Want to drop your clients into a completely different scene without a green screen — and make it actually look real? Photographer Mark Wallace breaks down two brand new Evoto tools that change the game: AI Background Fusion (basically virtual sets) and a new Creative Effects tab packing Lens Blur and Post Crop Vignette.
By the end of this video, you'll know how to pop a subject out of any photo and place them into a fully composited scene — layering foreground and background elements, resizing and repositioning your subject, browsing official scene packs (sports, school, kids, maternity, outdoor, and more) or building your own, and saving the whole look as a preset you can batch-apply across an entire shoot. You'll also see exactly why this handles flyaway hair better than any background tool you've used before.
You'll also learn how to fake a fast prime lens using Lens Blur — visualizing the depth map of your image, choosing exactly what stays in focus, and picking a bokeh shape (circle, 5-blade, 8-blade, cat's eye) to rescue wide-angle shots that have way too much in focus. And you'll see how Post Crop Vignette darkens your edges after cropping (so it never gets cut off) and how stacking it with Lens Blur is the fastest way to pull a viewer's eye straight to your subject.
Plus, a studio lighting trick that makes the difference between a composite that looks fake and one that looks shot on location.
