Green Screen Package ($50)

This package is the basic tool for making a relatively quick selection of the green background and then removing it by following a few prompts. One action is for CS1 through CS4 and the other action is for CS5 and beyond. A special secret bonus action is included in this package, along with an illustrated tutorial and many practice images. These actions hold up competitively against both plug-ins and stand-alone programs costing much more.

Photomontage Package ($50)

Originally designed for green screen, these actions turn out to be essential tools for any cut-out image. Whether you cut out your subject using green screen software or selection tools in programs like Fluid Mask or Photoshop selection tools like color range or the pen tool, you will find these actions turn your cut outs into credible montages!

My actions are unique in this industry because they help you eliminate the fake or cut-out look as you add shadows, blend different color light temperature, and shade the edges. These advanced art techniques help you to refine edges so the subject will blend with even the most difficult or unforgiving background. For instance, a solid blue sky can reveal edges with halos or hard edges produced after keying out the green. Not to worry, because Minimizing Halo Edges goes to work for you. Other actions help you remove the “gray junk” left behind when lighting is not perfected. No other green screen program does that.  And one action provides you with a light wrap effect for a soft lighting look.

The previous actions help you work on edge quality for your portrait, however there is one action that can be used on almost any image. It not only corrects edge problems but also adds a degree of realism not possibly previously except through tedious handwork. Shaded Edge blends foreground and background perfectly and may be the most powerful yet simple effect you can add to any photomontage.

Portraiture Enhancement Package ($40)

Do you envy those photographers who possess enough lights and techniques to add hair lights, rim or edge lights or catch lights to eyes? The actions in this suite mimic these magic lighting techniques.
Faux Hair Light and Faux Rim Light provide post-production methods for creating accent lights effects.
Retro Black and White Conversion gives an image an other-era look.
Faux Catch Lights adds sparkle and depth to eyes that lack catch lights.
Hard-Soft Sharpening gives your images the look of Hollywood’s classic, heroic tough-guy sharpness.

All of these effects will separate your images from the crowd.

Touch Ups Package ($40)

This package will help you to finish touching up an individual photo swiftly and effectively. You’ll spend less than 5 minutes on special images fixing issues related to skin, teeth, and shine. It also includes actions for selective burn-and-dodge and sharpening.
Skin Smoothing enhances your subject’s beauty and reduces distractions.
Burning & Dodging with SoftLight helps you control local contrast. You can reduce bags under the eyes and darken double chin areas so they go away.
Shine Be Reduced reduces the harsh specular flash that produces shine on noses, cheeks, and chins. Whitening Teeth provides an inexpensive alternative to costly dental processes.
Special Sharpening Actions let you boldly or delicately sharpen lips, teeth, and eyes.
