Hello. Welcome back. In this video, you're going to learn how to take this image or them. It's similar to this and converted into this image and, in particular, you learn how to adjust the brightness contrast
You're going to have had some tax D saturated area and then turn around and add some color, color variation, or in this case hue, saturation, there
Okay, so the first step. I always like to do is create a copy of the background. So if I ever messed up. I don't have to start all over from scratch here.
And to always there. One is I could use the keyboard shortcut Control. Jay, but you may forget that. So let's just go over here initially just go ahead and take that background and drag it to this icon, just to the left of the trash can, right there and really steal credit, a copy of that.
That way if we mess up and we're pretending point we can we still have our original image.
Okay, so first step is, and here's the rectangle marquis
And maybe yours is on maybe the elliptical Marquis. But if you see a little bit there. You see that little down arrow, that means there's additional options available in this case for news the rectangle. What key.
The first step. I'm gonna do is I'm going to press and hold my mouse button and I'm going to select the top left portion them.
If I know hold my Shift key down. I can see a little plus there that would allow me to add to the current selection by home the Alt key down
It will allow me to subtract the current selection for what we're gonna do is position my crossing the road on that bottom right hand corner. I'm gonna hold the Shift key down and nominate add to the current selection.
Negative monochromatic em on the top layer here. I'm now going to adjust the brightness contrast to do that up in the period Image, Adjustments and I'll choose brightness contrast
And I like to use the legacy. So I'm gonna go ahead and it's like that. I'm going to go ahead and increase the contrast the brightness and a lot of times I'll decrease the contrast by approximately about that same amount. I don't have to be precise here though.
Okay, at this point, I'm gonna go ahead and press OK, and then anytime. I've got these little march Nance, and then select lot of times I'll hit that Control D. You can see right up there.
Slightly select all this like that. Okay, now let's turn around and syntax. I'm going to press on the T for type and typically it's going to tie the hot color match your foreground gone so I'm just going to come right in here and go and put your own first name.
And then you can use the Move Tool and reposition that and then we'll go ahead and once you go over here and put your last name over here in the bottom right corner there and use them with 12
And what you're going to find one of the main reasons people use the brightness contrast is it makes texts much readable. Let's go ahead and just turn off this AI here.
And now you're going to see this very difficult to read this. The be and Bill there, but by adjusting the brightness contrast. It makes that text, much more readable.
OK, so moving on here. The next step we're going to do is go ahead and D saturate this and then add a little variation
Okay. To do that I need to make sure I'm back here on by striving to
Change the brightness contrast on this area. This was my active layer, nothing's going to happen. So I want to make sure
My background is my hockey player some go ahead and use the rectangle marquis making sure this is my iPad layer layers turned on. I'm not going to go ahead and highlight
This area right here. This is going to turn around and come up here to Image, Adjustments and I'm gonna come all the way down to D saturate
Now turned around to add a little color, color variation on come right up here. When we come up here to Image, Adjustments and I'm going to choose Hue Saturation.
And I'm gonna go ahead and turn on the color eyes button and you can see I can just kind of slide this Hugh over a little bit here maybe get a little blue pony. A little purple.
And what color I want to get. Yeah, I'm just going to go ahead. Okay. I think an entire I've got something else like when I'm gonna go ahead and select that.
Right, like that or finished with this image. I know it's pretty simple here, but just turn around and save this one. Oh, this just, you're going to want to save it as either a JPG or
PNG format and you come up here to file could go to Save As and then just save that image as
Required there on the assignment description. Now, Marcus next video, hope you learned a little bit about a Photoshop and, in particular, of just the brightness contrast that attacks and be such an honor. Thank you.
