Dodging and Burning with Blend Modes and Colors
If you have spent any amount of time with me you know that I am always trying to come up with new ways of using Blend Modes. I have recently started experimenting with the Color Dodge and Color Burn Blend Modes. At first I thought they were trash at best! That was before I figured out how to use them effectively.
The Color Burn and Color Dodge Blend Modes do not use the Opacity slider to control their effect. These two blend modes use the FILL adjustment to control how much they apply themselves to the image. You can use Opacity to subdue the effect, but the real magic with these blend modes and their algorithm is tied to Fill.
They are beautiful blend modes when you give them a chance, but they do require a bit of finesse to use. Try these settings for each Blend Mode:
Color Burn
Adjustment Layer: Color Fill (any color)
Fill: 15%
Opacity: 50%
Blend If to protect the shadows
Color Dodge
Adjustment Layer: Color Fill (any color)
Fill: 15%
Opacity: 50%
Blend If to protect the highlights
What colors should you use for your Color Fill Layers? Any colors really, however, I prefer to use colors that are harmonious. These colors are typically Complementary Colors on the color wheel or colors that are directly across from one another. Try using Blue and Yellow, Green and Magenta, or Red and Cyan.
In today's tutorial, I will show you how I use them and hook you up with some actions that do it all for you. Before you start running those automated techniques, please watch the video so you can understand why the blend modes act the way they do.
You give us the technical explanation which allows me to actually learn how they work and this is where you standout for the people that actually want to understand photoshop.
Endless possibilities just with these two blending modes! Thank you so much Blake for the awesome tutorial and the tips! God bless and Good luck man!
Thank you! God bless you as well, my friend!
@@f64Academy Very much appreciated Blake! 🙏🙏🙏
I have wondered about the purpose of “fill”. I have a much better understanding of that now. Thank you very much!
Thank you! I greatly appreciate the freebies you offer so often and your detailed instructions on their use is greatly appreciated.
Very nice. First time to hear about these options. Excellent tutorial.
:) Thank you! Glad I could help!
Another excellent learning curve for me, just got to lock myself away for a while now and practice!
This was extremely helpful. Thanks so much for posting these quick and easy tutorials.
Great tutorial Blake. I set up my own action and it worked a treat. Dodging, Burning and Colour grading with one click. One of your best tutorials. Thanks.
Awesome! Thanks, I do appreciate it :)
This is very useful not only for color grading but for correcting color casts.
Absolutely. Very good for fixing subtle shadow or highlight casts.
I like this technique, it's like split toning but with a lot more control. 😊
Exactly! Tons more control in PS
love this vid and love your Z panel. Learnt so much from your workflow tutorial Thanks
I have legitimately learned more about Photoshop and how to use it to paint from photo manipulation tutorials than I ever have from a single art tutorial. Thanks for this one. I never knew what the fill bar did or how to apply it and now I do. : )
Wow! So glad to hear it :)
Each post you add to your channel is really of great value and addition to me and to my modest skill, thank you very much for this great sharing tips, If you ever be visiting Egypt, I would be more than happy to shot with you, keep the great spirit you have :)
Egypt would be awesome! I appreciate that. I know my business has taken me a lot of places so who knows, maybe one day :) I appreciate your comments, thank you very much. I am just glad I can help!
Thank you so much for explaining! I have find it very interesting and so simply!
My pleasure!
Absolutely amazing tutorial. Recently I was watcing many tutorials, being interested in color grading. You told me such great things. Thank you for your time and your efforts in sharing such nice tutorials. You expand my knowledge a lot. You explain precisely every single detail, whatis of great value, for us beginners.
Awesome! I am so glad I can help. It is really my pleasure!
Thanks Blake....this is incredibly helpful and will forever change my workflow in a positive sense. thank you for sharing. you are awesome
Really great tutorial, thanks Blake for demystifying these esoteric options!
:)
Hi Blake, always great videos, like you I rarely used these 2 blend modes except on graphic effects. Using the fill mode made so much seance especially for Color grading....thanks for all you contribute as you are one of the better ones! Cheers
Wow! This is incredible. Thank you so much for sharing. You explain it so brilliantly I can hardly wait to use this. Going away to the seaside next week for a short break and will have some new landscapes 🙂
:) Thank you so much! I am so glad I could help in any way. I am sure this will work brilliantly to create moody seascapes like you saw here.
Thanks for creating the action to go along with your tutorial. I tried it out and Voila - instant improvement. PS I've always wondered what to do with those particular blend modes!!
Wow. Such great creativity. Thank you Blake!
Another excellent and creative demonstration. Thanks, again, for sharing your knowledge,
:) It is always my pleasure!
Thank you. I have never used the Fill option before as I had no clue what it didi!
I think it would be more accurate if it were called "Calculation" because that is the slider that controls some of the math, but I can see how Fill makes more sense in most cases.
Well done, Blake! Nice video and excellent explanation!
Thanks, I appreciate it :)
WOW i just tried this on two on my images. One was inside a mill and it gave it a differant look that was very slight but noticeable. Even work on black and white,
Awesome! I love your reaction here. It is also great for color toning BW, you are correct!
I don't know if this is too obvious, or not, but when using Color Dodge make sure you use the HSV system to pick your color, this is because the Saturation controls the result's contrast and the Value controls the blending's opacity.
Ya'll probably know what Hue does...
Funnily enough, multiply does the complete opposite, Saturation controls the Blending's opacity now, and lowering the contrast with Value results in a black screen rather than a white one.
Genius. Pure genius (and generous, too; thanks!)
My pleasure! Thanks for watching!
Pure awesomeness. Thank you for sharing your knowledge.
Another great tutorial. THANKS!
Great! Thank you Blake!
Very, Very interesting. Thanks for the actions.
Great insights, very clearly explained. Thanks a lot Blake. And for the ATN too!
You are welcome. It is always my pleasure. I am just glad I can help.
Blake, you are the best. Thanks.
Thanks!
Another informative video! Great work. I had used the Color Burn blend mode in the past to blend in textures (my second favorite blend mode for that use behind Soft Light) but had never made the Fill level connection you use to bring down the intensity. You show how to use this directly for color grading, but I suspect you can also capture the result in a LUT as well.
thanks,
richard

GREAT content. Always learning!
nice teaching, i never saw any use of those two items before
Thanks heaps Blake - awesome as usual
Excellent tutorial! Thanks Greg.
No problem, Jerry ;)
Whose this Jerry bloke? :)
haha, not sure, John :)
Thank you Blake!! Can't wait to use this technique on my images.
Outstanding, thx!
✠ Awesome, as always! Another brilliant explanation and a great way to give Color Grading on scenes. Have my Like (y).
Awesome technique, something I'm definitely going to try. I want to add something more to my images and unfortunately being colour blind its not always easy for me to judge what works best. I find colour mixer difficult to master This is a really straight forward way to subtle add that little extra to an image. Thank you so much and keep up the good work. :)
Awesome! Thanks so much for wathcing!
Very good Blake ! Thanks for that. Now onto a demonstration of cool uses for dissolve, pin light. hard mix, exclusion and divide blend modes 3:)
:) That is on my list :) I am off to France for a while, when I return I have a GREAT idea for my February 23rd post, stay tuned! Although... there is absolutely no use for dissolve, haha.
Hahaha looking forward to that Blake! If you plan to stop over and get bored in Brussels, Belgium, just say hi then ;-)
Really nice to see. Thanks!
Pretty useful trick avoiding to use luminosity masks and very detailed as usual! Thanks for sharing ! :-)
Very true, but, try these with LM's too! Pretty incredible stuff :)
Fascinating, Blake! Thanks!!!
You are welcome, my friend!
Thank you Blake really interesting
Again, Home run! Great video tutorial!
Thank you so much!
Thank you Blake , always good stuff from you :)
I do appreciate it :)
Very helpful - Thank you.
Thanks,great work!
:) I appreciate it.
Woooow
Wow, amazing Blake.
Thanks!
Nice Video. It's very well explained and the the action is definitely a great plus. I really can't understand how 4 guys didn't like it. Thank you so much for sharing!!.
haha! The story of my life with all my tutorials. How can you not like good quality FREE education :) Thanks for watching!
Just Amazing !! Bravo
Thank you!
Very very usefull. Thanks Blake
I appreciate it.
I've struggled with a problem when learning Photoshop: there are so many tools and each tool has its own technique. So I don't know what should I use because I watched so many videos.
So what is the most versatile tool to color grading for beginner like me? Curves and Gradient Maps, I guess?
Gradient Maps are a great start, but you can color grade with almost anything. It's the blend modes that make all the difference.
Brilliant as usual, Blake!
Thanks :)
Thank you for sharing!
I havent recently found your chanel, and man... this information is just money. No body really describes this stuff anywhere. well no body i have found yet. I have a few questions tho. 1) you have so many different way to color grade with color dodge and color burn the gradient maps. how do you choose which one you use? is it personal preference. is each mode different for different situations. how do you decide on the method to use for your own work? or is this outlined in your courses. 2) can you or do you possible already have start to finish images of an entire edit you do?
Thanks, Max! I appreciate your very kind comments 😁
1. I chose based on the needs of the image so there is not cut and dry method for choosing really. Just take them all in, deliberately practice with them and when you need one it will come.
2. I reserve full image edits to my various courses with most of them in the Zone System Express and Palette Effects education.
good stuff
Helpful video!
:) Awesome!
Now THIS is a good tutorial! Thanks so much! I loved it. God bless!
Thanks!
Very good - Thanks :)
:) You are welcome.
Smart. Thanks.
My pleasure!
Great video as always Blake. Since I am a Palette Effects user I know I can do this with Palette Effects as well as using the actions. Can you tell me which tool in Palette Effects sets up this color dodge and burn action?
Sure thing! Column 2 in the color grading palette is all color dodge and column 4 is color burn.
Very Cool! I was thinking of using this with the colors in a landscape image to dodge and burn with color ( in lieu of a 50% gray layer and luminosity masks ). What do you think?
Absolutely! However, do not forget that dodging and burning is your opportunity to go in there with a brush and sculpt the light. Automatic versions are good, but they aren't an artist and they will typically make dark things darker, light things lighter, but your hand can do the opposite for either.
Very helpful ,
Actions? Didn't see them in f.64 Elite. Yes, I watched the video. :)
Thanks for a tips.
My pleasure, really :)
Merci beaucoup ! Very interesting! (as usual...)
Thanks!
Amazing tutorial. Thank you
Thank you so much, I really appreciate it!
Im digging your videos and am excited to start using photoshop again. Ill be upgrading from my old standalone ps and will most likely pick up your zone system.
Should keep me busy for a while!
Awesome! Shoot me an email, blake@f64academy.com I will give you a discount, just don't tell my boss ;)
thanks so much awesome cheers
I appreciate it :)
I have testing to lighter the dark shadows I used out put on levels...
To beginner I think it's easier than blend if. cheers congrats
Great tips as always... But question: why use 'fill' to limit highlights or shadows and not 'blend if' straight away?
go on...
But when merge leyar then lose everything
superb vid as always
How does this compare with say lightrooms split toning ? both look doing a simular thing would you say this method is more advanced over LR split tone option?
The main difference is control. Lightroom has very limited control and not masks. These you can use with all of Photoshops other wonderful tools like Masks, Luminosity Masks, Blend If... the list goes on. Lightroom or Adobe Camera Raw gives you very limited control.
another great wee technique blake thanks again,could not find a link for the actions on youtube or f64 academy?
sorry blake,found them,my apologies,and my thanks again.cheers.
Blending opposite colors cancel each other out.
Complementing colors are "harmonious" when NOT blended but placed in the same design/creation.
I am sure f64 knows this and just made a mistake in communicating.
BTW - how many lenses does f64 have that go to f64? Of those lenses how many does he have images from? Just saying.
may have been a slip, my apologies, can't always be perfect :)
f.64 has nothing to do with lenses and more to do with Group f/64 and their thoughts on photography. My take is my thoughts on tack sharp education. I guess I missed the mark with my invalid comment during the video.
Downloaded the action in Feb. 2019 right from the link here. At the end it flattens the image, so there's no more control whatsoever. Seems to be a different action.
Hmmm, that doesn't sound like mine. I don't build actions that flatten your work.
f64 Academy Doublechecked it - you are right - wrong action. I deeply apologize. (My brain has too many tabs open ;-) )
I get it :) I just hate that as much as you do so I never flatten peoples work. That is the sign of someone with either little integrity or lack of Photoshop skills to program an action to fit within your workflow. Unfortunately, both types exist in the educating space ;)

Here is that video! Great stuff, thanks replying to my email.
:) Here it is! It was in the bucket, just a few weeks later than expected.
can not download actions :-(
Can you use this on like color balans to? :D
Absolutely! I would use it with anything you apply color with. I like it with Solid Color because it is more predictable. But experiment away, my friend.
de best
Briefly explained.
Huh?
No.
No what, may I ask?
