Turning a Bored Room into a Board Room in Photoshop

On this  video tutorial photographer Glyn Dewis looks at how to fake the look of a Grey Seamless Background in Photoshop.

Not in every case you can shot an image with a proper background – that doesn’t mean you can’t fake it Photoshop afterwards. In this video Dewis goes step by step through this process including cutting out the people in the image, replacing the background, adding a textured background and blending it (using overly) and adding some texture of wood for the floor.

To improve the image even further Dewis create a single layer of all the things that we did and after converting to smart object he does a little bit more editing in Camera RAW (including graduated filters). Finally he adds an effect using the free Nik collection from Google (download from here).

In the video Dewis mentions 3 other related posts which you can find here:
1. Lighting Set Up.
2. Before / After + Challenges.
3. Portraits.

In the past we have shown you how to shoot & light cooperate shoots with photographer Jay P. Morgan.
