    Dustin, your tutorials are eye opening. Especially appreciated the post-production tweaks you showed in this one. I also get a bit of a thrill at knowing there are legions of keyboard photographers that have zero reason to complain about not doing quality work because you show how it can be done with a kit lens, 50-dollar speedlights, and an IKEA lampshade.

    • @workphlo

  • @alq8879
    @alq8879 6 років тому +2

    For color variants, digital colorization, I shoot the second variant, load that image, then extract the color value. Then I use the same technique in the video. I use gimp, so they have a colorize adjustment and load in that color. Surprisingly not all silvery metallics are desaturated, only chrome is. Nickel, and most common grey metals have a touch of yellow. Hue 50, sat 5. All my photos I shoot with a white balance cap for some sort of fidelity.

  • @Photoid01

    Your how-to videos are always creative and witty. Fun and educational. I don't know whether you want to develop a full-time career out of product photography, but I have a feeling that you will be very successful at ANYTHING you do. BTW, what would you do if Broncolor decided to dump $30,000 of strobe equipment on you, like they probably did with Karl Taylor. Would you still continue with your no-nonsense approach, or would you cross over to the Dark Side?

    • @workphlo
      @workphlo  6 років тому

      Thoroughly enjoyed your comment, thanks for writing that! I thought a long while about your Broncolor question, and I have to say it would be super tempting to sell out -- but I think I would keep rocking with minimal gear! Have a great day (-:

    Hey buddy, thanks for the video you are really good! anyway i have notice some "mistakes" but i believe there were just cos you did the editing in rush for the video. . I know some shortcut that you hadn't (or hans't??) use for the selection. I try to explain me better. When you do a selection with the pen, instead to go to "Path" click on it and blablabla you gotta just click CMD+D and you got the selection. Then it was useless to clip the mask in order to rotate the clock you could just move the center of the transform selection. I don't know if you understand me as my english it's not that good and if i sound rude i apologize it wasn't on purpose, i like your video and i like to help you as you are helping me. If you don't understand what im saying text me i'll try to explain again. Cheers.

    Hi Dustin, just tried to shoot with the melody but i have my camera reflected on the glass of the watch, how you avoid these reflections? Thx in advance!!

    • @workphlo
      @workphlo  5 років тому

      When you look perfectly down, it makes sense you will flatly reflect the dark absence of light in the melodi opening. I like adjusting my angle subtly so that it doesn't reflect the dark spot, but it is indeed tricky to maneuver it flatteringly at times. Best of luck

    • @FrisodenBoer
      @FrisodenBoer 4 роки тому

      @@workphlo Hi, Thanks for the great tutorial... however the reflection is killing me :-) . when shooting straight down the black opening is too visible. I could try and photoshop this out, but that will take me too long. The watch has curvature (vertically) in the glass and that makes it even more difficult. Any tips.

    well, as a 5 year photo student I cringe at that tutorial. This method might be easy and things, and are great for a line of products, that need to be the same, but for a real product image, the light is just to flat. 2 or 3 more flashes without softboxes and a few black pieces of cardboard, and you could make this image much better.

    • @kurtsmith2547

Cuántos fotógrafos publicitarios y comerciales dejan la vida por lograr una mejor fotografía y este niño hace las fotos con displicencia y como si fuera algo que cualquier persona puede hacer!, Claro que sí, lo que hace el no es fotógrafia en realidad es una falta de respeto a la fotografía en su estado puro y una falta de respeto por todos los profesionales que enserio hacen su trabajo con dedicación y devoción!!.
    Tuve muchos asistentes en mí estudio de fotografía, incluso alumnos, y todos ellos incluso en sus comienzos fueron personas rigurosas con su sentido de la profesión, rigurosidad profesional e intelectual en todo sentido de la palabra, virtudes que este niño no tiene
