Adding Film Grain

I think what we're gonna do is glaringly local adjustments to this afternoon. We'll spend a bunch of time on local adjustments, but I should be able to get through the rest of these tools. This segment, this segments will get the rest of these tools saying it will leave local adjustments, which is much more intense until later this afternoon. Okay, go back to where you were Film grain. But let's use something where I want to use film grain. All right. You know where I want to use film grain on, Uh, she's I'd rather use it on the wedding. Just okay if I look at my five stars, All right, take a look at this. Image is, to me is kind of cool, So I like this image, but the shop with my leg you like, You like it like that would like, uh, not a lot of film grain, but I want to make it artistic. I'm gonna become an artist today. Oh, look out. I'm gonna come in artist today. All right? So let's make it artistic. Let's put some film grain in. I do really like this tool adding film grain T to go ...

back and look at film. My daughter she started photo 12 days ago. I missed her first day of school this this year because we're here and she heard Teacher goes and you're gonna be shooting film and opened up this wonderful world to you. And once you start shooting film, you'll never go back to anything else. And Little Desert photo instructor. Know that what her father and mother do for a living right to both Major major digital nerd. So I thought that was hilarious. So let's get Phil. Let's show film. Let's bring my digital Make it film like this tool really is cool. Film grain. You've got silver rich soft grain. Cubic tabular, harsh. This treats This tool actually treats adding grain to your image as if it were film film The way it treated grain, it was a little bit more grain in the shadows. Lessen the highlights. This formers and have algorithms add grain in this tool actually worked as if they were filmed like so. I think this is something you should play with. Find out which grain you like, play with it. Bring the slider bars up and down and see what you like. I like silver rich. We're gonna add some silver rich to this little boy, Assad. It so soft with my with my one f one lens. And now I'm gonna make it draining. Okay, We're gonna add the impact up in the granularity, and so you'll see it move. I'll have to do it a little bit more strength. So how much do you want to add? But you'll see that it may be it makes it a really nice soft look. Nice soft film like Look for those people that Oh, I want to shoot. Feel like. Well, there you go. It's back. Now you can take that super rich. Go too soft grain. You'll see the difference. Cuba Grain. Tabular and harsh. That's harsh, right? So do you like cubic? Better play with this guy I really like. How will it as you'll see that soft? It is non destructive. It is not that photo somewhere. You're just pushing it dramatically, and bam, it's not. It's adding to the workload and giving you something really subtle and nice to a really good job out of this. This tool, I think, was new. And nine. I think if it wasn't new and nine, it was end of end of eight that the film grain came out. Um, now they might have been innovate. Really nice toe play with. Yeah, I don't usually add film grain to my images ever. But I have heard even film purists say that capture ones. Film greatest. Pretty believable. Yeah, well, you don't need And third party manufacturer plug into food shops. I know a lot of people playing that extra, so So when hero, but capture one so expensive. It's so expensive. Okay, there's your plug in. That's gone right. You just saved. Who knows how much will, whatever that that third party plug in that ad during it. So you just save some money. I really I like this tool.

Yes, per some other reviews this started slow. What turned me off was the sales spiel for the class. It also came across as a sales schtick for C1, which is ok given the presenter. Stuck with it (well most of it, had to step away at times) and found it useful. I've had my eye on C1 for a LONG time. I'm not a pro, but would consider myself a pretty serious amateur. I document old mining and narrow gauge steam engines, general travel and now do our product photography (started a new company, so all $ goes to that rather than C1, which I would LOVE to own after seeing C9). Went with Aperture back in the day because of its cataloging and price. Back then C1 didn't have cataloging, though it DID have a 2 tier price structure...(Phase WHY did ya'll do away with this?????). Back to the class. After lunch on the first day I think they found their stride. Second day, especially Nino in the afternoon was quite good. That was probably my fav session. Seemed like most questions came from the in-studio "captive" audience. Expected more from the web? Constructive feedback. 1) Could have condensed things down quite a bit. I liked the more casual approach it took later on first day and on the second day. Dave especially seemed more at ease. 2) Ya'll (Dave especially) seemed to have his topics scripted out. Given the two day nature of this, would have been nice to give the attendees an idea of agenda/timeslots for topics up front. If an agenda/timeline was presented...I totally missed it. But then, I couldn't back up or rewind the live stream when I had to step away several times... if I paused it jumped to the realtime stream :-( 3) C Lve was pushing the "free trial download"...isn't there already a trial download from Phase? What value are ya'll offering in this area above what they offer? I found this annoying, if there's an extended trial period or something through ya'll cool. If not...I'm back to the annoying aspect of it. 4) Nino, get a Cintiq :-) If C1 doesn't have a profile for Cintiq (I'm going to download the trial from Phase) Phase you need to add support for it. 5) Dave's material he presented should be in vids on his website to help him expand his C1 market..fantastic selling tool there Dave....or even better....embedded in the product itself (ala SilverFast). Phase, you listening? 6) Nino, given he's coming from a different angle, eg no skin in selling C1?, he could do a 3-5 hour intensive vid(s) and I'd pay something for that. YMMV but I liked his approach and presentation. Was disappointed no C1 on his YouTube :-( Would I pay 99.00 for this class? Honestly, no. We use 3D graphics (ZBrush) and CAD (Rhino) in our company and have been learning those over the last year. To compare. There is another tutorial company whose name I shall not mention (no, it does not start with an 'L') that specializes in vid classes for those and other 3D products. They structure their offerings on a AFFORDABLE monthly/6mos/yearly all-you-can-eat fee structure. Much more consumer friendly, and quite honestly their videos are very focused and about 4-6 hours per course. I don't see myself paying 99.00 much less 129.00 for just one course like this (especially with the sales spiel content) when other companies have a more customer friendly consumption model. A value for the $ thing. In the end I did learn some things, and I'm glad I watched what I could of it. And yeah, I'm pretty sure after this review I just got taken off the free C1 license contention list...but I'm just being honest...Dave, I will be ordering some of the LCC pocket accessories if I ever get C1...those were cool IMHO. C1 has come quite a ways. When I can, I'll add it to our software arsenal.

I have been a user of Capture One for a couple of years but have strugled to get my head around the way to use this software as my chosen raw converter, I love the improved quality that Capture One gives me but always seem to end up scratching my head and going back to Lightroom to save time. I haven't been able to watch the full presentation due to time difference, (I am in the U.K), and other commitments but I have learnt so much in the time I have spent watching that I can finally see me waving goodbye to Lightroom in the very near future. The presenters are excellent teachers, they are funny, engaging and thanks guys you really have made a p[ositive difference to how I interact with Capture One software.
