Calvinize: Signature Techniques of Photoshop Artist Calvin Hollywood (Paperback)

Calvin Hollywood is a photo artist from Heidelberg, Germany who combines photography and image editing in a most imaginative way. His personal style is characterized by the hyper sharpness, high contrasts, and almost painted look of his photos (http://www.calvinhollywood-blog.com/portfolio/). Digital editing plays an important role in his photographic work, but Hollywood emphasizes getting the shot right from the start. He considers lighting very important, but the surroundings and the model's styling are also key and he always tries to factor textures and details into the shot.

This photo collection contains more than 100 of Calvin Hollywood's most spectacular pictures as well as his thoughts on topics such as Photoshop, plug-ins, outfits, lighting, planning, time management, and more.
 
The book also comes with over four hours of video tutorials created and produced by Video2Brain, creators of the popular Learn By Video series. In the videos, Hollywood walks viewers step-by-step through his signature techniques and shows readers exactly how he used them to create many of the images featured in the book.

Calvin Hollywood是來自德國海德堡的攝影藝術家，他以最具想像力的方式結合攝影和圖像編輯。他的個人風格以超高清、高對比度和幾乎繪畫般的外觀為特點。數字編輯在他的攝影作品中扮演著重要角色，但Hollywood強調從一開始就要拍攝到正確的畫面。他認為燈光非常重要，但周圍環境和模特的造型也是關鍵，他總是試圖將紋理和細節納入拍攝中。

這本攝影集包含了Calvin Hollywood超過100張最壯觀的照片，以及他對Photoshop、插件、服裝、燈光、計劃、時間管理等主題的思考。

此外，這本書還附帶了由Video2Brain製作的超過四小時的視頻教程，Video2Brain是知名的Learn By Video系列的創作者。在這些視頻中，Hollywood逐步引導觀眾了解他的招牌技巧，並展示讀者他如何使用這些技巧創造了書中展示的許多圖像。
