Too much shine on her forehead

Young · 09-01-2005, 11:34 PM

Tennis pic looks good

mkx · 09-01-2005, 11:36 PM

Thanks Young, think you can take one of the before pics and turn it into what it should look like? I am going to quickly grab some chicken wings and a coffee so I can edit the rest of these photo's tonight. I'll be back in 20ish

Dont use any of Photoshops Auto settings. They suck. Use the auto preview to your advantage and just tweak the contrast, color balance and levels until it is to your liking. Play with the levels yourself. Unsharp Mask words wonders...use it at the end.

Other than that I used a combination of the blur, sharpen, clone, and burn tools for her skin, facial features, and the background.

Practice makes perfect.

mkx · 09-02-2005, 12:14 AM

Thanks again. So this should be done over and over again for 1000's of pictures or is there an easy way to automate it.

Vitasoy · 09-02-2005, 12:18 AM

Yea the tennis one only looks good.

Well if you take a certain set with the same lighting, in the same area. Then you should be able to create an indvidual action script for each set that can give you pretty much the results you desire as far as color correction, contrast, sharpness etc.

of course the touch ups and airbrushing part can't be automated.

ok now im off to bed.

mkx · 09-02-2005, 12:26 AM

Ok that sounds reasonable. Thanks for your help!

PussyTeenies · 09-02-2005, 12:28 AM

tennis pic is one of the better ones

porn-dog · 09-02-2005, 01:59 AM

How about you turn her around and let me see her ass... then I will give an honest opinion... ;)

yeah Im no PS geek but the originals look way better

Bobby_the_pyn · 09-02-2005, 02:13 AM

I agree, dont use the auto features.
and as fas as action scripts go, it's almost impossible because your lighting is always going to be different. I like to play w/ the curves & levels and some times the brightness/contast-although its rare.

Alright thanks! I'll crop them all first and then brainstorm a decent procedure.

Should I bother making the originals in the first setting more bright or should I just focus on the sharpness?

uh blur sharpen contrast and 25 others. Im not even half as good as others are here, get someone to redo your pics, there are plenty who make TGP thumbs etc, they do an amazing job, just post a request... If you get a few 100 done theyll get you a nice price Im sure.

mkx · 09-02-2005, 02:32 AM

Alright yah maybe I will do that. What's the market price per pick for a few hundred?

reynold · 09-02-2005, 02:33 AM

some of your optimization are too sharp. anyway you are doing good.

abyss_al · 09-02-2005, 02:49 AM

here's a quick one: (2 min)

BillyHoe · 09-02-2005, 02:51 AM

I think you need to adjust the setting on your camera, instead of using Photoshop as your save all. You're not letting enough light in. Even the outdoor shot looks darks.

mkx · 09-02-2005, 03:20 AM

Alright thanks for the help and tips everyone. I will maybe get someone to do the photo editing and thumbs for now.

Smartest post in the thread so far. Fiddle around with your camera settings and learn what they do, and you'll have less work to do after the fact, if any.

The tennis one is pretty good. And the adjustments the other guys have posted look great.

what he said

sinclair · 09-02-2005, 09:12 AM

I agree with the above post. Do more leg work to adjust in camera and save time in post production. You really need to work on your white balance more than anything.

Sinclair

mkx · 09-02-2005, 01:45 PM

Alright well I just picked up a 20d and was just fiddling around with it in auto mode. I will adjust the settings on it for the next shoot.
