That was incredible ๐thanks ๐๐ป
nice
Hi Phlearn! Thanks for the tutorial! Lock down here hiding from the Covid….. and have been practicing my PS skills. Two questions, why do you have your come stamp flow on 20%, and some times mine leaves stuttering track marks for instance I think if the brush setting is too hard it skips along. Will changing my flow and smoothing fix this?
or use blender

I am interested in knowing what materials you use for the setbox? Is it foam board or something else?
Love this tutorial!
Awesome video!! Thank you
I wish we saw how you combined the images, e.g. the image with the green floor and the image with the white floor.
Hi, phlearn, any tips how to get the cardboard you have? The color is less reflective as mine
I enjoyed this because I am always eager to learn. If I was doing the photographs for a company that makes the purse, I could see where these techniques would be useful. I am shooting for Ebay sales however and need to be able to get the shots as clean as I can (i.e. squared up in the lens, lit properly). I do about 60-70% vertical straight down and about 30 to 40% stand mounted angled down slightly. I do not want to spend more than 5 minutes to grab my photos for a single item. I would like to learn getting super detailed macro shots and be able to pull out to get full shots of the products. Nice work though.
Pardon my English, Iโm not a native speaker. I run a retail online shop, with varieties of products, and I shoot and edit every picture of each product. If Iโm gonna follow the steps on this video, I think Iโll spend most of my time just to shoot and edit. Are these steps inevitable in product photography for every individual photo (and, yes, I have to spend most of my time doing it)? Or, is there any other way to process it especially when working on so many, many products? Like perhaps a format for the photo session and editing process for consistency?
If you learn to light, learn to set dress and learn photography. You wouldn't need Photoshop as much.
Nice ๐๐พ subscribed
that was lovely
I can't make a clean line between the two papers.. how do you get it to have the graphic look???
What is the material of the set up, FDF board is he saying?
I got very excited watching this video and paid/subscribed for the course. Unfortunately, they don't provide a thorough information about each topic. I learned a few things about product photography but I was hoping for more. They could definitely cover more! I'm a bit disappointed ๐
that was awesome!
Thats too much time wasted on one product
Thank you so much for this tutorial ๐๐ค๐๐
Awesome photography! I feel lucky today to see the beauty of photography. It was really great inspirational post
IRON MAN ่ต้ซ~
Iโm trying to take better photos of my own products soil trying to learn.
Gosh, what an ugly purse. It didn't get any better with this extensive work, and frankly it was not needed.
Fascinating video…
what materials are they using for the box? MDF board that has been panted over or pre colored mdf board?
Using the new Content Scale in Photoshop 2019, I'd simply crop the image and then use the Conteny scale as a copy of the background and and paste it behind the source image (so you don't stretch the content inside.

Phlearn is the worst name. Rural Juror ish
Thanks!
The background is perfection and I learned so much about set construction. Thank you!!
I'd be interested to know how/why he chose those 3 colors as a backdrop for the bag.
They look perfect, I just can't put my finger on why…
Didn't know Nick Kroll knew so much about photography
