in this video'm going to show you how , to change the color of anything in , Legroom welcome back tithe , Photo shop training channel I'm Mrs. , Ramirez in this video I'm going to show , you how to change the color of anything , ins idea Light room you might remember a , recent tutorial where I showed you how , to change the color of anything in , Photocopies is gonna be a similar , tutorial but we're gonna stay inside a , Light room and not go into Photo shop , sometimes you maybe working with a file , where you have an object whose color you , want to change and it's a simple object , like a jacket in this example and it's , not really necessary to go into , Photo shop to make that adjustment so , this is what this tutorial is gonna be , all about however I do think that , Photo shop does have better masking , option sand it allows you to change the , color of more complicated objects so I , do recommend watching that tutorial as , wellie'll place a link to it right below , in the description also if you want to , learn more about Liverymen I do , have free course on Light room CCU'll , also place that right below in the , description so just to be clear there's , two versions of Light room there's , Light room classic CC and Light room cc in , this tutorial we're going to work with , Light room classic CC which is the , Light room that has been around fora , kettledrum cc is about a year old , and that is what my free course is about , so if you do watch that course you can , apply the principles that you learn and , use them a Light room classic they're , pretty much the same when it comes to , editing decilitre classic does , have a few more features but in terms of , editing photos are virtually the same , okay let's get started here we are in , Adobe Light room classic CC and we have , the image that we're going to work with , in the film strip here at the bottom , then I'gonna click on develop so that , we can actually edit the image now , before Is how you the technique that , we're gonna use in this example I'm , gonna show you the method that you may , be familiar wit hand why this would , always work so I'm gonna click on the , HSL panel and from here Icahn select any , one of these colors and adjust the hue , notice that the hue tab is selected so , for example if I wanted to change the , red of this jacket to another calorie , can click and drag the red slider to the , left Otto the right but notice that I , can only shift the hue just a little bit , I can make it magenta or I can make it , orange but I really can'make it into , another color so if I wanted to make , this jacket blue I would't be able to , do so with this technique so instead , what I recommend you do is use an , alternate method so I'gonna , double-click on the slider to reset it , back to zero then I'gonna click on the , adjustment brush when you paint with the , adjustment brush make sure that you , select Auto mask so that it's easier to , paint over the color that we want to , paint and increase the flow to W and , the density as well then make sure that , none of the sliders have been adjusted , if they have been adjusted you can reset , them all at once by holding alt option , on the Mac and you'll notice that the , effect label changes to reset then you , can click and it resets all the sliders , notice that when you start painting over , the image you will be able to see the , mask the mask has a red overlay but if I , paint directly over the jacket you won't , be able to see the red overlay because , the jacket is also red you can hold , shift and O on the keyboard to toggle , between the different colors of the , overlay so you can make the overlay , green white or black and if you don't , see the overlay you can press the O key , on the keyboard to enable it or even , disable it in this example Think that , the green overlay will work best so I'm , gonna toggle to that and I'm gonna click , on this point hit the Delete key to , delete it and now start painting the , jacket so if I start painting over the , jacket you'll notice that I'm only , painting over the red pixels because I , have the auto mask option selected that , means that the colors that'm clicking , on over gatecrasher are the colors , that I'm targeting so anything outside , of that will not be selected for example , if I place a cross hair under his arm , over the red jacket and click you will , see that will select the red pixels , but not the background so this method , allows you to paint over areas of a , specific color really really easy to , increase or decrease the size of your , brush you can tap on the right and left , bracket keys on the keyboard , you could also hold shift and tap on the , bracket keys to adjust the feather which , is the sharpness of the edge of the , brush , and you can also see how the feather , slider is adjusted as I use that , keyboard shortcut but anyway I'just , gonna quickly paint over the red areas , and you don'thieve to be very precise , you can always comeback and fine-tune , your selection so now that paint it , over the jacket I can disable the , overlay and I'm going to reduce the , saturation to negative once I do , that you'll notice that I have some , areas that need some adjusting so I'm , just gonna paint on those areas just so , that I don'see any red over the jacket , in this tutorial'm not gonna be very , precise but of course when you're , working Ina real project you want to , spend a little more time making the mask , if you make a mistake you can always , hold alt option on the Mac to subtract , from the mask I think I went over the , line here so I'just gonna paint away , that area and for now this is gonna be , good , the next step is to add the color so I'm , gonna come over to this section here , that reads color click on this swatch , and just select different color so I , can select blue for example and then I , can use all these different sliders to , adjust how that blue looks so I can , increase the contrast the exposure , shadows blacks and Whites could also , increase clarity which is contrast in , the mid-tone sand I could also add , sharpness to that area and if you zoom , in by pressing the Z key you will see , that missed some areas I can come back , in there and paint those in I may not , need the auto mask for those areas so I , could just simply disable the auto mask , and paint over those areas you can see , that this finger has a lot of blue on , there so we want to get rid of that so , I'm gonna hold alt option the Mac and , I'gonna paint that away then I'gonna , use the right bracket key on the , keyboard to make that brush larger and , they can continue painting away those , blue pixels and obviously you want to , spend alto more time fine-tuning your , image in this tutorial it's not , necessary for you to see me fine-tuning , the image all I would really would do is , simply paint over the areas that still , have red to remove the red from the , image so that's basically what I would , do just paint over all these different , areas at this point you can make any , adjustments that you like including , changing the color of the jacket , so we could make it green for example , and continue adjusting the dominance , sliders keep in mind that the color , sliders like temperature and tint won't , make any adjustments tithe color , because we have D saturated the image , but the sliders that control luminosity , definitely do have an effect on how that , color looks so you can fine-tune it and , get the right color that you want for , your image causal is important to note , that with this adjustment you could also , apply presets so when you hover over the , presets you'll see that we keep the , green so you can change the color of an , object in your photos and then apply , your favorite preset and by the way let , me know down in the comments if this , technique was new to you and also if you , would like to see more light room , tutorials as you know usually publish , photo shop tutorials but light room is , part of the photo shop family so I guess , we could make some more tutorials on , Light room if you're interested also , don't forget that I do have a free , course on Light room cc here on YouTube , that you can watch for free'll post a , link down below in the
