How To Add REALISTIC Highlights in Photoshop!

[@Flamsleburger]

You have no idea how long I (And probably everyone else) have been waiting for a new tutorial from you Benny! Thanks a ton!

[@crypticsound8D]

[@raymondumo]

You couldn't convince me this wasn't made in a 3D software. Amazing work, Benny!

[@leoribeirop]

Benny doing tutorials should be considered an EVENT… even though I have more than 10 years of experience in Photoshop I still learn a lot with you, thank you for that dude!!!

[@DarkCornersTV]

I literally found the last tutorial on KZbin for the first time last week and now you drop a new one, perfect timing lol (last one was really helpful)

[@disrespecc9678]

oh my god it’s the clickbait man

[@Itsanasmusic]

HOLY SHIT dude that part where you explained the difference between lightness and exposure was so important for me to learn THANK YOU!

[@StuHub]

I'm so glad you updated this tutorial! I always love watching you adding highlights to your edits, but never fully understood the process, can't wait to give it a go myself!

[@BoogieBoyz]

I literally have been using the old method from ur first video, and now with the exposure over the hue saturation layer, my thumbnails i work on for clients are gonna get 1000% better. Thank you Bennt

[@DynastyUK]

One of the best ways to observe light bounce is to shine a torch off things and notice how your entire surrounding actually affects your highlights. For photographers Grass can be a pain in the arse since you will get (like on a green screen) a very slight hue shift of green. A good way to add highlights also is to use the exposure in Camera RAW WITH the tint/white balance. So yes this IS "realistic" for a studio situation, but not realistic for a composite situation.

[@dsadasgbdh]

dude i have been awaiting for 8 years for that movie!

[@allezgamingforever]

0:30 Hue and Saturation 0:44 Flow 15% 3:47 Exposure 5:30 /exposure 6:00 Color 6:52 Enhance the effect 9:46 Levels 10:22 glow edges (solid color-Linear dodge)

[@weekendmidical]

Keep up the good work! It's crazy that you're actually willingly doing another tutorial tho. Nice one!

[@amongdae]

he's probably running out of ideas due to the whole ai thing lmfao

[@Chuso_Skever]

I would love to see a tutorial in quite the opposite, how to flatten things out like removing harsh lights and shadows

[@unlimited2379]

I agree... like removing the original lights/shadows from subjects so you have more flexibility when painting your own.

[@adampicki]

I think you really can't do much. I know for example with colors = you have green grass with a little bit of highlights and you want to make it blue from dusty planet. You can make it gray and then colorize it again (hue/saturation) with blue, that way the highlights are a little bit less visible. But for strong shadows and highlights only levels will work but it will create bad effect

[@Jordanwd]

Honestly if you dropped your own course or even workshops of techniques weekly, the value you provide would help so many people!

[@TheRedactedFiles.]

A week ago I was literally thinking “man I wish Benny would do another lighting tutorial” and here it is! Thanks for reading my mind Benny!

[@mejohnbinoy8140]

Maybe the one above heard your prayers. Have a great day.

[@EPICMAN_3D]

Yes finally another Tutorial!

[@diesaaierinchristus]

Benny when I saw this Tutorial I was literally crying, filled with joy in my heart, please don't forget about the followers, all of us want to learn, teach us brother Ben, you are the best for real God bless you

[@thisisme6395]

If you attentively watched his videos you would already know these tricks, here and there he talked and showed all about these. I am very very very glad you enlightened us again with your tutorials, you are the one that I can easily understand. There were parts I couldn't catch up when I watched the videos, now I understand everything. Thanks a lot, Benny!

[@Ksante.moments]

This guy doesn't get enough recognition it's actually saddening

[@LeonardOnYouTube]

OOOOOOOOOOH HOW LONG I'VE BEEN WAITING FOR THIS OMG!!!! THANK YOUUUUUUU

[@SebbyClemens]

So stoked you made this man! Already have learned a lot by just watching your regular stuff and paying attention to your layers but this was super helpful! I know you’re not keen on tutorials but I (and everyone else I’m sure) really appreciate them and would 100% love more of them!🤟🏼

[@hexismessy1283]

Hi benny! I been watching for a while now, almost 3 years? I love your videos, can't wait to finish this one too!

[@tiagomedeirosdesigner8810]

You are incredible, my friend. I'm from Brazil and I follow you here very often. Congratulations on the work. I'm your fan!!!

[@messiglazer-i8x]

These tutorials are just what I need right now

[@Flying-Pictures]

Not sure if I am a fan of the mustache. btw. I have learned so much about lighting just from watching this channel over the past couple of years, but a Tutorial on it is still great.(I know tutorials are a rarity here)

[@vectordexter5393]

that lighten and Exposure difference was the best takeaway, thanks Benny

[@YudhaPongah]

AKH❤ THIS TUTORIAL IS TOO GOOD ESPECIALLY LIGHTEN AND EXPOSURE!! THANKS BENNY

[@Vintagesonic1]

Thank you Benny, for this tutorial. This one is so much better than your old one. You go into more detail and I think the image of Freddy you used to showcase the process is much better than the one you used in your last tutorial, as Freddy is very roundish, making it so there's more places for light to scatter, making it more clear to the viewer, when demonstrating where the light is supposed to go.

[@jaycemcdougan3896]

Thanks so much for these tutorials! It's much more effective than watching your speed arts at .25 speed and trying to figure it out that way 😄

[@bogxd]

Can't stop noticing there you go and here you go now that you've mentioned it xd. Great tutorial!

[@ChristopherMR18]

the best editor showing us his talent 👌🏼👌🏼

[@Mango19_Productions]

THIS IS SOOO NICE. LOVE YOUR CONTENT. KEEP GOING MAN

[@NicholasAHart]

I wish there was someone out there like Benny for Affinity Photo. I love how well Benny accomplishes beautiful artwork. I can't afford Photoshop so I have Affinity.

[@gabrielleao019]

Benny is the goat of manipulation, it's impossible to not agree with this, good work Benny!

[@乙-c2j]

Thank you very much for this tutorial, Benny, it's a pleasure to learn from you.

[@TheUselessTurtle]

benny who hates doing tutorials is doing a tutorial? this is unexpected

[@Game.UI.Design.Tutorials]

Gteat tutorial and editing. And I do want to point out that "practice" is not enough. Understanding how light works and how objects react and receive light, one needs to learn those principles. And then, yes, practice and it wont be hard anymore. But first, learn! You, Benny, have a solid understanding and knowledge of those principles and I like how you present it. Thanks!

[@elijahglonchak2078]

*Hey Benny, Helpful tip here:* Instead of using a hard brush and later later erasing in order not to spill over into the shadows, have you ever tried selected out the area you'd like to paint with the lasso or marquee tool and re-selecting the brush and starting to paint? It makes it so much easier and you don't have to go back in and erase the areas that you didn't mean to paint into!

[@Subaru2_1]

known u for 1 year, best teacher on youtube. a big thank.

[@ragibrahman9594]

benny is doing the very thing he hated the most " san.... i mean making tutorials” yeah tutorials that's what i was gonna say.

[@NNNedlog]

Benny what would I do without you? I've learnt so much from your channel. I can't thank you enough, these videos are gems

[@ant6nionyc]

[@SKDurgesh]

I don't know about my drawings but i have pulled my hair many times at the working on lighting and shadow. it sucks but here i have got some quick guidence and i applying to projects. result is now satisfactory. Thanks.

[@Real_MisterSir]

For so long I had no idea you could split the "blend if" marker... man, so much headache it could've saved me in the past with my wonky workarounds lol. Good stuff!

[@commentfax]

U don't know hw much I need this..Thank You Benny

[@CarlosGabriel-jd1tc]

I saw this video before but I didn´t understand, and now i saw it again -with more skills- and it got it. Thanks for amazing content buddy!

[@hassaandzigns]

[@jellegeerts9218]

[@Nicolas-Mau]

[@ForexTradingLions]

I never comment, but from time to time Benny, you should make some of these tutorials, you do so much cool stuff, and I always want to learn how you do it:)

[@TheBoofhead]

I wasnt sure if this was the tutorial I wanted, then half way through I discovered it was the tutorial I needed. Thank you so much

[@jrkishoreram]

[@btlnono_]

i honestly thought you had given up on this channel to become a full time roblox youtuber at this point. glad to see you’re still alive here

[@LughtMon]

You are the reason why I like to do stuff in Photoshop.

[@O.LEO.N]

THE BEST lightning tutorial on KZbin for Photoshop.

[@jabsoficiaI]

this way, using exposure is way better than using the brightness from hue/saturation, thank you so much

[@framesbyflo]

Benny the Goat finally teaching us again

[@Petrioart]

Wow!! Before I used inverse curve technique to brighten the highlights, but this technique makes a lot more sense to me! Thank you so much!!

[@CammyAlwaysWins]

Superb tutorial! I’ll def try re-creating it in Affinity Photo! Thanks Benny!

[@minhanhfox4183]

The “Here you go” guy 😂

[@mikkinoble77]

Thanks Benny. You're getting better with the tutorials, even though we know you don't enjoy them

[@AnakinSkywalker-tq6ch]

When Benny drops it's an occasion 🎉

[@VisualistAyush07]

Everything is temporary but Here you go is permanent

[@benspear]

Impressed how you achieve that in one mask - that really requires knowing your brushing and knowing the process! I'd be forever knocking into bits of soft mask and screwing it up 😂 I look forward to giving this a go, thanks Bennnyyyy! 🤜

[@keyamitra4634]

Want more such tutorials from you! Pleaseeeeee❤

[@Protossyy]

[@GraphicSanctuary]

This video really helped a lot in understanding the highlights and also I didn't know about this use of exposure yet.

[@-ASHRAF-]

" This project file is in description " best favor ever. ❤

[@Teraclon]

Amazing stuff! Could you make one for how to work with shadows as well, to complete the set? My shadows always look either flat or unrealistic

[@Jerry-s7r2x]

I’ve just found your channel a few day. Love your tutorials. Very easy to follow & inspirative 👏

[@PicsEditingZone]

you explained really well, great job, the only thing is make sure you fill everything with the highlight and not forget the Microphone for the pink side, like benny forgets about it, so always double check the draft once it done. :) thank you so much!

[@mabastwrya2790]

That was really terrific and neccessary, Great technique to do, thanks benny❤

[@rAtentg]
