In this video I give you some practical advice for being more intentional about the colours in your images, and how to limit your colour space in Adobe Lightroom and Photoshop using the Hue, Saturation and Luminance tool (or HSL sliders). I also give you examples of complementary and analogous colour schemes from the world of cinema, and talk about what we mean when we say we are trying to achieve a 'cinematic look' to our photography.

You had me at “I will never sell a preset on this channel. I would rather take the time to teach you how to create your own presets.” 😎
So true
legit that's what finally made me sub
instablaster...
This is a game changer. The colour wheel was a stroke of genius to explain how it all works! Thank you Sean. I love your approach.
"If you can't explain it simply, you don't understand it well enough." This statement is so true for this video! 👍
For many things actually.
Apocalypse487 for everything really haha.
It applies to everyday life. I use this statement all the time at the work place =)
Maybe you just lack intellectual skills.
Those generalized phrases are practically always wrong.
Sean, when you turned your color correction settings off then back on I saw the deep level of design you bring to the details of your presentations. Only a superior teacher would come up with that rapid and incredibly effective technique to make your point. Then you explained the kind of impact you wanted the color design and lighting to convey to the viewer. I instantly saw it and felt it. While we viewers concentrate on the important lessons and techniques that you bring forth month after month it’s easy to lose sight of what a good teacher you are. Congratulations on another excellent presentation. As I have often commented Sean, be safe, be well, and continue to do good stuff. Given the world we’re currently living through that world needs you more than ever.
Thanks so much Roger. That’s very kind.
@@seantuck What panel are you working in? My edits panel looks nothing like that. I really enjoy your posts, keep it up.
Roger - well said.
Thanks Sean, excellent.
agreed. sean presented this well and i cannot look away at other gear tech videos.. i had to finish this. only sean does this
I have seen several color wheel/HSL presentations, but this is the most enlightening because you demonstrated the application with precision, rather than the generic washing of color that most others do. The point about split toning was the clincher. Thanks Sean. You are one of the most insightful photography presenters around.
This is why TH-cam is such a blessing this day and age. Because of content creators like you mate. Thanks
totally true!
Not really relevant to the video, but I dont mind a million ad-reads and Im so thankful that you don't spam youtube-ads throughout your videos.
This is so cinematic.
I've always felt Sean is one of the greatest and underrated modern day photographer. This video here proves why he is one of the best teacher too. Thank you Sean, your selflessness overwhelms amateurs and enthusiasts like me.
Thanks my friend. That’s very kind.
More power to you @@seantuck , Thanks again. Getting a reply from you made my day :)
"Oh just a selfie I took" - yeah, I can't get a photo like that with hours of prep. I can see how far I've come in the last couple of years, but there is still such a long way ahead.
As a colourblind artist, this is THE SINGLE BIGGEST challenge in my photos and videos. In fact, the most recent short doc I shot was the first time I've ever used colour-grading for video. I appreciate efforts of people like you trying to simplify things for us! 🙏❤
You’re a remarkable communicator. I enjoy just listening to you speak. And of course the knowledge you share is of great value.
My god , how lucky I am to listen to this guy . Usually this type of insights is behind a paid walled garden.
After 3 years of being Interested in photography and videography I never had such a valuable information of coloring until I watched this video thank you so much
li agree. id rather learn how to do rather then buying from someone or just "copying" a pre-set. creating your own vibe and style i think is really important.
As someone with deficient colour vision (Red/Green) I found this video to be particularly helpful and I have never seen it explained in such a way in any other video. Colour is definitely something I will experiment with more.
This was one of the most helpful tutorials I’ve seen, particularly the tip about whacking up the saturation to see more clearly the full range of colours in an image, then dialling it back to a more subtle level. Like you, I prefer a light touch to over-saturation, but this has inspired me to take more control of the colour palette in my shots, so thanks Sean.
Couldn’t agree more. The knowledge and experience to colorgrade photo or video is much more important than having lots of collection of LUTs or presets from other 'experts'.
With immense basic knowledge and EXPERIENCE, anyone can use ANY APPS to do the job according to their photos.
Thank you for all you do Sean, I find myself looking forward to these living room chats with you.
This is BRILLIANT. Now it all makes sense. THANK YOU Sean.
Thank you, Sean, for taking the time to teach our community. I, for one, was taken back by today's lesson. It was never explained to me as clear and concise as you did. I've always found myself sliding the scales left and right, never achieving the look I've seen on Instagram. Can't wait to try!
Honestly one of the best videos on the topic!
I like the way you talk, how you emphase syllabes and words. Its something special in it.
I've always loved your content, Sean! With that being said, this one, by far, is one of my favorites. Color explained in the best possible way. Thank you again!
You keep on delivering precious gems... I learn a lot from you, not only about photography but also about myself and how not to lose my identity as a photographer. Thanks, man!
This is so great! Really appreciate your tutorials that are driven by developing an understanding of making your own edits rather than achieving a specific look out of the box.
I’ve subscribed for years and this stuff is why! You’re such a great teacher!
OMG the use of the color wheel with the hsl was EVERYTHING!!! Exactly what I needed, THANK YOU!!!
Can not thank you enough Sean. This was something I needed. Have heard many teaching about colour harmony but you made it so simple to understand and apply it practically.
You communicate so well Sean. You've made a concept, that I never felt the need to understand, so clear! Thank you for your time, effort, and skill.
This is one the most helpful videos I have in recent times. Thank You so much!
This is the clearest explanation of the color theory I've ever seen and the one that actually made me understand it. Thank you so much, Sean. Love your content!
This is exactly why you are my favorite photographer, you’re always helping me up my photography game, Thank you!
Absolutely loving this video. Really bumped up my knowledge on the color wheel and how to adjust colors in both PS and LR. Especially in PS I have always struggled for some reason. Thanks a million. Means the world.
You seem to be thoughtful of my time when you make a video. Making sure you’re not wasting it. I love it! After watching this video i feel like I’ve learned a new skill that i can put to practice right away.
Thank you Sean! This was such an educational video. As someone who has been trying to edit photos but still does not have a very good handle on working with coolers this was super helpful. I am so grateful that content like this is available for free. This may be basics of color theory for photographers but some someone just starting like me it could not have been put any better
Thank you Sean for opening my eyes. This takes my pics into another level. Thank you for helping me become better! Stay safe and hope to meet you one day
So good to see content like this from someone who really knows what they're talking about but doesn't have a massive ego or is trying too hard to be funny ... just sharing knowledge. Thank you!
Sean, this is easily the best introductory explanation of color grading that I have ever seen. Thank you for your time, talent, and wisdom!
I think I just learned more from this 25min video about color editing in photos than anything else has ever taught me. Thank you!
Love your channel. Really helpful and down to earth. I like that you don't try to sell anything and also don't talk constantly about gear (like many other channels) and instead talk about photography itself. Keep up the great work!
Thank you Sean
The channel deserves Millions. I'll look forward to that day.
Protect your HIGHLIGHTS!
This was the best explanation of color I’ve seen. Thank you! I did not know how the hue worked with the color wheel.
Great, episode, Sean! I knew this theory but mostly applied to paintings and mixing colours. I really enjoyed how you took a particular hue into some other to give that emphasis and mood. Great channel, really!!
Thank you for being such a good teacher. Providing the knowledge required to create one's own vision.
This video can even teach how to teach. Such a bonus piece, Sean! 🙌 Btw after all these years spent learning photography never did I ever find a video that could make me understand HSL as properly as yours did. Thanks, man! ❤
Sean, just made it simple. I never understood colors and color grading, but now I do. ❤️ Thank you, boss. You're the best.
Masterfully done, and that's just Sean being Sean! Thank you.
I love your videos Sean. Thanks for everything that you put into them. I always learn very valuable info that I don't find anywhere else.
This has got to be my favourite photography channel. Great video Sean!
The lightbulb really clicked with this video. Thank you for the best illustration of this concept I’ve yet to see on youtube., I feel like I can finally see the color paths in front of me.
Thank`s, Sean. Your videos is such a great source of inspiration for me. And what I value the most, is your sincerity and opennes towards your audience!
Hey Sean, I have watched probably a hundred videos on color wheel, but as usual, yours have no competition!! You are an inspiration. I am a learning and development professional myself, but watching the way you deliver even complicated topics so simply and effectively, I get to learn new ways to teach from your videos. And I am beginning to understand photpgraphy a whole lot better. Thanks man!! 🙏🙏
I was struggling with colour editing until I saw this video. Thank you so much Sean for enlightening me and for sharing your knowledge in such a clear and thorough way 🙏🙏🙏
Thanks man, this video is great. I appreciate you taking the time to make it.
I was always a visual person and always loved art and photography, but lately I've been busy with other things and was losing touch with the visual aspect of my being. Watching your videos really inspires me and makes me want to get into photography again. I am taking random photographs every now and then but I hardly do anything with them. I did play with the HSL sliders before but I felt like changing too much would be "cheating" (I know it's not the right word). I think now I will give myself the freedom to do whatever I want and see what I come up with. Thank you for all you do Sean. Absolutely love your content. Stay safe.
PS: I love those philosophical videos of yours too. Do share with us more about what you're thinking lately. I started to miss those videos already.
This is one of the most useful and one of my favorite videos you've ever done. Just outstanding.
Really like this video. I haven’t seen an explanation of editing color like this one and I appreciate it - same goes for your skin tone and dodge/burn videos, info in there I haven’t seen anywhere else and presented in a very understandable way. No presets, no “hacks.” The rest of your videos are great too but these have been the ones I’ve found most helpful, thanks!
This video is pure gold.
This is one my favorite shows you've produced. Thanks for the help!
The best Color wheel video out there, period.! Thank you so much Sean .:)
Brilliant video Sean. Well judged - not too long or short. Informative and with a clear message. We have come to expect nothing less from you!
So beautifully explained! Thanks Sean!
Sean, you just gave me the necessary tools to do exactly what I was looking to do! YOU ARE UNIQUE & STAND OUT A LOT FROM ALL THE OTHER TH-camRS! Thank you so much, keep doing what you are doing!
Thanks Sean... very informative and awesome delivery as always. Was like watching a modern day Bob Ross when you were working on the edit of the blue sky / structure! :)
thanks. it's a very informative tutorial. I was looking for this exact thing. ❤️❤️
Such a simple and to the point explanation! You are helping me immensely to scale up my game. Thank you so much, Sean.
This is a master class. Period.
I can’t thank you enough for the information in this video . I’ve watched several videos but non was as genuine and informative as urs .
Thank you for your kindness, time and effort
Wow thank you sooooo much, maybe it is repeated a million times all over the net, but this is the first time i gather all the info I needed from one only source.
You’re an amazing teacher. This is my favorite photography channel, for sure .
Really fantastic tutorial, HSL has been something I have struggled to really "get" for years now, and this simplified it to a tee.
That's one of the best video I've ever seen on TH-cam so far. Thx, man!
Another great video, de-complicating things. Love it.
This is the first video I listen of you, and I really love how you present the information. You make it really fun to learn about it. It definitely inspires me to learn more.
These past months I've been struggling with teal and orange color but with this video I fully understand it now. Thanks mate
This is the best video on the topic. I've been watching variations of HSL and color theory all over the place and this is the most comprehensive one. @seantuck is superb
Thanks so much for all of this Sean! A tremendous help in understanding all of this.
I truly loved this video and how well you explained the things in such a simple and approachable language!
I have been playing with HSL for some time now but could not explain or fully understand how they worked and this example on Photoshop just clicked! So simple yet so powerful explanation, thank you for sharing it with us!
Immediate sub! This is the kind of top notch quality photography teaching that's sorely needed in TH-cam. Breaking down the artistic creation process and infusing it with just the right amount of science & technology, providing powerful tools that unleash the maximal creative power of an artist. Your photography tutorials are by far the best I've seen in TH-cam.
What a time we are living where this kind of content is free 🙈 Thank you!!!
This is such a good video, I watched it like 10 times this year! Love it!
What a masterclass... such a simple way to explain it and encourage creativity and originality. Thank you Sean!
Mind blown, thank you. Can’t wait to play.
OMG! Suddenly it all makes sense!!
It is absolutely the best video available online for color grading and correction. I have been trying to learn this for about a year now and in just half an hour I understood everything. Thanks a lot Sean.
Thank you (Sean Tucker) for educate us about colors .
Great tutorial Sean, as someone who’s really trying to workout how to use lightroom properly I found this incredibly helpfull. It is refreshing to find a creator who isn’t all about reviewing gear. Thanks again. Take care and stay safe.
This is so helpful thank you Sean. I probably wouldn’t have been ready for this 6 months ago so I’m glad I caught it!
Hi Sean, you are easily the most articulate photographer out there. This IS a game changer. Thank you so much 👍
Sean being sean...Crisp, honest and helpful 👍👍👍
One of the best introductionz to working with color and limiting the color palette to produce mood. Great job
Bloody brilliant as always Sean!
Finally I understand what hue does, thanks Sean !!!
Thank you for this, ordered a quick color wheel to help visualize it while making these choices. A master class in being deliberate in creating a unique look, thank you again.
This is one of the best photography tutorials I've watched. Thank you.
this is the 10th maybe video on this channel I'm watching and I can't stop. Thanks for all the information given here ❤️
Wow, I never understood how hue works before, this was an excellent explanation. The color wheel made it so easy to understand. Many thanks!
This is the greatest explanation/visualization of what you're adjusting with HSL. Thank you! 🙏🏻
