Many girls are very fond of Japanese and Korean tones, because the tone is soft, beautiful, give a person a very comfortable feeling.
For these tonal adjustments, the most important thing is the early filming to be in place. Late PS is only auxiliary early stage and adjust tone.
But often before shooting but not to consider the final will be processed into what kind of effect, this is a lot of new learning photography friend's distress, no destination shooting (blind shot), there is no theme (confusion).
Do not know how to deal with tones after the filming is complete. Know how to photograph a friend, will be prior to shooting has a clear theme, and the camera's white balance (color temperature), saturation, color bias and other controls should be set up well.
The problem is, the camera does not set the parameters before the shooting, but how to deal with it?
Here, I wrote a little PS tutorial on these questions, hoping to help you.
Let's take a look at the original film and the effect Photo:
1, because the camera is not set before the parameters, what should be done later?
To adjust this Korean pastoral style with PS, we can set the white balance (color temperature) of the picture through PS
Drag the photo directly into PS, will automatically pull up camera raw plug-ins, this time we can adjust the white balance of the picture.
Because we have to deal with the hue is a warm, soft pastoral style,
So, try to adjust the color temperature to the warm adjustment, while the hue is green (also show green grass),
Otherwise, the picture is all a yellow orange, color is not rich enough.
2, open the curve.
After the white balance adjustment, then is the picture color palette.
Use curve adjustment first. Why?
Because the curve adjusts the color of the picture faster and more accurately.
Red channel: The high light part is lowered, the aim is to target the skin color of the character, do not let it be redder. The dark part of the light, that is, add red, so that the character's skin tone over nature.
Green channel: Enhance contrast. is to make the light of the grass warm, dark green to maintain the status quo, but also increase the details.
Blue channel: The high light part drops, lets the sky increase yellow (because the blue and the yellow are complementary) to drop the blue means increases the yellow, lets the photograph be warm,
The dark part of the blue, so that the dark will not be black dead, there are less blue, so the color naturally enriched.
RGB: The overall light less, so that the film more fresh.
3. Optional color
After the curve adjustment is complete, the whole picture has the effect, now we have to adjust the color details.
The use of alternative colors, mainly for the image of a certain color to adjust the details, the purpose is to make the color of the photos more in place, richer.
Red: For the color of the character.
Yellow: Adjust the green grass.
White: Adjust the sky.
Black: adjust hair.
