One of the best videos i have seen. Great beginner video. Excellent use of the white, black, grey to explain each blend mode. This is a great base for people to work from as they grow into more advanced use of blend modes. Well done.!
Thank You, another great video. Blend modes has always been experimental with me, you video helps explain what each does. Now, it would be great to see another video showing the most popular blend modes and how they are used with real pictures. i.e. sky replacement etc. Thanks again for all your time and information.
you missed it ..... There are 8 blend modes that I’ll be referring to as the “Special 8.” These blend modes behave differently when Fill Opacity is adjusted, compared to when standard Opacity is adjusted. The blend modes that aren’t members of this Special 8 group react the same to both Fill and Opacity changes (assuming there are no Layer Effects), but with these Special 8 blend modes, 40% Opacity will look different than 40% Fill, or 30% Opacity will look different than 30% Fill, etc. For all of the other blend modes (the modes that aren’t part of the Special 8), 40% Opacity looks the same as 40% Fill, or 20% Opacity looks the same as 20% Fill, etc. This is an important concept to understand, because it can extend the capabilities of these blend modes. For example, the Hard Mix blend mode usually doesn’t look all that great, but when you adjust the Fill Opacity for this mode, you can get some great results. The blend modes that are members of this Special 8 group are Color Burn, Linear Burn, Color Dodge, Linear Dodge (Add), Vivid Light, Linear Light, Hard Mix, and Difference. for color burn and color dodge and the others you missed the import ant point completely . These 8 blend modes change the equations when you adjust fill.

"Scroll down to the bottom of the page to "Blend Modes Explained" to find the PDF download." I don't see it.
It's one of the most complicated things to explain if you ask me. You did a great job explaining this and showing how the different modes work.

I'm definitely going to need your notes. Right now I click a blend mode until I find one that looks right.
I suppose this was very very hard to explain. Thank you!
I have been looking for a video that explains these blend modes (for me in Final Cut Pro) but they are hard to find. Thank you!
thank you master&expert,motivating me in many ways
How do I get the two pictures seen as layers? I open two pictures but cannot find out how I move these pictures in the layers box.
I found it: command c command v.
Thank you for a good explaining.
Darken and Darker Color did the same thing. Any other differences?
I find that everynow and then I need to review these blendmodes
Great way to demonstrate.
