RetouchPRO LIVE presenter & topic requests

[Doug Nelson]

You know, I had one who was going to do a show, I've been working with him on it for weeks, and he just changed his mind a few days ago. Very frustrating, but I can't force anyone. Public speaking is a big hurdle for someone who toils away in an quiet room all day.

Got any names of pro car retouchers?

Hello, writing from Sydney, Australia. Unfortunately, skin damage/inconsistent pigmentation is a big problem down-under. At 100%, skin usually looks like it's covered in freckles. Wondering if a future webinar might address an issue like this?

We can't access the youtube rentals (geo-blocked), so if this has been addressed before I can't reference it. I've tuned into a few sessions so far, and thanks! Invaluable. Love what you're doing for the community.

Tony Hoffer and Spencer Boerup would be great to do a wedding workflow & retouching live session. Spencer claims that his workflow to process an entire wedding is only 4 hours. http://photographerworkflow.com/

More product retouches would be awesome. Glenn Honiball would be great for this... www.retouch.ca

Creative Landscape Retouching would be awesome similar to the works of Chris Crisman

It would be awesome to see a whole session on white balance/color correction in mixed lighting. Us wedding photographers are faced with that situation all the time. Flash, tungsten, florescent and sunlight all in the same photo, yea

I have two requests. #1, make this topic sticky so it can be easily found when someone has a request or suggestion.

#2 - transparent effects with Steve Caplan. Things like marbles, glass, bottles, etc. I mentioned it to Steve and he said it's a difficult subject but that he would be interested in it.

It would be great to see more photo composition work, along with advanced masking from someone like amy dresser or carrie beene. dave hill or jill greenberg would be good too

Hi Doug,
is there any more Carrie Beene tutorials planned?

[Doug Nelson]

Carrie's been very busy (success and all that). But there are still a couple of shows I haven't yet put up for rental. I'll add them soon.

I can't promise anything, but I gots to know who you're interested in.

As far as topics go, someone already mentioned product retouching, are there other areas? HDR? Panoramas? 3D? Photo restoration? I thought I'd get a least a few votes for photo-art.

Since the first book I got about retouching was her first book about the subject, I would like to see a live show with Katrin Eismann. Especially about her advanced masking techniques and selections in PS. I still have her book next to my Mac laptop when I'm retouching anything.

would love to see some compositing tutorials

would be great to have a beauty tutorial which focuses on retouching of hair ie dodge and burning/cloning hair for fashion/beauty images

hi doug,
any more car or jewelry tutorials in the pipeline

[Doug Nelson]

Jewelry is definite, though probably in the new year. Car is more problematic, as ticket sales last time were disappointing.
