I started watching your videos years ago when I first got curious about graphic design. Today, I work as a designer in an incredible agency and made a career out of it. You're a big part of my success in this field, so thank you!
Are you a self taught graphic designer?
@@oooBoEoNooo Yes I am and most of them are
@@queenrao17 Thank you for your answer. Then there is still hope for me ;-)
When you started learning graphic design, what was the biggest challenge for you?
@@oooBoEoNooo Don't know about him, but it was my memory for me. Photoshop has a lot of features, and you can only burn what you've learned into your memory if you apply your knowledge into your projects right after learning about them. Sometimes you forget how to properly use a feature and you will have to rewatch an entire video just to remember, but that is not a problem if you enjoy doing what you do.
With time, with so much "watching and rewatching" while applying your newfound knowledge to your projects, you will see yourself pilling up on experience. But in the end, no matter how experienced you are, such tutorials will always be a part of your daily life. There is so much to learn about graphic design that you will never be able to learn it all, so it's an eternal learning process. And for me that's ok.
@@Kokorocodon Many, many thanks for your detailed answer
I'm specifically concerned about the subject of graphic design regardless of the software. I don't know why, but I often think that the only way to learn graphic design is to study it at a university.
Maybe I think that way because I don't trust myself to do it.
A very obstructive way of thinking, I realize. That's why I'm very grateful for any tip that helps me to improve this attitude.
You apologized for offering too much information in this tutorial. Actually you deserve enormous credit for giving us a lesson jammed with a huge amount of amazing tips. I'm grateful for your effort. Thanks so much.
the apology was for information overload. sometimes too much info in a short amount of time turns the watcher off
Exzactly we need people like you there is never to much information. This is one of the best tutorials so far I love your tutorials.
This is indeed the best method I've ever watch, it's so complete and easy to learn because you broke down every theory like perspective, color grade, value even shadow and lighting in simple way, thank you so much
you are the absolute best when it comes to learning how to create this kind of art. I have been looking forever for someone who describes the process, the do's and the don'ts, as perfectly as you. You are practically a teacher for all of us first timers, so please keep doing what you are doing. I first learned about this kind of art when I just randomly came across the channel Benny Productions. I thought the art was so awesome, really wanted to learn how to do it, but he admits he will not produce tutorials because there are already tons of videos out there that are just that. I agree with some of the people on here, you definitely need to be added to the Masterclass website, for graphic design instruction.
Another wonderful tutorial with the perfect length for me! Thanks a lot for taking the time and explaining it so precisely!
I haven't tuned into your tutorials for a while, I forgot how much I love them! Thank you for such quality videos :)
A masterclass! I loved the way you just did subtle moves and said "not bad". The key to the project is make everything blend together and make sense.
What a great tutorial! Will have to revisit it several times due to all the awesome tips that are included--finding the horizon, several of your blending techniques, just to name 2.
Glad to see another tutorial Nathanial! Welcome back!
This was an incredibly helpful video. I absolutely love your teaching method. I haven't watched a video that has taught me so much theory in such a short time which actually stuck with me.
Thank you for the time and effort you put into this tutorial.
Im just 50 seconds in and im so hyped to get these results.
Really helps to see examples of what your video is going to help us accomplish in the very beginning. At least for me it builds up so much hype and motivation to learn.
Now off to watch the rest! Thank you for making this tut!!
Glad to see you are doing tutorials again! I really enjoy how you explain everything. Very informative! Thank you!
I TRIED TO DO THE SAME THING AS YOU AND IT WAS SO HELPFUL I LEARNED NEW ICONS THAT I HAVENT USED BEFORE THANKS ALOT
I watch a lot of tutorials and there is so much valuable information in this video. Leading Lines and finding your horizon is one that comes to mind. Don't know how I haven't found your channel before or maybe I have but you've got a fan and an inspired creator for life.
Thank you for this! Am currently working on a composite and having some trouble with it so this video is right on time! 🥰
Dude, you are amazing man... Every single time I feel unmotivated and I don't know where to start learning, I go straight to your channel and all my motivation comes back and everything starts making sense!! It's amazing how you teach and all the tips and tricks you give us! Please keep making videos like this one, bless you man!
This tutorial is absolutely amazing! The technique of using the horizon is a game changer for sure
Awesome tutorial man. Been following you through high school, university and still learning stuff today as professional graphic designer
So glad you got back into making tutorials, as they make me want to continue using Photoshop!
Hands down the single most thorough & helpful tutorial I've come across in explaining allllll the important little (and big) steps necessary to create realistic composites. Bless you, Nathaniel!
hands down one of thee best teachers and compositing tutorials i have watched. its not always about what and how to but why you made the creative and technical choices. very informative
DUDE wish we had more tutorials like this for everything. This was amazing and i hope i will find some other tutorials like this in your channel
Thanks for your easy to follow explanations, one step at a ti. It makes learning less overwhelming!
Thank you! Thank you so much! I want to support you in anyway I can. This video has blessed me tremendously. I love how detailed and visual your teaching is. BRAVO!!!
You're a very technical person. Great techniques taught, great presentation. Thanks a lot !
Glad you got back into making easy to follow tutorials again!
People who make long tutorials with every detail explained are simply amazing
huge amount of contents, I had to watch and test the tips one by one with intervals to be able to digest it all. Wonderful class, thank you so much.
Wow. Just wow. Amazing tutorial. I will probably never do this but love that I can refer back to this if I never need to. Great job!
This is massive!! thanks for taking the time to do this 😊 you made it look so easy! 😊
This was extremely helpful! Thank you!🙏🏾
You are by far the best teacher for soft soft . It's very complicated at first - overwhelming, actually - but, you make it doable for
Hey there.
Just felt like saying this.
Your tutorials are like very few I find on TH-cam. There is no-nonsense information. Almost everything is backed by real-time practice behind the theory you mention. I can in real time understand your color theory while being able to apply and memorize the new information in a short time.
Thanks for being kind enough and post this for free.
Stellar content! Really great combo of first principles and techniques. I learned a lot here!
literally the only person who explained why would we use those adjustments/filters in a way that'd help us in other projects & not just how, cause there are million others who show us how to use them but still lack the logical explanation on why would we choose this & not that kind of tool/adjustment. thanks a lot ♥
I love how in depth and great this is explained. Awesome.
Wonderful! Horizon lines for properly situating one image on another! Never heard of that before but is so obvious when you point that out. Not only important but critical. So many composites just FAIL in some awkward but baffling way. And here you have identified the culprit. Horizon lines. And, FWIW, ten steps is too many? No problem as you break down the process. Soooo helpful. Mike
I need to repeat this video 10 times or more. Just amazing. thank you for sharing the process
this video was awesome. answered so many questions i had on blending. This is the best videos i have seen on this topic. Gave me so many tools and techniques to use. Very thorough
Wow, I really like how you explain why you do the things you do, not only what you are doing and how to do it.
Your tutorials are great!
I am a subscriber but haven't noticed that you came back on making content until now. Somehow you didn't show up on my feed... Good to have you back!
Bro you have beyond earned my subscription. The amount of information I learned in this one video is insane.
"This tutorial went way longer than I wanted it to"
For you maybe. I would've watched for another hour.... You make great tutorials.
Thanks for this goldmine of information again.
Thank you so much. This was one of the best tutorials I ever did, was really blown away by the result!
So good. That shadow blows me away, but the whole tut is top notch.
Thanks so much for making tutorials! You literally helped me start my career in Graphic Design.
good luck on your journey
Totally honest here, think this is the best photoshop tutorial out there! I couldn't seem to find videos that helped me with what I wanted to learn and this videos just a goldmine - thanks so much!
So many awesome tips, time codes make it easy to revisit the best suitable tips, thank you for putting time into this, glad to see you are back!
This is literally a lesson that people would pay for, thanks for making this accessible to everyone! I learned so much!
Thanks again Nathaniel. Fantastic tutorial as usual.
This is what i‘ve been waiting for!
Thank you!🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻
awesome videos... i learned a lot.... but i would need to rewatch this a few times to really understand and remember everything.... cool... looking forward to more composite vids!!
This is the best tutorial I ever seen on TH-cam or any other online course!. Awesome Job.
Very structured way - your work here proved that it works. Thanks a ton!
This is really AMAZING!!! Thank you so much for sharing this awesome tutorial!!
Learned more about compositing in the first 5 minutes than ever before... and then at the end with the final grading... 😲 WOW.
this is gold!..As someone like me who took the interest in drawing stuffs. my biggest mistake was not giving attention to perspective,and was always looking at colors and cool manipulations that of course made my edits horrible. So i would like to give advice to someone who dont know the perspective,to learn it as soon as you can. colors and stuffs can go later.learn to make the foundation and structure of house only then you can paint on it
This genuinely was the most helpful and fun tutorial on compositing! Thank you!
This was crazy helpful and just the right length. Thank you!! :)
incredible possibilities to those who master it. I am almost done with my first track, but there is so much more to discover and learn. TNice tutorials
Wicked process. Great result🔥👏
this is an amazing tutorial, i have needed something this in depth but hard to find on youtube and from someone with great communication skills. the shadow and horizon tips are so helpful. thanks!
Maybe one of the best tutorial for Photoshop out on TH-cam, thank you very much !!
Thanks for the great tutorial, i dont think it is too long it was very interesting and kept me hooked throughout the entire video. For a quick lookup it might be a bit long, but for really learning PS and truly understanding the knowledge this is perfect.
You are the man bud. excellent. Get to all those unanswered questions the rest of them leave you scratching your head with. thanks!
