here we have something I've shot not too while ago before before the whole corona
outbreak we shot this at the beach in San Diego with the model summer I'm
gonna post the link for you guys so you can take a look and I am using the
practical surrounding to complement colors of this model and I'm gonna show
you exactly what I mean so here's our clip of course not the
whole thing done in the video but we can see the model wearing yellow and she got
a very nice red purse the first thing we need to do is to balance our shot okay
so I'm going to create a new note alt s and right away I'm gonna create it into
parallel alt p okay as you can see it's a pocket 4k camera the first note is
going to be saturation and in the saturation tab I'm simply going to
increase saturation so we're working with a nice image now second one I'm
gonna call contrast and in the contrast I am simply going to bring everything
down just like this the way we have very nice basic image going on for us and as
you can see it looks really good so where's the whole complementary color
thing comes in we're gonna use right now natural environment to match everything
that way everything looks like a commercial so here let me adjust this
here everything looks good I'm gonna create a new node and we're gonna start
matching the whole thing I'm gonna convert this again into parallel first
thing I'm gonna do I'm gonna call this one wall and I'm gonna be working with
the wall over here so I'm gonna go into the costume and here I'm gonna do hue
versus saturation so I'm gonna point over here
and I'm gonna pop a little bit of saturation that way it looks nice and
saturated we're gonna feather it down now I can keep this color or I can
modify it a little bit it's up to you as afraid now everything looks perfect so
this would be editorial choice if you want to do it toriel choice go you
versus you again tap it on the blue and we can start altering the image we can
have more strong contrast or we can have a little bit more teal kind of look of
it that way it works nicely with our 70s theme there was a lot of teal and sort
of oranjee in the 70s so that looks great let's struggle this before and
after we can see a huge difference now our model looks fantastic her purse
looks great now let's focus on this giant ball or whatever this thing is so
I'm gonna call this one ball okay and with this we can do a few things I want
to get clean as possible selection so I'm gonna go into the window and I
simply going to select circular mask I'm just gonna drop it over here we're gonna
make it smaller a little bit okay just like this let's make sure everything
falls into it let's go to the tracker we don't have any perspective we don't have
any rotation we don't have any zoom so let's do basic do not track more than
you should because when you're tracking more than you're supposed to you give
computer extra information to kind of confuse it so don't do this if you don't
have to okay so let's track forward now okay
looks great all right perfect so let's see our selection we have the
ball everything looks great now in this selection let's go to the
qualifier and tap it on the actual ball and we can start seeing what's going on
when we move the center heel so let's make it a
little bit wider let's add a little bit nice roll-off okay so something like
this okay and let's see if we can make the selection nice and clean okay and by
nice and clean I mean something like this
let's do clean black a little bit now actually clean white okay all right I
think clean white doing nice job let's see if we don't have anything dancing
okay that looks perfect so we got nice selection now we can start manipulating
our image so I'm going to add more saturation okay and be sure to keep your
eye on it we don't want to be too crazy and with the wheels or simply with the
heel hold on where's the hue there we go we can change the color of this ball to
match our model so once we start moving the hue we can see things kind of start
looking a little crazy a little bit different we can have this ball color of
the garage door but because it's naturally warm it doesn't make any sense
to kind of go otherwise so what we can do we can try to match her purse okay
like that looks good let's see before and after okay and one
thing we need to do to match this kind of red is to drop a little bit of
luminance of brightness in that red channel so let's go to the costume and
select Y so this is gonna be luminance and you're gonna see how it's starting
the purse okay so that looks great what we can do now is to do a little bit
negative color boost so the ball looks even let's shake it again before and
after so that looks really cool we start getting
into the zone so now we have nice three colors going on we have blue we have
yellow and we have red now this is a proper way of coloring so when you look
at this image everything pops up instantly and this is a very good sign
when you want to do more higher-end commercial or when you're on set
actually shooting things this is how you're supposed to do it and I don't
want to leave those things just as this now we can start really blending the
look so let's do a new note and in the snow we can kind of start giving a
little bit 70s vibe so let's make our print a little bit warm okay all
together we can also do a little bit red in the shadows okay kind of like that
just a tiny bit let's not go too crazy so this one I'm gonna call look now if
we want to go more stylized we can start crashing blacks so what I'm gonna do
here I'm gonna go down with the black okay just like this I'm gonna put the
point and we can see how this point acts as a pivot so let me show you again I'm
gonna go back a little bit I wanna make dark a little bit darker in this node
now we're gonna do next note and then the following note I'm gonna just put
the point here as an anchor and we're gonna elevate everything and we can see
our shadows becoming very milky this has recently been very popular look on
Instagram a lot of people kind of enjoy this stuff I'm not too big fan of that
but sometimes it works we can see what it does to your hair so it sort of makes
everything washed up a little bit you can do very same thing with the
highlights let's have let's say a point here and we can start bringing and
down or up you see how it's affecting everything it makes everything looks a
little bit weird and milky let me show you so this is how it was before and you
can see it evens out image a little bit you know at this point as a pivot point
you can sort of control how much of that effect you want okay so let's put
something like that and let's check it out before and after so this is the
image we have and later it's really up to you what you want to do stylistically
with that you can continue working on it for example you can add more contrast
you can add film grain let me show you a really cool trick
let's create a new note and let's click alt Y so that's okay unfortunately
sometimes resolve go crazy let me fix everything they need to figure out how
to organize those nodes a little bit better okay let's see like that okay so
this is our okay there we go so we split the image into RGB red green and blue
and we can start playing around with all that we can go to key I'm sorry not the
key sizing we can go to node sizing and by simply moving tilt and pan we can
create interesting effects so if you want to really mimic like 70's or some
kind of artifacts this is very easy way of doing this so let's go a little bit
like that let's go on the green and let's see like something like this there
we go so like that looks great and we kind of
have a little bit vibes of the 70s so thank you guys for watching this is it
for this tutorial if you want to learn more about the color theory check my
oldest video I explained the how to use the little color wheel with examples and
if you don't want to you don't want to but I'm gonna see you in the next video
stay Khurana free and take care
