How PS gives color to girls on the grass

PS Palette

Or that sentence, not every hue is suitable for any picture, before and after shooting a group of films and then we should have ideas, before the film is about to be filmed in the mind of what composition, with what kind of tone, Of course, for amateur players, there are times when they encounter irresistible factors (weather, the condition of the model, the preparation of the shape, etc.) After the shooting and imagined that there will be differences, so later reengineering is an important and necessary process, master simple and rapid late method is conducive to improve and make up for the lack of shooting.

First step: Copy layer Highlight

Copy layers, and use curves or levels to slightly highlight the whole copy layer (it is certainly recommended that you use the tools in the "Create a new fill or adjust layer" under the layer bar) to help preserve the layer from being corrupted.

Step two: Optional color options

Is the most important part of the whole process, is also the process of shaping the overall picture tone, but also the most test operation on the tone of personal understanding and sensitivity, but also through (the layer bar under the "Create a new fill or adjust layer" within the tool to operate), the specific parameters as shown in the figure.

Step Three: Curve palette

Curve is not only used to improve or reduce the brightness, the directory of Red/green/Blue is also a good tool to make up for the last step can not achieve the color effect, (also using the Layer bar under the tool "create a new fill or adjust the layer" within the curve tool to operate)

(as shown in the picture)

Fifth Step: Facial detail adjustment

This step is mainly to the face of the details of the adjustment, mainly: freckle/liquefaction/eyes/lips and so on. Depending on the situation.

Sixth step: Environmental color Construction

This step is also the last one, it is necessary according to the story of the scene and the purpose of the appeal, similar to this small clear, personal habits to add some environmental color light atmosphere contrast. Create a new layer create a circle selection fill the color block you want-Gaussian blur (parameter 100)-color Dodge mode-opaque 50%. Finally, the whole change in the face zoom zoom in carefully watch also need to modify the details of the section-Finished.

Yes, here's a hint. If you use the same parameters as me to your film to color the result is not necessarily this hue because the film is different, here is only a way of communication, more operational way to express their understanding of color formation of the film is their own
