Jackie Matthews Posted September 21, 2016 Share Posted September 21, 2016 this is by no means finished and I'm not totally sure how to add a fake light but why is there banding on the light I've added or how do I get rid of it or have I even done it correctly?

Damien Symonds Posted September 21, 2016 Share Posted September 21, 2016 You'll need to add noise to the light. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jackie Matthews Posted September 21, 2016 Author Share Posted September 21, 2016 On another iteration of this I did, or thought I had, but it made no difference. I'll check my noise pattern in case in the recent PS update the one I used wasn't correct but ty Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Damien Symonds Posted September 21, 2016 Share Posted September 21, 2016 Ok, let me know what you discover, and if necessary, show me a screenshot again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jackie Matthews Posted September 22, 2016 Author Share Posted September 22, 2016 I found a 'brush' for the light beam. Added noise at 33% opacity on light only as per your article, any lower than this and it was still visible. Have I seen you write somewhere that if banding isn't present at 100% then it's not there?

Damien Symonds Posted September 22, 2016 Share Posted September 22, 2016 No, this looks as cheesy as hell. If it's meant to be a light source, it should actually be bright. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jackie Matthews Posted September 22, 2016 Author Share Posted September 22, 2016 I didn't get the 'art' genes in my family . Maybe I should leave it without. Was I right about the banding though - if it's not visible at 100% it's not there? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Damien Symonds Posted September 22, 2016 Share Posted September 22, 2016 Alas, no. Not with something artificial like this. Even if it's not there in Photoshop, you can't trust that it will print without banding. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
