I graded this shot recently on a project where the model needed to have a strong skin texture. It was a deliberate choice : she was casted and lit accordingly, then color graded without any targeted skin smoothing. I am now using the same shot with a different color grade to demonstrate an advanced technique where the finest details of the skin are retained through heavy skin smoothing, for a more natural look. I have been using this technique for quite some time right now, and thought it was the perfect time to share it. www.cote-b.com
