Ins style ps color matching course in Europe and America

European and American ins style ps color matching tutorial is as follows:

This warm color, which is partial to Europe and America, was liked by many foreign photographers in the later period, especially taking pictures of buildings and the sky. This style will look good, so what are the color matching skills of this tone? Let's have a look.

Black relationship: Since this kind of film was shot during the day, it is good to make the fine beat as clear as possible in brightness, especially the sky highlights should not be too much.

Idea 1: No more highlights.

The details of the dark parts should be full. The shadow on the left of the original picture and the bottom of the car belong to the dark part, but the details are not very clear. We should try our best to strengthen the details of the dark part, so the idea 2 is full of the details of the dark part.

Color relationship: We intercept the colors of three different places in several pictures for analysis. The first place is the sky, and the saturation of the sky is obviously too low. The second place is the right side of the house. The original color is too dark, and the adjusted color brightness is brighter than the original image. The color of the third house is the same.

Idea 3: High color saturation and high brightness.

Let's look at the overall color. The overall warm color is red and orange, and the cool color is cyan, which is what I often said in my previous tutorial. Warm colors are unified into red and orange, and cold colors are unified into cyan.

Idea 4: unify warm colors into yellow and cool colors into cyan.

On the color temperature, the overall tone is yellow, the shadow is yellow, and the highlight is cyan, so the idea ⑤ The shadow is yellow and the highlight is cyan.

Ok, let's decorate the map with our ideas:

There can be no more bright spots.

② The dark part is full of details.

③ High color saturation and high brightness.

(4) unify the warm tones into light yellow tones, and unify the cool tones into cyan tones.

⑤ The shadow is yellow and the highlight is blue.

Camera raw data adjustment

Open the original image and select PS filter-camera raw filter to adjust:

Adjust the overall color temperature to warm yellow tone to make the overall tone warmer.

According to ① there should be no bright spots. Reduce highlights and white, don't let too many white spots, and try to control too many highlights.

According to (2), the dark details are sufficient. Tip shadows and black, so that the details of the dark parts in the photo can be handled well, and there can be no dark places.

Finally, the point saturation can be improved as a whole to achieve the effect of ash removal.

Highlights are reduced, and dark details come out. The following color adjustments should be made using the HSL tool:

According to the idea

③ High color saturation and high brightness.

(4) unify the warm tones into light yellow tones, and unify the cool tones into cyan tones.

To adjust the color.

Hue: Warm colors move closer to red and orange, red moves to the right (orange), orange moves to the left (red), yellow moves to the left (orange) and green moves to the left (yellow), which makes the four colors close and the warm colors unified.

The same is true of cool colors, which shift from blue to cyan.

Saturation: Increase the saturation of the main color in the picture.

Brightness: improve the brightness of the main color in the picture, but the blue of the sky needs to be reduced to show the details of the sky.

In fact, many people think that the last step is very good, but my idea is to turn the overall warm tone into yellow. Now the adjusted photo is a little red and gray, which needs to be adjusted:

Enter the PS main interface operation, and click the "S" curve on three channels, which will make the picture more transparent.

At the same time, create a new curve tool, add gray to the dark part, and don't make the dark part too dark.

This step is based on (5) the shadow is yellow and the highlight is blue.

New color balance tool:

Shadows: Add green and yellow.

Midtone: warm yellow.

Highlight: Adding blue can make the picture transparent, and at the same time, it can also form the contrast between highlight and shadow.
