"The Anatomy of a Composite Portrait"

This program will follow Curtis' workflow of creative composite photos beginning with a simple portrait shot on gray seamless paper. He will go through his global adjustments in Lightroom, sourcing of other composite elements and will culminate with the construction of a composite portrait using layer masks, blending modes and retouching techniques in Photoshop.
