Use the Gear symbol underneath the video to get the high res 720p version & don't forget to turn on your speakers!Or watch the video on Youtube
I got the audio quality back to normal.
What you will & won't learn in this video:
It is hard for me to explain in general how I "do things", so I decided to just give you some examples. Today, you will find some tips and tricks on using Smart Objects, choosing the best cutting tool for the job, basic lighting techniques and changing the fire colour from red to vivid green.
Video Time: 12 Minutes
Note: Raw video time recorded ~1 hour 15 minutes sped up to fit the narration; the more things you try, the longer this stage of your workflow will be.
Please note that this is only part 2 of a 3 part walkthrough series involving the witches.

May I follow along?
If you want to recreate my steps using the same images, you can do so, but if you upload your finished piece I would like to see some credit for the tutorial, preferably a link to the tutorial itself - and of course I would appreciate it if you showed it to me. I have a collection for all images that use my tutorials - it's great motivation for me to keep this up because while the creation of an image may not take much time by itself, the post-production (i.e. the actual creation of the video tutorial) takes lots of time. So motivation...

Is a fantastic tutorial, although one needs to know well the layers adjustments -that's kind of difficult for me- but the results are amazing. Thanks for taking the time

layer adjustments are something you get only good at by practicing and trial and error really. So keep at it and it'll come to you
And thank you for the sweet comment

it's not uploaded yet, post-production isn't quite finished. It should be up within the next 2 to 3 weeks

Thanks for this. It's kind of you to spend your time sharing your skills and experience with us. The right-side notes are a very useful addition to the usual video tutorial.

Very nice of you to take the time and share your knowledge with others who are wanting to learn more about photo manipulations.

Good guide.
You say you use colour dodge for glowy layers. I mainly use a soft brush, apply a blur and change the it to soft light or overlay or multiply depending on the image. I think I'll try colour dodge on the next wallpaper I do.

thank you!
it's a combination of soft light layers and finally some colour dodge (you'll see it better in part 3) - the colour dodge easily gets too overwhelming and you gotta be careful there
And I'd love to see your outcome!

You're welcome
Yeah I know how strong colour dodging can be. For example, the last 2 images I made I was trying out different layer blends to try fit in a lense flare and and color doge was strong as hell
