I love how in a concise 30 second intro the creative flow of your transitions puts most Cinematic Vloggers to shame, AND you just get on with the actually content of the video. Thank you and thanks for the tips.
Spot on Deathbynature. First time I've come across Jamie but loved his concise presentation. A breath of Fresh air in the quagmire of mediocrity of TH-cam presenters.
Your 13 minute video is more informative than what others wold probably charge hundreds of pounds to teach us. And definitely saved me many hours of just googling for informations as such. I appreciate the time you took to help us. Many thanks!!
Another tip, that could be added to your last, is to mirror the image. This allows you to see the picture again "for the first time" and spot any inconsistencies you didn't spot before. Great content, keep up the good work! 😁
Sugoi Sugoi Pictures great tip. Aside from photography I’m also an illustrator. Often times, the image can be off balance and you don’t notice until you mirror it
The information you possess is so invaluable! I’ve recently graduated from uni and your videos have taught me more than what I’ve learnt from the whole 3 years at uni!
What I really like with you Jamie, is that you are actually talking to "me" - you share your great knowledge with such ease and you really take your time to explain this to even a non-photographer like me. Thanks a million Jamie!
Jamie, I am a complete amateur with an interest. What your videos help with is understanding your mindset about shooting and editing to achieve something great. Many thanks!
Really hit home that one. I have to force myself to crop, as I get so caught up in the idea of presententing detail, thinking that eventual viewers will also zoom in and marvel at leaf detail when they absolutely won't and dont..
One of my favourite, honest, down to earth photography teacher. Always admire the high level of editing in your work whilst maintaining minimalism in work and message. Thanks again!
Thank you for the tip about 16-bit/channel. That has answered an issue I've come across a number of times and couldn't figure out a clean answer to. So helpful!
Your channel has became my favorite one, not only because of the nice tips you always give us, but because of the explanation on every step and the reasons behind any artistic decision. Thanks!!
Things like "Quality of the content is more important than technical quality" or the last tip are the reason I love this channel (or Jamie himself). It's not just all technical but focuses on points where the technical aspects just aren't important at all! He for example doesn't only talk about what focal lengths different lenses have but rather how you should use different focal lengths to bring your point across. And that is so much more important! That's what sets him apart from many other channels! If you're looking for someone like this more on the videography side then I can only recommend you Mark Bone! Oh, and I also love this channel because of the super creative transitions and things like the sixth finger on the thumbnail! Love that! I wish you the best, Jamie Keep the content coming! :)
Honestly, you're one of the photographers and creatives I enjoy watching. Aside from the really nifty edits and cuts, you provide some relevant insight that's important for us to think about us. Sometimes I feel like as a photographer I get obsessed with certain details, when I should try experimenting a bit more and not be so bound by rules or "technical details" in an image. Awesome upload, Jamie.
Thanks Jaime! I was skeptical at first but your cropping examples brought a lot of integrity to that tip. Especially for people like me who tend to be more purist and want to get it right in camera. One suggestion. When discussing white balance. It’s helpful to let the term “white balance” simply be the normalization of an image with white whites and blacks blacks, etc. When it comes to stylizing your image whether it be warming it up or cooling it off or doing something more complex; this is no longer white balance because you are literally un- balancing the whites to get the look that you want. This stage can be referred to as a secondary edit, applying a “look”, stylizing the image, or something along those lines. In darkroom days it was just all considered “printing”. But it was always helpful to start with normalizing the image first so that you know better where to go with your adjustments to get the desired “look” while useing the normalized white balanced version as a reference and/or proof if working for a client who wants to see options.
I can only imagine how much planning went into putting these cool camera transitions together not only during editing but also the whole process of coming up with the concept.
Just make sure you're importing your raw photo/dng in 16bpc and Adobe RGB for maximum editing range. Then convert it back to sRGB for web publishing. Otherwise the colors will look off (less saturated).
Been rigorously learning as much as I can about Lightroom and Photoshop this past year. I learned some absolutely new things watching this vid! Much thanks for sharing!
Watching this, made me wish that I was in a photography class in college and that you were my professor. The passion in the video is awesome, I think your students would learn a lot because they wouldn’t be bored
Jamie, thank you very much for the time and effort you put on your videos. I have been watching for quite sometime, you help me a lot! I wish you all the best, you deserve the world my friend.
I will never understand people unliking great videos like this. 🤔 As always, top-notch content from my fave photographer-youtuber 😊. I've just woken up, drinking my coffee and have never been this fast on clicking a notification lol
Thanks Jamie that was really well presented and supported with great examples of before and after editing. I'm finally (at 68 !} coming round to the idea of 'twiddling' with some of my images but have yet to decide what software to use ? Enthusiastic amateur so maybe i don't want to spend hours and hours learning how to use it. Picassa used to be fine for my needs. I did a home study course back in the 80's with the New York Institute of Photography and one of the main things that worked for me was the T.E.S. system. T=Theme - what story am i trying to convey. E=Emphasis. what do i keep in the shot or exclude by moving position,shutter speed etc and S= Simplicity,just include the information in the frame to tell the story. It's worked well so far ! You are a talented teacher - thanks for sharing.
I love your videos so much. I have been shooting for 30 years, your work lets me know I can still grow and I enjoy your perspectives and delivery. You are in it, connected to the work and in the spirit. Thank you.
Thank you for an interesting, helpful and "calm" presentation. I do not have ADD and I don't need the "in your face" presentation so many TH-camrs feel their audience needs. So not necessary. Your presentation is perfect.
I've been shooting for decades and processing for about 10 years. Even so, I found this video very interesting and informative. Great presentation style and lots of very helpful and relevant images to show examples. I learned a great deal. Thank you so much for posting this. You have a new subscriber!
i've just began taking my photography more seriously/trying to build my style! this video was very helpful and not a swamp of info so i appreciate that very much!
That was succinct, concise and profoundly relevant. You just took me back to the 1980's in NYC's School of Visual Arts Photography Techniques and Media Arts classes. That was a wealth of knowledge and great advice shared by you. So, Thank You! I'm going to be looking out for you.
Rightly getting the recognition you deserve Jamie. Not just for your excellent tips, but for the thought and execution of the video itself! I love your attention to detail - for example, the 6 digits at 0:08, or the placement of the various bits of video in the intro. Sooooo good! Thank you for the effort you put in. It's really appreciated :)
I’ve just subscribed to your channel and I must say that your videos are the best I’ve seen so far in regards to describing how to take photographs and how to capture different moods, feelings, and subjects. Thank you.
Btw, if your'e using Lightroom-Photoshop couple, or just open RAWs in Photoshop, get used to open raws in 16-bit in the first place. Photoshop has this option in Camera Raw, and Lightroom has it in export preferences. But you should export to PSD for edit in Photoshop.
Finally, someone that can deliver a lot of information in a short period of time without straying from the point or constantly repeating themselves. Nicely done! The conversion from 8-bit to 16-bit to 8-bit is going to help a lot. Thanks.
Shoot. All you have been saying on your videos about video editing is exactly the same realization that I am encountering. Im just a newbie in photography. A hobbyist as you can say. Bought my first mirrorless on March 2019. Im impressed on how you make your videos and how clearly you explain things and really know what you're doing. Thank you so much for making such great videos James 👍
I'm a film student who recently picked up photography as a hobby. Both to improve my sense of composition and light and because it honestly is just a lot of fun. While they're many great educational channels out there, I personally learned the most from you and I almost always get motivated to just go out and shoot. Just the other day I've finished editing a shoot I did and now that I'm rewatching this video, I'm realising how much of your advice naturally stuck with me from when I first watched this video months ago.
A famous children's illustrator told me that he puts his art upside down and leaves it 4 time before coming back to finish it this is his technique for taking a break and being able to see it again for the first time So I've taken flipping my images left right upside down because going through those motions tents actually draw my attention to any distractions or irregularities
Oh, I believe this was the best produced visual tutorial I have encountered in all my days in the TH-cams. so graphically clear, efficiently useful, and creatively enjoyable. wow. plus a good voice for narration always helps the info go down, in the most delightful way, as Mary Poppins used to say.
Brilliant content Jamie, no faff, just straight-up info, and guidance. I'm just starting out with photography and you are such a trusted source. Thank you!
I love how you manage to blend very common sense ideas, like about straightening the horizon, and pretty advanced stuff, like the 16bit to 8 bit thing (that is awesome thanks) in such a short vid, whithout having the video feeling strange. Keep up the good work, your channel is brillant!
Im literally editing pics rn as u uploaded this lol Been doing photography for a year now and started editing two days ago, hopefully gonna get better soon lol Love ur videos and I never skip the ads, keep it going man
Jamie, I've been learning photography and editing for just a few months and this stuff that you're putting out is a massive help for me. Thanks so much mate.
Don't know your photography work but must compliment you on your presentation - very slick and to the point! A lot happens behind the scenes, your planning, scripting, selection of material for your presentation. Then the filming and post, well done! Learnt a few things today as well.
Haven't commented on a TH-cam video in ages, but wanted to say you really nailed these pieces of advice. Especially the part about stepping away after edits before closing-out! Great work.
I have only seen 1:27 minutes of the video and I have straight away subscribed. As soon as you said that photography is more based on telling a story, I was already hooked on the video. For me, Its good to share the technical side but if thats the main passion of photography people are missing the point. 💯
Local brushing in LR using lowering contrast and recovering shadow prevents overdoing it more easy. In most cases pulling back shadow is enough for a face. Fantastic tutorials and presentations. Keep up the great work!
5 ปีที่แล้ว +4
I love how you use masters of photography as an example. It feels like it's a lost art here in TH-cam where people lose so much time studying techniques and not enough art.
Enjoying your content, where's your goggles gone?! Contacts?! Got to love photography no matter what kit you have, it's about moments in life! Cheers Jamie...
Thanks. I'm not meant to wear them all the time. I can see fine without them, but I get dizzy if I'm staring too long at a screen or a book for too long without putting them on.
The thing I have the hardest time doing is I end up editing EVERY image I took in a shoot lol. I just ended up liking so many of them that I get sad and exhausted trying to make them ALL nice
The 6th one is actually the best one IMO, because when I'm learning or trying new things I often end up really liking what I'm doing, and coming back a few hours/days later I realize I could do better. It allows also to see the picture during day and night, and since my screen is not extraordinary, I'm also doing a double check with my phone later I also like doing something inspired from programming: pair editing, having another photographer with me while I'm editing giving me feedback on what I'm over doing/what can be improved/what I'm missing thanks btw your vids are excellent!
That last tip is the best tip I noticed myself... I started overediting photos recently, I don't know why, so doing this really helped me. Great video!
*I know the audio is EQed badly. This is something I have fixed on my newer videos. Feel free to tell me again if you want to.*
I didn't even notice it, but I suppose that just makes it more evident what a novice I am...
I didn’t notice it either.
@@amyd5771 after watching it again on my phone, maybe it's an issue with smaller speakers or if turning it extra loud?
Jamie, we have to talk about this audio, it makes you sound like you’re from the U.K. or something. 😁
Please what is the name of the app?
"Take a break" is the best advice. So true!
This. All good advice, but this. :)
His advice is top notch!
I was just saying I’m giving a thumbs up for this tip alone, but great video with very valuable information!
0:41 consider cropping your image
3:03 use white balance to make your shot feel right
5:07 selectively lighten and darken aka dodge and burn
6:44 edit in 16-bit
9:26 level and straighten your image
11:05 take a break
I love how in a concise 30 second intro the creative flow of your transitions puts most Cinematic Vloggers to shame, AND you just get on with the actually content of the video.
Thank you and thanks for the tips.
So well put !
I appreciate that as well. A lot of vloggers repeat every statement about 4 or 5 times before getting into the meat of the information.
Yeah totally correct there are times when long intros just. Deter me from even bothering
Totally agree, brilliant intro.
Spot on Deathbynature. First time I've come across Jamie but loved his concise presentation. A breath of Fresh air in the quagmire of mediocrity of TH-cam presenters.
These must take an age to write and produce - I really appreciate all the effort you go to. Amazing.
Your 13 minute video is more informative than what others wold probably charge hundreds of pounds to teach us. And definitely saved me many hours of just googling for informations as such. I appreciate the time you took to help us. Many thanks!!
Alin Musat I wholeheartedly agree! Heck, I even learned something from this video. 😍
The way he explains and shows examples is just very immaculate. Very helpful for people who want to learn!
Another tip, that could be added to your last, is to mirror the image. This allows you to see the picture again "for the first time" and spot any inconsistencies you didn't spot before.
Great content, keep up the good work! 😁
Sugoi Sugoi Pictures great tip. Aside from photography I’m also an illustrator. Often times, the image can be off balance and you don’t notice until you mirror it
Thanks. Sounds really fundamentally.
How do you mirror your image in Lightroom?
@@virtualwarp Select photo, develop, press "photo" tab in the top of the window and select "flip horizontally"
@@christianrasmussen1
Thanks. I've been working with Lightroom for years and never used this feature.
The information you possess is so invaluable! I’ve recently graduated from uni and your videos have taught me more than what I’ve learnt from the whole 3 years at uni!
What I really like with you Jamie, is that you are actually talking to "me" - you share your great knowledge with such ease and you really take your time to explain this to even a non-photographer like me. Thanks a million Jamie!

Agreed
Jamie, I am a complete amateur with an interest. What your videos help with is understanding your mindset about shooting and editing to achieve something great. Many thanks!
"The content of your image is more important than the technical quality of it". Perfect, and doesn't only relate to cropping.
Really hit home that one. I have to force myself to crop, as I get so caught up in the idea of presententing detail, thinking that eventual viewers will also zoom in and marvel at leaf detail when they absolutely won't and dont..
Sweet editing and in camera transitions, Jamie!
Thanks. I went a bit over the top with this one I think.
One of my favourite, honest, down to earth photography teacher. Always admire the high level of editing in your work whilst maintaining minimalism in work and message. Thanks again!
WAIT WHAT??! The 8bit to 16bit back to 8bit blew my mind.... went back on all my past photos and tried it.... game changer!! Thanks Jamie!!!
That 8bit/16bit tip! thank you so much! 🤟🏻
Uau... didn't know that... very very useful!!
Right??! I didn't know that either.
Me too. Banding is the curse of my life because of my dramatic style.
Mindblown by the 8bit/16bit!

number 6, real experience talk. Something I been overlooked for soooo long. Thank you Jamie!!
I can only imagine how much planning went into putting these cool camera transitions together not only during editing but also the whole process of coming up with the concept.
Highlight of the week - a new Jamie Windsor video. Especially loved the 8bit/16bit tip. Thank you. 🙏🏻
Yeh awesome 👏
Just make sure you're importing your raw photo/dng in 16bpc and Adobe RGB for maximum editing range. Then convert it back to sRGB for web publishing. Otherwise the colors will look off (less saturated).
Can't say enough about the info, as simple as it may seem, clear, concise and so on target for me to follow; No.6, so true. Many thanks.
The last tip was the most important tip... Sometimes I end up over-editing my images only to regret months later...
Same! I hate when I do that

Ohhh... the 8/16 bit editing part was illuminating
Blew my mind honestly. Like, that will fix sooo many issues
One more tip: simply add noise on that color gradient, and this banding is gone.
Btw, if your'e using Lightroom-Photoshop couple, or just open RAWs in Photoshop, get used to open raws in 16-bit in the first place. Photoshop has this option in Camera Raw, and Lightroom has it in export preferences. But you should export to PSD for edit in Photoshop.

You video Intro and video composition is Top quality production. About the information very useful. Thanks!!!
Excellent tips thank you. I also reverse (mirror) the image before I save to check for strangeness.
this is a beautiful video. thank you so much for the effort and the insight.
Shoot. All you have been saying on your videos about video editing is exactly the same realization that I am encountering. Im just a newbie in photography. A hobbyist as you can say.

The 6th one is actually the best one IMO, because when I'm learning or trying new things I often end up really liking what I'm doing, and coming back a few hours/days later I realize I could do better. It allows also to see the picture during day and night, and since my screen is not extraordinary, I'm also doing a double check with my phone later
I also like doing something inspired from programming: pair editing, having another photographer with me while I'm editing giving me feedback on what I'm over doing/what can be improved/what I'm missing
thanks btw your vids are excellent!
OH MY GOD!!!!!!!!! YOUR VIDEOS ARE AWESOME!!!!!
Loved the "banding" tip! Thanks Jamie!
I thought I was being lazy when grabbing white balance from someone's eye, turns out it's legit. 😅
Whatever works for you is legit as long as it works!:)
that 8 bit vs 16 bit hint is such a small thing but so important. thank you!
It is simple, I see Jamie Windsor I click 🤷🏻♂️
That last tip is the best tip I noticed myself... I started overediting photos recently, I don't know why, so doing this really helped me. Great video!
Outstanding tips Jamie! Happy New Year... Hope 2019 brings you all of the riches that you deserve! Be well and stay encouraged :-)
Thank you. Happy new year to you too.
Thank you for the expert advise! I LOVE the way you explain things really helps me understand.
