Join Deke McClelland for an in-depth discussion in this video Introducing the Gradient Map adjustment, part of Photoshop CC 2013 One-on-One: Advanced.
In this movie, I'll introduce you to gradient map, which allows you to…infuse your black and white image with as many colors as you like.…Now, I'm looking at a variation on that black and white effect that…uses a Black and White Adjustment layer, as opposed to a Channel Mixer layer.…And the reason is, I want you to see the difference between…just going with something like tint in creating a full on duo tone.…So, I'll turn on the tint check box.…And in order to get the same effect as…we were seeing a moment ago, or something similar anyway.…
I'll click on that color swatch to bring up the color…picker dialog box, and I'll change the hue value to 30.…I'll take the saturation value down to 15, and I'll set the brightness to 30%.…And I'll click OK.…Certainly, that's an easy way to work. And we now have a tinted photograph.…However, if you go ahead and compare that to the true sepia tone that…we saw in the previous movie, you'll…notice that it is a pretty different effect.…We have more neutral highlights going on inside sepia tone.…
