PRESETS:
SONDER
SONDER provides a versatile, balanced look that performs beautifully in any lighting. Carefully fine-tuned, it captures natural skin tones while enhancing the dynamic interaction of light and shadow.
SONDER BW
SONDER BW is a bonus preset designed to complete the versatility of the SONDER pack. While Gabe doesn't deliver black and white images, this preset represents his vision of the perfect black and white aesthetic.
MODIFIERS:
COLOR CONTRAST (+/-)
Increases/Decreases the contrast in the color channels without effecting the traditional tone curve or black level preferences. I use this in brighter environments like backlight scenes (+), and I use this for when I’ve underexposed the image or in darker situations (-).
DETAIL +
Brings up the texture levels as default they are lowered.
DYNAMIC RANGE +
Brings down the highlights and increases shadow detail
GRAIN +
This adds a film like grain to the overall image.
MOOD GRADING
Adds an adjustable layer of color toning over the top of the full edit.
SUBJECT BRUSH AI
Uses AI to select the subject and subtly highlight it from the scene.
WB COOL
Brings the color temp down to simulate “blue hour."
WB WARM
Warms the overall WB of the image.
