I bought the Lightroom Editing Masterclass and already finished it and let me just say that this is nothing compared to the rest of the course, the knowledge and amount of effort that Pat stored into this Masterclass is insane, especially in the Building a visual aesthetic and my favorite module which is Editing sessions where Pat edit images from his own portfolio and it's 100% unscripted, it's about 6 hours worth of knowledge where he puts everything into practice. This Masterclass is probably my best investment yet and I still believe that it's really underpriced knowing that there are a lot of courses that offer less with a higher price. Thank you Kay!! I'm glad I came across one of your videos about 6 months ago, the amount of things I've learned from each TH-cam video you upload is unmatched by any other TH-camr out there, I'll forever be grateful!!!
3 and a half years of using lightroom on a daily basis and I have never properly understood how the RGB part of the tone curve works until now.. Thank you so much for this one sir!
This is the shortest and clearest explanation regarding the curve I´ve ever seen. Thanks a lot for sharing your knowledge and making it look so simple!
Thanks for this Pat. I've been playing with the tone curve for a while now, not really know what I'm doing!! and I've watched plenty of tutorials on TH-cam but until I saw yours I remained fairly clueless. So now I understand it and can't wait to make something happen. Thankyou.
I recently learnt to use the curves and I got addicted to the blue curve ;) for tone correction and enhancement. I move my points while pressing the alt key to moderate the variations
So, if one were to make adjustments using the tone curve and THEN make adjustments using the sliders in the basic panel, would the reverse order have any negative effects on the image? Also, if the tone curve (excluding RGB) is best for creating contrast what is the point of/difference between using the contrast slider? Often times I see tutorials in which the instructor is using both. Is that just redundant being redundant or is there a benefit in using both?
AFAIK the tone curve is applied after the basic sliders. Also the contrast slider I think just pushes highlights and shadows, or basically everything outwards from the centre of the histogram towards the outside in a more basic way, but the tone curve allows you to edit the contrast in a more precise way based on specific tone areas. I think it's important to bear in mind that you don't HAVE to use all of the sliders or the tone curve, just whatever works for your image. But if using one over the other works for you, keep doing that.
Do the RGB curves and the Color Grading Panel do the exact same thing or are they entirely different tools that can get you the same results? Thanks for the video!
How do I get that exact set up on the right side like yours? I'm on normal Lightroom which only shows me the 'Curve' and nothing like the global histogram etc.
After watching so many of Pat's videos, I just can't help pronouncing 'Paaaarticular' every time I use it in my daily life. Then I tried to find justification of where this pronunciation comes from, but I failed. It comes from nowhere. Ref: th-cam.com/video/9XMaHqfpfyU/w-d-xo.html

Nice review 👌
I’m interested in your class Pat, do you upgrade class as new tools are upgraded in LR?
same. I almost finishing the course, and the quality is insane. Every beginner photographer should get it. srsly

Remarkable way of tutoring. Natural born teacher.
Pressed that like button before the video finished because you were explaining this better than anyone I’ve ever listened to. Thank you!
Great lesson, Pat. Making it oh so tempting to join your master class. It’ll happen one day
when you're ready, we'll be ready for ya :)
Simple, straight forward breakdown of tone curve thank you 🙏
glad you thought so!
I love seeing the growth of your channel Pat. Keep it up.
thanks mate!
Wow, I learned so much just from this short video! Well done!
thanks for watching!
... Pat's been a blessing to me... I can't stress enough how grateful I am 🙏🙏
thanks for watching!
I always start editing with tone curve in Snapseed. I never really understand what I was doing but I always get the look I'm looking for
Now I realise how to use tone curve precisely !! Big thanks sir

I finally learned what the tone curve ACTUALLY does. Thanks!
Thank you for this video! Definitely the most complex part of editing.
I love your vids! such a great teacher and im learning so much from you! Im happy to come across someone like you! 💎
Awesome breakdown, Pat. Informative and straight to the point. Thank you!
The best lesson I've seen to date. Thank you
I recently learnt to use the curves and I got addicted to the blue curve ;) for tone correction and enhancement. I move my points while pressing the alt key to moderate the variations
I always use the color curves. It makes it so easy getting the colors i want
Thank you, Sir! You're the bestt
my pleasure :)
Thank you so much, Pat!
Great tutorial on the tone curve. Thanks 👍
Very helpful. Thanks!

I’m still trying to find this answer

no problem!
Thank you as always
my pleasure :)

Pat. One question: What version of Lightroom do you use because it looks completely different than mine! Great vid!!!
Of course the newest version Lightroom 2022, If you had subscribed to Adobe Lightroom, it will update automatically.
@@verumregis5015 Thank you so much!
Lightroom Classic
I’m interested in your class Pat, do you upgrade class as new tools are upgraded in LR?
Hey Pat as a professional photographer is it possible to work with Lightroom and have an ok understanding of Photoshop?
This is very helpful! thank you
my pleasure! thanks for watching
Dou you still have a link to your course I have lightroom mobile
Can you explain me, why i should'd just use the contrast Option?
Can you make a curve tutorial for Photoshop? Or it's the same concept there as in Lightroom?
Thank you for this! :)
thank you
my pleasure! thanks for watching
So what can you achieve with the tone curve that you can't with the sliders (and colour wheels, HSL etc)? Nobody has ever explained this!
100K Soon
hopefully!
Aren't the blacks before the shadows? You said, shadows, then darks.
nice

Don't let your door open again
I find tone curve so confusing. It dors nothing but make my photo worse
These google commercials are overwhelmingly annoying.
handsome boy
Use it on a person..
If you compare this to any other curve system, especially in something like Davinci, this things is such absolute garbage.
