Transform Stock Photos Into Cinematic Scenes in Photoshop
In this Photoshop photo manipulation tutorial I'll show you how to create a dramatic bird of prey scene from scratch using stock images — step by step, from building the composite to the final color grade. 📁 All stock images and resources — including LUT presets and Camera Raw settings — are included in the free download link: https://gumroad.com/checkout?product=stdhjx&quantity=1&price=0&referrer=youtubeYou'll learn how to build a multi-layered scene using sky, background, foreground and ledge images blended with the gradient tool, how to extract subjects using the Quick Selection and Magic Wand tools, and two techniques to fix chromatic aberration using Camera Raw and Hue/Saturation.
Then we go deep into color grading and color matching — one of the most important skills in photo compositing. I'll show you two methods to match colors between elements: one using Curves and Levels on individual channels, and one using adjustment layers — so you can choose whichever fits your workflow and Photoshop version.
To finish, we'll add atmospheric light glows and run the final image through Camera Raw using a custom preset to lock in the cinematic color tone.
This tutorial works on any Photoshop version, though CS6 or later is recommended for Color Lookup access.
