Affinity Photo - Tutorial for Beginners in 12 MINUTES! [ COMPLETE ]

[@bai]

Dear viewer, after a careful review, we confirm *this video is good for Affinity Photo 2 as well* 👌 Stay in touch, we will release an updated video soon!! 😊

[@planetguam8475]

Is this an official Affinity tutorial? I watched the ones that came with the program "help" and your tutorial is far better than any of them. They seriously need to hire you if they didn't already.

[@bai]

No, it is not official. It is the result of all your pieces of feedback during time :)

[@hearthemusic2475]

Aboustly the best KZbin for Affinity. I have watched many videos in the last year and purchased a few books. This has a lot of information and easy to understand. I also like the fact that you don't have to watch someone trying to be funny or cute. This is something you will keep and watch over and over.

[@bai]

Thank you so much

[@Curios_Cat]

I really can't stress this enough. I LOVE YOUR VOICE AND TUTORIALS!!!!!!!!!!!!! ❤❤

[@12thDecember]

What a great tutorial! I just got the Affinity Photo app, and I don't think there's a better tutorial out there to get started. I have experience with a few graphics programs and so a lot of these tools look familiar, but the smooth sequence of the all-encompassing presentation is absolutely incredible. Thank you!

[@bai]

You're very welcome!

[@KathleenRenninger]

Wow! This was so straightforward, and covered so many things in 15 minutes, things that I had been completely missing. I wish that this had been on the official list of Affinity tutorials from the company. Thank you !!!

[@bai]

Glad it was helpful!

This was a great tutorial. As a recently unemployed designer due to this whole convos thing, I no longer have access to the Adobe suite that was being supplied by my former place of employment. Instead of paying for my own monthly subscription, I decided to find Adobe alternatives which lead me to the Affinity suite. I thought I was just going to be able to dive right into Photo with my Photoshop knowledge and be creating with no issues. Wrong. 🤣 It's does a few things different and I was lost. I'm glad I found this tutorial. I see that this is truly a powerful Photoshop alternative and I'm looking forward to learning more about it and the rest of the suite. I've just stubbed you.

[@bai]

Thank you very much!! All we can say is the best of luck to you!!

[@dianecrispino8726]

I have had Affinity Photo for well over a year now and have not produced anything worth while. After watching your video I confident that I can pull it off. You made it east to understand. Thanks

[@bai]

Great to hear!

[@mhess427]

I'm really excited to try this because photography is a hobby and not something I make money from so I can't justify paying a monthly subscription for Photoshop.

An absolutely excellent tutorial. This helped me get re-started on Affinity after I took a long break from editing. Thank you!

[@bai]

Thank you for leaving your comment!!

[@nickyshaw9516]

Loved watching this, every time I sit down to use the software, I give up and go back to my old software as the terminology I’m not used to, I’m used to the aOld Serif Software, thank you, I might actually use it now

[@bai]

You can do it!!

[@LeeRaldar]

This software just keeps getting better the more I use it.

[@jorgecasalotti1945]

Many thanks!!! I've just bought my licence, and this tuto is really useful to start the fun. Clear, simple, cover the starting steps. Gracias!!!

[@bai]

Glad it helped!

[@KruMark]

It is the best alternatives to Adobe Photoshop indeed!

[@bai]

Of course!!

[@jisoopark3978]

This is amazing, I'm trying to get into photo editing but had no idea how to use this program. You helped a lot! Thank you.

[@bai]

Thank you very much :D

[@LavenderRain24]

This is really helpful. I just bought the program today and SO looking forward to being able to use it for my art. I would get Adobe but just cannot afford it since its not a one time purchase like Affinity is. And to be honest, its just as good! Affinity PLEASE make an ANIMATION program next! Perhaps call it "Affinity Animate" or something!

[@dbkfrogkaty1]

Thanks you for this tutorial. I was having trouble trying to understand what this software looks like and how it works. Most "official" guides don't go into the kind of detail you present. I plan on getting this software when I get a new Mac laptop.

[@bai]

Awesome, great to hear!!

Looking forward to the updated tutorial for the Affinity Photo V2 version. Thanks. This at least got me familiar with the tools.

[@bai]

Coming soon! :3

[@sailorfini]

I've been looking to upgrade my 10+ year-old Elements 6 for the longest time and this an amazing tutorial pretty much the same thing as Photoshop, but you're not destroying your wallet and it has all the same features.

[@bai]

Exactly :)

[@Ianuarius]

0:55 If you want to creat new file with the Clipboard dimensions like in Photoshop, you have to select File > New From Clipboard. 4:15 You can also zoom with Space+Ctrl like in Photoshop with one difference, you HAVE TO press Space first. 5:35 The Develop Persona is unfortunately very limited compared to Photoshop. No per-channel HSL dials, and many of the corrections, like Saturation and Vibrance, are capped really tiny amounts. 11:08 Rectangular Marquee Tool (and others) don't have the Photoshop functionality, where you can position the selection by holding Space as you draw it. Makes every operation with it take twice as long.

[@bai]

Thank you very much for this useful feedback, we will review them and include them in the next version!!

Yes you can do that on Affinity as well.

[@morgancalvi6675]

Thank you very much. Maybe Adobe will get the hint.

[@bai]

Good choice!

[@fotolookconde]

Just bought Affinity!

[@dkat1108]

2 things jump out to me as soon as I worked with this Affinity Photo there is no "revert" just a really missed action there also the "save as" is missing to save as a jpg or any other file you want to save as. You have to export if you want to save as a jpg its really extra steps and annoying. This software needs work to get it up to speed with simple tasks like revert and save as. Such simple things like this have me wondering if I should buy it?

[@keithtauber4153]

There seems to be many holes and lack luster things as compared to Photoshop. I think Photoshop is clearly better than this program.

[@rosemariefederle9728]

Thank you for your help

[@bai]

No problem :D

[@EndlessTravels]

Great stuff Any moves for Affinity Publisher 2.0? I saw your 2 of 3 of their products and loving it

[@bai]

We have planned to release a version for Affinity Photo 2. As for Affinity Publisher, we are not sure if it will get enough appeal.

[@randolph50]

Thank you so much! I needed to know how to rotate an image to level the horizon and I only had to watch 10 minutes of this video to find out how. But seriously, I spent way more than that on the Affinity help files and still didn't find it. :-)

[@bai]

Try to catch our video chapters, these save a lot of time and you won't feel obliged to watch the whole video!

[@gtbeautyandleisure3215]

Great tutorial! Learned so much. Please tell me the text to speech platform where you got the voice from. I think it is high quality and perfect for tutorials. Thanks.

In terms of color editing. Can you turn individual colors saturation up or down like in lightroom?

Planning to buy Affinity Photo 2. Can we make things like crests, coats of arms, currency designs, etc., in it? Asking as I am a content creator for role-playing gaming companies and wanted to try something a little less expensive than the annual PS license.

[@MOHAMEDHASSAN-fk9jv]

Fantastic ...

Yes, absolutely

Nice work.Please, is there any way to get smooth edges after you use Erase Flood Tool. Everything look like stairs in the edges after using this tools. Is there any anti aliasing option in Affinity? Thank you

[@hazelmclister-brewer3786]

Just a huge THANK YOU

[@accentontheoff]

Hi, superb tutorial, thanks! Probably a beginner question, but would I, in your opinion, need a dedicated photo editor like, say, Lightroom, or Darktable / Raw Therapee, if I have Affinity Photo. Not talking about the file management part or the batch stuff, or anything else, just the actual image editing / tweaking part.

[@bai]

We think that Affinity Photo is really complete to do image editing.

Does it have a magic cut out tool like in Bizart where it automatically cuts around an object?

[@janado85]

Can you paint in this app like procreate?

[@chariots8x230]

I have a question. In the Liquify Persona, is there some way I can remove the grid that shows over the photo? The grid makes it harder for me to see when I’m using the liquify tools so I wish I could make it invisible.

[@SachinBalan_PB]

Nice. But does it have X-Rite Colorchecker Passport and DNG Profile Manager support.

[@John-mz8rj]

Does it handle memory better than photoshop, for 3d work, having two programs open at the same.
