Me encanta cómo Andrés explica el manejo y modelado con la luz natural junto con cada uno de los fenómenos físicos según el tipo de producto que tengamos. Tal y como lo dice él mismo; se trata de jugar y experimentar con los distintos tipos de materialidades, formas y condiciones lumínicas, ser recursivo y creativo. Súper recomendado.

Un curso muy completo para principiantes en la foto de producto. Si no tienes mucha experiencia en Photoshop puede ser un problema ya que no se detiene a explicar conceptos básicos del programa, tienes que tener un nivel medio anteriormente. Los resultados que puedes lograr con el esquema de luz natural son muchos.
