Great video Dave! I also find the Fade Brush Tool found under the Edit menu very useful in fine-tuning brushstrokes when dodging and burning. It only works on your last brush stroke, but it is very useful and lets you change the opacity of the last brush stroke for both Opacity and Flow. Works well with other tools such as Clone Stamp and Healing brush.
Very good Explanation / Introduction to the topic. Many thanks
Because I watch all your tutorials, I mostly use the Dodge and Burn as set up by the TK panel. Add in your excellent explanation of opacity and flow, I feel like my dodging and burning will be both more subtle and more effective. Thanks Dave!!!
Brilliant.Thank you.
An absolute brilliant tutorial in this field! (Ha,ha)
Thanks Dave, you are the best!!
It’s so lovely to understand everything you say Dave, as a Spanish speaker, for me this is crucial. I learnt english when I was at school, (kind of 40 years ago!) So, I truly appreciate your clarity. Pls, never forget that international people may also watch you! Lots of blessings for you and the family, Daniela, from Uruguay.
Thank you so much.
Fantastic vid, I like that you don't go too fast, explain things clearly and show keyboard shortcuts that you are using. Thanks
Thank you very much!💞👍
You are the master of dodging and burning, Dave. Changing the blend modes and using flow adjustments makes these tools so much more subtle and beautiful.
It really help me understand the difference between Flow and Opacity. With this tuto I will have more tool to use more often the dodge and burn technique
Thanks Dave for showing more options when it comes to dodging and burning. I stumbled across the fact that if you want to change opacity between 0 and 10% you can also just press 0 followed immediately by 1 for example to get 1% so no need to hold down the zero key
Thanks for the great video on dodging and burning Dave. Another tool I find useful is the fade tool found under the edit menu. This only affects your last brushstroke. It allows you to change the opacity of that final brushstroke for both opacity and flow. It also works with other tools, such as clone stamp, and the healing brush.
Hello Dave, I do a lot of dodge and burn using many of the techniques you presented on TK Friday but I never tried to lower - flow. This video demonstrated you can have better control of the d&b process by reducing flow. Thank you for this video.
Thanks Dave. You have provided some really good tips. I like the opacity with flow method myself as it seems you have more control.
Excellent video Dave. Learned alot...thank you for great videos
This is a freehand dodge and burn for a more creative dodging and burning. Take a look at my TK Friday videos where I demonstrate dodging and burning using luminosity masks to target highlights and shadows.
Thanks Dave
Another excellent video Dave. Your recent dodge/burn tutorials have really given us so many choices. Thank you!
Thanks Dave, this is an important and insightful lesson and I appreciate you sharing these dodge and burn techniques and explaining the importance of using the appropriate blend mode for each.
Hi Dave: Another very informative video. Thanks for creating and sharing. Keep well. . . Keith
Good teaching! Very useful technique!
Thanks!
Thank you for the Super Thanks Steve.
Basing off this technique, how could you then emulate the Shadows/Midtones/Highlights targeting control with PS's inbuilt Dodge and Burn tool? Blend If, maybe?
Hi Dave, I have been watching this video and the TK Friday one on Dodging & Burning. With the Wacom tablet in this video (Master the Art of Dodge and Burn in Photoshop: Brush Opacity and Flow Techniques) you set the Flow of the Brush to 1%. I have never seen you do this in the TK Friday videos (maybe I am wrong). Is there a reason for this?
I don't usually use this technique. I only work with changing opacity but this is another way of going about dodging and burning. If you don't like lifting your brush or un-clicking your mouse and painting again, then this is something you can try. I know some editors like this method better, feeling it gives them more control. The way you see me dodge and burn on TK Fridays is the method I prefer.
@@thejoyofeditingwithdavekelly Thank you!
I can hit the right side of the burn button on the TK8 panel and get a transparent layer like you are explaining. The left side gives me a 50% grey layer. When do I want a transparent layer , and when do I want a 50% grey layer?
Both layers will give you the same results. I like the 50% gray layer because it is easier to see the painting you have done on the 50% gray layer. Plus to erase or blend simply use a gray brush (change the brush opacity as needed). You will need to use the erasure tool on a transparent layer to do any modifications.
@@thejoyofeditingwithdavekelly Thanks
Would you mind clarifying why you used two different blend modes? Also, it appears you started with “Soft Light” for burning and “Overlay” for dodging then switched when you started your demonstration. I’ve struggled with dodging and burning…I’m going to try your technique. Thanks for a great informative video.
You can use either overlay or soft light for both dodging and burning. I just find I get better results with overlay for dodging and soft light for burning. But it does pay to experiment. Overlay is a bit stronger effect than soft light.
Dave, Any thoughts on a different brush style other than a round circle for D&B? Thank you.
I personally like the round soft brush.
Hi Dear Dave all of your video is great , But i want to now how can I make before/after action in my action Panel ?
Here is a LINK where you can download the Before/After action: drive.google.com/drive/u/1/folders/1EkUXWtC9rA6aWZv_Msc53CWx-KaXLlP0
@@thejoyofeditingwithdavekelly thank you so much sir
@@alirezabehzad5832 You're welcome.
Just hold Alt/Option and click the eye of the original layer (e.g., the background layer).
@@fotogfitzfoto412 I know my friend , I'm retoucher i want to do my job a little faster
