Photoshop World, Orlando: Day 2

Hey Everyone,

Unsurprisingly we’re having an incredible time here at Photoshop World, Orlando.

Yesterday I gave my presentation called  Successful Shoots…Guaranteed where I went through the process that I use to make sure that each and every single photo shoot I have produces results.

HUGE thanks to everyone who came along, for all the great feedback and for laughing at all my ermmm, jokes:)

In the evening it was off to BB Kings for the After Show Party where the entire venue was hired out exclusively for Photoshop World attendees: Great location, great food, great company, great music…yep, a GREAT night for sure!

With Pete Collins, “RC” Concepcion, Matt Kloskowski and Joe McNally

Big Electric Cat ROCKING IT!!!

Ok so later today I’m teaching my Photoshop Fast and Furious Class in the N.A.P.P. Theatre on the Expo Floor from 1.15pm so I’m going to make a move and go over my notes again before catching a class.

Have a great day and I’ll catch you tomorrow,
Enjoy,
Glyn

Photoshop World, Orlando: Day 1

Hey Everyone,

How’s it going?

Well today is officially Day 1 of Photoshop World, Orlando with yesterday having been Pre Conference Workshops.

I had an absolute blast teaching a SOLD OUT LIVE Shoot and Compositing Class with Matt Kloskowski where we went through the whole process of shooting and retouching two different models with two completely different themes: a Sports Shoot (Basketball Player) and a themed Cinderella Shoot.

In the evening it was then out for the Instructor Meal and then the Tweet Up / Meet Up by the Hotel Pool until the early hours.

With Joel Grimes ~ Caption “You NEED to come to Photoshop World”:)

So today kicked off with the opening keynote which is always entertainment in bucket loads with this years’ theme being Top Gun:

Later today at 6.15pm I’ve my Successful Shoots…GUARANTEED class, and then tonight it’s out to BB Kings for the After Hours Party.

Right must dash…time to head down to the Expo Floor so have a great day and I’ll catch you tomorrow,
Enjoy,

Video: Physique Retouching Techniques (N.A.P.P.)

Hey Everyone,

Well it’s Friday already so today I’ve one final Quick Post for this week.

So seeing as there’s been a few videos this week I thought I’d keep with tradition and finish the week off with one more.

The video tutorial is one that’s I recorded for the N.A.P.P. (National Association of Photoshop Professionals) Member’s website whilst out in Tampa, Florida last November filming with Kelby Training.

In this latest video tutorial which is roughly 10 minutes long, i go through a handful of retouching techniques that I regularly use when working on pictures of Bodybuilders, Sports Athletes and so on.

Body Shaping, Adding Definition, Dodging and Burning techniques are covered but they’re not just techniques for use on muscular physiques as they can just as easily be used effectively on any portrait.

Hope you enjoy it.

Check out the video on the Members’ website here [Link]

As always if you have any questions then don’t hesitate to get in touch either by using the comments section below or by emailing me at glyn@glyndewis.com

In the mean time though, whatever you’re up to this weekend have a good one and I’ll catch you back here in a few days.
Enjoy,
Glyn
