In this GIMP 2.10.12 tutorial, I show you how to steal the color grading from any photo and use it or transfer it to another photo. This is a great way to create an "aesthetic" for your photos - or to have all your photos contain matching or similar colors and moods. I use a variety of built-in features that come standard with this free photo editor, including the Color Exchange feature, gradient map, palettes, and curves tools.
This is a great tutorial for beginner GIMP users and photographers to help improve your photo editing skills. All skill levels will enjoy this tutorial!

Quite cool. Just an observation, it looks like there is a small "hole" in the tutorial (unless I missed the explanation there somewhere). Up to about 10:50 there is no "Color exchange" layer. Then when we see the screen again at about 11:20, it is already there. Is that simply a duplication of the original image layer that is on the bottom?

@DaviesMediaDesign 5 лет назад

Hey - yes, I am very glad you pointed this out. It appears I made a mistake in the editing! I duplicated the original image layer, then renamed it "Color Exchange Layer." I am not sure how that portion of the tutorial got edited out. But great catch - thank you!

Really good tutorial, thank you. Being a beginner in GIMP, easy to understand tutorial-like these are a great help.

@TheOthersparktank 2 года назад

In recent GIMP updates, for the color gradient, the triangles are very different now. There are 5 black triangles. The first and last black triangles seem to be the min/max while the other 3 black triangles inside control low/med/high tones.

Great video Michael, this one is going to be super useful!

@ronlawrence5021 4 года назад

The biggest frustration for me isn't in learning the techniques Michael uses....it's in the fact that I think when Michael sees something, he's able to picture in his mind some new version with various aspects enhanced or combined with other photos to create a more interesting final product. It's that level of creativity that really can't be "taught".

@taliesinriver 3 года назад

It can be learned though, through practice.

@ronlawrence5021 3 года назад

@@taliesinriver I can "learn" to play basketball. But that's no guarantee I'll end up in the NBA. Human beings don't all have the exact same skills and abilities, all just lurking under the surface waiting to be developed. Some people will be able to outrun you no matter how much you train and practice. And some people have a creative ability that far exceeds the capacity of people who are not gifted in that area.

I’ve been waiting on this tutorial for GIMP for so long 😂😂

@DaviesMediaDesign 5 лет назад

Alas, it is here! I hope you enjoy it.

@HelloHiHola 3 года назад

Amazing knowledge - I think I'd like this even more if the changed image had more resembled a night shot with a full moon. Grading is so subtle to me but these two images are miles apart in mood.

@charlesdouglas9019 4 года назад

Around 5:30, could you explain why we need 5 colors before converting the Palette to Gradient? Thank you!

@marcossaraiva4245 5 лет назад

Great video!

@DaviesMediaDesign 5 лет назад

Thanks!

@ichaa3tech 4 года назад

Wow just seen the piximperfect tutorial and thought this cant be done in gimp . thanks man

@skybyte4me 4 года назад

Did you know what? this is so cool!

@MarcEspie Год назад

Small trick: found out you don't need to use the color picker tool. Instead, you can just click on the palette entries. This means you can do color-grading with extended palettes with slightly more than midtones/highlight/shadows (which I just found out I need on a tricky color-editing job)

@cosmo0080 5 лет назад

very cool

@Alexread94 4 года назад

is there anyway you can apply the same colour grading to multiple photos without having to individually colour exchange each image?

@TiagoChiaveri 5 лет назад

Que dica fantástica!!!!

@StrawberriPlays 4 года назад

Hey,this might sound silly but once you’ve taken the colours from the first image how do I then use it on more images in the future? Do I have to do the whole thing every time or does it stay saved in ur palettes?

@bereantrb 4 года назад

You've probably already figured it out, but the palette you created is saved and can be used again.

@yhl53 2 года назад

I want to start the course from the beginning, how do I do?

Funtastic

@VictorHugo-ei5xn 5 лет назад

3:12 A silly question: Has this option "Convert image to indexed colors" always existed in GIMP, or has it now come with this new version? This is the first time I see this function.

@ujagarsingh1906 5 лет назад

@Fable_o 8 месяцев назад

What do I do if the image I use doesn't get dissolved using soft light like it did on video in 10:37

@Orbitour 3 года назад

I have a problem, when I make it to Indexed Color Conversion, it show me maximum number of colors: 255, when I put it on 3 and press Convert after few seconds GIMP crash... Any ideas how to solve it? Thank you very much.

@taliesinriver 3 года назад

hopefully you've solved it by now, but if not, try lowering the resolution of the image first. I had the same problem with a large image and it worked when I made it smaller.

@ravenm1165 2 месяца назад

my shadows go to pure black whe I convert image to 3 colors from 8 bit..

@asyafiudin 4 года назад

@LuisDanielLucioQuiroz Год назад

@ZX9RinHollywood 5 лет назад

What's the point of turning down the quality of the jpeg save file? Is it just to have a smaller file size?

@DaviesMediaDesign 5 лет назад

For the most part, yes. This is useful when uploading to a website as it keeps the image from slowing down the performance of the web page. Also, many sites have size restrictions.

@shawnh8498 4 года назад

you forgot totally to tell us to create a layer named color exchange. I was trying for 10 minutes to get it to appear then rewatched you and from one scene to the next it appeared before you hit color exchange option.

@impshyco Год назад

It's complicated for nothing, I already have my color palette and my neutral Hald. Why don't you just explain how to put your gradient palette on a Hald?
