Thank you
Hi Alex, thank you for this lesson. I just created 2 styles and they respond well but I have no Icons in the Style menu..... that's very odd. Why is this?
💕Loved 💕
CLUTCH!!!! There when I needed it most... Thank you.
What is your software for recording your screen?
I am using OBS. it's free and it's good. It's a bit of a pain until you set it up... but after that is ok.
It was CTRL-J for me, thanks for letting us know about that shortcut.
@AlexTaraPhoto how will that work with the Ipad License can i buy on desktop and then log in from my ipad to download there without appstore? I am also looking a discount.
You can buy the iPad version or the Affinity desktop. Or they have now a bundle where you can buy it all at a cheaper price. But the desktop version doesn't work on ipad.
Did you use photo flo?
I haven’t, no. Is it good?
@@AlexTaraPhoto I havent used it myself. I have heard many comments about it. The best results i have seen is by using a small air blower and a camera's brush
Thanks for the video... funny thing is I can't seem to open the Macro window while in develop persona, so it doesn't really let me open a .CR2 file like you did here, just the developed version. I wonder if there was another update. My original goal was to just change the white balance for over 750 raw photos to 3000K... which I can do one by one using that number, but the only way to get to the macro window is to develop the photo, then the option to set the white balance to a specific number isn't available.
You need to tell people where you found the Refine image palette. It's under Select menu, at the bottom. also, where is the subtract menu you chose at 4:55?
Thank you! Took me so long to find this video, i just wanted to add my FX style to the default selection. Thanks to you, I got it!! 😀
EXCELLENT video. You know (I'm also coming from photoshop). The first thing I tried was CMD-J and it doesn't work with Photo V2.
Like the video, love the ideas of cropping.. really effective at the end😊
Thanks so much! 😊
Nice video.. would you do same thing with few of my shots but in Lightroom?
Sure. Send me a few images that you want to be reviewed and I will do a video.
👏👍 interessante
Thanks! I'm new to Affinity and got 2.0 recently, but I couldn't find a 2.0 guide for this. Much appreciated!
Glad it helped! Affinity 2.0 is new but the changes are not major. You can follow old guides and tutorials. Let me know if you want to know more about Affinity.
Thank you!
You're welcome! Glad I could help.
Thanks good tutorial. I wonder why affinity does not have a better leveling option compared to other apps
I hope that they will improve in the bear future. It's not that hard to do that.
@@AlexTaraPhoto I have not explored version 2 yet
Thank you all for watching this video. There are a few more ways to create shadows in Affinity Photo - what is your favourite option? Leave a comment below ⬇️
Let me know in the comments below what video should I do next!
Oh wow, I love that Golden Spiral option!
Can't you make all icons bigger? I can't find anything in the documentation. Some of us have bad eyes ;-)
Hi, I changed the tools that I use and now I have Zoom functions in my videos. I do apologize for this inconvenience.
@@AlexTaraPhoto 😂 it was in the Affinity Designer toolbars I meant 😂 your video is perfect. But in CorelDraw and many other programs one can change the size of the tools in the toolbar. I am using a 43" screen so I have to take my glasses on everytime I have to find the right tool and take them of when I am fumbling around with a project :-)
something so simple that could be fixed by affinity and they don't seem to have the option to make the icons bigger... I'm having the same issue...in fact, I use adobe BECAUSE of that issue... at least until affinity can make the icons bigger. Time is money for me and I don't have time to hunt around for tools.
@@AaronsMediaCompany If they could do it as LightBurn does it I would be amazed :-) For now, I have settled within Windows system screen settings to set the screen scale to 175% :-)
@@PerB_M I talked directly to a rep at affinity and they plan to bring this up in an upcoming meeting.
🥰🥰🥰
Thank you - simple yet effective!
I'm glad you liked it. I'm working now on AffinityPhoto V2.0 - If you want to cover something let me know in the comments.

Congrats and thank you!
Thank you
You sound like Dinesh from Silicon Valley. I mean this with all affection.
Genial....
Thank you
Great job! Love the chilled music, too.
This video was very helpful for me. I am a total beginner in editing software and chose Affinity over Adobe. I’ve been successful bulk loading, shooting and developing B&W film (because I’ve done it 50 yrs ago). I’m excited to try your workflow because it gets straight to the point to get a good result converting a negative for the first time. Many other videos from others bore me explaining all the buttons n switches for things I’m not knowledgeable about. This video uses auto corrections that should get me to a result and create confidence to explore more
I'm glad you enjoyed it.
Hi AlexTara Suggestion for future. Please use larger cursor and move cursor much slower and/or find a way to show viewers a zoomed in view of what you are clicking on. I had to watch your video multiple times to find the straighten tool in the crop tool. Now that I found this button I can find it again. I have not found yet where the tools are to do the auto adjustments. Last night I could not make my screen look like yours. Tonight I’m gonna click the Affinity logo and see if I can find where to do the invert and corrections. I have only used RAW files (because I’ve learned it’s best for editing) so Affinity directly opens in Develop Persona. I assumed that the Affinity logo was just a logo not realizing there might be functionality behind it. You might also explain a just a little more why you clicked the develop button before you went somewhere else. Finally it would be really helpful for us total beginners how to save the work and exit. Your video parallels a training technique I’ve used in the past. Here’s what doesn’t work “describe all the buttons and sliders, before I want to do a task”. Sessions are long boring and users attention wanders. It’s better to give users a task and see if they can figure out what to do. If they can then your software developers and GUI designers have done a good job. If there are problems with accomplishing the task then the users are engaged to be trained. IE: Task based training vs button and menu training.
@@Vintage35MM Sorry for the late reply. I was out for a few weeks. But Wow. This is nice feedback. I've implemented already a mouse pointer highlighter and also zoom in and out where the mouse is. Hopefully, that will clear things out. Let me know if you managed to work it out. You can send me a message on youtube if you need more info and we can jump into a zoom call for a few minutes to discuss it. I will definitely implement more of your suggestions in the next videos. Alex
What a nice surprise! I can't wait to see the results. Hope you find some gems in there, maybe a great story. Good luck!
Take a foto of the film and than restore it the digital version
Thank you so much for this video.
You are so welcome!
nice thanks this helps alot :)
nice and useful video
I’m glad you enjoyed it ❤️

Nice video of how to create a watch face although i feel obliged to point out that there are only 60 minutes in an hour. Time really would fly by with your watch. Or is it that time would drag by?
OMG 😱 you are completely right. I was so focused on the how to and recording the process that I’ve ignored the actual counting of the minutes :))) Let’s say that it’s just a wonky design:)
thank you, short, straight forward, very helpful!
I'm glad you liked it
beautiful

Extremely well done! Thanks much.
Thank you😀
