How to Wow - Photo Enhancing & Creative Effects with Jack Davis DVD-ROM Jack will teach you traditional and contemporary photo enhancement techniques like Watercolor, Antique Re-coloring, Tinting, Solarizing, Cross-Processing, Highpass Filter, Diffuse Glow, Textures, Edges, Blend Modes, Creative Focus and more! Lessons Chapter 1 : Enhancing & Embellishing Lesson 1 : Adding Density with Blend Modes Make your images ‘pop’ by adding subtle saturation and contrast while retaining shadow detail – all without touching your original. Lesson 2 : Diffused Glows Soften the mood and accentuate shapes, while also adding depth and richness to your photos – with this incredibly quick and flexible technique. Lesson 3 : Popping Images with Highpass Use an often overlooked filter to increase the apparent sharpness of an image and exaggerate dimension by automatically “dodging and burning” around elements in the photograph. Lesson 4 : Density & Color Gradient “Style Filters” Learn to easily and instantly simulate traditional graduated neutral density and color lens filters to selectively darken or tint areas of an image. Lesson 5 : Creative Focus Control Help tell a story by creating a dreamlike atmosphere, where the diffused areas of a photo are appearing through a mist. Lesson 6 : Depth of Field Altering Simulate a shortened depth of field with precise control, and thus pinpoint exactly where attention is focused in an image. Lesson 7 : Motion Blurring & Variations Explore multiple ways to add the illusion of motion to your image to add a dynamic component to your static image or to minimize unwanted distractions. Chapter 2 : Color & Tone Treatments Lesson 8 : Color to B&W Conversions Create no-compromise conversions that include the best of every element in your image using single and multiple Channel Mixer adjustment layers. Also see how easy it is to simulate infrared effects from your color originals. Lesson 9 : Layer Style Tinting Learn how to quickly tint a photograph (as well as add shadows, glows and vignettes) using Photoshop’s Layer Styles feature, and also how to easily save and apply the effects to other images. Lesson 10 : Advanced Multi-tones Go beyond single-color tinting, and sculpt a multi-toned look. This is similar to making a traditional duotone or quadtone, but optimized for quality, flexibility and speed. Lesson 11 : Matching Color This lesson covers multiple ways to match colors from one product to another, match a product to a custom PMS swatch, as well as how to match the overall color and white balance of two images. Lesson 12 : Quick Antique Re-coloring Two methods to automatically create the impression of an antique hand-tinted photograph. Quickly and selectively add color back to portions of a custom black-and-white conversion. Lesson 13 : Hand Tinting Start with a black-and-white photograph, and use Photoshop’s paint tools and blend modes to simulate the hand-coloring treatments of old – with incredible quality and control - without all the clean-up. Lesson 14 : Solarizing & Cross-Processing Effects Create expressive and edgy solarizing/sabatier treatments, exaggerated tonal halos, and cross-processing color effects - without all the darkroom fumes! Chapter 3 : Artistic Effects & Overlays Lesson 15 : Soft-edged Framing Learn to use multiple techniques for creating customized soft-edged framing treatments - from graphic to textured to grunge. Lesson 16 : Brush Stroke Edge Effects Quickly create a hand-painted brushed-edge effect to turn a picture into a work of art. Lesson 17 : Creating a Deckled Edge Use this technique to add a realistic-looking torn paper edge (and a complimentary patterned background) to your photography. Lesson 18 : Canvas Texture Treatments Apply instant canvas (and other natural media) overlays to your image, and add creative dry brush framing to create Insta-art! Lesson 19 : Texture & Noise Overlay Treatments How to add some natural looking texture, patterns, or “earthy grunge” to your image, and give it a whole new personality. Lesson 20 : Turning a Photo into a Painting Be amazed at this hands-on technique for transforming a photograph into a very personalized and expressive watercolor painting.
