  • Curves are a fundamental component of Photoshop's editing toolbox and if you are not using them, you are seriously missing out. They possess the ability to breathe life into dull photos, accentuate mood and drama, and fine-tune colour balance with unmatched precision.
    With a solid understanding of curves in photoshop, you'll have the means to effortlessly manipulate tonal values and breathe new life into your digital creations.

    You're a great teacher. You not only know your trade, but more importantly you know how to pass on the knowledge. Its great IQ and EQ. Thank you for the videos.
    The video is so good that my wife who was walking past the tv stopped to watch it 😅 and she doesn't even work with Photoshop.

      Hi, it's available in Lr classic and I think Lr mobile. It works the same as in Ps. Hope that helps 👍

    Hey Up Mark, Cracking video (Thank You) with a But... Yeah I do use them, as do many others...maybe 4, or 5, or 8 adjustments curve layers selectively adjusting areas that I feel require the added contrast. Perhaps the title should have been a little more inclined towards Photographers! "Why you should use curves", just my annoying (sorry, honestly) take on your chosen title. Be Well and Thank You.

    • @theschoolofphotography
      @theschoolofphotography  Рік тому

      Agreed Gary. I wish I didn't have to use these click bait titles. If I'm going to be honest, it makes me cringe!! But this is the UA-cam world, if you don't make titles like that, no one clicks on it! Glad you liked the video anyway 👍

  • @larrymulmed2081
    @larrymulmed2081 Рік тому

    Great video, thank you. I appreciate your teaching style, not rushing. Very helpful point on how using curves allows focused color adjustments vs universal adjustments with the HSL panel approach.
