How to Add Dramatic Highlights and Shadows in Photoshop!

In this video, I will show you how to add dramatic Highlights and Shadows in Photoshop!

We will be creating adjustment layers and painting manually to add the highlights and shadows to our composition. Few things we need to keep in mind are - the source and direction of light, the cone of the beam of light, the intensity of the light, and the type of material on which the light is falling.

Along with an ambient lighting source, we will also see how a smaller light source reacts to our composition, and we will add the highlights and shadows accordingly.

Moreover, you can also find a download link to the PSD so that you can practice on your own, and you can follow along with the highlights and shadows in Photoshop by yourself.

I hope you will find this video helpful. Enjoy creating!
