Dear Joanna, A million thanks for the immense work you've put into your instructional videos. You incredibly inspire my growth and work; I hang on your every word and eagerly watch your beautiful creations. ❤ Kind regards: Beci from Hungary 🎉
Hi Joanna, I just found your Masterclass videos and they are amazing!! Thankyou for your time and sharing your knowledge! 👍❤️🙂 Do you use a hood on your monitor? How does that work with the light bar? If you can only use one, is it better to use a hood or the light? Do you calibrate your monitor with the light bar turned on? Thanking you, Paul 😊
Wait.. Mona Lisa was painted in the '70s?? jokes aside, thank you for making this great course, I've been looking for something like this for quite a while, and to find so much valuable and helpful knowledge for free is truly a extraordinary gift. Bless you!
4:42 essa história que fotografo tem que ter essas tablets, ou mesas digitalizadoras, é papo pra ganharem comissão, isso é bom para quem é ilustrador, e faz o desenho digital, quando se faz fotografias, ou melhor, você tem lá um monte de foto para editar, vc otimiza seu trabalho, até cenas que há correções no LRC de clone, vc copia e cola, foto tem que ser editada em menos de 3 minutos, se não começa a ter prejuízo, imagina casamento então que com 3 câmeras vc tem facilmente mais de 7 mil fotos... enfim ... balela
I keep coming back to this gem every year and each time there is more to learn as my skills advance. Thank you, Joanna, for the best video I've seen on the subject.
Początkuję w potoshopie. Podpowiesz jakich narzędzi używasz do zmian fizycznych na zdjęciu? Prosty włos zamieniasz w lok, dodajesz kawał sukienki, liść, czy fragmenty ubioru. Dzięki:)
The only bad thing about this video is the sound - the voice over is only on the the left channel. But then again, why should a pro photographer care about audio ;-)
As someone with full fledged synesthesia, I can tell that all theories on psychology of colors are near complete bullshit, and as swiftly mentioned here at the beginning, depend on personal visual culture which can HIGHLY differ from one another. A same color can hold two diametral meanings, mostly depending on the context for a same person. For example blue can be soft and calming or intense and lively, explosive to me depending on the context, as well as it can be the color of despair, fadeness and total depression, ice cold like the body of somebody dying, or the color of a body in its first stages of rot in the cold. British will see green as a positive color, French will see green as the color of sickness. The two countries are right next to each other and the same civilization today (Western), so really relying on cultural perception is very very risky if not stupid. You either study that all your life to know what to present to specific audiences -and you'll never get it perfectly right as not everyone is the same in a large audience-, or you get to understand that only the context (what colors are together) and the saturation of each individual color matter. So really, trust a synesthete for whom all thinking and feelings are in colors: the only two things that matter are the context (what other color is present in the frame, "color relations") as well as palettes of saturation. Anything else is words salad for the pleasure of sounding intellectual. Period. It's like music. A single note is a single note, won't be intereprated as music, it barely conveys any emotion and most people can't even distinguish one from another. Add a second note creating an interval, boom, you get a feeling, actual music and sounds that people can now distinguish and recognize (and a more distinguishable color)
This is the GOD level of presentations. Opened my eyes yesterday, watching it for a second time now. Its nice to see that instinctively some of the things I was doing with colours, especially workflow in photoshop - it was almost the same! Time to step the game up. THANK YOU! This was priceless. Best accidental find on RU-vid to date!
This puts into words, what my brains has been doing forever and I appreciate the science behind it. Great detail and explanation of the color wheel and relationships. The visuals and detailed photos have given me a wealth of new knowledge and ideas for my photos, light, and surroundings. Thank you!!!
After learning about color theory and watching Queens Gambit on Netflix, wow they certainly chose every single thing with color in mind. Great teaching.
Holy... this has tremendous density of good advice. Of course I heard about color wheels and color spaces before, but for the first time I understand why I should listen. And so much collateral advice, e. g. "don´t expose you eyes to mediocre color choices", which is basically "learn from the best" and resonates with my experience (for all kind of things). Thanks for sharing
DOROTA is a SUPERSTAR of an assistant, best friend and potential model too...The entire team was fantastic in my book; very patient, creative and willing to help. Awesome work everyone.🙌
This is the endth time I've watched your tutorial, that has been my inspiration for video grading for several years. I find I enjoy photography grading more than video, because it is far more flexible and it allows for more room as the story doesn't have to take the forefront. Of course there are differences, but photography is closer to painting than cinema, and this course just looks great and is the one I keep coming back to on and on to see what I now understand as opposed to when it came out and then I didn't understand certain relationships as I do now with tint and shade and saturation. Thank you, J. Kustra.
Your tutorial "Secrets of color- grading in photography" is THE BEST ( at least for me)! I try to match with other (paid) tutorial (that tutorial was good but not as good as yours).. (sorry for my poor English).
The subjectivity of color psychology (a very interesting topic) can be clearly confirmed when saying "yellow" IT IS ASSOCIATED WITH BOTH THE GOOD AND THE BAD...for me that is nonsense, throwing mud to see if it sticks ...Very grateful for sharing this interesting video!
Very beautiful pictures, personally I don't think the skin tone should be so retouched so it's not natural anymore but I guess that's what the industri demands.
