#photoshop process

Let's talk photo editing!

How I took this photo to this photo:

First step is cropping. III is blurry and the mic stand & the Espera are distracting, so we'll crop them out. One of the biggest tips I’ve ever received as a concert photographer is to never be afraid of cropping!

Next, we edit. For this picture, I want to darken the background, add saturation to Vess's mask to make it pop, and generally increase the contrast while making the photo crisp and clear.

Overall edits: Exposure -0.49; Contrast +13; Highlights -1; Shadows +29; Whites +6; Blacks -15; Texture +16; Clarity +1; Sharpening +89.

I personally don't like to keep background tech in the photos if I can help it, so I use a combination of Lightroom and Photoshop to patch/clone/fill/heal (and/or paint over) the lights, IV's mic stand, and white lines on the stage:

Now that Vess looks like he's in some mysterious bathypelagic ocean depth, I need to add some interest back to the background. I love dust overlays, so here I add one of my favorites and play with the blend modes - for this one I used Pin Light.

It adds a weird texture to his mask and cloak, so I select Vess and copy him onto a new layer above the overlay.

And that's it! You can see the final photo posted here in all its glory.

Behind the scenes of Bentley Buckaroo 2

//ooc: WARNING ITS A BIT FLASHY!

I thought maybe you might want to see the process of how Bentley Buckaroo actually gets done. Its a lot of cutting and sticking and being silly but these procreate videos remove most of the sillyness so thats great

You can see me floundering with the aeroplane a little, haha!

I hope this was interesting to see! Sorry for the flashyness

thanks everyone for a great Buckeroo!//
