…In the previous movie, we cleaned up the edge of our mask…so that we now have this adjustment, which is primarily affecting the scarf.…Well, once you have a good mask, you can always take advantage of that,…in order to further customize the color or the brightness value of this area.…One easy way to be able to do that is to hold down the Command…key on a Mac Control on Windows and then to click on the layer mask.…Here when we click on that mask it activates…it as a selection.…Next we can create, another adjustment layer…for example like a curves adjustment layer.…
And that curves adjustment layer will have the same exact mask as the other layer.…And this way what we can then do is…we can customize this, say for example by darkening that.…Or, if we want to customize the color further, we…can go into the different channels, like the red channel.…We can make this a little bit more purple or perhaps a touch more cyan.…If we want to use a different adjustment layer, we…can achieve that by simply doing the same thing again.…
