Portrait post-production workflow with Ivan Weiss and Affinity Photo

[@ronallen2458]

Wow. The RAW file is composed so well. It already looks like a painting!

[@MrNovecento]

Troppo direi

[@basculetheteller]

One of the best portrait PP tutorials I've seen. Completely blown away by the increased 3-dimensionality by using colour grading! Thank you so much 🙂

[@RussellJonesDavies]

Ivan you do the best tutorials. I always learn so much watching your videos

[@fredwilsenack8634]

Really well done and informative.

[@geru2000]

It's nice to see artists such as yourself sharing your knowledge and technique. Thank you Ivan and Affinity you are both amazing.

[@elenatudey]

Very good! Interesting approach to retouching and colour grading. There are always different ways to achieve similar results; none is better than the other. Each is different and subjective. I like your workflow. Thank you for sharing!💕💓

[@richardheinsohn2624]

Thank You Ivan. I watched this live this morning and found it very informative as I find with many of your color grading videos. I shoot in RAW then develop with Affinity Photo V2.

[@trent797]

Great video, Ivan...I learned a bunch 😊

[@pros9469]

Fantastic tutorial, thank you.

[@stavrosmichalopoulos7286]

Thank you . We live in the Science Art era. SciArt or BotArt . Whatever you call it your art is great. Thank you.

[@reyglz6955]

Great tutorial, and thanks for sharing it!!

[@vinhsanity]

I've successfully not had to go into photoshop for over 1 year - now if Affinity can get their raw developer to the level of Capture One, then there's another editing software I can ditch!

[@tankicat]

Considering that they just got bought out by Canva, unfortunately, I wouldn't hold my breath for anything good.

[@zafizack]

Thank You Ivan.

[@UNDERDOG2533]

I used affinity photo to retouch. Good program for me 3 methods for smooth skin I liked it

[@xzenor]

That was great! Thanks! It was a little bit annoying that every tiny edit you do looks crappy, and then KZbin finally catches up and shows it how it should be and it looks great again. KZbin compression.. 😩 I learned some really cool tricks! Thank you very very much!

[@IvanWeiss-london]

It's a limitation of the platform. But the important thing is how it looks on your images

[@xzenor]

@@IvanWeiss-london obviously it's a limitation of KZbin. The fine adjustments on the skin for example just made it painfully visible. It was by no means meant to disrespect your video or your work.

[@jasoncy31]

Reminds me of a Vermeer!

[@leshall]

Nicely done tutorial and good shot. Personally I would have had the hair & make-up person tone down the blusher a bit before I started shooting. But I learned about the more 'obtuse' settings in AP. I like Affinity Photo a lot but I sometimes feel it is very technical in some ways and not very intuitive when it comes to certain adjustments. However Ivan revealed adroitly how to do it. I only wish he had told us, or had a small caption, what the various key commands are that he used. Some of the retouching didn't seem to show much difference, but I am putting that down to KZbin's poor quality rather than any obsessive nit-picking on his part. Although wearing an outfit that matched the model's is excessive empathy ;)

[@IvanWeiss-london]

Keyboard shortcuts are mostly ones I have assigned through the user interface.

[@leshall]

And not the same as stock. Gotcha. @@IvanWeiss-london

[@esmealonso9113]

Hi, I have a doubt. Images with gradients do not look well defined in PDF documents, although they look perfect in AffinityPhoto. How can I export PDF so that these perfect images can be seen? thank you

[@GTSongwriter]

After being acquired, did y’all stop answering questions in the iPad question area? I can’t seem to find a way to rotate an image before importing it into Affinity designer…when I open the image.. yes navigator can rotate it, you can two finger rotate, but it exports it in the original rotation. If you rotate the layer, the canvas doesn’t follow! I’m so frustrating! The updated iPad layout also makes third party tutorials useless!

لماذا لاتضيفون الكتابه بالعربيه

[@ваыкацнананаводонвебо]

Terlalu memaksa

[@polystirenman1]

Great tutorial. Shame i've lost all of the joy of learning any of Affinity software since the acquisition. It is most certainly going towards subscription model or Canva will just kill it and use it on their platform.

[@Affinity]

We have pledged in no uncertain terms that this will not be happening, read about it here: affin.co/pledges

@@Affinity You can pledge all you want. It's not in your hands now. You sold the business to them, they will decide. I do not trust Affinity products any more. Sorry.

[@RushAlvarado]

Hellooo

[@ralfpassing]

It's all a matter of taste. In my opinion a lot of work to make a nice naturell portrait artificial and worse

[@IvanWeiss-london]

I don't want guitar lessons

[@000CloudStrife]

A lot of bad advice here. I was right when I said in the livestream this won’t help people. It should be retitled to personal creative work flow.

[@IvanWeiss-london]

😁😁😁

[@000CloudStrife]

@@IvanWeiss-london first few minutes. You don’t sharpen in raw. You break the pixels which you can clearly see still broken even when you lessened the sharpness. You have better ways of making the image look sharper. I can keep going.

[@IvanWeiss-london]

@@000CloudStrife I do sharpen in RAW. You just watched me do it. I understand the reasons why some people advise not doing it, and I have found that those reasons are not relevant to my work. If they are important to you, then by all means follow the other advice.

[@000CloudStrife]

@@IvanWeiss-london and so without customers being informed of better they will be ok with mediocre work. So yes it works for you. I believe in the customer base a lot more than you. Affinity keeps making bad choices all around.

[@IvanWeiss-london]

@@000CloudStrife I'm quite sure there are other people on KZbin advising different methods.

N offence but Lightroom does better than this ..
