Tutorial sharing:
First, let's take a look at the comparison before and after Graph repair:
The author does not provide exercise materials. You can find similar materials to practice.
Comparison before and after modification, shooting parameters (6D 50mm f/1.4 USM aperture F2.8 shutter 1/320 seconds ISO100)
Next we will introduce how to create a dark tone and express the gloomy feeling.
Step 1: Open the CR2 format source image in PS and adjust the image through Camera raw. First, the overall impression is slightly increased, and the contrast is slightly increased. Because the water is too bright in the distance, the highlights are reduced. Shadow, white, black for details. Increase the definition and natural saturation.
Step 2: adjust the curve to increase the contrast between brightness and shade.
Step 3: adjust the color by using HSL. The orange color mainly controls the skin color. Other colors are used to adjust the color of a person. You do not have to remember the parameters.
Step 4: Add a dark angle, create an atmosphere, and then add a blue color to the camera calibration. Why do you want to tune it. After the adjustment, the change is not very big, that is, it looks less gray than the original film, the skin is a lot transparent, and the skin color is also shining.
Step 5: open the image and adjust it in PS. In PS, I usually adjust the color of the image first. First, adjust the color order, press a bit in the middle, and then add an S curve.
By balancing the yellow and black colors of less skin, let the skin shine again.
Adjust the skin again with the optional color. The only objective is to be transparent. Remove the blue and black colors.
Then, print the layers, and compress the arm, chin, and neck to get the following results.
Step 6: skin polishing: remove the red position on the neck (summer mosquito bites), corner of the mouth, dark color blocks, and scratches on the arm. If skin polishing is performed, the high-frequency processing will retain some texture, small acne marks such as black spots can be used to repair the paint brush tool directly deal. There are many skin polishing methods and many online tutorials.
Step 7: focus on it. Here we use the Analog Efex Pro 2 plug-in color: fill. Plug-ins are not omnipotent. You need to configure parameters by yourself. Do not set filters in the plug-in hard. Here I have a preset solution for this group of images.
Step 8: use the film plug-in Exposure 7 to add screen noise through the chrome 1000 RS. I used to use the Exposure 7 plug-in to add noise, this is a post-film plug-in that many photographers use. Then, sharpen the image.
In addition to noise, you can also make minor adjustments through this software, you can create your own presets in this software.
Step 9: increase the blue tone of the photo to give a gloomy and dull feeling. Here I only use Moonlight.3DL in 3DLUT to adjust the value, and then control the filling amount to 50%. Then, this set of photos will be adjusted.
You don't have to remember the parameters for subsequent adjustments. You have to think about the problem several times before repairing the image. It is best to think about how to take this set of photos before taking them, and then predict how to repair them. The final results are as follows:
All right, the above information is all the content that I will share with the users of this software of photoshop in detail after the analysis of the dark blue and cold portraits, you can see that the user here, Xiaobian believes that you are now very clear about the later color method, then you can follow the tutorials shared in the small editor to try the effect of color matching.
