Thank you Brendan for helping me put a toe in the water of selective colour and colour balance using the apply image mask technique. I have always used camera raw filter but with this method I feel there is more control to make those subtle changes. The key for me is to work non-destructively so that I can tweak and compare. The downside is that I'm spending longer tweaking and comparing before settling on the preferred image...does that look better or worse is a subjective decision and will it be shared by the competition judge ? Thanks again for your clear tutorial(s). Oh, and as if to demonstrate a point...I actually prefer the original image you used in the tutorial because I think the adjustments make the feel of the image too blue and cool...but hey, what do I know ! 🤭🤭
Glad you find this technique useful! :D
“But what do I know” should be how I end every tutorial from now on 😂 then nobody can disagree with me
what a great way to color grading,thank you
Thank you Brendan, I’ve watched a few of your tutorials and found them to be informative and to the point. Which is what I like. Normally (for me) it’s been , ‘monkey see, monkey do’ approach; but after watching this vid, I have an idea to add complimentary colours to shadows, mid tones & highlights. Mix it up a little and see how it comes out. Cheers Brendan 👍
Nice! Looking forward to giving this a try today. Love the cheat sheet! Very handy until muscle memory kicks in 🙏🙏
You got it! Glad to hear it’s helpful 👍
Keep going.
Well done, Brendone. 🤩😅
how to do rgb to cmyk without color change😢😢😢😢 make video please 😭😭😭😭😭😭
But by placing these masks on the adjustments you are strongly favoring brighter tones for color adjustment. This approach significantly reduces ability to color grade shadows.
Correct but it still edits the shadows slightly as shadows are rarely 100% black. When the shadows are edited as heavily as the midtones or highlights, thats typically when your edits look too “filter-like”.
However if you wanted to have the opposite effect to more intensely edit the shadows, you could invert the mask or apply a direct contrast adjustment to the mask to refine its effects as desired.
Frankly, I preferred the very original piccy without adjustments. But what do I know.
Everyones got their own style choices, you do that works best for you. I just share options 😎
