Hi Glyn,

Just wanted to take a mo to thank you for creating the April webinar tips and techniques video (finally set aside some time to sit and watch it!) and to let you know how enjoyable and informative i found it to be. Some great tips here and a lot to take away from it but personally i found the whole compositing thing to be fascinating and left me wanting more!

I’ve tried it on a couple of images and the tips you gave work just great. Just got to practice a bit more and work now on refining those edges a bit to make it blend more seamlessly lol.

I used to be a bit wary and, if i’m honest, a tad sceptical in the past about composit imaging, thinking i’d lose days of my life in the black hole that can be Photoshop sometimes, trying to come up with something that in the end wouldn’t amount to much. Your top-notch series of great character portraits have proved to me that the effort can be so worthwhile and i hope to give one of your workshops a go sometime in the near future.

Thanks once again for your kindness in posting and look forward to future posts. Nice to see you and your buddy Dave enjoying a bit more recognition for your efforts too these days.

Best regards,

Will.

Fantastic work on that video/webinar. Even for someone that knows a lot of these types of techniques there’s something to be learned from each segment. I really liked the section of adding the light source in a way that doesn’t turn it grey. I add those all the time and never really even gave the color a second thought aside from tinting it yellow or something. Great stuff all around.

Glyn,

Thank you so much for this wonderful tutorial.

Having it recorded allowed me to pause the video whilst I took notes, go back where necessary to make sure I understood what had happened, and allow me to view it again after trying a few techniques out on my own. It’s much better than seeing it live and trying desperately to keep up whilst I scribbled at the same time as watching.

Your techniques are so well explained, well illustrated, and you have the gift of being able to explain it in a straightforward manner, making the seemingly complex appear simple.

Thank you again for sharing your knowledge.

Dave

Well that was brilliant Glyn. Very clear, easy to follow and fairly easy techniques that have a big impact on the final image. Can’t wait to get to try them. I must be getting better, only 6 pages of notes this time The colour/color matching really makes a big difference to the final look, it’s a step that’s so easy to miss yet you’ll look at your image & think, it’s not quite there yet. Really useful tips that crop up often in real world editing that many people will benefit from.
Perhaps a Wacom tablet should be next on the list, it’s been demonstrated to me many times how much nicer & quicker you can work on image editing.
Look forward to future tutorials & seeing what you & Dave come up with next time.

Cheers, JT

Hi Glyn,

Great to meet up last Saturday, albeit briefly. It was a long day for me! Having said that I thoroughly enjoyed the whole thing.

Congratulations on being chosen by Scott to do a guest appearance. We’ll be queuing for your autograph soon!

Look out for a blog post from me very soon about the seminar which will include an image and speed edit video putting a few of the techniques learnt to use.

Great tips on the video by the way.

Regards

Tim Pursall
