Photography and Gear #24 | PPN | Color Management is Easy with Ross Grieve

PPN listeners have requested a show on Color Management and Workflow as this is an important step in your photography workflow in order to get consistent looking image results. But some photographers leave this step out because it seems to be too complicated or they just go with their gut feeling. But thanks to modern technology, things are not that hard anymore as it used to be and on this show, we’ll explain the why and the how of a color-managed workflow in an easy to understand way. Because one of the biggest secrets of a color-managed workflow is that it’s pretty easy to do once you use the right tools.

 

We’ve invited pro photographer and color management expert, Ross Grieve to the show to take us step by step through a good color management process. Ross is a qualified member of the Master Photography Association, a Panasonic LUMIX Ambassador and an X-Rite Coloratti Master.
