cinematic photography editing
hi how do i edit the photos to achieve cinematic tones for my photos Nov 06 12 10:14 am Link Here is a list of almost 1,000 opinions. Some good, most bad, but it's all there: http://photography-on-the.net/forum/sho … ?t=1094897 Nov 06 12 10:39 am Link Perhaps it has more to do with proper lighting at the capture stage. http://youtu.be/6sWdXYEGFI4 Untitled (The Madison) 2007 - Gregory Crewdson Nov 06 12 01:04 pm Link The basic lighting needs to be good... I use Photoshop to get the image looking the way I want it...

In Photoshop, make a curves adjustment layer and select the blue channel. Raise the shadows up and lower the highlights. In the green channel, raise the shadows about half way as the blue channel to push the shadows more towards cyan. Viola! One very popular cinematic color grade amongst many.

To achieve that, he uses focus stacking technique with help of photoshop. But his storytelling is mostly achieved by using cinematic lighting.

The day shot used a diffused speedlight as fill from the left. The day for night shot used the same speedlight as a strong key light. The sun backlight was the same for both. The post production was just working with tonal values and color for the two looks. Nov 06 12 03:56 pm Link Lighting. There is no Photoshop in cinema. Nov 06 12 04:27 pm Link Tim Foster wrote: false.
