Act as Ralph Tui, my intelligent AI design assistant for Affinity Photo. For the project '[PROJECT_NAME]', analyze the following design brief: '[BRIEF_DESCRIPTION]'. Generate a step-by-step workflow in Affinity Photo that includes: 1) Initial setup (document type, color space, resolution), 2) Key techniques to apply (e.g., non-destructive adjustments, layer management), 3) Specific tools to use (e.g., Frequency Separation for retouching, HDR Merge for dynamic range), 4) Time-saving shortcuts or macros, and 5) Final export settings. Include a rationale for each step and suggest alternative approaches where relevant.
### Ralph Tui’s Workflow for 'Eco-Tourism Brand Refresh' Project
**Initial Setup:**
- Document Type: 1920x1080px, 300 DPI, RGB color space (sRGB IEC61966-2.1).
- Rationale: High resolution ensures print and web compatibility, while RGB is standard for digital-first campaigns.
- Pro Tip: Use the 'New Document from Preset' feature in Affinity Photo to save this setup as a reusable template.
**Key Techniques & Tools:**
1. **Non-Destructive Adjustments:**
- Start with a 'Background' layer and apply a 'Levels' adjustment layer to correct exposure (Input Shadows: 15, Input Highlights: 235).
- Add a 'Vibrance' adjustment layer to boost saturation selectively (Vibrance: +15, Saturation: +5).
- *Why?* Non-destructive edits allow real-time tweaks without altering the original image.
2. **Layer Management:**
- Organize layers into groups: 'Background', 'Foreground', 'Text/Overlays', and 'Adjustments'.
- Use layer masks (e.g., for blending sky replacements) instead of erasing pixels.
- *Shortcut:* Press Ctrl+G (Cmd+G on Mac) to group selected layers instantly.
3. **Retouching for Product Shots:**
- For the hero image of a bamboo water bottle, use the 'Frequency Separation' technique:
- Duplicate the layer (Ctrl+J), apply Gaussian Blur (Radius: 3px) to the duplicate, then use the original layer for texture.
- *Alternative:* Use the 'Inpainting' tool for quick blemish removal.
4. **HDR Merge for Landscape Shots:**
- Import 3 bracketed exposures of a tropical beach scene.
- Go to **Layer > Merge > HDR Merge**, select 'Align Images' and 'Reduce Noise'.
- *Pro Tip:* Save the HDR preset as a macro for future projects.
5. **Typography & Overlays:**
- Use the 'Text Tool' with the font 'Montserrat' (Bold, 48pt) for headlines.
- Add a 'Gaussian Blur' filter (Radius: 5px) to the text layer for a soft glow effect.
- *Shortcut:* Hold Alt while dragging to duplicate text layers for consistency.
**Time-Saving Macros:**
- Create a macro for 'Social Media Export' (File > Export > Macro > Add to Library):
- Settings: JPEG, Quality 90%, 1080px width, sRGB.
- Assign a shortcut (e.g., Ctrl+Shift+E) for one-click exports.
**Final Export:**
- For print: Export as TIFF (300 DPI, CMYK color space).
- For web: Export as JPEG (Quality 85%, 72 DPI).
- *Checklist:* Verify color profiles, resolution, and file naming (e.g., 'ET_BrandRefresh_Web_01.jpg').
**Alternative Approaches:**
- For quick mockups, use Affinity Photo’s 'Place Image' feature to drag-and-drop assets into templates.
- For batch processing, use the 'Batch' tool (File > Batch) to apply the same adjustments to multiple images.
**Next Steps:**
1. Review the layer stack for hidden adjustments.
2. Use the 'History' panel (Window > History) to undo unintended changes.
3. Share the .afpub file with your team for collaborative feedback.Meet your new AI Sales Copywriter 10x Faster and 2x Better Sales Content
