STEP 7 - Post-Production | Add the Last Touch of Magic
Post-Production is that stage where you can elevate the final image, enhance the atmosphere, correct balances, strengthen the storytelling and resolve issues efficiently.
5 Tips to generate lighting that elevates your images
Enhance, Don’t Overdo (Subtle adjustments should complement, not overpower the rendering)
Use Real Elements (Add people, trees, or skies that feel natural and well-integrated, avoiding stock-image look)
Maintain Color Consistency (Keep tones and palettes aligned with the project’s mood and branding)
Work with Layers (Organize adjustments in Photoshop for flexibility and control)
Check at different Scales (Zoom in to refine details, then zoom out to ensure the overall image still reads clearly)
