but the combination of all 4 adjustments was totally awesome. As usual, wonderfully explained and so helpful to my workflow.
Wow great job. I've been spending time on other channels who's explanations are not even close to being as technical as yours. I've learned more by watching this one video than in 4months of others. Thanks, subscribed and on notice.
@@PhotoshopTrainingChannel i learned most of my ps knowledge from Deke McClelland from Lynda.com. He's very technical in his approach too. I think he would really appreciate your techniques.
Спасибо огромное за урок!!! Это просто супер!!! Мне никак не удавалось подогнать изображения из разных фотографий к единому знаменателю, чтоб это было реалистично. Теперь мне наконец-то стало все понятно!!!
This is an amazing tutorial, very well explained and demonstrated. I honestly can't like this enough, I've been designing for years and never knew I could use adjustment layers in this way. I will definitely be using these techniques more frequently in my designs, this information is so valuable thank you!
Wow, just found you by accident. Extremely helpful and articulate discussion about the how and why of each process in the most concise way. One of the best video demos on youtube!!!
amazing! I really loved your channel. Your channel is quite more than just photoshop tricks, you show how to use it in a smart way. Your channel is for sure the best on youtube for photoshop training. congrats.
Amazing tutorial Jesus!! I'm not a professional designer but I really enjoy the level of detail you go into in each of your videos. Very helpful while editing the photos I take. Thank you so much!!!
Amazing!! I didn't know any of this and am excited to try all of these points!! I'll have to watch the video again ... and again.. however in order not to miss anything!! Thanks so much Jesus!! Your training is stellar.
THIS IS AMAZING, I CANT EVEN DESCRIBE HOW AMAZED I AM BY ALL THE HACKS :00 I like how you explain the steps!! A little bit confusing but overall great. There was so much useful tools I didn't know their function; but ofc bc I'm a newbie to photoshop so I only use the essentials haha
Question about these adjustments for saturation, luminosity, and color. If you are comping an image that is made up of several images and not just two in this case. Do you apply the adjustment layers to every single piece to get them to match? Thanks for the great vid.
i've been doing a similar thing but in my own haphazard way, just by eye, but this tutorial is a much more detailed, systematic way to match selections to bg imgs. i will watch one more time when i've actually got PS open so I can follow along. great tutorial!
Hugely helpful tutorial. Many thanks. The only input I may have would be about the necessity to blur any sharp edges (her outlines in this instance). In real life it is very difficult to find a perfectly sharp edge (2D objects such as paper or razor don't count). All edges of all 3D objects are beveled to some degree so that's what the human eye looks to see especially when perspective (foreground and background) is involved. Using the Blur Tool on any edges creates a nice anti-aliasing effect which makes the scene much more realistic. Light refracts and scatters while passing near an edge and blurring gives the same effect. Your eye unconsciously looks for that effect unless you are a hawk or something...
Glad I found this! Thank you so much! I have a question though. Is this applicable to all images that you are going to add? I mean if you'll be using 5 different images, so everytime you'll add an image, do you use this steps? Or is it a case to case basis? Please let me know your thoughts. Thank you again!
You're a good teacher! This was my first video, but your explanation makes plenty of sense to me! I look forward to trying this method on my images. Thx! Bowtie
Amazing tutorial I love to watch your tutorial because in tutorial you always explain the reason Now I have one question to ask that science behind saturation check layer I mean how by making adjustments as said in tutorial in selective color adjustment layer we get saturation check layer?
You do some of the best PS tutorials out there. Thanks! Could you use a LUT layer to achieve an overall color look instead of some of the changes you made?
Learning so much and so well in these short, cohesive and super informative videos. I love how you always manage to explain a what some obscure button does and then switch to using shortcuts once you've explained what they do. These videos are much appreciated, huge thank you!
Awesome. You tied it all together very well. I think I saw you do each of those before separately. Seeing them all work together , and the smart object at the end was perfect. Great job !
میری یہ خواہش ہے کہ ہر شخص جس کام کے لیے بھی وہ کوشش/محنت کر رہا ہے کامیاب ہو ameen meri yeh dua hay k har shaks jis kaam k liye b wo mehnat kar raha ha kamyab ho
there is so much in your video that I can learn... thank you so much to put these techniques together your tutorials helped a lot sir thank you so much sir...
This might well be one of your best videos in revealing "how to" do compositing!
Hands down most comprehensive tutorials on TH-cam. Elegant workflow as well. Thanks Jesus!
This is the best tutorial I've found.
We have a lot of similar tutorials which offer easy ways but you choose the hardest, the most detailed, and perfect procedures.
Fantastic ... Jesus Ramirez is absolutely the best Photoshop Instructor on the web!! I learn more per minute with you than any other. Watched several and somehow you get through ... thank you.
I've watched a few of these compositing vids now, but this one is by far the best for covering all the steps.
What can I say? You are a Genius and you seem like a very genuine guy.
Just so clever.
I can only imagine how much work goes into making these videos. The techniques are great, but your clear, precise explanations and well-timed rythm don't lag behind. So... congratulations once more! Cheers.
Thank you, Photoshopeando! Only people who also record tutorials really know the amount of work that goes into them.
This is so complete and obvious explanation of setting the color of images in a great way,thanks a lot
You're welcome, Mahsa!

These were all new to me, but fascinating to understand what you need to look at, and how to go about making the adjustments. Thank you.
I like your way of presenting. very clear and focused on the topic under discussion. Doesn't try to muddle up the topic by bringing up sub issues.
These check up layer you create are extremely valuable for getting every little detail right when putting pictures together.

Putting together actions for each of these three checks makes this a nice tool to use for composites. Thanks for the tutorial!
I come back to this video every time. I try one of your other videos, but this one takes the cake!!
i cant stop clicking your videos im addicted to them thanks for sharing your knowledge
The "blend if" blending is still the most mind-blowing thing I've seen here.
I've been researching this topic over the past few days and this one was the clearest and very well put together. Thank you.

Great tutorial as usual. They may seem hard, at first, but doing it a couple of times, you start to remember, and zip right through it.
wow. There was a lot going on there but what a beautiful blend of colours and luminosity. I'll definitely be watching this a few times. I love your tutorials - right to the point with lots of explanation
I've watched this video every time i make something! This is the best video on youtube!!
That saturation mapping technique was new to me. Thanks
My issue is not color matching, but taking two separate images with different light sources and matching the direction and intensity of the light sources. Do you have any tips on that?
For example, taking a picture indoors and (with sunlight coming from the side) and placing them outdoors (sunlight coming from the top). Thanks for the awesome videos!
FerbEyes well something important to take in a count is soft or hard light.
thats mostly using painting white and dark parts in the photo thats one of the first thing to get in count
the main tip is to choose the right pictures, dont force it
Same, I wanted to make it look like I was holding something, but this video was still pretty useful
None were totally new individually but the combination of all 4 adjustments was totally awesome. As usual, wonderfully explained and so helpful to my workflow.
You are the Best! Congratulations, directly from Brazil!
Thank you, Johnny!
