Скачать или смотреть Fujifilm X-T5 in Japan - Cinematic Editing

In this video, I walk you through my editing process for street photography captured in Japan using the Fujifilm X-T5 paired with the 18mm f/1.4 lens and a Black Mist Pro 1/8 filter. I demonstrate how I refine my photos in Lightroom to create a cohesive, cinematic aesthetic that draws the viewer’s attention to the subject while minimizing distractions in the scene.

The video starts with basic adjustments like cropping and tweaking highlights, shadows, and exposure to bring out as much detail as possible. I then move into desaturating and isolating colors using the Color Mixer to create a flat, cohesive tone across the image. From there, I reintroduce cooler tones through color grading while maintaining a warm, cinematic vibe that complements the overall composition. Skin tones are fine-tuned with calibration adjustments to ensure they look natural and consistent.

I also use gradient masks and targeted adjustments to control light, emphasizing the subject while balancing the surrounding elements. Finally, I add grain, vignettes, and other finishing touches to enhance the mood and overall style of the photo. This workflow ensures that all images in the series work together seamlessly, whether they are for Instagram, coffee table books, or prints.
