First used dodging and burning in film photography class where we had to manually produce our photographs on photo paper. You would take your 35mm film and use the enlarger to expose onto photo sensitive paper in the dark room. During this exposing period you would time out how long it took to create a properly exposed image onto your paper. You could burn in the image longer in some areas versus 'dodging' or simply blocking certain other parts of the image to expose as long. You used another piece of paper or object, like a circle cutout, or whatever you could use to do this. Ansel Adams used this in his photographs. The zone system wasn't just about capturing the dynamic range of light to dark in his photographs, this technique also applied to when exposing the images onto paper. He could lighten some areas and darken others; balancing the image and attracting the eye to other areas of the photo.

So Ive followed this to the dot and Ive recorded it as an action, I find when I use the action the dodge especially is extremely sharp regardless of how much blur I use. Any suggestion on how to improve this?

I love your guides.
However 50% grey is not 128. 0 counts in the 1st 128 levels, so 50% grey is 127. 127 plus level 0 is 128 levels. 127 plus 127 is 255. And yes I know this almost 2yo.

The video itself is good, but ALL of your videos are soooo verbose, repeating the same stuff over and over again, it's just crazy. You can squeeze all the info into 4 mins

This one was one more difficult to follow or to remember the concepts/steps! Perhaps need to discover by self than trying to remember all that was done in this video!

Unfortunately, the original looks much better. The porcelain skin effect's just terrible and ruin all beautiful photography.
