How to Create Dramatic Lighting in Photoshop

[@st19wht61]

THANK YOU SO MUCH for taking the time to share you knowledge and talent. I really appreciate it. Please do not get disheartened by some of the petty comments from people who are not contributing as you are, or who's egos have far out grown their talent. Thank you once again...

[@heikkiniiranen6035]

I appreciate that you explain well different functionalities of different tools in Photoshop instead of just making a video of using different tools without explaining why you used them and what such tools do. Thanks for teaching these things!

[@damorsatyam239]

I never seen this type of technique to use of dramatic shadow and lighting marvellous work man

[@loriendavy3248]

That final technique that you showed us, Kelvin -- the one where you converted all of your previously-created lighting effects into a Selection, and thence into a Layer Mask on a 2-stop over-exposed version of the original image -- blew my Ps-fledgling mind! I took notes, and will definitely be putting that technique to good use. In fact, I am going to guard it closely, as my own private Ps secret -- just between you and me ... and all the other people who benefited from this video. Thanx, again!

[@boxmedias]

The best tutorial about the Light Rays I ever saw! Thank you Kelvin

[@sadesign9575]

I love these tutorials that you do! You should do them more often, maybe more with editing as well

[@sergiojaua3632]

Hey! Thanks so much for this video!

[@MetalZlig]

Awesome stuff! I love the fact you use so many keyboard shortcuts :) I learnt a few new one with this video. Very interesting technique creating a mask with all your lighting effects, I had never thought of that before! Continue the great stuff!

[@Screeny42]

[@PENFOLD1962]

Looks amazing 👍😉👌

[@ВикаКоноплева-э9е]

thanks, i like your videos

[@brodqga]

cool efx, but so wrong light fall

[@agustinsanchezduran501]

Thank you Kelvin. What to me it is a bit strange is that we have the light beams you created but also the natural ones in the floor. Is it not it?

[@pranabsen7481]

very nice process of lightning...agree thet light direction is a problem but still i loved the technique u showed

[@lisamaier9984]

What a great tutorial. I love the look. Thank you so much!

[@rdmelendez]

Thank you! This was really helpful.

[@ayash96h]

thank u very much >>very helpful ...........How can I get files and pictures ... Link does not work ... Please help

[@RobertAWallace]

Thank you for sharing............It is appreciated.............I get the point made that the exercise did not need to take 24 Minutes, but that is a matter for each individual to consider. Much is dependent on what we already know (or more to the point- do not know) A lot of information (some reasonably advanced) has been crammed into the exercise, which may make it potentially confusing to new users..........Thank you for sharing

[@agambhasin]

Superb!!

[@TheBiggervern]

Thank you for this great technique

[@MegaFroso]

THANK YOU !

[@edata1147]

very good

[@DanThomas1161]

Amazing tutorial this. Subscribed.

[@summitbob213]

The tutorial was good for Mac users buta little difficult for PC users

[@vexb637]

Would it be the same basic concept if you were to draw a spotlight? Or a flashlight?

[@Melissa-hc9gs]

Thank you! That was so helpful!

[@joseluisnoarbe7976]

incredible

[@mikecee227]

I'm not trying to be knit picky but the way the light reflects from the real picture onto the floor seems to be a different perspective from the light beams. If you changed the way the light beams came in and crossed the beams, would that not work?

[@andcaru]

great!!

[@SherifEmad]

Thank youuu

[@youriiiboy]

Thank you so much

[@vankydude]

Very helpful

[@rigo.garcia]

Nice job! is it possible to do a video where you have to match image but it's in a different color space. Meaning Im trying to my match my untreated image to the same image but its been color treated, the whole image.

[@angelo209100]

wonder full work, love it

[@thephotographer9712]

wow...amazing tutorial...

[@despoinabratitsi1812]

Hi, thank you for the video. i wanted to ask you how did you adjust the image pf a smart object? when I do min eat won't let me. All the image adjustments appear grey

[@omoalayo8004]

Can u do this while image was on the background

[@loriendavy3248]

Thank you for that excellent tutorial, Kelvin! Two questions: Why did you convert the image to greyscale? Will all the techniques that you showed us still work for a color image?

[@oxidasic]

awesome

[@markwood9823]

Hey thanks for this amazing tutorial. You created some magic and it was really cool to see it come to life. Thanks for sharing your talents.

[@avmurugesh9735]

Brilliant

[@recomendei]

AMAZING TUTORIAL!

[@Explastizin]

Весьма не плохо. Результат и логика порадовали.

[@victoria_atmosphere9290]

Why would the light be beaming in from the wall rather than the window?

[@bennoroderick348]

You are very smart.

[@NordTimmy-kz3zv]

Nice Rundetårn

[@gpgpainting]

While the technique is solid the execution on this particular image is terrible. You have areas where the light is clearly coming in through the windows, that is where your light rays should be falling. There should only be one light flare/bright spot not one on each window. And perhaps you should have used noise instead of rendering clouds to make it appear there were dust particulates instead of smoke. Sorry man, it looks all wrong and unnatural to the eye.

[@Javaman92]

Thank you, that is exactly what I was thinking. Ya saved me keystrokes. ;-)

[@fw3381]

, thanks! Don't pay attention. To the critics the are always UNHAPPY PEOPLE

[@ObigdollyO]

great job just...the light on the ground under the window has a different direction than the light you made...🤔..like there are two suns

[@amiranayel3835]

PERFECT

[@akashadearg-due1435]

Thanks

[@shubhamdhoot3999]

Hello sir I tried using the gaussian blur but it actually doesny blur the edges of my selection at all. It just fades the selection still leaving the edges sharp. I am using cc in windows Is there any solution to it

[@andreaserdt5322]

Hey Kelvin, very good tutorial. How did you put in the background with Eiffe Tower?

[@GiangNguyen-yo3no]

thank you so much :))

[@terrykwong4350]

wonderful toturial

[@ruidoblanco]

why did you let open the folder window in the background?

[@gideonzirangey9436]

How do I get camera raw filter? Am using cs6 version

[@keremayan452]

Are you using Logitech G502?

[@richosea]

How do you change the photo back to color????

[@rkddesigners8887]

Nice work , can you send me architecture day effects to night effects editing videos in photoshop.....please sir..

[@koolert2001]

cant download the files for this tutorail

[@Terrorbrot]

"its actually really simple" makes a 24min video xD

[@LinhNguyen-mh7of]

he's too old for it . lol

[@Terrorbrot]

Why post your cheap, scummy advertisement on a 4 year old video?

[@dlcrdz00]

Can't access the source files...the download link isn't working

[@runninghead_media]

Not bad, if a little heavy-handed. Taught me about Post Crop Vignetting in the Camera Raw Filter, which was a life-saver. Thank you! Maybe consider changing the D on your intro ident as it looks kinda like an ampersand? ;)

[@SemageNamalSurendra]

HOW ITS KEY BOARD HITS APPEARS ON THE SCREEN? ANY SOFTWARE?

[@3aBap4uK]

Thanks for sharing. Really easy and fast. Can even make it an action (the basic/fundamental) part :-)

[@DavidDrejer]

That looks so much like the Round tower in Copenhagen. Dont know why i can see things like that sometimes Haha

[@cosmo0080]

maybe you could do tutorials with pse ?

[@tunasava9131]

helpful

[@hajeraa]

[@yaboysupadave]

whats wrong with u guys i think it looks awesome. where are your photoshop tutorials?

[@greenlemon9155]

well played youtube i searched "SDK env_projectedtexture multiple light dynamic" and i get this as first video

[@jo160138]

Please explain a little more slowly, especially at the time, which copies the light beams
