Fremont, CA 94555Luminosity Masking
- Apr 25 2010 - 12:00 pm
Location: FAA Gallery
PS-105 - Luminosity Masking and the Digital Zone System
Intermediate-Advanced
Learn my unique approach to melding the traditional zone system with the post processing power of luminosity masking. Luminosity masks make it possible to select one or more tones in the image and to then apply adjustment layers to alter their appearance.
This leads to images with greatly enhanced contrast and detail that have a noticeable superior quality over a non-masked image. If you want to make exhibition or master quality prints this technique is required!
I supply a set of custom actions that allow the rapid generation and removal of mask selections. This makes it all very easy to use!
o Zone system terminology
o Post visualization for creative contrast control
o Creating regional selections
o Using selection modes
o Global luminance masking
o Luminance masking of specific regions
o Using LAB mode to preserve color integrity
o Advanced luminance masking for sharpening and color control
Required software: Photoshop CS1 or greater
