🌟 Featured Review by Pocholo Pasicolan: "I didn't know color gels could be used to achieve so many different effects!! Sandy & Matt never disappoint. They delivered yet another great and informative photography video on how to produce captivating photos which convey a certain story to the viewer and ones that have a cinematic color quality similar to what we see on TV/movies today. And, unlike Hollywood productions, the props and technique featured here are very innovated and accessible to anyone. I'm a huge TV/movie fan so I loved this video a lot. There's also a detailed and thorough post-process walk-through at the second half of the video, which I found easy to follow. Lots of great tips/tricks here!"
