Hello, my name is Tín Phùng, and I’m a professional photographer. While my main work is in event and corporate photography, I’m also passionate about street photography. I often use the CLASSIC CHROME Film Simulation for my street work, but I also like to switch things up and use ASTIA.
ASTIA is quite a contrast to CLASSIC CHROME. It’s known for its vibrant, highly saturated colors, but it also has soft, gentle contrast. It’s a fantastic Film Simulation on its own, so I don’t need to make many changes. I add a touch of grain to give it a “film look,” and I boost the COLOR CHROME EFFECT and COLOR CHROME FX BLUE to balance out the reduced tones in the Film Simulation. Finally, I just choose a WHITE BALANCE that fits the scene.
I call this FS RECIPE “Lucid Dream” because it mirrors the gentle, elegant, and clear light I see. It’s perfect for locations with lots of color, like workshops, streets with LED screens and neon lights, or even just a sunrise or sunset.
To me, “Lucid Dream” is like a poem I once learned in school. It helps me subtly describe the things I see through my lens, bringing the world around me to life in a unique way.
