Great presentation. I like that you talked thru the steps rather than executing each one tediuously. It was the right level to present, very understandable, and useful. A thoughtful approach to workflow.
Omg!!! I recently adopted the method of working through the selected images at the time. But then I realized my laptop couldn’t perform at it best😭😭.. the moment I have a new machine I’m gonna go back to that idea. Thank you Michael for the information. Happy new year !
Plenty of very useful tips that can help with any sort of photography. I even learnt two things I never knew… so thanks. 1. I never knew one could run Actions/Scripts in C1 (although the Scripts menu item does not appear in the latest version for Sony on Windows. So perhaps something specific for Macs) 2. Copy layers/adjustments into an other file using the Duplicate Layer command. That’s gonna help me.
Despite some twelve years' experience as an in-house retoucher (with my own Actions and versatile layer-stack), it apparently took me until this moment to discover that "Duplicate..." isn't simply an analogue of Cmd + J but actually useful in its own right. Much obliged.
I have your Dodge and Burn Course and, along with the Retouching Academy panels, have been working on learning retouching for the last two years. The frustrating thing is that my images get yawns where other images that photographers have used programs like Portrait Professional have people raving and drooling over them.
I edit my images knowing that the model who gets the full sized versions will be zooming in on her face. And that requires near perfection. It is not uncommon for me to be dodging and burning with a 2 or 3 pixel wide brush and removing tiny imperfections. The biggest issue i still have is skin color. Usually red and yellow patches and lines. Because with dodge and burn i am only fixing luminosity. (Unlike frequency seperation which fixes both luminosity and color). I been having some major issues fixing color if i only use dodging and burning
Hey Michael, thanks alot for this. I wanted to ask you about your d&b layers, as I see that you have a clipped layer on top of each that says saturation or desaturation. Do you touch the ssaturation after d&b for that layer? Thanks a lot!
Also, (one more), I see that when you go back to C1 you have on screen .PSD files. Do you continue working on PSDs? and if so, are those PSD flattened or do they keep all your original layers? and if so(again) how does that save? I guess this is something I can test myself, but given I wrote, it's good to ask. Gracias again!

Thank you for the kind words Tex. Glad you found it helpful.
Thank you so much Michael for the wonderful advices!
To export a PSD file from Capture One never even crossed my mind, but it makes so much sense. Thx for that tip
Awesome as usual Michael. Thanks so much
Cheers Mark, thanks for watching
Great tutorial, Michael! I edit images in your way before I saw it, but for people it's very helpful :)
Happy to hear you're already on it :)

Thanks again for another great video. I definitely spend to much time dodging and burning.
I. think it's something we are all guilty of at one point or another.
Brilliant, thanks
best thing in 2021 is going though this from you. Thank you so much.
Thanks for watching Russel. All the best for 2021!
Pretty good information with good pacing, awesome
Much appreciated

Thank you for this! Culling and obsessing over details are the worst parts for me!!! I’m going to try editing this way!
Thanks for watching :)
Amazing
Extremely helpful! Thank you!
Always interested in your content - Thank you..
Thanks so much John, cheers
Much Love !
This is brilliant!

nice one thank you
Hi! Where can I buy your actions for Photoshop?
Miss your videos, Michael.
He is back 😬. Thanks
Do you start in C1 and go to PS for retouching and back to C1 for the grade and only export once? If so, how do you get the PS from or back to C1?
First. omg. i’ve never come first before. this is amazing. so this is what that feels like 🥲
Haahaa, well done!
that's what she said
Eres el fenómeno más grande que visto en mi vida, desde España , Andalucía, gracias campeón
thanks you
Wow i came in second , it does feel great indeed

Hey Michael, do you Show your retouching workflow on Pro edu Tutorials? Or have it changed since then?
Cheers
It’s changed a little but not a great deal. The Retouch Academy courses would be the most up to date for retouching.
@@MichaelWoloszynowicz thank you!🙌🏼 happy new year!
This is was what I needed.....
Give light setup please
Looks like it's only natural light through big windows on the right side.
That last name is a mouthful... voshoveeshovish 🤣
You said to speak predominantly about Photoshop. Are you sure?
