How I re-created classic negative and other films as presets.

So what’s the secret to making digital film looks and great color and tone in presets? That’s something I’ve spent a lot of time with and today I’m going to share some tips for making better edits whether you’re making your own presets or using tools like Filmist or Natural HDR to make it easy, then tweaking them to your taste.

But today we are looking at the Classic Negative profile, a digital version of Sueropia 200 that’s popular on Fuji cameras. I made this so we can use it on any camera.

The Classic Negative look we talked about in today’s video is available for free.

You can Download the free pack on the filmist page.
It now inludes Classic Neg and 8 other film profiles.

Glad you're here.

I'm from WA State USA and started studying photography in 97. I started work as a pro (using that word loosely because I sucked) using film at age 16. I learned fast but was not as easy to find training then. Sometimes I beat my head against the wall until I figured stuff out.

As digital dawned I went all in and got to study with masters like Ken Whitmire. In 09 I founded the Pro Photo Show podcast. I started promoting tone-focused editing. When Lightroom arrived, I started developing tools to make editing and workflow better.

20 years of study and photography around the country earned me a Master of Photography (M.Photog) from PPA. I got to see my workshops and tools featured in publications across the industry. Once I even won the prestigious HotOne award for my "EXposed" light and tone workshop.

Wanting something calmer, I moved to Mexico in 2017. It's a land of magical light. I'm here now exploring light and trying to master my weak areas. I make videos of that for my Youtube channel, sharing what I learn. I hope you'll stick around and be part of Light Hunters Tribe... Gavin
