https://i.ytimg.com/vi/H-z0j2jVka8/hqdefault.jpg



In this video, you’re going to learn EXACTLY how to professional movie poster designers create and apply rim light in Photoshop.

Thanks to my friend Lisa Carney for lisacarney.com for allowing me to share this technique!

Here’s a breakdown of what you’ll learn in this Photoshop Tutorial:

1️⃣ Create a Channel Pull. This technique will help you create the rim light by using the highlights in your image.

2️⃣ Use Blending Modes to Keep Everything Separate. Keeping things editable is very important. You will learn how to use Blending Modes to keep everything in its own layer.

3️⃣ Use the Color Balance Adjustment Layer to Apply a Color to The Rim Light. The color balance adjustment layer will allow you to apply an individual color to each tone of the image (highlights, midtones, and shadows)

  1. hello sir, i really like your teaching and i can understand it easily… thank you for all…
    but can you please teach one tutorial on landscape processing… ( like bobby joshi photography style )

  2. wow this is a cool technique thank you PTC for letting me know this amazing effect.
    Also please provide a quick recap at the end that will be awesome i think thank you

  3. Been waiting for a tutorial like this because i'm passionate at designing movie posters myself. It's great that you were able to get the help of a pro. I'm definitely going to try this out. I hope to see more tutorials from you about this field in the future.

    Good work! Keep it up! 👍

  4. First tutorial that kinda confused me and I have to go step to step in Photoshop to understand what is going on.. hmm

    And honestly the video thumbnail that shows half her face warm and half cold is way better and something I wanted to do for a long time.

  5. This technique seems to work well on images that are already lit with rim light so you can pull that value information from the channels. But what about images with flatter lighting without rim lighting in the base image?
