    Great tips! Personally for things like Tip 7, when intersecting another mask I like to use intersect with object instead of subject. Then I can paint exactly what I want where subject will often grab some unwanted areas that you have to brush out like it did with your bird nest. Using object for me makes it more precise and saves a potential step of getting rid of areas after.

    Why you draw a mask in the entire picture with the gradient and then intersect with luminosity range (to remove dark parts) instead of just simply selecting highlights with the luminosity range?

  • @thaticelandicguy

    @thaticelandicguy

    2 ай бұрын

    that's a great idea, never thought of it, just always done it like this. Would that make the transition (gradient) from the shadows to highlights as smooth? That's what I'm after. I don't want a sharp edge on the highlights but a gradient decline of the mask from the shadows. That's what really sells the effect imo.

    you can also use the "duplicate and invert", related to tip 7. So create a mask for foreground, make it darker, right click on it, duplicate and invert and you have another one that is affecting the background, where you can modify and make it brighter.

I'm having issues playing back the 10 bit 4k footage that I recorded on my computer. It is very choppy when I try to play it back. How do you view your 10 bit 4k Sony footage on your computer? I was hoping to be able to record in the highest 10 bit 4k quality but currently I can't play it without it being choppy so I really hope maybe you can help me.
