The Art and Technique of Digital Color Correction
How to\" books are a dime a dozen. What makes this book special is that it is also a \"Why\" book. Hullfish sits down with world-class colorists and records not only what they do but why they do it. That's where the magic lies.
\"How\" is the question to ask if you want to become a craftsman. \"Why\" is the question that creates artists. I bought the first edition for \"How\" and came away with a lot of \"Why.\" This edition has lots more of both, with material from several additional world class colorists.
If you want an inside look into the art and craft of the professional colorist there's no better way to do it in book form. Whether you're learning to be a colorist or just want to understand what really happens when you decide something can be \"fixed in post,\" you need to read this book. -Art Adams, cinematographer/educator, ProVideoCoalition.com. This book just keeps getting better with each new edition. Steve Hullfish's approach is designed to teach techniques that transfer to a wide range of popular and accessible color correction tools. The intent is to demystify the process, so readers can learn the concepts and apply them, regardless of whether the software has sliders, wheels or curves. Best of all, Hullfish features extensive tips and tricks from some of the premier colorists in the country, so you can learn from the masters. If you only purchase one book on color correction, this is the essential guide to include in your library. -Oliver Peters, Oliver Peters Peters Post Production Services, LLC A terrific and much-needed book for anybody serious about digital color correction. Starting with the basics, it helps the reader work through a series of specific, well-illustrated examples, covering all the major software applications, and supports the text with insightful comments from prominent working colorists. All in all, it's essential reading for anyone who wants to improve their skills in this rapidly changing field. -Steve Cohen, editor, Emmy and ACE Eddie winner, author of Avid Agility.

Art Beyond the Lens
Vintage-looking, dream-like textures can open up a whole new world in your photography. However, there is much, much more to working with textures than simply merging them with an image via Photoshop. In this gorgeous new guide from texture guru Sarah Gardner, you'll learn everything there is to know about how to maximize the potential of these exciting tools. In addition to hundreds of beautiful example images, this book is also packed with practical advice on what makes a good texture, and how and when to use them. How an image is initially captured and processed has a significant impact on the effect a texture will have, so you'll also learn what to consider when composing and shooting (rather than simply relying on post-processing) and how to use lighting and background considerations effectively for later work with textures. Workshop notes and a supplemental website will help you put Sarah's techniques into practice immediately. Beautiful enough to sit on your coffee table yet practical enough to store near your computer, this book will show you everything you need to know to get that coveted vintage-feel in your images, whether you're a casual family snapper or a seasoned professional.
