I remember learning about tonal range in art class in high school. I don't know a lot about tonal range related to film and photos and editing yet, but I'm excited to learn.
I'm very happy to hear that you learned something new. When you put the tips into practice, you'll improve the production value for your YT channel & IG feed.
That is a good idea for a tutorial. I’ll look into it. For now, you haven’t mentioned the program you use so try this for Photoshop 2024: Adjusting image color and tone with adjustment layers 1) In the Adjustments panel, click the tool icon for the adjustment you want to make: ◦ For tonality and color, click Levels or Curves. ◦ For adjusting color, click Color Balance or Hue/Saturation. ◦ For converting a color image to black and white, click Black & White. 2) In the Properties panel, adjust the adjustment layer tool settings. Adjusting image color and tone in Camera Raw 1) Choose File > Open. 2) In the Open window, select one or more camera raw files, TIFFs, or JPEGs, and then choose Camera Raw from the Format menu. 3) Click Open. 4) Use the controls in Adobe Camera Raw to adjust the settings. You can use the Adjustment brush to apply edits to specific areas of the image. Enable editing of JPEGs and TIFFs in Camera Raw 1) Choose (Windows) Edit > Preferences > Camera Raw or (Mac OS) Photoshop > Preferences > Camera Raw. 2) In the JPEG and TIFF Handling section of the Camera Raw Preferences dialog box, do any of the following: • In the JPEG menu, choose Automatically Open All Supported JPEGs. • In the TIFF menu, choose Automatically Open All Supported TIFFs from the TIFF menu. For Lightroom to apply local adjustments: 1) Select a photo to edit in the Library module and press D to switch to the Develop module. To switch to a different photo in the Develop module, choose it from the Collections panel or the Filmstrip. 2) Select the Adjustment Brush tool or the Graduated Filter tool in the tool strip of the Develop module. 3) Choose the type of adjustment you want to make from the Effect pop-up menu, or drag the sliders: Temp Adjusts the color temperature of an area of the image, making it warmer or cooler. A graduated filter temperature effect can improve images captured in mixed-lighting conditions. Tint Compensates for a green or magenta color cast Exposure Sets the overall image brightness. Applying an Exposure local correction can achieve results similar to traditional dodging and burning. Contrast Adjusts image contrast, mainly affecting midtones Highlights Recovers detail in overexposed highlight areas of an image Shadows Recovers detail in underexposed shadow areas of an image Whites Adjusts the white points in a photo Blacks Adjusts the black points in a photo Texture Smoothens or accentuates textured details in your photo. Move the slider to the left to smoothen details; move it to the right to accentuate details. When you adjust the Texture slider, the color or tonality does not change. Clarity Adds depth to an image by increasing local contrast Dehaze Reduces or increases existing haze in a photo Hue Adjusts the hue in a photo. Select Use Fine Adjustment for precise adjustments. Saturation Adjusts the vividness of the color Sharpness Enhances edge definition to bring out details in the photo. A negative value blurs details. Noise Reduces luminance noise, which can become apparent when shadow areas are opened. Moiré Removes moiré artifacts, or color aliasing Defringe Removes fringe colors along edges Color Applies a tint to the area affected by the local correction. Select the hue by clicking the Color swatch. The Color effect is preserved if you convert the photo to black and white. Other effects Additional effects are available for specific tasks, such as whitening teeth, enhancing irises, or softening skin tones. Note: If Burn (Darken), Dodge (Lighten), Iris Enhance, Soften Skin, or Teeth Whitening is not available, choose Lightroom Classic > Preferences (Mac OS) or Edit > Preferences (Windows). In the Presets panel, click Restore Local Adjustment Presets. 4) Drag the individual effect sliders to increase or decrease the values. 5) (Adjustment Brush tool only) Specify options for Adjustment Brush A: Size Specifies the diameter of the brush tip in pixels. Feather Creates a soft-edged transition between the brushed area and the surrounding pixels. When you use the brush, the distance between the inner and outer circle represents the feather amount. Flow Controls the rate of application of the adjustment. Auto Mask Confines brush strokes to areas of similar color. Density Controls the amount of transparency in the stroke. 6) Drag in the photo to apply the effect. A pin appears at the initial application point, and the Mask mode changes to Edit. For a Graduated Filter effect, three white guides represent the center, low, and high ranges of the effect.
Not exactly. It’s general tone vs. specific tone. "Tonal Value" refers to the lightness or darkness of a specific color or shade of gray; essentially how light or dark a single point is on a scale, while “Tonal Range" describes the entire spectrum of light to dark values present within an image, encompassing the difference between the darkest (say, shadows) and lightest (say, sunny sky) tones in a scene or photograph; essentially, the range of tonal values available within an entire composition. If you were looking at a grayscale image, the “Tonal Value" of a specific gray area would be its position on the light-to-dark scale, while the “Tonal Range" would be the difference between the darkest black and the lightest white in the entire image.
2:30 what a nonsense! While there are some videos on RUclips that *claim* film has a higher dynamic range, all they show is exposure latitude!! Which is also only true for highlights, film handles underexposure worse than digital cameras. For some films the DR is as low as 5 stops (EDIT: Kodak Gold about 7, Fujichrome Velvia about 5. Note, some films, like medium format films might have a very high dynamic range as well, but the better digital cameras can easily beat that.), while it is common for even older DSLRs to have 10 or more stops of Dynamic Range! I know this from shooting film as well, in cases where I underexposed almost nothing is visible in the dark parts of the image, while with my 10 year old digital camera I can recover shadow information 3 or 5 stops underexposed! The rest in this video seems right, but that is a lot of ads for this tiny of a channel and a relatively short video...
You're entitled to your own opinion and to shoot how you please. I've changed my opening and closing in more recent releases, but, I sell things to support my channel. These videos take a lot of time to make and they need to pay for themselves to make all the effort worth it.
@@jimcostafilms The ads itself are reasonable, I get that you need to sustain yourself, I think you can just shorten it. But apparently you did that...so keep on improving!
Always learning something new with you Jim!!
That's very nice to hear and makes all the work putting these videos together worth it.
Omg thank you for this! I had no idea what tonal range meant - I can't wait to try this in my pics and video!
I'm very happy to were able to learn something new.
