The Absolute Power of Blend If with Blake Rudis

OK. Its been a wile since I took this one, but must say its been the one I use all the time in my work. You want to take a course, let that be this one. Hands down the best technique to learn to improve your workflow and the creative use of Photoshop. I can't say enough about it.

Fantastic workshop! Well structured, easy to follow, applicable for all types of photography. Loved it!

Wow! Great course!! Lots of good information about using Blend if. Blake has a great sense of humor and he makes the course fun and interesting while making sure that you learn something that you can use. The course was created in 2018. In 2021, this information is still very valid and helpful and I definitely recommend it.

Photoshop has so many features, it's hard to wrap your head around it. But Blake Rudis explains things so well, and with such a delightful sense of humor, one cannot help but learn something terrific. The "Blend If" function is powerful and useful for so many photographs. I will most likely watch the lessons over and over again as I experiment with my own work.

Excellent tutorial.

I knew about the existence of this tool but never understand it enough to make use of it. Blake made it really simple, quick, and easy to get a grasp of Blend If and how it could be applied to an editing workflow. It's a quick and straightforward class, for a Photoshop tool that is hardly ever talked about but could be really helpful in a couple of situations. I guess it all comes to what you edit. If you are interested in buying this class, I suggest you to take a look at the lessons' titles and seeing if they relate to your work.

Blake is easy to follow and I enjoyed the shorter lessons that had a lot of repetition of the feature (Blend If) in different scenarios. Thanks!

Concise, useful, fun to watch and full of new tricks and time savers. Also some fairy magic.

This is a game changer, especially if you're already into advanced retouching and Photoshop. I've been using Photoshop 20 years and while I was aware of Blend If I hadn't really used it as part of my workflow. That just changed big time. This really will change the way you adjust images and adds so much flexibility to non-destructively edit images, then adjust everything later if needed without having to replace or recreate a thing. Great course and instructor, I highly recommend this course. Amazing!

Enjoyed it - good teacher

Worth its weight in gold. He is personable and easy to understand. Multiple viewings ahead for me until it becomes second nature. This is a Nirvana tool.

Mind blown!! New favorite instructor, hands down! Gonna watch this one over multiple times as well.

Short, conscise, and reptitious quick course to help work wonders on your image editing! Can't wait to try it and come back with a photo to show off. Even with not enough PS knowledge to know where he is clicking to get these options, I got it. He is fast..quickly does it w/o showing how or where so be sure to know a little PS first before this class...definitely not for a beginner....he assumes you're at this level and if you are you are going to love this secret.

I am from the UK.I subscribe to Phlearn,and i thought Aaron Nace had covered Blend If.This is THE BEST tutorial on Blend If.Long enough to be interesting and not too long to lose concentration.It may be short BUT you will learn everything about Blend If.BRILLIANT

Usable, fun, straight forward, precise, fun, reasoned, complete, hands on, fun, expansive and did I mention fun?

For those with a little understanding of layers this is an excellent class, helped me to really understand what PS has to offer. thanks!

Super helpful! Another powerful technique made easy. Blake is super laid back and throws wonderful bits of comedy in with the class!

Absolutely enjoyed this class. Easy to understand while very entertaining. It's great to watch Blake as he so obviously loves what he does.

I absolutely love Blake's teaching style and highly recommend this course as well as his other one on luminosity. I'm new to these topics but really want to push my education in photoshop and this was a great place to start! Blake makes this very easy to understand and use practically in your daily workflow.

Very interesting but, how do you create the magenta starting point!

*mind blown* I knew blend-if was there and I was already using it for sky replacements but this takes it to a whole new level. The noise reduction, texture adding, color grading... genius. I can't wait to play around with the options! Thank you, Blake!

This class is definitely a must have for any photographer who is serious about their editing. Blake lays things out in an easy to understand way, and demonstrates how these tools are important to incorporate into your workflow.

Geat class - I enjoyed learning more about blend if - an area that I have not used a great deal. I would make on suggestion though, please upload the work files that you are editing - I learn more by doing than just watching.

This was a great course and really opened my eyes to an essential part of Photoshop that I had been neglecting. Blake is an excellent teacher. His love of Photoshop is evident in his teaching style and really gets you excited to learn.

I watched this live and have now purchased it. "Blend if" seemed like simple concept, but Blake opened up a whole world of possibilities.
