BEAUTY RETOUCHING TECHNIQUES
IN PHOTOSHOP

A DVD BY GRY GARNESS

A visual-practical DVD guide to professional beauty and portrait retouching using flexible solutions for a variety of photo retouching jobs, from flawless magazine covers to reality portrait retouching.

This is an educational tool aimed at intermediate to advanced Photoshop users. It's effectively a 13 hour one-to-one with Gry Garness, an experienced trainer and London-based retoucher, demonstrating graphics tablet based professional retouching through a great variety of images, with models and non-models. It's adaptable to all types of retouching - not just favouring one particular style. All methods are based on Gry's vast practical knowledge within photography, hair & make-up as well as retouching. The tips she offers are both visual and technical, giving you an insight into a retoucher's thinking during the work process. All the techniques are editable and are perfect for commissioned retouching where the brief often changes by the hour.

The 54 tutorials are presented on a 2-disk set DVD-rom. The Flash movie resolution is 1280 x 832 pixels. The tutorials are Photoshop CS5 updated but relevant for all CS versions. They are straightforward and conversational in tone, but with advanced content and crystal clear instructions. A set of Tool Presets and a limited set of training images are supplied.

    iPAD

    We are currently working on a solution for the iPad, but cannot yet give a timeline. Please be patient and give us the time we need to develop this.

    In The Meantime

    Meanwhile, it's fully possible to read the CS3 and CS4 e-books on an iPad, using the Good Reader app, or Apple's own iBooks. However the interactive CS5 book can not be used on the iPad because of the iOS4's own limitations on interactive content. It will display no content where there is interactivity.

    We are in no way affiliated with Good Reader and you would have to buy it through the App Store.
