![]() The last white point selection is alright I guess, but I think it’ll look better with an exposure layer.Īnd we’ll add an Exposure layer (Layer > New Adjustment Layer > Exposure) and then go and move the first bar to the right until you’re satisfied. Like in the following gif, it looks wayyyyy too yellow, overexposed, and weird. Method 2 - ExposureĪnother way I like to brighten up a scene is by using an exposure and/or levels layer, especially if I can’t find a good white point in the scene and the curves technique looks odd. Now, this technique doesn’t ALWAYS work to brighten up a scene.

Basically Photoshop does all the work for you! Just play with it. I’ll demonstrate how this eyedropper works in the following gif. Here you could pick Rey’s shirt, but I ended up using the shine on Rey’s forehead here. Now, find the whitest point in the scene. With curves open, click on the third eyedropper down that says “Sample in image to set white point.” Okay, after you’ve sharpened your gif and you’re ready to color, add a curves layer (Layer > New Adjustment Layer > Curves) ![]() Method 1 - Setting the white point in Curves
