 Hello everybody, welcome back to another Adobe Photoshop CC 2021 tutorial in this one I'm going to show you how to darken or lighten a Section or part of an image as you can see here I've got this lady and she's working on her what looks to be a MacBook and it's all in pink and it's nice But let's say the MacBook I want it to be a little darker so I just left click on it and I here is an example of me having darkened it and It isn't perfect again There's a little bit of blur on the edges here and a little bit of spill But I will show you the effect either way So I'm going to delete that top layer if you're following along with me any image will do left click on the image Drag and drop it onto the plus icon at the bottom right now. We're working on the top copy now We want to go up to filter and there's something called camera raw filter We're going to be working with camera raw filters and it's very very effective So up here on the right side you're going to see here This is the properties panel or the edit panel pardon me and then underneath you're going to see something called an adjustment brush This is the brush we want to work with it is default set to plus So we're going to be making adjustments and you can increase or decrease the size of the brush using this little slider here So I'm going to decrease it down to about five and now I'm going to zoom in a little bit And we're going to work on the laptop So let's go to there and what do we want to do in this case? We want to brighten it. So we're going to increase the exposure a little bit and Maybe we will increase the whites a little bit something like that either way and let's get cracking So I'm going to left-click on it and you're going to see here that as I draw Around it. I'll go quickly here because I don't want to make this this doesn't need to be perfect Just teaching you the technique and then I'm just going to scrub it in and presto Not quite perfect, but it's pretty darn good and there we go We've now gone ahead and made it brighter. I'm zooming in a little bit You'll also notice here that there is a negative or erase section So sometimes I'll draw it in really quickly and then I'll erase a little bit more carefully so I'm going to just go a little closer to it and Something like that. Okay, and then there's a little bit spill under her shirt So again, this isn't to be perfect This is just to show you the technique and then you guys can dial it in as close and as Nicely as you want. So that's how you darken it if you want or pardon me brighten it If you wanted to change the color you could just change the temperature here. You could change the tint here I'll just show you here quickly so you can really get in there and Increase and decrease it as you see fit if you wanted to darken it just decrease the exposure However, I will note that as you decrease the exposure you are going to see little ball little splotches where it's not quite perfectly painted Just go back click the brush again and paint over as needed and press all that's how you darken it That is it for this tutorial guys. Thank you for watching That's how you brighten and darken footage or part of an image in Premiere or part of me in Photoshop Thanks for watching. I'll be back soon
