My First Greenberg
December 29th, 2008 | Published in People & Portraits
This is my first attempt to make a photo in the style of Jill Greenberg Studio (The Manipulator) www.manipulator.com with whom I will be taking an internship in Beverly Hills, LA, Summer 2009.
In my eagerness to learn new photoshop techniques, filters, actions, etc., I used Aimee’s passport photo from my stock as the base image… so there was no proper lighting setup for this image whatsoever and the original was never intended for this purpose. Now I’ve put all the time and effort into it, I really wish I’d waited and taken a shot with this plan in mind!
Techniques applied include: Processing as HDR, LucisArt Plugin, Softening skin with NeatImage, brightening the eyes, painting locally with light & shadow, selective sharpening, fake/cgi background
