A Perfect Truth: Reverse Photshop Processing + Video Tutorials?

January 09, 2009

There are many touch-up videos on youtube, but not so many in depth tutorials. I've been getting a lot of requests, suggestions and questions so I've been thinking. Perhaps it's about time I do some tutorials. Now with youtube's better quality, it's possible to upload high-quality/high-def widescreen videos. This would work great for tutorials videos.

Drop me a comment, if you'd like to see some tutorials or even have some tutorial suggestions let me know. I'd be happy to start them.

This is my most recent video, it's a reverse process of photographic touchup. Perhaps going against the grain of my other videos. I have reversed the process, I feel this clearly shows a person for how the really appear. Stripping back all the work to reveal the face as it was, as it is.

More videos to follow soon. I hope this gives an slight insight into the stages photos are taken through to create a 'sellable' face. Let me know what you think, and if you'd like tutorials. Check out some of the related content below for more cool stuff.

Hey Guys,

@Conaboy

I would slow down the video a bit, and have the important areas in realtime.

@Torey

I'm glad you like them. I've got my videos on my channel http://ie.youtube.com/user/YoussefS

Definitely do the the video tutorials. Anything you deem most interesting to do a tutorial of, will certainly be useful.

TommyFerrell01/10/2009

Not to nitpick, but the word 'Photoshop' in the title of the post "A Perfect Truth: Reverse Photshop Processing + Video Tutorials?" is misspelled.

Just thought i'd give a helping hand. Aside from that, the content is great.
