Jim, I've been in the printing business for 32 years and I've worn many hats. From having sales and service experience to G7 process certification.
Recently, I've been challenged to inspire and motivate a Team of new Engineers to this industry. I love talking about my craft and I love teaching. However, my audience is of a younger generation, Some have come from a different industry, and I have found myself struggling to convey my passion and my enthusiasm. I loved how you put it in "Layman" terms. I will try this different approach and give you credit. I will also be subscribing. Thank you for your video.
It’s kind of you to say. It’s much appreciated.
The key to teaching online is to know your audience. My audience runs the gamut from beginner to pro, but leans to the less experienced.
I have found that throwing a lot a technical terms out causes people’s eyes to glaze over particularly if they are beginners. What I try to do is introduce a complex topic, but make it relatable in some way to something simple people can easily grasp because it is a simple/relatable example.
I also tend to do videos in a series of several related topics from the basics to the more complex subjects that are shorter rather than one long detailed video. People tend to tune out on longer length videos. Those videos then go into a playlist that I reference with the video, in the end screen, in the info cards and in the description so people can watch others, if they want, to get the whole picture on their own time.
Finally, if a topic is a difficult /advanced one, I just tell people that right away at the beginning of the video so they know what to expect upfront.
Thank you!! This is so helpful for someone looking for an overview to organize all the scattered information on youtube about this subject. SO HELPFUL!
I'm so please to hear that you found the info useful.
Good to know to eliminate bold bright colors in my work space to reduce reflection
Thanks for your continued support of my channel, Herman.
Great video sir
Thank you. I appreciate your kind words and support.
Thank you so much!
Welcome to my channel. I appreciate you tuning in.
Hi Jim,
Can you please respond to this?
1. For print+digital image service to clients
I use AdobeRGB in Camera, PanelNative hardware Calibration on my Benq SW240, and software calibration on my macbook m2 max laptop.
One of the problems I have with this is that when converting them to srgb for client deliveries, I only get to see colors after my export unless I use soft proof. Is there another way to go about this? I want to keep the camers profile to adobeRGB to ensure I have maximum colors when I need to print. However 99% of my deliveries are in srgb due to digital consumption.
Can you help out here?
Would you recommend srgb color calibration in the other slot of monitor and toggle between them?
How to see all Adobe RGB colors when Converted to SRGB… Without actually seeing it for myself, It’s a bit hard to say, but try this as a start/sample and let me know how it works.
I will say that your suggested solution at the end of your question should work (having SRGB calibration in another slot and toggling between them), but it is an additional step. I think you could do that for simplicity or try this below.
I’ve done something similar to this (although not for print) for web export and done the following:
I open the Adobe RGB image > Export > Save for Web > Embed Color Profile, Convert to sRGB.
This way the conversion should happen automatically during export.
This seems to be a similar issue to what you re having. I can only see the changes after export, not before.
I have tried (in a few cases) to do the conversion first, prior to export like this:
Open the Adobe RGB image > Edit > Convert to Profile (sRGB Profile ...) > Export > Save for Web > Embed Color Profile, Convert to sRGB.
Yes, there is a slight difference when viewing a histogram, although just looking at the images on a computer, they look the same.
After further research in the described case, I found that the conversion uses the same color engine whether you convert in Save for Web or in Edit > Convert to Profile.
However Convert to Profile offers additional control over the rendering intent. This affects how colors that are out of gamut, i.e. colors that exist in Adobe RGB but cannot be contained in sRGB, are treated.
The two options applicable here are Relative Colormetric and Perceptual.
Simplistically, Relative colormetric moves out of gamut colours into the smaller gamut, Perceptual does the same without of gamut colors but also moves some in gamut colors to maintain a perceptual difference between them. Which is best depends on the individual image.
You can turn on proof colors and see where those changes as you switch proof on and off and then adjust the image accordingly.
Save for Web will use your defaults but will not give you the functions to override them (provided the profile contains the tables to do so).
This article is old, but still has relevant info:
ninedegreesbelow.com/photography/srgb-profile-comparison.html
Another consideration:
Standard sRGB profiles only have a relative colorimetric table. You could try an sRGB profile with a perceptual rendering table (generally found in output printer profiles, not working space profiles):
www.color.org/profiles/srgb_appearance.xalter
www.color.org/srgbprofiles.xalter
Once converted to sRGB using both methods and viewed in a web browser, you can then make your own call.
Hi, where can I get the F-R-E-E DSLR & Mirrorless Camera Video Cheat Sheet? There's no link in the description.
The company I used to use went out of business. I've been trying to change the links over to my new one when I have time, but I haven't finished. Use this new link: jimcostafilms.lpages.co/dslr-mirrorless-camera-video-cheat-sheet/
@@jimcostafilms many thanks for the answer. I'll use the link ;-) If you have some programming skills, you could try mass updating the missing links through a script that connects to the UA-cam API. Otherwise to avoid similar problems in the future, I would suggest you to use an URL shortened link, instead of the actual link to the website, so that the URL under the UA-cam videos stays the same (being the shortened one), while you can update the destination link easily in the URL shortener dashboard.
@@umberto.biscotti I'll check it out. Thanks for the tip..
your link doe'snt work
Thanks for letting me know. I'll et my IT folks know. In the interim, DM me your email address and I'll send you the .PDF files you want.
