Challenge: Improving a high-end studio portrait

Challenge: Improving a high-end studio portrait

(upbeat music) - [Instructor] Welcome to the challenge movie for this chapter. For this particular challenge, you'll be working with this portrait that I captured, and if we zoom in on the portrait, I want to highlight a few areas that I would like you to work on. One is, I would like you to work on a couple of the little areas of the skin, so remove a few little skin blemishes. Next, I want you to fill in just a bit, the hair in this area so it looks a little bit more solid. Also, retouch away the highlight on the upper lip. And then, last but not least, brighten, and add a little bit of snap to the clothing and also the hair. To achieve this, I encourage you to use all the skills you've learned so far. And for this particular challenge, I'll give yourself just a few minutes to accomplish this, to see if you can do this kind of quickly. Then after you do the challenge yourself, come back to the next movie for the solution where I will show you my own approach.
