Editing the Porsche GT3 using one exposure (Car Photography Tutorial)

[@edwins.9609]

Thanks for the video! Don’t feel rushed either, the attention to detail is what we are here for!

[@duncanxander5694]

@Victor Dominick thanks so much for your reply. I found the site thru google and im trying it out now. Looks like it's gonna take a while so I will reply here later when my account password hopefully is recovered.

[@duncanxander5694]

@Victor Dominick It did the trick and I finally got access to my account again. I am so happy! Thank you so much, you really help me out :D

[@victordominick673]

@Duncan Xander happy to help :D

[@okay814]

Love how you're not using vague phrases like "to make things pop" and just say "to increase the contrast" when adjusting settings

[@DamianPlisko]

okay thanks man!

[@mikoajdabrowski4538]

its amazing how much you did only with color adjustments im really impressed waiting for next vid.

00:01 iPhone potato-image shot at night 28:11 professional Porsche Advertisement with a production cost of 50k$ the hell did you do that?

[@samsonkipp]

btw instant sub 👍🏻

[@DamianPlisko]

Samson Kipp haha thanks so much!!

[@AzNightmare]

*Maybe start at **0:04**. The grainy picture in the very beginning wasn't the original, it was just the original with some grain effect added onto it. The actual original shot already looked like a Porsche Advertisement... He made it better, but not off of an iPhone potato shot. lol. The picture right from the beginning already looks too perfect like a 3D render for concept artwork, rather than a real photo. But none the less, the techniques are still relevant.*

[@WatchHobbyist]

Mind. Blown. Very impressive... looking forward to watching more of your videos

[@DamianPlisko]

thanks so much

[@M4KH4I]

I recommend using the auto geometry settings in Lightroom to adjust the photo so everything is straight and then crop it, saves a lot of time, Amazing video though 🙏🏻

[@jlsc4125]

It is so easy to straighten the lines in lightroom, so much easier than photoshop

[@scopher911]

Great tutorial. Thank you.

[@FKfilmphotography]

The original photo has so much detail in the shadows and highlights.

Would love to see a video where u show us the proces from taking a photo to editing it (would be awesome if u used a basic camera or even your phone to shoot so everyone can try it at home)

Good Job! Keep on doing those tutorials. Really detailed and well explained. Cheers from Germany.

[@DamianPlisko]

thank you!

[@colinleder5683]

really impressed, I consider myself as a decent car photographer but I only know basic thing in edits, and edits make like 50% of the final results

[@DamianPlisko]

Colin Leder thanks so much!

[@RichThul]

Thank you for posting this edit. Was great to see how you got from the original image to the finished image. Doubt that you need any tips but a handy one that I use a lot is Shift/option/command/E to make a stamped layer of all the visible layers below. Like at the end when you combined the layers to make the final Camara Raw edits. Thanks again, great job.

[@DamianPlisko]

Rich Thul thanks for tue tip!!

[@dash3dot]

Absolutely fantastic job with the photo Damian, it shows that You have a lot of experience with this, love Your taste in color and overall processing. Thank You VERY much for sharing the knowledge with us. Eager to see more!

[@DamianPlisko]

dash3dot thanks so much for the kind comments :)

[@alexstefanphoto]

Great video and photography! Also, in case you didn't know about this shortcut , you don't need to select all layers and duplicate them in order to create a flattened image of all layers. You could just select the top layer and press Ctrl+Shift+Alt+E on Windows or Cmd+Shift+Option+E on Mac.

[@DamianPlisko]

thanks for the tip!

[@adrianconete1864]

I'm not even shooting car photography, I shoot portraits and fashion, but this is such a great tutorial! Saved it to watch later, who knows when this will be useful. Thank you for sharing this amazing lesson! :)

[@DamianPlisko]

Adrian Conete thanks for the kind words!

[@BrodyLando]

Liked the video! I am trying to get into some photography and would like to do some cars etc. I wouldn't mind seeing in your videos where you attach the original photo so people could follow along like me. :) Great video though!

[@DamianPlisko]

will keep this mind!

[@Phazedclips]

Loved seeing this type of tutorial as car photography is where I started along with nature and I never knew the techniques and how people did all of this and now that I am full time doing video I dont get to shoot cars much anymore. Now I want to go out and do a shoot so I can work on some of this stuff! Thanks!

[@MrDox90]

Wow, it's amazing how you made a completely different image at the end. It's a completely different ambiance. It takes some real creativity to come up with little details, like the black front, or darker glass. Also never knew a car looks better when not reflecting lights. It's meant to be shiny. But it does look better. So many nice touches. Great work.

Hi Damian. Little tip. When you want to merge all the layer, just click on the top layer and press Control + Shift + Alt + E. It will just merge all visible layers into new layer :)

Damian, in last merging step, you don't need to duplicate all layers, just press cmd alt shift E (ctrl shift alt E on pc), it will merge down all visible layers into new one!

Very good tutorial and gave me lots of good ideas for couple of my own car photos. Especially with the color corrections. One thing that got me wondering a bit was the straightening process. Why you didn't use Lightroom's "transform" menu so you didn't have to recreate empty spaces?

[@DamianPlisko]

Glad you enjoyed it, thanks! I used photoshop for those things because its faster and more powerful

Cool video, nice to see the build up. I can appreciate you did the end first and then recorded it but it would have been nice to see you organically, how long did the original edit take? Also at the end you took all the layers and flattened them, why not just create a stamp visible layer? Look forward to seeing more videos and Merry Christmas.

[@DamianPlisko]

ktmrcbiker will do so :)

[@AzNightmare]

*So I checked out this guy's IG. Definitely very skilled in what he does. Although my only comment is that every photo in there looks like a render for a brochure or advertisement... it's too clean and loses the essence of reality. Every shot makes me wonder if these cars are even photographed or digitally created. But it's still definitely beautiful. Just different style. I guess the best way to say it is, if you took a photo of a woman, you can put a little bit of make up on, or cake her whole face with make up so she almost looks fake, but either way, she's still beautiful, just different style. Thanks for sharing your talent!*

[@DamianPlisko]

AzNightmare thanks for your feedback:) You’re correct that is my style, it’s much more commercial vs editorial and although i can do both, I have more fun doing this style :)
