The Brightness/Contrast adjustment is one of the more simple adjustments that you can perform in Photoshop, but most people who I’ve seen using it don’t use it to its fullest effect. In this tutorial, I’ll show you how to increase contrast by “decreasing” contrast and building a deeper and more cinematic based look with the Brightness/Contrast adjustment. We’ll also touch on adjustment layers and how to use them as well.

10 Best & Worst Things About Photoshop CC

Check out another of my videos: “BREAKDOWN: Select and Mask vs. Refine Edge – Photoshop CC”

-~-~~-~~~-~~-~-

It’s Photoshop! The application we love to hate and today I want to give you a list of what I think are the ten best and ten worst things about Photoshop. These will be anything from tools, features, the way Photoshop works, to user experience and technical aspects of Photoshop. I’ll try to cover features in the best and worst parts of this tutorial that will be useful for you to know about when you’re using Photoshop. DISCLAIMER: This tutorial was recorded/written when Photoshop CC 2015.5 was the newest version of Photoshop. Maybe Adobe will have corrected some of these things when you view the tutorial. At least we can hope for that.

I am trying to find a happy balance between things that I love/hate as both a photographer and designer/web guy. Let me know what you think!

Well, it’s here, another Curves tutorial that I’ve done. This is the biggest and baddest one yet. I’ll take you from absolutely no knowledge about Curves and by the end of this video you will understand how to control the contrast, tone, and color of specific areas of your image without a mask and increase or decrease contrast as well as introduce or reduce colors in your images. Curves might be the most powerful feature in all of Photoshop.
