LESSON 4 – BLENDING MODES  Linear Burn

BLENDING MODE  similar to Color Burn but it does
 Photoshop feature that determines how not increase the image contrast
pixels of a layer will interact or blend  Darker Color
with the pixels of the underlying layer  similar to Darken but it takes the
BLEND COLOR darker color between the upper
 color of the active layer and lower layers of the channels
BASE COLOR LIGHTEN MODES
 color of the layer beneath the active  Lighten
layer  applies the blend color if it is
RESULT COLOR lighter than the base color
 combination of base color and blend  Screen
color  opposite of Multiply mode
 composite pixel  Color Dodge
EXPERIMENTATION  lightens the base color and
 recommended in order to achieve a decreases contrast
certain effect
 Linear Dodge
NOTE  similar to Color Dodge
 there are 27 types of blending modes  does not decrease contrast
 there are no specific rules in using the
 Lighter Color
blending color and result color (varies
from one image to another)  similar to Lighten mode
 lighter color between the upper
NORMAL MODES
and lower layers of the channels
 Normal Mode CONTRAST MODES (removes the exact
 default mode 50% gray between white and black colors)
 replaces the base color with the
 Overlay
blend color at 100% opacity
 applies the Multiply and Screen
 Dissolve mode
 even distribution of the spattered
 Soft Light
pixels
 creates a subtle lighter or darker
 Pass Through result color depending on the
 default blending mode for a layer brightness of the blend color
group
 Hard Light
 indicates that the layer group has
 similar to shining a harsh
no blending mode of its own
spotlight over an image
THRESHOLD
 Vivid Light
 bitmapped or indexed color mode
 dodges (lightens) and burns
 adjustment layers
(darkens) an image according to
SPATTERED PIXELS the brightness of blend color
 use random colors from the base and
 Linear Light
the blend colors
 changes the brightness of the
COMPOSITE image depending on the blend
 combination of all layers within a layer color
group or image
 Pin Light
DARKEN MODES
 replaces the base color
 Darken depending on the brightness of
 compares the base color and the the blend color
blend color and selects the  Hard Mix
darker color of the two
 combines the pixels using the
 Multiply Vivid light mode and applies the
 takes the value of the base color Threshold operation
and multiplies it to the blend color
 Color Burn
 darkens the base color and COMPARISON MODES (psychedelic
increases contrast modes)
 COMPUTER 10
 Difference  fast, flexible and non-destructive
 subtracts the blend color from the  applicable to standard layers, shape
base color layers, and text layers
 Exclusion  an effect can be combined with one or
more effects
 same with Difference mode
 can be copied to other layers
 lower contrast and often creates
smoother effect  reusable and can be stored in the Style
panel
 Subtract
LAYER STYLE
 similar to Difference mode
 contains more than 100 options
 doesn’t convert the whites to an
absolute number TYPES OF LAYER EFFECTS
 resulting color is black  Drop Shadow
 Inner Shadow
 Divide
 Pattern Overlay
 opposite of Subtract mode
 Gradient Overlay
 similar colors to white
 Bevel & Emboss
 black color stays black
 Outer Glow
COLOR BLEND MODES (color utility
 Inner Glow
modes)
 Color Overlay
 Hue  Satin
 result color with the luminance  Stroke
and saturation of the base color
COPYING LAYER STYLE COMMAND
and the hue of the blend color
 allows you to copy the effect used in a
 replacing colors
particular layer
 Saturation STYLES PANEL
 luminance and hue of the base
 contains a collection of pre-defined
color and hue and saturation of
combination of layer effects
the blend color
LESSON 6 – USING FILTERS
 special effect
FILTERS
 Color
 small programs that add and extend the
 combining the luminance of the
functionality of Photoshop
base color and hue and
 came from the interchangeable camera
saturation of blend color
lenses used by photographers to adjust
 tinting colored images
the appearance of a scene before it is
 Luminosity captured on film
 result color with hue and  plug-in
saturation of the base color and  used to create special effects on images
the luminance of blend color
FILTER CATEGORIES
 opposite of Color mode
 artistic
 removing unwanted halo by
 blur
image sharpening
 brush strokes
LESSON 5—LAYER EFFECTS  distort
