Digital Negatives
These group workshops cover how to make a digital negative with curves. This is for beginners or those interested in using an adjustment curve for alternative photographic process negatives. I will walk you through each step needed to make a digital negative.
Using this method you can make negatives for Cyanotype, VanDyke Brown, Gum Bichromate, Platinum/Palladium, and potentially other processes. Both of these workshops are meant for printing digital negatives using an inkjet printer on transparency material such as Pictorico, Fixxons, or Artista (links and more info here).
There are two versions of this workshop using different platforms:
Photoshop: For this workshop, I will provide a Photoshop file with layers to be used as a template. I designed this system to be easily used and to provide some flexibility to make adjustments. During the live session, I will go through each step for using the template in Adobe Photoshop.
Lightroom: This workshop covers a workflow that I have recently developed using Lightroom Classic. I will provide curves as Lightroom presets that can be added in Adobe Lightroom Classic.
