Photoshop Color Balance Basics Tutorial

The focus of the tutorial is to help you deeply correct the color depth of your picture's production value. Learn some simple techniques while creating. I will use the Photoshop CS4 for this tutorial, but the features I will use are all in previous versions of Photoshop. Or with any decent photo editing software.

Primary School Color correction

In this tutorial, our work will be the main color correction. "The small color correction affects the overall image, using a red, green, Blue, gamma () midtones, Shadow (black), intensity control, and emphasis (white). ”

Overview

Before we start, make sure you have at least the following tools novice understand your photo editing program has: curves, hue/saturation, image filtering, and black and white adjustment layer.

Quick Tips

Continue to adjust or separate the layer effect so that the time changes or deletes in any color correction process.

Monochrome and Brown

A monochrome image is a color range that includes a single color or color tint.

1th step: First, let's make our image grayscale. There are a number of ways to do this, but we'll look at only two:

I think the best way is to use the black and white adjustment layer. (This can be at the bottom of the Layer toolbox.) What is so great about this adjustment layer is the ability to control the brightness of the 6 primary and secondary colors-red, green, blue, cyan, magenta and yellow sliders. This is a very useful tool to fine tune the tonal range of the picture.

However, the black and white adjustment layer is only CS3 and updated in Photoshop. Therefore, if you are using an older version, skip to the next step.

Step 2nd: Apply hue and saturation to adjust the layer. Click on the Color check box, which will automatically saturation and color the image. However, Hue is wrong. Therefore, set the hue to 35. Now is the right to start looking.

3rd Step: Finally, your image perfect color, in black and white slider brightness adjustment layer. Using the Eyedropper tool filter to select the image to change, it will hightlight a part of the color range.

Only the black and white change filters are usually not enough to correct the image, so apply curves to adjust the layers above and get your picture look right. (preferably do these steps, finally-adjust your color after you-let you see and implement the color correction spectrum.) ）

In addition, the brown, you can do.
