Bless you! : )

This setup and video is so simple but so valuable! Thank you for sharing

These videos are really well done. I’ve been a commercial product retoucher in NYC since 1999, and have been shooting since 2007. Always learn something new from your videos! Thanks for posting them. Great job.

One thing I love from your videos is the confidence on your talking. You make me feel anyone can do it.

Thank-you Enigma Vapes! Always a pleasure, and yes mostly I try and do workarounds live on location, but the applied mask was a frame I added in later. Still searching for a solution to visualize masks like this during a live tether, would be helpful as I do a lot of trickery like this! Take care, friend.

Bro love your videos. Keep them coming!! Can't wait for the next one.

Hi Dustin! Great video! Just have one question for you! You took that photo with the third flash aimed at the background to get a silhouette of the products. In post production how do you use that picture as a mask, is there any way to convert the picture to be a mask? I am guessing you used that picture to create the background perfectly. It would be nice to see how you did it! Thank you for your answer! Keep up the good work! Cheers!

Hi! Yes, I simply create a high contrast frame. Then select the contents of the product (in that frame) with a selection tool like magic wand. Cheers

very helpful, would u please guide about if we capture in dark room what are the camera settings and do we use light reflector and diffuser in dark setting as well?

Great!

Karama Omar thanks eh!

Hey Justin, I love these videos, and trying to replicate these shots. You've mentioned in a few videos creating a high contrast frame (Boomified!) to eventually use as a mask to cutout the product from the background. But I can't find where you explain that exact process. How do you take a frame of black and white pixels that is a layer in photoshop, and turn that into a mask? Thanks!

@workphlo

4 жыл бұрын

Hi Bart, in our Photographing Wine w/ Plexiglass episode we teach the mask method. Usually you just crank the contrast maximum in RAW until the product is truly black and the bg truly white. Then you can even just import that frame and magic wand "select" the shape of the item. And it's Dustin* :)

What basic equipment do you suggest buying (esp. for product photography) when you’re new? I have a Nikon D3400 with a 18-55 mm lens. I also have a basic tripod from Amazon, I think.

your video is great but your video angle makes me don't know if the lights are placed in front or behind the product, hopefully there will be a top-down video angle so people watching the video can visualize

really helpful tutorial sir thanks a million , adding u on facebook to be friends

Awesome content as always! I would like to start practicing product photography on a low budget. Since this video is quite old, I was thinking to but a pair of Godox TT600 which cost the same as the Yongnuo YN560IV but have HSS as a plus. What do you think, is it a good buy ? Keep up the good work !!!!

@workphlo

6 жыл бұрын

Thank you for your kind words! That sounds like an awesome benefit with HSS if the flash is half decent

I will be appreciated if you can provide this tutorial post processing. Cause am following your video tutorials and am lacking to enhance the label, due to dull product label my photography is not top class.

Awesome content man. What focal length do you typically shoot at?

@workphlo

7 жыл бұрын

I usually keep around 50-90mm for a standard shot, though I often bring the camera in as close as possible (closest focusing distance is at my widest 18mm) to get a heroic towering distortion effect, which I used here. Cheers!

So how did you generate the green background? We watch these videos for a bit of 'know how' as you put it but you miss this vital part. Your videos are great as they are things we can do at home with limited kit, but so frustrating as you assume we are as skilled as PS as yourself. Keep them coming. Thanks

Nige T Hey there, the green bg was a digital solid, a hue eyedropped from the products. I'll try and do a more in depth workphlo for masks, all I did here was use the mask I showed to exempt the bottle from the solid bg. A lot of tutorials exist for how to use masks, my Wine on Clear Plexiglass may be of assistance. Cheers!

it would be better if you could show the editing on system part.
