    Depth masking, distance attenuation, luminance masking for selective adjustments especially, are all tried and proven techniques.
    Adobe's Neural Filters are an attempt to bring these concepts into an integral workflow.
    Thanks for sharing your inspired insights and workflow 👍

    A close second to luminosity masks - great tip! 🫡
    (Maybe consider dialling back the volume on your music channel though; it's a bit distracting. 😉)

  • @JamesMiddletonDesign

    Another method: CTRL "A" the depth layer. Delete the layer. Go into quickmask (Q) and paste. Come out of quickmask (Q) and the tonal information of the original depth map is now a selection with variable opacity. You could create an adjustment layer with this selection, and even CTRL SHIFT "I" (AYE) it into an inverse. I know this is very similar to what you have already shown. Just another take on the same method. Good work.

    I'm not going to totally slam the background music as annoying. But I have hearing loss and it is more difficult to hear spoken words with loud background sounds. At least reduce the volume of the music tract. I liked and subscribed from watching this video.

    Hadn't seen that before. Can you use the depth map as a mask to just apply the effect gradationally across the image, rather than as a way to select separate depth portions?

    • @SteveArnoldPhoto
      @SteveArnoldPhoto  8 місяців тому +1

      If I understand your question, I think the answer is that the depth map / mask is already doing that because it's gradual shades of grey at different depths. I simplified the explanation in the video to put it in the context of background/foreground, but there is a bit more subtlety to it which i think is what you're asking about.

    If I have understood you well, you get the background and foreground masks from the depth map layer, don't you?. What happens with the middle ground?

    • @SteveArnoldPhoto
      @SteveArnoldPhoto  8 місяців тому +1

      ah well actually the depth masks are gradated with varying levels of grey from front to back. I have simplified the concept in this video but there is more detail in the depth from foreground to background.

    I hate BS like this!!! They never tell you everything you need. When I go into that filter my layers disappear! I've tried to find them but can not. I get half the screen filled with the filer adjustments and the other half with the shot. So how do I get the layers panels back????????

    • @SteveArnoldPhoto
      @SteveArnoldPhoto  7 місяців тому +8

      you know, im a real person and you can ask nicely if you need extra help with something.
      I'm not sure you're giving all the information I need to help you figure out the problem, but it sounds like you're opening the neural filter screen and then wondering where your layers panel has gone...
      The neural filter screen is an overlay on top of the regular photoshop window. When you make the change and click OK, the filter screen will close and you'll see your image and all your layers again.
      When you follow the steps exactly as shown, it'll work.
