TK8: Working With SCREEN and MULTIPLY Blend Modes (Practice Image Download Links Provided)

[@StephenEhrlichPhotos]

What a great TK Friday. So many helpful tips to try on my images. Thanks Dave!

[@martingjsmith]

Hi Dave - Thanks for another excellent video. You continue to reveal some wonderful ways to use the TK8 panel

[@TheGregodaca]

Full of tips. I like it because I not use very often the blend mode. I learn a lot. Thanks Dave

[@pauloricardoferreira2841]

Great tips, Mr. Kelly! Thanks for always share all you get from this Tony Kuyper's excellent toolbox, the TK Panel. Best regards from Rio de Janeiro/Brazil.

[@micheldominique9583]

Hello Dave very good tutorial, the association of the TK8 plug-in with the Screen and multiply modes are very effective

[@stevehayre2697]

This is photoshop week with many good courses, but I played this TK Friday 1st because I learn more from this than any of the other photoshop courses.

Great job I love the TK8 Friday's

[@robertrc8852]

Superb tutorial. Loved the tips and your knowledge of the TK8 panels is awesome.

[@gordroberts53]

Another great video, in particular, I found the still life edit double vignette very helpful. Thanks for sharing!

[@mikejohnston9113]

I really enjoy these videos. You are always showing new techniques and creating beautiful images. I wish there was a running document somewhere that lists all these tips and techniques. For me there are two many to remember all the time. Thanks for explaining the tool and thanks to Tony for the tool.

Awesome tips ‘n tricks,,,TK8 Panel is so versatile!

[@johnbarney8051]

I always download the images and then make the changes myself BEFORE watching how you do them. As good as I think I'm getting, you never fail to add something new. Shrinking the mask & adding the feather is a particularly excellent tip that I didn't see coming. I am amazed how I ever got along without you & the TK8 panel. Thanks, as always!!

[@stanleyjacobson2617]

There yah go!!! Another hidden gem......the double vignette!!!!!!.....it is sometimes hard to recall the more complex uses of the TK8 panel as they are not needed for every image....however I vignette many images and so this is very very helpful.....

[@samelogio7441]

Great tutorial. I will definitely make use of these tips.

[@brucesorrell3647]

You knocked this one out of the park, Dave ! So many good techniques packed into a single presentation. Many thanks for all that help. Slainte !

[@chepo1956]

This was a wonderful presentation today, Dave. I loved the technique in the water scene with the formula to lighten the darker area of the sea, plus the saturation adjustment selecting the 2 colors using the mask calculator; I didn't know you could do that. TK Fridays is becoming what some people refer to in the TV world as "must see TV". I guess I can apply that to The Joy of Editing with Dave Kelly.

[@londeweese1105]

Loved how you edited the pears still life---GOOD JOB Dave!

[@ShaileshSharmasolan]

Learnt something new today,I have been using the TK pannel for a while,and Dave you always manage to add a new dimension.... Thank you Dave 🙏

[@stephendemailly]

Just magic love it 👍😍

[@geoffreykingston4866]

Another outstanding lesson. You are really exploring and extending the capabilities of the TX8 Panel and pushing it far beyond those early videos. As you say 'I Love it". Now going to work on the images and transfer some of the techniques to my own. Thanks for another Friday treat and love your enthusiasm.

[@emilebaudot904]

Hi Dave…I’ve been using the screen & multiply blend modes for a while, though I’ve been using the mask the mask method. However, I shall now experiment with the methods you’ve shown today. Really loaded TK Friday… Great work…!

[@jvalenta47]

Excellent tips as usually, Dave! I have been using TK for few years but I always learn something from your TK Friday. Thanks!

[@carlosestanguiortega6485]

Thanks

[@johnnycampos6992]

Thanks Dave for sharing your time and knowledge with the use of this extraordinary tool (TK). I have seen and bought many tutorials on the subject, however it is with YOUR tutorials that I feel that I am really learning how to use it. I'm already anxious and waiting for the next tutorial, because I'm sure I'm going to learn something new. Greetings

[@patrickkeeley2675]

Thanks!

Thank you Patrick.

[@mikeswoods]

Great tutorial (as ever) Dave 👍

[@christinewilkins4680]

I enjoy your tk Friday videos, thanks very much. One thing I would like to see is -since selections are always 8bit is there any difference in using 8 bit selections and 16 bit masks? I know you use selections to selectively paint through to get what you want. Does the fact that taking a 16 bit mask and turning it into a selection makes it 8 bit affect the final results?

[@thejoyofeditingwithdavekelly]

I don’t find any problem doing it and have always been satisfied. Try this as a test and see if you can notice a difference. Apply the Mask to the layer and put that layer in a group with a black mask and mask the mask. Check your result. Then shut that layer off. Next make the same adjustment and this time paint through a selection and compare the results and see if you notice any difference. I do it both ways and don’t really seem to notice any difference.

[@TonyKuyper]

The TK panel takes care to keep everything 16-bit throughout the mask-making process. Even when you use the mask calculator, it's all 16-bit throughout the calculations process (provided you start with a mask). So, until the point of actually outputting a mask, you're always working with16-bit masks. There are no intermediate 8-bit selections anywhere as you create, modify, and perform calculations using various masks generated by TK8. So, when you output the a 16-bit mask as an 8-bit selection, it's generally the first time anything 8-bit has been introduced into the process, and so it's a first-generation selection. First-generation 8-bit selections are indistinguishable from their 16-bit parent masks. It's only when you start intersecting (or doing other calculations) using multiple generations of 8-bit selections that you start to get a deteriorated final product. So, the 8-bit output selections from TK8's rigorous 16-bit workflow should not be a concern. You can confidently paint through these selections and not damage the 16-bit character of your image. That being said, it is possible to bring 8-bit selections into the mask-making process using the "My Channels" button, but TK8 will immediately convert these to 16-bit masks. As long as you're using a first-generation selection (like Select Sky and Select Subject), this should also not be an issue.

[@patrickkeeley2675]

WHEN I SELECT THE SUBJECT, THE DARK FOLD ABOVE TO THE RIGHT OF THE PAIR IS ALSO SELECTED. HOW CAN I REMONE THAT SMALL AREA FRONM THE SELECTION?

[@thejoyofeditingwithdavekelly]

I would use the Object Selection Tool. Just make sure you are in the subtract mode. If not, hold down the Alt or Option key to change it while you are removing the undesired selection. That's not the only way but it is pretty effective.

[@chepo1956]

Hey Dave, how's it going? I was watching this video again (I really enjoy re-watching them) and I have a question about the tip when you subtracted from a dark 1 mask a dark 3 mask to lighten a subject. My question is: Could the same be applied in reverse to darken? It might be a dumb question, but I wanted to throw it out there anyway.

[@thejoyofeditingwithdavekelly]

If I am thinking correctly I believe you can.

[@chepo1956]

@@thejoyofeditingwithdavekelly Could you explain how would you do it?

[@thejoyofeditingwithdavekelly]

@@chepo1956 I am not sure how to answer the question without actually doing it or if it can be done or if I am understanding the question correctly without going back and watching that part of the video to see what you are actually referring to. Maybe it will come up in a future video.
