hi! i'm sure you get tons of asks about your editing, but I actually wanna know how you get your reshade to work in the night time. night time shots are always a nightmare for me.
oh anon how I feel your pain ;-; for me, I think game lighting is key in this case! Say, this shot:
I had background lamps to set the lighting, aside from the main ones, changed the colors and intensities up to my liking (nearest is stronger, furthest is dimmer) while I had reshade on. but pay attention bc you don’t want it to look too bright, it’s night after all!
I also spent a ton of time editing my reshade with night time, to kind of get it where I wanted it to be, adjusting brightness, levels, curves, etc, and it still needs some work! I’d say keep an eye out for the filmic pass bc that could drastically change everything!
But again, ps editing, it makes the difference, trust me! Even if it looks washed out or too dark w reshade, let it, and simply use adjustment layers (brightness or levels, or both), or lighting effects when editing!
ooh. your version of it looks amazing. Would you ever put it up for DL or make one of your own for us? If not it's alright. ^^ <3 I also like the lighting editing you do. I love your photos. <3
awww thank you so much anon 💕 unfortunately I’m pretty sure I can’t put an edited version of the preset up for dl, but I could maybe someday try and make one? I’m a bit lost when it comes to making presets from scratch tho
I’m super happy you like my photos and editing that means so much to me :(( ty for the support!! ♡♡
what reshade preset do you use? it's got such a nice neutral color to it that is just perfect. Is it custom or did someone else make it? ;o
hello anon!! thank youuu, I use a very very very edited version of this one! But I’m gonna be honest, most of my posts rely on photoshop lighting and editing, so reshade acts as a ‘primary layer’.
Here’s a simple example of reshade vs edited that no one asked for! (under the cut)
Hey there ♡ Do you have any tips for finding the best camera angle for screenshots? 🤔😘 Sunny hugs from Germany! 🌞
Honestly just take about 100 photos of the same pose from every angle. I know that’s a little OTT but it’s what I do, and after I’ll rifle through all the screenshots to try and find the right ones.
A better tip? Take screenshots of clutter, characters body language, Hell even the ugly seagulls the game provides; this adds depth. Rather than just always taking face shots, this is what I was guilty of when I first started Starcrossed! ♥️💕
