Toy Photography Tutorial: Post-Processing & Editing Featuring Mythic Legions

In this Toy Photography Tutorial, I'll take you behind the scenes and break down my photoshoot featuring Xylona's Flock from the Mythic Legions line of action figures. I'll take you through my post-processing and editing workflow and give you some tips on using Lightroom to make your shots look better and Photoshop layers to combine images using masks.

Great behind the scenes tutorial 👏

[@OneSixShooter]

Thanks! Glad you liked it!

[@chasemagnitude2578]

Thank you for sharing. I thought I was the only one that did multiple shoots on multiple days with figures with changes to positions and adjustments. Glad to see the process is common. Thank you for putting this video together.

It's so important to note how much lighting technique plays a role, just as much as if lighting for a full feature film. All the bouncing lights, color temperature matching, etc. This is a great way to introduce and reinforce this concept for fellow toy photographers. Excellent video! Looking forward to more.

[@OneSixShooter]

Thanks very much! More to come

[@gonickyourself]

Fantastic tutorial Trevor! I hope people see this tutorial for what it is… extremely helpful. The pictures definitely do the figures justice. 👍

I love this in-depth shot breakdown. This is probably the best mythic legion shot for me so far. For years, I have banned myself from using photoshop on my shots until recently when I discovered Mythic Legions and came to appreciate how incredibly awesome your shots are. I also have been curious about how beautiful the fog and smoke on your shots are. Now I know the secret sauce. I also Installed lightroom. There's a bunch of convenience feature that you've shown there.
One question, the lume cube colored lights, do you not recommend using them directly on the subjects because the light is harsh and is not spread better? I noticed that you are always using colored gels instead.
I sincerely appreciate you sharing this. ♥️👌This is awesome!

[@OneSixShooter]

Thanks for that! Yeah, PS and LR are just tools to pull out the best in an image and don't have to be used to add all kinds of special effects or even to hide stands, etc.

Hey 1:6:12:18 Shooter! You are a professional photographer across multiple fields, and I was wondering about how you choose to edit your "toy photography". Meaning I edit on my iMac and then when I post to my phone, I usually have to make a few adjustments (usually exposure/brightness) because my computer is so much better and brighter. And then there is also the whole IG compression, etc. Do you edit for like it you're going to "Print" and then post whatever that result was? Do you edit with IG/Social Media or another medium in mind? Does this make sense? Thanks for any info

[@OneSixShooter]

Very good question! Yes, I do have my monitor calibrated for print, so I do have to edit a little - sometimes on the phone - for social posts. Generally, they need to be a little brighter, sometimes need a little more contrast as well.

[@vonnyrotten]

@@OneSixShooter thank you very much for the reply. Cant wait for your next photo and the next show🤘
