How to become a Photo Editor/Manipulator 

In this video I’ll give you a few advices and show you an easy way of taking the first steps into the world of photo manipulations…a starting point if you will, and a few tips that worked for me.
I’ll show you my workflow when creating a manipulation and then use that theory to improvise a simple manipulation without previous preparation. This is intended for beginner-intermediate level photoshop users with links to lots of other tutorials I made in the past so you can see how all of the techniques explained on my other tutorials can be combined to create a manipulation.
