This is how the idea to create Retouch4me plug-ins emerged – plug-ins that can mimic the workflow of professional retouchers with the help of artificial intelligence, but at a faster speed.

The programs for automated retouching that were being used back then would often ruin images by blurring them or changing the original skin texture. Oleg’s interest in the techniques and tools for photo retouching continued throughout his career, including a desire to improve them and speed them up. It also prevents artifacts from showing up, which is a common problem when doing color correction using conventional tools. This method allows for the transition between the colors to be smooth and there’s no need to mask objects anymore. By dragging the nodes around, you can control a specific tint with high precision, without affecting other colors in the image.
Each node of the web represents a specific range of tint values.
Hence the name of the program – 3DLUT Creator. The program uses a unique approach to color correction – it maps out a color wheel, or rather a color cylinder if you look at it in 3D, with a 3D coordinate web. During his career, he became passionate about photography, and while learning retouching techniques, he started noticing the shortcomings of the existing tools for color correction. Retouch4me: Oleg Sharonov, the founder and author of Retouch4me plug-ins, is a professional software developer who started his career creating a virtual synthesizer and developing plug-ins for music. Production Paradise: Could you tell us more about your career path? How have your former careers impacted your current work? We spoke about the founders’ career path, the technology behind the plug ins and their advantage. The Retouch4me plug-ins help to make the process of photo retouching faster and more efficient.
Together with Oleg Sharonov, who created Retouch4me he is working on plug-ins for photo retouching. We had the pleasure to speak with Alexey Tsarev, founder of Paragon Retouch.
