1. How to colorize winter photos?

Most of the winter pictures have cool tones. Cold-color pictures look simple, but processing others is quite complicated. First, you need to beautify parts of the picture and repair the shortcomings of the picture. Then polish it up as a whole. The color shouldn't be too harsh, but soft and dreamy. Finally, you need to decorate with some winter elements, such as snowflakes. Examples of using PS are as follows:

Open the original image material and analyze the parts of the image that need to be beautified: the character's skin is not clean enough, the exposure is not enough, the color is slightly bland, and the atmosphere is not enough.

1. First, polish the skin and simply repair the lighting effect.

2. Use the Lasso tool to select the highlighted part of the table, and use the Color Balance adjustment layer to adjust it to a uniform color.

3. Use the same method to adjust the color temperature of the left hand using color balance to create an effect that is basically consistent with the facial skin tone.

4. After local adjustments are made, adjust the overall color and create a color balance adjustment layer. The parameter settings are as shown below.

5. Create a Curves adjustment layer and brighten it overall.

6. Use the selection to select the clothing part, feather it appropriately and then adjust the color levels. The parameter settings are as shown below.

For winter color grading of mobile phone photos, I use the color grading Lr filter APP. The specific operations are as follows:

Color grading ideas:

Autumn and winter are orange Color, otherwise it is bleak, so we only need to keep the orange, the red and yellow are closer to the orange, and the other colors are reduced in saturation. The original image is as follows:

Import the image into the LR mobile app

2. How to edit a blockbuster movie without PS on your mobile phone?

If you don’t have PS on your mobile phone, how can you use your mobile phone to edit blockbusters? An example is as follows:

The mobile phone photo editing software used is snapseed. After opening the photo with snapseed, click on the tool and select the brush among the tools. Please see the position marked by the red arrow in the picture below

< p>Enter the brush tool. At the bottom of the page, click the brush on the left, and four brushes will appear, namely, add light and dimming, exposure, color temperature, and saturation. To the right of the blue brush on the left, There are two arrows, up and down, with a number in the middle. The downward arrow decreases the value, and the upward arrow increases the value. This value represents the intensity of the brush. A positive number is to increase this parameter, a negative number is to decrease this parameter. Between the positive number and the negative number, there will be an eraser. If you make a mistake with the brush on the photo, you can change this parameter to eraser. Perform wipe recovery.

We first select the light and dimming brush, and set the value to plus 5, and paint the yellow tree area in the middle of the photo, because we need to reflect the contrast between light and dark in the photo, so that the picture There will be more tension if there is contrast. But when applying, do not apply to the water surface or the sky. You need to put two fingers on the photo and stretch it in two different directions. After enlarging the photo, then smear.

Then select the color temperature brush and set the value to plus 5. Look at the picture below and paint the yellow leaves in the photo. The purpose is to make the picture look cold and warm because the sky is gray. The gloomy water surface will also make people feel colder, so the yellow leaves and yellow trees here will look warmer, and the photos will have a contrast between warm and cold, making them more attractive. Then change the color temperature brush to a negative number and paint the sky to make the originally hazy sky a light blue. The purpose is also to increase the contrast between warm and cold in the photo and make the cold places look colder.

After learning the tools this time, don’t forget the previous tools. After adjusting above, click the check mark to save the modified steps, then click on the tool and select Highlight Details, see the picture below

Swipe your finger up and down, and two parameters, structure and sharpening, will appear. Select the structure, slide to the right, and increase the structure. As long as it is appropriate, don’t adjust this value too high. After the structure is increased, you will see the structure on the screen. The texture will become stronger. Why add structure? Because there is a very obvious tree root in the foreground of this photo, and the texture on the tree root is very clear. We need to strengthen this clarity to make the picture look more textured.

Finally, adjust the overall tone of the photo. Click on the tool, select Adjust the picture, slide your finger up and down, and a screen like the picture below will appear. Select the atmosphere, slide to the right, increase the atmosphere, and make the tone of the photo. Overall looks better.

In the end, I got a blockbuster:

Personal experience: Post-production editing and color grading still require you to try, practice, observe and learn more, and find what you like and suits you. Color mixing method. You can refer to some excellent photography works to see how they adjust colors, summarize and practice more, and create your own blockbusters.
