Monkey [manda]

I'm really excited about this week's topic.

I just went with my gut instincts without trying too hard and seemed to have a much easier time (hmmm - should be my new motto).





Things I've learnt:
CM3 is much nicer.
The tip last week for using C (in CYMK) instead of R (RGB) curves is quick.
Color pins rock.

Things I'd like to know:
Are there more lessons on skin tones in the future or shall I fire off with some questions this week?

Good skin tones.  The shadows are still too blue/  Be sure to alt-click in the shadows to see the blue cast.  Getting rid of the blue cast is usually a matter of moving the end point of the blue and green curves around.

There will be some more skin tones, but go ahead and fire away with any questions you may have.  There will be an example of how to recognize and deal with blown out skin tones, and how to use masking to isolate skin tones.
