Editing Style Help Request.

[SteveO]

Hi everyone , I wanted some help with my Editing style ..
I’ve seen ALOT of really amazing Photoshop artists using basically , Curves / Levels , Exposure , Hue & Saturation and a few regular layers for bloom and such.
They are using those adjustment layers for pretty much everything and it looks incredible.
I’d really appreciate if you can refer me to a course .. or even and person that edits by that style of work.


Like this artist does.

The thing about an individuals specific style is that there are far too many variables that they can use and it would be literally impossible for myself or other members to offer any help on these editing styles. It would just be guesswork. For me it would be hours of experimentation. The best thing for you to do would be to get into contact with the actual artist himself and ask questions or possibly get directions to tutorials or courses.

You can also piece together different techniques using YouTube Videos.

I’ve actually looked around , bought a few courses myself but this seemed like a specific style that I saw Benny Production using aswell as this artist, the same Adjusment layers

but this seemed like a specific style........using the same Adjusment layers.

I see you mentioning adjustment layers, and so you understand, every Photoshop composite ever made by any artist will have adjustment layers!! The problem is what type, how many, in what order, and most importantly, at what settings!! There are just too many variables at play for you to be able to copy another artists style exactly. You also have to remember that they just don't use the exact same settings on every composite. Each composite will require different settings in order to accomplish a "style"! Artistic styles are developed by these artists and they will use whatever Ps offers in order to stick close to their own style. What dictates the type and settings of adjustments is determined by the individual component images used within any given composition.

Unless it's being taught by the artist you wish to emulate, you will never find a course that can teach you how to copy a particular style. You need to concentrate on learning as much as possible about all related Ps techniques, experiment on your own until you develop your own sense of style. Pick one aspect of a composition, and try to figure out how it may have been done. Patience, Practice, and Perseverance!

I'm very familiar with BennyP.................if you have spent any time watching his videos................you would know what I mean by, no two composites are done the same way! Notice that a mainstay of his work is focused on dramatic lighting and shading and copious amounts of believable texturing combined with various non distracting fillers/filling that makes his imagery pop!!
