![]() What I hope the video shows is really the need to take your time and go into detail. Laborious but perfectly possible so give it a go! In this tutorial I used my iPad Pro, I just prefer the precision the Apple Pencil affords me but I had previously successfully colourised the 1937 photo below of my grandfather using a mouse on my iMac. I’m self-taught so my way of doing things may not be the same as someone else, it may not be conventional, but that’s the beauty of creativity, we have a goal in sight and find a way to get to it, the exact way doesn’t matter as long as you reach your goal. I must be one of the earlier users as I have been familiar with Photoshop for 25 years (man that makes me feel old). It is not particularly difficult, once you follow my lead it just takes time, care and precision and it makes for the best photography gift as well as a great way to keep yourself busy indoors during Winter, lockdown and the Covid pandemic.Īll you really need is a computer and Adobe Photoshop, I have an Adobe cloud subscription which costs me 10 quid per month and although a little pricey, I make full use of it and it benefits my creativity. In the video tutorial below I show you how to colourise black and white photos using Adobe Photoshop on iPad Pro with an Apple Pencil in a few simple steps. Now simply keep improving the image colors using this same technique and changing the layer opacity if needed to make a more subtle transition.I think I can speak for the majority of us when I say that somewhere… we all have an old black and white family photo we’d like to see in colour. To make a more subtle effect, decrease the layer opacity to about 75%. ![]() Select a soft round brush with a color similar to the jacket and paint over the grayed areas as shown. Step 10įollowing the same procedure, create a new layer with the blend mode set to "Color" and name it as "Jacket". ![]() Step 9ĭecrease the layer opacity to about 30%. Select a soft round brush with a red color and paint over the lips area as shown. Using a simple method we will improve a bit the lips, to do that make a new layer with the blend mode set to "Color" and name this layer as "Lips". As I said, this filter will not give you a perfect end result, but it will provide us with a very good base to work. With the new colorized layer made, you can now make any kind of color adjustments you want using any of your prefered methods (Hue/Saturation, Camera Raw, Curves, Color Balance, etc). By choosing this option, a new layer with the colorized version will be created and will allow you to make further adjustments. For this particular case, in the Output dropdown menu select "Duplicate Layer" and click OK. In this output option, no masks are made and the image manipulation could be easier. In the Output dropdown menu you can select different output options, but the Colorize Neural Filter mask some image areas to work, so a good option is to choose "Duplicate Layer". ![]() Step 5Įnable the Colorize filter by clicking on the ON/OFF icon. Step 2Ĭlick on the "Download" icon of the Colorize filter (if you haven't downloaded the filter already). Open your image in Photoshop, go to Image > Mode and be sure that your image is set to RGB rather than Grayscale.
