Joey L.Behind - The Scenes The Complete Tutorial Photoshop DVD
ISO | 1.46 gb

Sessions with Joey L DVD Tutorial, including a break-down of the DVD content and how I feel it applies to my photographic directions and how it might be useful to other people.

Back in the fall of 2007 I was spending my days in a Tokyo dorm room playing around with Photoshop, and decided it was time to pick up some sort of tutorial DVD. Yes, you can learn and be inspired without needing to buy these things, but I break my brain trying to figure out stuff like applying Altair Optistruct optimization strategies to fatigued composite structures with barley a manual to work with. So with Photoshop I was looking for a way to relax and get a grounding in photo processing, so I bought the JoeyL Photoshop Tutorial DVD by photographer Joey Lawrence. It was well received by some, ridiculed by others, and I found it to be a good buy. However, I’m able to pull a great deal of knowledge from anything, due to my training in figuring out ball-busting simulation programs like Nastran. However, for my purposes, what was lacking from the Photoshop Tutorial DVD was the connection between lighting and shot setup and Photoshop processing. So when Mr. Lawrence released his Sessions with JoeyL DVD, I watched the trailer, and then decided to drop 200 USD on the DVD.

First some background on me

Here’s my situation. I’ve mainly focused on learning photography and lighting during the last two years. This was mainly in my spare time while finishing my Doctor of Science degree at ETH Zurich I read Strobist in between experiments, and sometimes sketched out lighting diagrams at the SPIE Smart Materials conferences. Since starting a normal job I’ve had time to develop a lighting and processing look that I like, which fits with what I see in my head. To this end I finished with taking only self-portraits and started organizing model shoots. The last piece is nearly in place and that is making a strong link between vision and reality. Taking the image in my head and easily making it a tangible medium people can hold in their hands or see for themselves. I sketch out shoot ideas, design lighting concepts, network, and do my own Photoshop. Foe me it’s all part of the process of Arience, the integration of Art and Science in my life. In my view, everyone is a poet and an engineer. I attended a Strobist seminar and picked up the Sessions DVD to get a better perspective on how other photographers work, see the process of concept to photo in other people.
