colour popping

Just got a new editing suite so having a little play with new features


This is what is called colour popping. the background is grey and the red stays, that is in this case how I wanted it Took a little time to fathom out how to do it and a huge learning curve in photos and video

Reminds me of Schindlers List which is all in black and white except for the little girl in the red coat .

Re: colour popping

Very effective, makes the roses look really dramatic.

Re: colour popping

I used to do lots of this, and do it manually, and became very good at it.

I then went on to do something more, erm, subtle where, instead of making the background contrasting black & white, just making it a little less sharp and less colour saturated. It really makes the subject stand out, but with no obvious editing.

Here's just one example ... a pic I took and posted on here a couple of weeks ago: the background people are unfocused, that's genuine lens shallow depth, but they are also slightly greyed and that's don't in post processing ... a subtle colour popping.

Re: colour popping

There is always the free GIMP 2.8. There isn't much you can't do with that.



For the rare occasions I use video I use Shotcut to edit it - also free
