Culling and shot selection are super important to Nino but in this situation, that selection is premade. Working for publications and others often give them the lion's share of the decision making. So here Nino talks about what needs to be done on the image selected.
Working in Capture One to get his RAW image ready for Photoshop exporting, Nino works on white balance, exposure, highlight and shadow recovery, and skin tone uniformity.
With the image imported into Photoshop Nino tackles skin cleanup right off the bat. Starting with a spot healing tool.
Dodging and burning helps minimize the effects of depth in various skin textures. Focusing on these micro effects helps polish the overall image without reshaping the image completely or losing textures. Toward the end of the clip, you will see Nino use dodge and burn uniquely.
