How to Change the Color of Anything in Photoshop
When changing the color of an object in Photoshop there are ways of changing both the base and highlight color of an object. We go
over each of these methods in this episode!
Base Color and Highlight Color
Today we will be changing the color of a car from blue to green. Cars have base colors and often times the highlights reflect a variation of that color. We use Hue/Saturation to target Blues and then adjust the hue slider until we have a color we like.
After choosing green as a base color we select out the highlights using Select Color Range and bring that selection into the Color Balance Adjustment layer. From here we show you how to adjust highlights, mid tones, and shadows separately.
Adding Style with Lens Flare
After we change the color of the car we couldn’t resist adding a nice lens flare to the image. The Lens Flare gets a bad rap but when used well it can be very nice. We show you how to get a lens flare on its own layer and make adjustments to it.
You will learn how you can layer mask a lens flare in Photoshop and even how to mask and blur it.
Using Color Balance to Style Your Image
To finish the image off we use a Color Balance adjustment layer. Color Balance will allow you to change the highlight, mid tone, and shadow colors separately. This ability makes Color Balance ideal when it comes to adding style to an image.
In this case we add more yellow and red into the highlights while at the same time adding blues and greens into the shadows. The effect is subtle enough but gives the image a bit more of an edge.
When Adobe Illustrator was first released, many designers didn’t believe a computer program could replace their T-squares, rubber cement, and technical pens. See how designers made the often painful, sometimes scary, sometimes delightful, change from traditional to digital tools, and along the way, rode the wave of the digital design revolution. This is Chapter 2 in a series of three videos on the story of Adobe Illustrator.
When Adobe Illustrator first shipped in 1987, the new product not only altered Adobe’s course, it changed drawing and graphic design forever. See how Adobe Co-Founder John Warnock first conceived of Illustrator as a PostScript drawing tool and how PostScript’s Bézier curves could be applied to the shapes illustrators painstakingly created by hand. This is Chapter 1 in a series of three videos on the story of Adobe Illustrator.
