SECRETS of Professional CGI CAR PHOTOGRAPHY: Step-by-Step Guide

[@ThePhotographyRebuttal]

Howdy Peeps. I'm super rusty at making this video and it took me FOREVER to make. But I hope it's worth it. I'll be online for the PREMIERE to chat with you - looking forward and I'll see you back here!!

[@edwhyyou]

Hey Micheal, this is Edmond. The photographer you met last year by the restaurant in the neighborhood when you walked the dog. Glad to see you made another new video! Please keep sharing knowledge with people here. It’s very helpful. Cheers!

[@varunjoel3281]

Hi Michael, I know its been some time since you posted this video. Just wanted to know if a consultation call with you was still on offer. Would love to pick your brains!

[@ThePhotographyRebuttal]

@@varunjoel3281 Hi Varun. I regularly consult with y clients. Please email me [e-mail] to discuss further. Thank you.

[@chakk0]

Uff you know what, sometimes KZbin feels like you've seen everything and then... You find a jewel like this video ❤❤

[@ThePhotographyRebuttal]

Thanks and that's part of my mission - to make videos that don't exist yet.

[@chakk0]

@@ThePhotographyRebuttal I have to say, you achieved that to 100% 🫡

[@JamesBrett2008]

almost instantly I was like "im pausing this, making a coffee, paying total attention and playing this at 1.0 speed" I never play anything at 1.0 speed anymore. Thank you sir.

[@ThePhotographyRebuttal]

Perfect!

[@eoslove2022]

This video and others from Rebuttal are so DIFFERENT for what I can find on KZbin. The content that s found here exists nowhere else on this platform. This content exposes the real world of cutting edge creatives in the photography ad space in a way we've never seen before on KZbin.

[@ThePhotographyRebuttal]

Thank you so much for recognising exactly what I wanted this channel to represent from the get go!

[@SK-mc7uw]

I love your channel! It's such a goldmine of industry knowledge that you really don't get anywhere else. It really opens your eyes from being an Instagram car photographer to an actual car photographer. Much appreciation for these videos!

[@ThePhotographyRebuttal]

Glad you enjoy it! I hope to provide some context to KZbin photography which explains the name of my channel. Thank you for watching.

[@foodmoodpictures2543]

Awesome! so many experience and knowledge given away...i would take me years to figure all of these things out if i dont find your videos

[@thecarcheckerschweiz]

Just came across you again. Finally new stuff to learn🎉😊

[@ThePhotographyRebuttal]

Thanks for coming back!

[@MSVISUALS]

Welcome back! 🎉 Can't wait to see it! 🥳🎉

[@robertoh5120]

[@ThePhotographyRebuttal]

Thank you very much! Already working on my next video

Great Video! I think you’ve found a nice gap in content. I’m always excited to see high end professionals join this platform for this reason. Thank You for sharing

[@ThePhotographyRebuttal]

[@ThePhotographyRebuttal]

Any time! Feels good to be back!

[@ՓՓՓ]

Would love to see more about this automated(?) setup @ 18:20. Seems incredibly useful!

[@metternich05]

Wow you are back, and with such a great content. Good to see you pivoted to CGI. Soon we all need to incorporate AI as well.

[@ThePhotographyRebuttal]

Actually I got into CGI years ago so this video is long overdue!

[@kinyip181]

Welcome back and thanks for sharing! Hope we don’t have to wait till 2026 to see your next video 😅

[@ThePhotographyRebuttal]

LOL already working on the next one!

[@samohyesss]

You're not kidding. This is the best content on the subject right now! Completely understand that it can't go longer and deeper into details but the amount of information in this general overview is absolutely insightful! Looking forward to more.

[@ThePhotographyRebuttal]

Much appreciated!

[@paultrunfull3324]

Nice one, and thank you

[@ThePhotographyRebuttal]

Thank you too

[@christophe.lemarchand]

Great to see you are back in the game !

[@baokhanhvu6603]

I’m shooting cars too, automotive lifestyle with real car, real location and my pain was trying to match the image quality with international photographer. But it seems impossible without CGI. This video helps alot, thanks so much for sharing buddy.

[@PLongno]

Looking forward to this!

[@ThePhotographyRebuttal]

How was it? I'm a bit rusty 😁

[@matepancel8300]

Wow! New video after more than 2 years of absence! I'm keen to learn some new stuff from you 😍

[@ThePhotographyRebuttal]

[@AussieMoses]

Another great video! Good to see you again. Please keep it up!

[@ThePhotographyRebuttal]

Thanks, will do!

[@jppj4067]

I've worked on few big car commercials, photography and video, and to me this is the best and accurate ''tutorial/bts/guide'' I've ever seen by far...

[@ThePhotographyRebuttal]

Wow, thanks!

[@RenderRevolution]

@ThePhotographyRebuttal Thanks for the awesome tutorial man, sharing your years of experience to us......... Priceless. Keep up the grind and best wishs, cannot thank you enough for such high quality content. So glad I found your channel man l you have earned a subscriber and a like. More likes when I watch all the rest. Take care and stay safe bro

[@leedodge4227]

Thanks Michael, good and necessary info, to continue in this genre, you will need CGI skills.

[@ThePhotographyRebuttal]

I think so, yes! But only for advertising photography.

[@masaytaka]

Thank you so much for this knowledge and behind-the-scenes! I’m wondering how AI is going to impact this process… perhaps a video idea 😜

[@ThePhotographyRebuttal]

Good question! Let's see how AI develops before I make any conclusions.

[@85liez35]

idk, this video just showed up on my feed and heard him saying it been a while not posting stuffs and I checked his last video. 2 YEARS AGO. No wonder why I haven't heard of this guy, lol

[@ThePhotographyRebuttal]

Ha ha - a while means 2 years

[@benjaminperez4887]

Welcome back! Always appreciate the incredible information and insight you provide.Keep up the amazing work.

[@ThePhotographyRebuttal]

Much appreciated! Feels good to be back and reconnect with everyone!

[@Larrious28]

Thank you for making such an informative video! What’s the name of the automatic tripod head for the dome shots?

[@deepspiritmedia_Official]

Been taking on partial and full cgi projects lately. Definitely a game changer since it also doesn't create any barrier to imagination. Already used real subject vs cg environment and full cgi and it's been great. Of course I have a few basics on cgi myself also from keyshot like you shown but I let the cg artist do he's thing and also the retoucher. I feel that a team made of people that are good in their part will make for a better outcome rather than trying to do it all myself. Just curious which motorized head you using for the domes? Keep up the videos it's been awhile

[@webcatcher360]

Hello Sir just want to ask what software they used in 5:17? pls advice thanks

[@ThePhotographyRebuttal]

That's KEYSHOT. 1 of the easier 3D softwares out there

[@webcatcher360]

@@ThePhotographyRebuttal thanks Sir noted on that.

[@webcatcher360]

Thanks for sharing

[@jlad5960]

10:49 these are 100% due to low shutter speeds man. I promise you. You aren’t being attacked by demons, you can sleep well.

[@ThePhotographyRebuttal]

Can't find the context regarding shutter speed.

[@marioboss79]

The problem with CGI is that the end result is very artificial and has nothing to do with photography. An example is the official wallpapers from Ferrari, which look worse than, for example, the models in the Gran Turismo game. Nothing can replace real photos. Unfortunately, companies want to save money on everything and soon Midjourney will be making all the materials :/

[@zambodii]

@thephotographyrebuttal Glad youre back! ive been binge watching your videos, im a car photographer and have some questions that didnt get answered in your car photography video. Is there somewhere i couldd contact you and ask you directly? thanks fo ryour time love your videos they really help out @
