Thank you Gavin. This was excellent. You answered three big questions for me in one shot! Low key, Metering and Photoshop!

@daan-480 6 лет назад

Damn that trick with removing the softbox was so good! Learning a lot of your videos

@peter-sjoquist 6 лет назад

Gavin has probably the best tutorials. They are professional and Gavin has such a good energy, it is inspiring to listen to him. I love the simplicity of his teaching and it's easy to follow his advice step by step in order to learn. Added with the professional quality in the films, both video and audio, these are so good.

The Camera RAW part was super informative. I've been using Photoshop for a very long time and I've always done those kinds of edits 'manually' after the Camera RAW adjustments. It's effectively the same result, but this technique is really slick. Thank you.
