Black & White Portrait Retouching | Silver Efex Pro Tutorial
Great tutorial.
very nice tutorial. personnally i would have made all retouching in sep2 with u-points structure, lightness, contrast, fine structure,… and would have used zone system to check we cover zones 1..9.
Great Software with excellent flexibility, but why not do all your touch up brushing in LR with the RAW file B4 exporting to Silver Efex Pro??
Hey Everyone, I have been getting a lot of feedback on the music for my videos. Turns out its just hard to find any one type of music that compliments the video tutorial that everyone agrees on, that and some just do not like music period. So for this video I have only included intro and outtro music with the rest of the video tutorial without music. So what I would like is everyones feedback.
Please post your vote by commenting below. YES for keeping the music through out the videos, or NO you rather like the limited music done like in this video. Thanks, Joe 🙂
