millerbenny-moved: PART SIX: VIBRANCEwe’re getting closer to the end of this series! the vibrance layer can be very helpful, but it can also be more harmful than helpful depending on the scene being giffed, so i’ll show you the pros/cons of using it! they’re great for pale/b&w gifs (which i have no experience making, but will show the settings you can use as a part of that type of coloring) and can help with vibrant gifs, but sometimes can alter the color in ways you don’t want.here’s some examples of changes you can make that i’ll be going over! so our vibrance setting looks like this:vibrance changes, well, the vibrancy of the colors in the scene. so +100 gives us this:and -100 gives us this:saturation changes the intensity of the color in the scene. +100 (which i recommend never using, at least not for skintones) gives us this:and -100 gives us this (b&w):we can also use both settings at once. -100 vibrance and +100 saturation gives us this (almost the original coloring, but slightly lighter/softer):+100 vibrance and +100 saturation (is Bad) but gives us this:+100 vibrance and -100 saturation gives us this:and -100 vibrance and -100 saturation gives us this (still b&w but whiter/lighter):when using a vibrance layer for colorful gifs, i generally don’t touch the saturation settings at all and only very occasionally do i use +100 vibrance. if i do, i normally use a color balance layer along with it to fix any weird miscolorings.for example, +100 vibrance on this gif looks like such:and selina’s skin is a little too orange for my taste, so i’d add a color balance layer and fix it upwithout the vibrance layer & just with the color balance one i added, my gif would be paler:for this gif, adding +100 vibrance and +100 saturation works really nicely for the background colors, but gives oswald’s skin too much magenta (which we don’t really want)if i use a color balance layer to alter his skin tone a little, giving it a warmer tone:and THEN use a vibrance layer, it’s no longer magenta (but still, we shouldn’t use +100 for both as our final result bc he’s Very Orange) but with just +100 vibrance, it looks much better!most of the time, i use vibrance layers to add very minor adjustments to my coloring and don’t use too large of changes in the settings (unless it works with +100 vibrance like the oswald example). when i want to enhance colors, i’ll use a selective color layer (which i’ll be making a tutorial on next, so keep an eye out for that!) with selective color i can get this result (i can control how all the colors look & manipulate them):instead of just this (with a vibrance layer where all the colors are enhanced the same amount):as always my other tutorials can be found here (the tag) and the masterlist is here. if you have any questions, feel free to stop by my inbox and ask, follower or not xx -- source link
