Join Chris Orwig for an in-depth discussion in this video New localized masking overview, part of Lightroom Classic CC Essential Training (2015).
- [Instructor] Since the original release of this course,…a new feature has been added to Lightroom,…and I want to highlight that here.…I'm working with the files from the Masking folder,…which you'll find in your exercise files,…and here I'm going to go over to the Develop module…and open up some more space.…So, I'll collapse the panels over there,…and we'll start off by working with this demo file…to illustrate how this new feature works.…Now the new feature is connected to our three…localized correction tools here, Graduated Filter,…Radio Filter, or Adjustment Brush.…
In order to demonstrate this, let's start off…with the Radio Filter, and here I'll bring up my exposure…and leave Invert on and just click and drag out…in order to create an Adjustment, and this Adjustment…is affecting everything equally.…Yet, if we want to Mask this in, we now can.…If you scroll down, you'll see you have a Masking option,…and you can Mask by Color or Luminance.…To keep things simple, let's start off…by talking about Color.…Alright, with Color, we have an eye dropper.…
