Hi all,

Finally, here’s part II of episode 3. The making of “?”. Again, sorry for the delay.

Let me know what you think.

Hey folks,

Here is another video. I know I’ve promised you part II of the making of “?” and it will come. I just squeezed in this one first.

It’s about exposure. Some of you may think that making a video about exposure seems unnecessary. I don’t agree. This video is all about the concept called Expose to the right. If you haven’t heard of it or would like to know more about it and how it can increase the technical quality of you images then have a look.

I hope it all makes sense. Please let me know what you think. If you have ideas on what you’d like me to record or talk about feel free to send me an e-mail or add you thoughts to the comments section.

Thanks for stopping by.

Hey everone,

Here you go. Here’s part 1 of episode 3 in the “The making of ” series. As before part 1 covers the work in Lightroom. The previous videos can be found here.

Hope you enjoy it and I’m very interested in your feedback. Thanks for stopping by and commenting.

Btw, part 2 has to wait a couple of weeks. This is because my graphics card on my PC broke down yesterday!! Arghh. Not good. HP is picking up my PC this afternoon and they estimate I’ll get it back after 10 working days. Well, I’ve heard that before and it usually ends up being a lot longer.

We’ll see. Anyway. Be happy and go and make pictures.

Thanks.

Here’s the second and last video of the second episode in the “The making of” series. I call this one The making of The end of the world. Part one can be found here.

The purpose of these videos is to share my ideas on image capture and image editing. I’m hoping to give you yet another photographer’s perspective on how to approach an image and what to keep in mind.

I was aiming at something like 15 minutes and I spend like an hour last night cutting it down but I only got down to 21 minutes. Well, maybe that’s the best I can do?
Personally I like videos that are a little longer. You don’t have to view the entire video all at once.

Again, I hope you like it and please let me know what you think of both the image and the video.

Making changes as I go along is not easy so I may end up changing the approach in the future.

The next episode can be expected at end of Jan. Christmas is just around the corner and 2010 starts with a week of skiing.

I’ll keep blogging and uploading image to Flickr though.

Here’s the first video of two of the second episode in the “The making of” series. I call this one The making of The end of the world.

The purpose of these videos is to share my ideas on image capture and image editing. I’m hoping to give you yet another photographer’s perspective on how to approach an image and what to keep in mind.

This first video is a little too long and maybe too little action is going on. I’ll try to speed things up in the videos that will follow. Also the volume is a little too low on this one.

I hope you like it and please, please, please, let me know how I can make these better and more informative in future episodes.

Btw, part II can be found here.

Hi,

I’ve now uploaded the first release of a new series called “The making of”. In this series I’ll explain how I created an image including a back-story and the technicques used in Lightroom and Photoshop. I also try and explain the thought process and why I did the things I did…

Please come back with feedback and or comments. I hope that in the future I’ll be able to post vidcasts instead of pdf-files since writing the pdf’s takes quite a bit of time.

Enjoy and I hope you like it.

Be happy.
