One of my goals with this blog/website is to provide free resources for people who like to edit pictures on their phones. Today I will talk about the TouchRetouch App (Google) (IOS). I have had this app on my phone for a while now and I put it to the test yesterday, editing a lightning shot from this past weekend’s storm. Below is a before and after of the picture using the app.

If you are into using your phone for your whole photography process, I recommend this app.
Another free resource out there to replace After Effects is called Natron. Here is what Natron is according to their website -
“Natron is a powerful Digital Compositor that can handle of your 2D/2.5D needs. Its robust OIIO file formats and OpenFX architecture is what make Natron the most flexible open source compositor for the visual effects community. Its interface and functionally are the same across all platforms such as MacOS, Linux and Windows. Natron has a powerful keying, roto/rotopaint, 2D tracking tools that are staple for all current film production project that requires visual effects.”

There are some excellent tutorials on how to get started with Natron. Here is a playlist from TJ Free on how to use the software. There are others out there but since I am just beginning, the playlist I shared is perfect to start out with.
I hope you enjoyed this post. I’m still searching for free resources for those who are tired of paying for software and I will share it with you weekly. Have a good one. Peace.
