About the event
Join me, Dylan Giannakopoulos for my first online post-processing series, Breakdown This Edit! In these workshops, I'll take you through the step-by-step process of how I edit my RAW files into the final product. Each session is tailored to a specific genre of photography, focusing on different techniques to help you unlock the full potential of your RAW files.
In this session, I will be breaking down an image I captured in Positano, Italy. Working in both Adobe Lightroom Classic and Photoshop, I will be demonstrating:
- My image workflow; starting from importing and cataloguing my images to the final stages of post-processing.
- The use of luminosity masks to seamlessly combine five exposures captured during a fiery Positano sunset.
- Processing RAW files in Lightroom to prepare them for blending in Photoshop.
- Creating midtone luminosity masks to add contrast to your images.
- Masking techniques to make precise and localised adjustments.
After the workshop, attendees will receive a recording of the session, allowing you to revisit and reference the step-by-step processes I used. This will enable you to integrate these techniques into your own post-processing workflow. You will also receive a copy of my Photoshop Actions that I will be using in the demonstration.
If you’re looking for feedback on your edits or photography as a whole, why not join me for a Wine, Cheese and Photography session?
