Combining filters
- [Narrator] One really cool thing about filters is you can combine multiple filters to create custom effects. Let me show you what I mean. Let's say I want to make this image half grayscale so I want to add some mood to the image. So I go and say grayscale 50%. The problem is when I set grayscale to 50% I'm pulling too much of the color out of the image. So the monkey which has this very powerful color on its face doesn't pop out as much as it did before. To fix that I can go in and mess with some other filters. So I go and bring down the contrast, leave grayscale at 50%, and then also increase saturation to 140%. What happens when you add saturation is you take all the powerful colors, all the vibrant colors and make them more vibrant. In that way the reds and the blues and all these oranges pop out even though the image is still a grayscale. So we get a much more detailed image that has a lot more stuff going on.…
