What You Will Learn?

  • “Color! What a deep and mysterious language, the language of dreams.” – Paul Gauguin.
  • Color grading is the art of creating mood and emotion in an image by applying subtle color tones to the highlights, midtones and shadows of your photograph.  This creative approach to color is widely used in cinema, and video, and most of the films you watch are heavily color graded by cinema colorists. .
  • Now Adobe Lightroom gives us a tool to apply cinematic style color grading to our photographs. .
  • In this class we’ll explore the creative possibilities of the Color Grading Panel to enhance the emotional impact of your photographs.  You’ll be amazed by the possibilities that open up once you understand how to use this incredible new tool.  After this class you’ll see all your photographs in a new light, and you’ll have a whole new range of creative possibilities open up for you..
  • You’ll need the current version of Lightroom Classic, or Photoshop Camera Raw, and it will help if you have a basic knowledge of the Develop Panel.  Beyond that, all you’ll need is your creative eye and a willingness to explore new creative frontiers!.
