In advance of our workshop on Hollywood Lighting in Los Angeles, on May 13th & 14th, 2017, I am posting this detailed tutorial on B&W portrait technique in Photoshop. This is the post processing part of our workshop exploring George Hurrell style lighting techniques. Here I show how to use multiple channels, blended together in Layers, to generate an idealized B&W conversion from a color photo, as well as:
• Liquify for figure shaping
• The Photo Filter for sepia toning
• A split toning technique
• The new Iris Blur filter in CS6
This video is part of my course: “The Fundamentals of Photo-Illustration in Photoshop” – the course contains 15 projects, 9 hours of video plus 2.5 gigs of sample files, layered Psd documents, PDFs, etc… Click below to purchase the course:
