I love these videos! It feels like a one-on-one tutoring. Truly appreciate the sharing of knowledge.
One of the best videos on yt for
understanding colour better ❤️
You told me you wanted fewer gear videos so I made this for you ❤️📷🎨
This video, combined with Ted Forbes video on arrangement of elements make for two amazing teaching lessons…. There’s an idea, maybe edit together a workshop book by all the big TH-camrs. I know I’d buy it. It would be informative and sentimental!
Thanks for doing this -- it was really helpful :) I think I'm going to go out and shoot tomorrow with a particular focus on color. Will be a good exercise.
Although I appreciate the analytical approach that Tony gives us, these highly creative instruction videos from Chelsea are pure information gold. This is the content I crave. I still want both of you to provide content, but I admit that a video from Chelsea gets me excited for all the right reasons.
That selective color layer tip at the end 🤯. I was unaware of that. Thanks for the great videos!
Dude.... Seriously. SERIOUSLY, good video!
Chelsea, great content! I’m a newer nature photographer. I’ve spent the last year “collecting” species shots. Mostly animal or bird portraits. I realize I need to up my games to understand more about design and art to truly create impactful images. So, keep these coming! I love your channel and content!
This was really informative. I didn’t think about how color can enhance mood.
Thank you Chelsea for adding informative "color" as an upgrade to another level.
I prefer this types of videos from you guys as opposed to the "X brand beats Y brand???". Also, thanks for posting this for free.
Yes, I am one of those! Thank you for this lesson! (this comment is after watching the first 20 seconds. But I know I'm going to learn from this, so THANKS!)
Thank you, Andy! I hope it inspires you to edit your photos and think about colors more
Superb lesson. Life changing. Thank you.
Thank you, Art!
Thanks for this Chelsea! I'm glad I stumbled across it. You guys packed a lot into less than a half hour. I appreciate the thought you put into this, as well as the masterful video/tutorials skills involved in making a clip like this. Respect.
This was great! Thanks Chelsea. You have a natural teaching style that's pleasant and engaging. Really enjoyed it.
Man... im in LOVE with Chelsea
I'm about 10 minutes in, you've already convinced me (slightly red/green colorblind) to shoot only black and white from now on. Fascinating stuff though. Lots to think about.
Thank you Chelsea for another great video!
Thank you, Ben!
Truly a great video, Chelsea! Important, and can help you in a lot of aspects of life (clothing etc). I learnt a lot of this (primary, tertiary, complementary colours etc) in Housing & Interior Design 12. I took it to impress/chase a girl as the females outnumbered the males 2 to 1 in this class.
It didn't work, but it helped my photography and colour matching incredibly. 😁
WoW! Very helpful. Before watching this video i think the only way to pop the subject is lens with a wide aperture but now I know a lot. Thank you a lot Chelsea🙏🏻🌹
Excellent, Chelsea; thank you.... I really welcome your channel's photography info. I do have both your main book and your Art/Science course but it is always good to see another take on it and this has really reminded me how important colour-manipulation is. Also, your reminder about colour gels (those pieces of coloured cellophane one places over flashlamps and even lenses) has me delving in a long-forgotten camera bag for mine. All the best to you both from a colourful UK (we even have purple grass - or shall soon!) :)
That's the videos I expect from Tony & Chelsea
This is a great video! Great delivery Chelsea. Worth watching over an over. Definitely made it to my “Best of the best” playlist.
Very helpful and informative, I really learnt a lot from this video! Thank you so much Chelsea, God bless and good luck!
Thank you. Extremely helpful. I’m going to try changing the colors on my subject and background. Bird against a more cluttered background than I would have liked
Super useful. I've already seen the application of colour theory but this video truly helped me starting to actually feel it instead of just "ok I know this exists, let me take a cheatsheet somewhere to follow". Thanks for the content.
Very nice overview from color theory thru postproduction! More of these videos would be a great idea! Thanks!
Thanks for the quick and easy to understand version :)
Just what I need to spice up my photography!
Heck yes, Chelsea day!
Thank you for making this! I have been trying to learn more about this very topic.
Wow, what a brilliant tutorial! Thank you so much Chelsea.
Brilliant 😀 Really helped. Thanks Chelsea. You are stealing Tony's technical crown though 😅🤣
This is really valuable. I watched it straight through and was able to follow because I had a previous workshop that had color as one of the topics. It reinforced what I had learned and had started to forget. It even went beyond that. Can’t wait to give it a try. I have to reject my 47 years of journalism that what a scene actually looks like must be exactly what you should see in the photo. I had put my color wheel aside from the other class but will now get it out again-or buy a new one from Amazon if it is lost.
Thank you for the feedback, Alton!
It’s interesting g you mention your journalism background makes you strive for a look that’s true to what you see. I think a lot of tech-leaning photographers are the same way. Maybe now you can shift to thinking about what’s true to what you feel as an artist
Thanks Chelsea, this video is packed full of really important information that helps anyone make a big jump from average to great ;) I wish I had this info years ago
This is one of the best color theory video ❤
Excellent !! Now I know a tiny bit about colour and how to use that the create better pictures. Thank you !!
You're a great teacher, Chelsea.
This was an awesome video! great explanations and examples. Thanks Chelsea!
An excellent turorial. Thank you. I learned quite a bit.
Great video. 👍
I would love to see a follow up on how to incorporate black, white, grey, and brown into the concepts that you covered.
Your best video. I have been wanting this. Its not new info, but I don't know enough.
Thank you for your great videos! They really motivate me and help me improving my pictures.
This is the most powerful color scheme tutorial I have ever come across. Why don't photographers talk more about the dimension of color? Thanks for the unique video.👍
Thank you so much for this video! I learned a lot! 👍🏼🙌🏼
I'm only at 10mins so far , really liking this .
Is there a section here that covers getting accurate white balance / colour for skin tones especially for portraits ?
Sure!
one of the best videos of your chanel! i bookmarked it for reference and rewarch
Thanks for this video! Very informative.
Great video Chelsea, learned a lot from it, thank you
Very well done Chelsea~ thank you~
Thank you. That was really useful.
This was super helpful, thank you Chelsea
Awesome! Thank you so much for this. Very helpful.
Great lecture so helpful thank you! 🎨
This was really interesting! Thank you.
excellent video ... thanks for sharing Chelsea
6:12 -- Fantastic photo from the famous and original painting, by the way!
This is a very informative video. Thank you.
Great video!! Thank you, Chelsea!
This was really useful. Thanks!
Brilliant. Thank you.
Thank you Chelsea.
More videos with Chelsea only, she's refreshing and upbeat.
Get a life boy
Thanks for this lesson. Now I know what was wrong with all my images.
Your daughter made a great Vermeer girl. I took art classes in college, but some of the concepts I did not link to photography. Your video was helpful and interesting.
Great video. Worthy of playing repeatedly. Next time I will take some notes. By the way, Tony didn't appear in this one but I want to have a relationship like you two have. Perhaps in my next life. I failed miserably in this one. Lol.
Very helpful. Thank you.
Great Video Chelsea thanks - Changing the subject can you do a video on setting up a square space website?
Great video. Fantastic, thanks
Great video! thanks!
Great video, and super helpful :) Maybe these videos don't do as well, but personally I love them.
Good work keep it up🤠
Nice!
In movie colour theory, you're "supposed" to follow the 60-30-10 rule. One colour takes up 60% of the frame, the next takes up 30% and is complementary, and the last colour takes up 10% of the frame and consists of highlights/details. This is to make the scene look less cluttered and distracting. So, it probs works for photos as well :)
@Chelsea Northrup Is this the type of material included in the Art & Science of Photography Video Training?
So guys, watch and like this, since this is an awesome one and that is what TH-cam needs to be told ;)
What graphics tablet do you use Chelsea? For photoshop and graphics ?
What program is she using to show the different color schemes where she chooses 5 or so colors and it shows them to the right of the image on the color wheel and vertically all together?
Nice video, instructive
Also, is there a way to pull those colors directly off a color wheel to put into the photo?? 🤨(like how you did on the yellow one)
Great video
Τέλειο - Perfect!!!!!
What is the version of the Lightroom u are using? I couldn't see color grade on my own
Maybe someone has asked or maybe has been covered in previous videos but… one you have your RAW pic, where do you pick up the colors from? I mean… from the sea and rocks pic, where did you toke the colors? Why those? It’s something you choose whichever is the pic or those are some of the present colors in the pic and had made some aleatory selection? 🤔🤔🤔 please, help me cause I’m getting mad with all this instagram reels people applying this colors to a pic but no one tells you where they take them from. 🙏🙏🙏 thanks and sorry if that info has been shared previously.
One of the best things I learned about colour is to get pop you should maximize Colour Variability. Essentially you cool the white balance of warm tones (like skin) then increase saturation. Then you warm the white balance of cool tonal areas (like skies) and then increase saturation. It sounds counterintuitive but it works.
Hi Dris, sounds interesting. Can you refer us to a tutorial or article please. Many Thanks
This is very interesting Chelsea, thank you ! We want more of this haha :)
I don't know why, but the photos you show are really low res compared to the video :/
what program are you using?
I would love to see some lessons without post-production.
Great video!
Um i know this is a dumb question but what color won’t combine with black?
Hi I'm a new photographer how can I get in touch with you for private lessons
Now I can say I've studied color theory
Wonderful content about mindfully building an artful photograph. Refreshing not to hear your talking about photo-beauty, not camera talk and banter. Suggestion for future content: analyze the color in Kodachrome slides that makes those images instantly recognizable as Kodachrome and how to approach that look in Lightroom.
Great.
9:45 I am guessing the top right one is Tony. 🤣🤣🤣🤣
Nice video, btw!
I suppose this working only on Photoshop.
Great explanations of color theory but I don't think a personal website is necessary these days to hire someone with all the social media apps people are addicted too.
i would like to see you singing and playing the piano but this kind of videos are awesome too. you guys used to do this not just gear. i know this is not what call viewers.
You're my photography mum
First 🤪
Min 9:23 "...the only other colour is green..." where is the green? I don't see any.
first image only good shot is the original.
Goodness Chelsea, you look hot here!
