I’ve always found this method easier to work with and feel it tends to produce better results. However you should be aware that the results aren’t the same as working on a copied layer, especially when you change the setting from midtones to either shadows or highlights.
Very professional video, Howard! I use a similar technique. I hold down the Alt key and click the new layer icon. That opens a dialog in which I change the mode to Overlay and check the 50% gray fill box. Next, I tap “B” and “D” to select the Brush and the default Black/White colors. Using the Brush lets me switch between dodging & burning by simply tapping “X”. I use this so often that I have recorded those steps into an Action with F2 as the hotkey. I open a file, tap F2, and go to work.
Howard, thank you for this vid. Quick question though: ‘why’ the grey color. I’ve seen you and a few others utilize grey but I can’t recall a single ‘explanation’ or defining need as to why you use the grey vs white or black or orange or another color… I’m positive there’s a means to reason, I just don’t understand the relevance. Can you help me here please?
Ctrl+Alt+Z.
Thank you!
ctrl + Alt + z to go beyond the last undo….or command + control + z on a mac.
This is slightly off-subject, but what’s the shortcut you use to undo? I’ve always noticed that you can undo what you’ve done say, from step 3 to 2 to 1… I know I can use ctrl + Z but for me that only takes me from step 3 to 2 and back to 3 again…
Great tutorial btw!
I thought that zooming, panning with other hand could be useful.
How can you not like this?
Great. Thanks.
awesome!
great video, thanks!
I’ve answered this question a few times: This method allows you to hide everything BUT the burning/dodging, which will be helpful if there are other layers above or below. Plus, you can easily decrease the Opacity to reduce the strength.
I’ve been painting with brown and bright yellow with overlay to achieve this, this is definitely much easier
You need to subscribe to TED Talks or scishow, then.
To be honest the only reason i watch these videos is because this guy is awesome and the things he does are interesting, i don’t actually use photoshop xD
I got the touch, its not that responsive so i dont use that function at all
