Description from the creator

Hey, Creatives! In this video I'll show you how to paint light with Dodge and Burn in Adobe Photoshop. We'll be creating dodge and burn actions and use them to give our photo a clean 3D like pop to make it stand out!

I get asked a lot about my process for giving my photos the "POP" and what that looks like in my work flow. Hopefully this helps many of you along your journey to finding your look. Dodge and Burn doesn't have to be overly complicated, especially when you're accentuating what's already there in light direction and so on. At the end of the day we're creating art, here's one great tool for your arsenal if you're not using it already!

Looking forward to our next video, will be the 2K Q&A video! There's quite a bit to cover there, please bear with me as I put it all together!

Would love to see what you do with the image if posting online! Tag us so we can see :D
