?34 Lesson 6 - Foolproof Photobashing Part 2 - Film Color PT1

P34 - 00:01影視風(fēng)格。 ?

?Welcome back. Wow! You must have grown taller than the last time I saw you. Right now clearly our piece has something, has atmosphere, has some depth, but there's a lot of soul missing from this piece. This piece is most definitely not finished yet. ?

P34 - 00:22有氛圍有景深少神韻。?

One of the biggest pieces of that soul that is missing is the fact that it doesn't have much of a color.?

P34 - 00:29缺失顏色。 ?

It's kind of just grey and white and really boring.?

P34 - 00:34灰白色的單調(diào)乏味。?

So remember, this piece is meant to emulate a live action concept art piece.?

P34 - 00:41模擬真人影視作品。?

Therefore, the example that we should try to strive for, is going to be live action.?

P34 - 00:47無限接近真人影視場景效果。?

So my color preference, rather than going into a real life and to find some average color reference, I'm actually going to go into movies and look at references from movies.?

P34 - 00:58從影視中找參考。?

So this is a shot from the movie called the assassination Of Jesse James by the coward Robert Ford. long name.? You can see that there is a very movie like quality about this picture.?

P34 - 01:12影視質(zhì)量的劇照。?

This is because of movies. When they do post production, they put a filter over their movies.?

P34 - 01:19影視后期做了濾鏡處理。?

So taking a look at this snowy day in the movie, now we take a look at another snowy day.?

P34 - 01:26看影視中的雪景。?

This is what a real life snowy day should actually look like. ?

P34 - 01:30影視和真實(shí)世界的雪景對比。?

You can see that there's a very big difference. So movies use filters to make them feel either like moodier heavier, just whatever kind of feeling they want to convey.?

P34 - 01:42影視傳遞壓抑的情緒等主題。?

This is the reason why when you're watching something like, I don't know, batman, like versus superman, man of steel, like DC movies, why those feels so dark and heavy,?

P34 - 01:53鋼鐵俠蜘蛛俠蝙蝠俠沉重的氛圍。?

because they're basically instant gram filtered to be edging and moody and kind of like a nasty teenager. But it works. It works really well.?

P34 - 02:02場景氣氛傳遞非常奏效。?

So we need to really capture that feeling. So rather than using this reference image which would get me a very cheerful house, I'm going to go for the movie, the assassination of Jesse James by the coward, Robert Ford. Kind of a nasty feeling. I want this feeling, not this. So we are going to banish this by deleting it. It's gone. ?

P34 - 02:22不要日常歡慶雪要影視氛圍雪景。?

What I really like though about this screen shot in particular even though the movie the assassination of Jesse James by the coward Robert Ford, that is a really long movie name. We're just going to call it the assassination of Jesse James. Or I don't know Jesse James movie for sure that I don't want to say that every single time I have to explain this movie. ?

P34 - 02:44簡稱影視，不每次提全稱了。?

But the reason why I chose this particular screen shot is because it actually includes a little village. It has snow, it has mountains and trees in the background. So it is the ideal image. This is not the exact look that we're trying to go for. ?

P34 - 03:00因?yàn)檫@是鄉(xiāng)下有雪有山影視劇照。?

However, it is a fantastic base to start off with. The movie also has other screen shots. So here's another very viable piece that also give me more Information on how I should be coloring all of my pieces.?

P34 - 03:16同影視另一劇照給參考如何上色。?

So we're just all gonna keep this for good reference stick. In fact, what i'd like to do is try to keep it at the very Top, put them into a group, called references.?

P34 - 03:26參考圖層放在最上方，名為參考。?

The first thing that I'm going to do is I ask myself, what color overall are these references that I'm trying to base my own piece off of??

P34 - 03:37問自己主打色彩是什么？?

Hopefully you say that they're colored a little bit green and the colors a little bit towards like dark grey kind of feeling. If so, you are correct. Fantastic. Have a cookie.?

P34 - 03:51希望你回答是灰蒙蒙色調(diào)的。?

The first thing I'm gonna do for myself is I'm just going to go in color pick and find out that yes, it is exactly in the dark gray area right here.?

P34 - 03:59拾色器吸取灰蒙蒙色調(diào)。?

First thing I'm gonna do is cross my piece just so that I get rid of all the extra baggage.?

P34 - 04:02三分網(wǎng)格剔除掉多余的。 ?

And this way, it will also make my piece a little bit lighter. So photoshop doesn't have to choke on every single new layer that I add on to it.?

P34 - 04:14減負(fù)持續(xù)增加新圖層。?

Once you start photographing some really big pieces, if your photoshop is not very strong, or if your computer isn't very strong, then it will definitely start chugging. And it will definitely start wheezing, my old computer would rise 24/7. I had to get a completely new one, just because of it. Because photoshop is such a RAM heavy program.?

P34 - 04:39對計算機(jī)內(nèi)存要求高。?

So I here place my two references. Now I know exactly what I'm going for. This looks really familiar to our cinema demo, right? I'm telling you, man, every thing layers on Top of each other. The lessons that we learned, the first like three videos will be the main lessons that will literally repeat themselves over the course, because that is the secret to foolproof concept painting. ?

P34 - 05:05兩個參考圖并排展示似立體屏幕。?

Get the basic idea down and you can repeat it over and over. see, it is more and more like the recipe for a pizza. anyways. So taking my color picker, color picking it and I'm just gonna ever so quickly get rid of my darks. So here we are.?

P34 - 05:22吸取灰蒙蒙替代黑色。?

Now I just have my light and don't forget we have a lighten layer on Top of our lights and I'm just going to put it onto a clipping mask super quickly, so that it doesn't affect the dark background. ?

P34 - 05:33剪切蒙版保護(hù)黑色背景免受影響。?

So I have my lights and what I'm going to do now, is add a new layer above my lights right here, set it to multiply.?

P34 - 05:44新圖層，設(shè)置多重。?

And we're going to do the exact same thing that the movies have done to their pieces.?

P34 - 05:47模擬影視對自己圖層的處理。?

Placing a color filter. We take our bucket tool like this.?

P34 - 05:52顏色過濾用油漆桶處理。?

We put on a filter already almost instantly. It gets us so much closer to the color of this screen shot right here. But obviously it's not perfect. Ours took us a little bit too dark.?

P34 - 06:10我們?yōu)V鏡比影視的暗很多。?

So what we're gonna do is we're gonna go here, cut out a little piece just for ourselves. Drag it down and just see how we can adjust our color.?

P34 - 06:22從影視劇照取樣拖拽來進(jìn)行調(diào)整。?

So it can be a little bit more similar to that. Got a piece brightness changed by multiply layer just a tad brighter.?

P34 - 06:30多重模式，增強(qiáng)亮度。?

That means I'm in the right place, turn it back into color. ?

P34 - 06:32切換回到彩色。?

Now I suddenly color balance, adjust it, and you don't need to worry about, it being too close to the movie,?

P34 - 06:42顏色平衡調(diào)整。?

because at the very end of the day, you are still going to adjust it for your own taste. So right now we're just trying to get as close to the movie as possible to emulate that film Look. and once we've got there, then we'll be able to take photoshop adjustments and make our own adjustments to make it feel, how we want it to feel, different from the movie for sure. All right.?

P34 - 07:03模擬后加個調(diào)節(jié)圖層改自己風(fēng)格。?

And now my color of snow. So the overall color is pretty much exactly the same as this movie screen shot here.?

P34 - 07:13雪顏色類似影視劇照的。?

So I'm just going to cut out this piece. I don't need this piece anymore.?

P34 - 07:16去除掉原來影視樣本。?

And when I turn on my darks, you can see that this is looking pretty solid. already. I didn't even do that much at all To be quite honest already. It's starting to feel as if it's a movie like, but now we need to take it to obviously the next few steps. ?

P34 - 07:32開始下面的步驟。?

This is not something that we can turn in just yet. I'm gonna look at this screen shot here. I'm going to ask myself about the shadow. ?

P34 - 07:40這里劇照的陰影。?

And you'll notice that there are very few shadows actually, in this screen shot.?

P34 - 07:45劇照中陰影很少。?

So I have to kind of make do and figure it out myself. First of all, I see the foreground here is very dark colored.?

P34 - 07:54前景部分很暗。 ?

And it's kind of this shade. So I'm just going to take it and check it out. It isn't this kind of color, which means that a good rule of thumb, is that my rocks and my foreground should also be similar to this kind of color. ?

P34 - 08:08取樣，我的前景也模擬取樣色。?

So with my darks, I'm gonna do something a little bit different from my lights. I'm gonna go inside my dark, because you see the reason is because where my darks actually lie. All depend on my layer clipping mask. ?

P34 - 08:23我的陰影色取決于剪切蒙版。?

So everything that I have in my dark needs to be underneath this clipping mask.?

P34 - 08:27所以陰影層操作，在剪切蒙版下。?

So I go to my levels, and I'm just going to make it ever so slightly less dark.?

P34 - 08:34調(diào)取層級減輕圖層的暗色。?

Because when we add on that multiply layer is going to make everything darker.?

P34 - 08:38因?yàn)槎嘀貙幽Ｊ阶屢磺懈怠?

So we want to make sure that we adjust for that. I go above it. Actually i’m going to go right below it. So right below, change it to multiply and using the same color that I did to color the overall snow.?

P34 - 08:53下移圖層，多重層，用給雪的色。 ?

because there I'm assuming they used probably the same exact filter, soon drop of color.?

P34 - 08:59還是同樣的濾鏡，改顏色。?

You will notice immediately that the hue of the snow has shifted. ?

P34 - 09:04雪的色相飽和度變了。?

So let me turn this on. You see, it shifted a lot closer to my color swatch.?

P34 - 09:10顏色變得接近我的樣本色卡。?

So with this off, the snow is too warm. with this on, the snow is just right.?

P34 - 09:17關(guān)閉了雪太暖了，打開了雪剛好。?

This is exactly what I'm trying to get. So I don't need this anymore. I'm going to get rid of this. loop. It is gone, it has been banished. ?

P34 - 09:25樣品色卡可以刪掉了。?

The next thing I'm going to look at is this sky specifically.?

P34 - 09:30接下來看天空。 ?

Now I don't want the sky from this image. It's way too cloudy. I want the sky from this screen shot. And the only place that we can see the sky is in this tiny little section right there.?

P34 - 09:42太厚重云層改成少許的云層。?

But that's enough for me to be able to steal a little swatch. So drag it out. So I realized that the sky is a warmer color than everything else,?

P34 - 09:53取樣，天空比其它色澤偏暖色。?

Which means if I go to my sky, so I go to my lights, underneath here. And I can see my sky right there.?

P34 - 10:04光文件夾下面的天空圖層來調(diào)節(jié)。?

I can adjust my sky easily. Brightness, brightness, brightness, just like that.?

P34 - 10:10亮度調(diào)節(jié)調(diào)亮。 ?

i do my color balance, Now my sky is looking good.?

P34 - 10:21做顏色平衡調(diào)節(jié)后，?

A little bit better. Not perfect, not yet. But it's looking a little better. I'm starting to feel really good about this piece. I don't know about you.? So now that overall our colors have been fixated, we're going to go in and do some specific touch UPS.?

P34 - 10:36顏色修復(fù)后，下一步， ?

And I'm gonna show you exactly what I mean. The first thing is my mountains still aren't the color that I want them to be.?

P34 - 10:42大山顏色還不理想。?

This is the part where we have to go in and paint on Top.?

P34 - 10:47進(jìn)入圖層，直接繪制上去。?

I'm going to do a new layer, right here above everything else, and I'm going to set it to lighten.?

P34 - 10:51新圖層，上面序列，模式點(diǎn)亮。 ?

And now if you remember, the entire point of the lighten layer is to make things lighter. ?

P34 - 10:55目標(biāo)讓圖層變亮。?

It can't make things darker. It can only make things lighter. I'm going to go into these mountains and I'm going to color pick out some of there's snow and just lightly brush on Top.?

P34 - 11:08取雪地顏色，給山圖亮色。?

And you can see that immediately. It gives me this atmospheric look to it. ?

P34 - 11:12氛圍感拉滿。 ?

Now, first of all, you'll notice that, oh, no, I am starting to draw off the page, going into the black, right here. That's not good. So I'm going to put all of these together into one group. call the group little red, So this is my actual image, as you can see, is hiding my beautiful sketch. My actual image, here is my lighten layer, do a simple clipping masks. ?

P34 - 11:36重新分成四組。?

And now whatever I draw lighten and we won't be able to go above it. Perfect.?

P34 - 11:42再次繪制增亮圖層不會干擾樣本。?

So I'm gonna go and I'm gonna lightly brush these mountains and don't worry about going really light on these,?

P34 - 11:47不用擔(dān)心刷子抹亮群山。?

because they're supposed to be really atmospheric. They're supposed to feel far away.?

P34 - 11:53就是要群山在很遠(yuǎn)處的氛圍感。?

So brushing this in, and making those things lighter, is not going to ruin your piece.?

P34 - 11:59所以遠(yuǎn)山越亮，不會毀掉作品。?

Trust me, it's the only way to make your piece better. I like to add a little bit of extra atmosphere by having one sided feel like it's a little bit lighter on the other side. So it gives this effect of cascading mountains.?

P34 - 12:12一邊暗一邊亮，層巒疊嶂的群山。?

Now I'm gonna do the same thing with these mountains here. But you'll notice one thing is that well, my house and everything else is in the way. I don't wanna touch. Because if I paint here, then it's gonna paint my house. And that's not good. ?

P34 - 12:30同樣畫法，不能一下山一下房屋。?

But do not worry. for I have a brilliant plan. You're gonna go into your layers. So here. you’re gonna go find your house. So here's my house. You're gonna select all the components of your house by control selecting and then shift, selecting everything else that belongs to your house. ?

P34 - 12:47快捷鍵，選圖層，歸屬房子組。?

So I got my two trees. And then I'm gonna grab this little border right here at the back trees. Now you have selected this area out. What are you going to do next quickly get this little slice into, CTRL shift I. now it has completely inverted your selection.?

P34 - 13:10快捷鍵反轉(zhuǎn)你剛剛選擇的。 ?

So you will now only draw in the opposite of what you selected, which means I can now attack the mountains in the back, without having to worry about my house at all. That is so convenient.?

P34 - 13:23這樣涂抹山，不會影響房屋。?

So I'm just gonna go in and make these mountains a lot lighter.?

P34 - 13:32這樣可以大膽把山涂抹亮。?

Now my mountains really fade into the back. There are some really nice mist going on.?

P34 - 13:42山被霧蒙蒙繚繞。?

Yeah. Looks like the snow is almost kind of just drifting off. I love that kind of feeling. Now i'll notice that the back of my trees, these back trees here, they are too dark. So I'm gonna go to my back trees. I’m gonna select them.?

P34 - 13:55解決樹太暗的問題。?

And you can see that it's a really large portion as well. But that's okay. I'll just be really careful going to deselect my tree one, tree two. My houses. so now it is a much more clean cut. I won't be able to worry about touching anything else.?

P34 - 14:12選擇樹木，操作不影響毗鄰物體。?

Go back to my lighten layer, all the way to purify his name lighten and I'm gonna color it lighter.?

P34 - 14:17來到增量調(diào)節(jié)圖層。?

And for anyone that's interested, I'm only using the soft brown pressure opacity brush.?

P34 - 14:25只用軟棕壓不透明刷。?

I'm not really using anything else because this is a photo realistic stuff. And they, if you put a brush texture, does not usually feel real in my experience. ?

P34 - 14:36其它刷子給不了真人影視感覺。 ?

So I just stick with hard round brushes. you can see that these trees don't really fall into line.?

P34 - 14:44樹木并沒有完全融入線條。?

So I'm just gonna use a lighten brush to gently blend them in, almost as if imagine you're doing your eye shadow makeup and your blending out your eye shadow.?

P34 - 14:53像是眼影潤染模糊邊界。?

The right side is looking Ok. But the left side is still looking way too dark.?

P34 - 15:06右側(cè)可以，左側(cè)看起來還是很暗。?

All right, sweet. Now the back is feeling much better. So I basically do this on layer on layer on layer, starting from the very back and going to the front.?

P34 - 15:21從背景到前景一層層的做。?

Because now you'll see that these rocks right here, they're a little bit too dark.?

P34 - 15:27這巖石非常暗。?

So if I turn this into black and white, you can see that the value of these rocks are the same value as a rocks down here, which is not a good thing because we want these to feel like they are further back.?

P34 - 15:40背景和前景的巖石不可一個深淺。?

And to make things feel like they are further back. We have to make them lighter.?

P34 - 15:44遠(yuǎn)處的亮一些。?

Therefore I'm gonna go with my lighten layer and to several portions of this piece actually.?

P34 - 15:51增量調(diào)節(jié)圖層用給待處理部分。 ?

And I'm just going to make things lighter, so that I can push the stuff in the back that's back and bring this up to the front at the front.?
