How to Create BASIC Lighting + Color Corrections for Your Graphic Designs! (Photoshop CC Tutorial)
Learn how to create basic/simple lighting & color correction effects to your graphic design work (banners, covers, thumbnails, cartoons etc..) with this Adobe Photoshop CC 2017 tutorial for beginners!
The type of color correction I add is very vibrant, colorful and dark. Some of the things I mention are color curves, color balance, hue/saturation, brightness/contrast and more. These are what you call "adjustment layers" in Photoshop.
My style is pretty simple to accomplish. I use the brush (w/ 0% hardness) to add more of the primary & secondary colors into the design. I will also overlay white on top of the places in the design where I feel need more emphasis.
