Photoshop Artist in Action: Tim Grey's Photo Optimization Techniques

Photoshop Artist in Action: Tim Grey's Photo Optimization Techniques

with Tim Grey

 


In this course Tim Grey takes a unique approach to teaching you to optimize your images in Photoshop. Rather than focusing on a particular "category" of adjustments, or being organized strictly by topic, this course will concentrate on specific images. Work along with Tim as he examines each image, sets goals for the final result, and optimizes the image based on those goals. Along the way you'll gain insights into tonal and color adjustments, image cleanup techniques, creative effects, and much more.
Topics include:
  • RAW conversion and processing
  • Spot removal
  • Cropping and straightening
  • Adding local contrast
  • Black-and-white conversion
  • Correcting perspective with Transform
  • Enhancing detail with High Pass
  • Applying HDR tone-mapping
  • Adding a custom vignette
