795 Creating pale, lifeless lips in Photoshop
- [Instructor] All right, now at this point this guy's lips are way too full and luscious and dark. Which is a dead give away that that he's secretly a red-blooded young man. We want his lips to be pale and lifeless and I'm going to show you how to make that happen in this very movie. All right, so first thing I want to do is select the lips and to make that happen you're going to have to switch to the layer that actually contains the lips, which is this one right here. And then the best selection tool for this particular job is the quick selection tool right here. And if your not seeing it then go ahead and click on what would be the magic wand tool and select the quick selection tool from the fly out menu. Then you want to go ahead and turn on this check box, auto enhance and you want to make sure sample all layers is turned off because then the wrinkles layer would get in the way. All right, now I'm going to zoom in on those lips. Maybe one more click here. Like so. And then I'll go ahead and paint over them and with just a little bit of work you should be able to create what is ultimately a good enough selection. All right, now lets fill that selected region with color by going up to the Layer menu and choosing New Fill Layer and then choosing Solid Color. And I'm just going to call this layer lips. I think quite obviously. And then inside the Color Picker dialogue box I'm seeing that foreground color that I was painting with in the previous movie. And so I'm just going to leave the Hue Value set to 205, let's say. And I'll set the Saturation Value to 20%. And then I'll take the Brightness Value up to 100% so that we have a very pale shade of blue, like so. And now I'll go ahead and click OK. And I want you to see something here. I want you to see exactly what the layer mask looks like. I'll ALT or Option click on that layer mask thumbnail associated with the lips layer. And now notice that we have some very rough edges. They would have been even worse if we hadn't turned on the Auto-enhance check box. So, that is something to bare in mind when you're working with the quick selection tool. Sometimes it is quick, as it was in our case, but it always delivers some pretty wretched edged. However, in our case, it's going to work out just fine. So, I'll alter option click on that layer mask thumbnail once again in order to return to the full color image. And then I'll double click on that thumbnail in order to bring up the Properties panel. Now if in your case that brings up the selected mask workspace, here's what I recommend you do. First close out of that, 'cause you don't need it for this movie. And then, go to the Edit menu here on the PC. That's going to be the Photoshop CC menu on the Mac. And drop all the way down to a command I can't even see, the Preferences command, which is much higher in the menu on the Mac, and go ahead and choose Tools. And then notice this check box right here? Double click Layer Mask Launches Select and Mask workspace? Turn it off. You don't want that. There's so many ways to get to the Select and Mask Workspace you do not need to be double clicking to do it. So turn that check box off. That's what I recommend 'cause notice there's a button right here if that's what you want to do. But the great thing about double clicking and bringing up the Properties panel is that you then have access to these two values right here which are entirely parametric, that means they're numerical parameters that you can change anytime you like. So they're non-destructive and I'm going to take the Feather value up to four and that's going to give us a softer edge. Which is going to work beautifully for this effect. Density? Should leave it alone. And then go ahead and hide the Properties panel. All right, now at this point I kind of struggled with the right effect here. Obviously we need to change the Blend mode. And you might think to change it to something like Screen but then we don't have any real interaction. And the same goes for Linear Dodge. We're not really going to see any detail in the lips. So what we want is one of the contrast modes. And the great thing as you can see here in the most recent version of Photoshop CC, is that you can actually preview the modes as you hover over them. Which I think is just so very helpful. The one that ended up working the best was Soft Light. And so, I'll go ahead and choose that. But now it becomes apparent that this is not actually the right color to work with. Even though that Hue value of 205 has come in so terribly handy over and over again. I need a less green shade of blue. And so to change the color all you have to do is double click on this thumbnail right here to bring up the Color Picker dialogue box. And after playing around I came up with a Hue value of 230 degrees and then I took the Saturation down to just 10%. So we end up with a more pale neutral color. All right now I wanted to bring back some of the shadow detail and to do that double click on this tiny little empty portion of the layer. So don't double click on the layer name or the layer mask or the layer thumbnail. You want to double click over here to bring up the Layer Style dialogue box. I'll move this guy over so I can better see what I'm doing. And then I'll drop down to the Underlying Layer slider and I'll drag this black slider over to the right in order to bring back some of the shadow detail. Now obviously that's too much and we've got some jagged transitions. So I'm going to press the Alt key, or the Option key on the Mac and drag the left half of this slider back down to zero, like so. And then, I'm going to take this guy, the right half, I don't have to press the Alt or Option key this time around to drag it independently because it's already independent. And I'll take it down to 50. So notice we have zero before the slash and 50 after, and that's telling Photoshop to allow those darkest colors to force their way through. And now, I'll go ahead and press the Enter key, or the Return key on the Mac, to accept that change. And just so we can see the difference here, I'll go ahead and revert the image. So there are those unmistakably live human lips and now if I press Control + Z, or Command + Z on the Mac, to undo that reversion, we have these much more pale, lifeless lips of the world's most famous snow zombies.
