"You really CAN have the color, tone and contrast of your photos look the same on a print as they do on your computer screen. Here's how..." Will Crockett
Screen to print match is one part of photography that every pro and emerging pro needs to be comfortable with, but very few actually are.
It's crucial for your work and your growth as a photographer to see images correctly on your computer screen and know that when that file is sent to a lab for printing or to an in-house ink-jet, it will come back with the same color as on the computer screen.
We all wish we could simply buy a $99 color plugging and move on, but there's no "one size fits all" solution. You need to adjust your system to fit your style, work and budget too.
Put your computer, room light and printer to work for you. This DVD has all the facts and shortcuts for you so you can get the color, tone, and exposures you see on your computer to match your prints so you will have the confidence and control to make all the file corrections you need knowing that what you see on the screen will also be on the print. Let's make it easy, smart, and painless!
Digital expert Will Crockett presents solid solutions and clear answers for you in layers that start with him walking into an empty room and inviting 80 photographers to watch as he sets up a computer, monitor, printer, and fluorescent room lighting to build the most amazing screen-to-print match you have ever seen.
Like magic, you see how to best setup your monitor, which monitors are best, how adding 4 fluorescent light tubes makes a HUGE difference, how the ink-jet printers are setup for accurate color, then watch as he holds a test print up next to the computers screen and it matches perfectly.
Then see how Will uses those same techniques in his perfectly color corrected home office by first fixing the room light issues:
In true "Crockett Style", Will takes all the mystery out of this challenging topic by showing you all the angles and options to make it work for you one step at a time and he shares his own decision making process:
