I am so excited to apply some of these lessons, especially the color filter info. Great speaker, terrific communicator and teacher. Would love to see more from him.
Thank you for this 47 minutes of lesson, training, I am on older version of Nik, Silver Efex is my fav, the session connected well. Regards.
When you overlap the control points are you multiplying the effect in these areas?
Brilliant. I have a lot to learn.
although I really like Silver Effx pro 3 I can't help feeling that Tech has moved on quite a lot since the inception of control point, take LR, for instance, and its AI masking tools, it is almost flawless, and although LR cant do a lot of what SEP3 can do it makes me feel that for the price we pay for NIK should we get a more AI-based masking system. Its a shame we can't just buy SEP3 on its own as that is the only plugin from NIK I and many use. AND the 3rd version is still slow to render the changes and a little clunky on the sliders, would be far better to be able to elongate the slider wide bar to extend the slider so a more fine adjustment can be made.... and am I missing a simple reset button? Thanks for the video
Hård to believe that after all this time control points still can't be elongated or inverted... Even Adobe worked this out years ago...
I finally updated from Nik collection 1 to collection 4... What a disappointment, it's just as slow and clunky to use as it ever was....
love a speaker that can avoid saying uhm and uh ..... that's not you
Dan maybe a great photographer, but he needs some diction lessons and use less "Ahms..." had to stop after a few minutes. Pity
could you do any better, working on the fly he did a great job? Not as if he is a politician or newsreader now is he...so be nice and thankful for the content
@@karlbratby4349 It's a promo video for Nik, so it's probably not something to be done on the fly, don't you think? This sort of material is usually planned carefully and done professionally. I hope sincerely that next time they will be more careful with that. I'm not what you may call an english native speaker, yet I never use the "ahm" word. Why? If repeated too often, it givers the listener the sensation that the speaker has trouble connecting his/her thoughts, especially here in YT where so many people watch the videos. I'm a user of Nik products since they first appeared so I really want them to do these things at a professional level. That's how much I estimate them.
@@MishaG9 Ahm/erm is often used as a pause, some say it's wrong others say it's just a vocal pause. Trained speakers don't do this which is why they have an, at times longer pause between sentences or thoughts. by on the fly I mean he is doing the adjustments on the fly and speaking about what he is doing, I very much doubt he has a script but maybe has a worksheet to go through his images and adjustments. If you didn't watch all the way through then you missed a few great tips. PS English is my 1st language and I'm still pretty crap at it LOL.. and I mean English by an Englishman, not American English
@@karlbratby4349 Since I'm not an english speaker by birth, my instinct tells me that such expressions are undesirable, even unpleasant; that's why I avoid them even when I speak my native language. We can surely speak our native languages without using them I'd like to think. I can't say I have mastered english, since it's my 4th language, but hey, we can try, no? Greetings
P.S. This time I will watch it complete, and check those tips, ahms be damned, haha
