We’ve filmed this video various times over the past decade. This is is the best yet. Let’s talk about installing and managing Photoshop Actions. I won’t waste a lot of text there, the video says its best. — Gav

In this weeks video I’m in white sands with the family and we’re going to talk about how light reflects and how those reflections can trick us. What we think is not always what actually is in photography and if you know how light moves, we will be able to catch it.

Sorry for the lower definition video. For some silly reason it did not save the HD. But the concept comes across anyways. Watch the video and let me know if the comments things about light that have tricked you. — Gav

With great releases like Alchemist and Natural HDR 2, 2016 was a great year thanks to you. We have bright ideas for making 2017 better, but I wanted to give you direct input into our development this year by asking what you would like to see us make here at Seim Studios.

You can choose your top 2 from this poll and let us know what you would like to see. If there’s something you need a solution for that’s not on this list, just shoot us an email @ effects@seimstudios.com so we can consider it for a future release.

Thanks for your time and for sharing your ideas with us.

For our Christmas Photo Craft I wanted to do something special, so I made you all a mini set of  cinema-inspired Photoshop actions for free.

Just download’em and load into your PS! The Ice and Fire action is a highly adjustable combination of warm and cool tones and the bonus action adds a classy understated glow effect that can be used in any image. This tool focuses on complementary colors and you’ll find its vert versatile. Merry Christmas.

NOTE: There was a glitch that caused the action problems on Windows. This should be fixed in the current version (162) so just re-download if you have problems.
