[using color channels]

Genji_Kell and barninga:

 

thank you for your help in figuring this out for me.  unfortunately,

my innitial posts to this forum seemed like they didn't appear for 

a few days, so my trial period ended before i was able to see if i could get it 

to work for what i needed it for, oh well  ....  so while i appreciate you posting this information 

for me, i can't use it, but am sure if someone else is doing tri chrome photography and is hoping trying to figuring

things out before plonking the $$ down to purchase the app, this will be helpful to them.  

 

cheers!

[using color channels]

i found this tutorial for technicolor emulation

 

and it is great !

 

 

BUT, i import my own R G B "strips" the narrator  speaks about .. ( its just panchromatic film that is R G B filtered )

what i typically do is copy each imported file and drop them into their color channels.

with AP there are extra layers / channels when i go into channels,

would i paste my self made color strips ( R G B ) into the pixel layers or the channel layers ?

( i've done both and neither worked )

 

in other words, in the tutorial, the narrator makes his own color "strips" by making 3 pixel layers, and 

going into each color channel and removing the other colors, and adding CMY values ...

since i already have the stripped images ( b/w film exposed with  R G B filters  ) 

i dont' need to do those extra steps .. there is no CMYK involved

 

any how i might i drop my files ?

 

thanks !

ps.  after i posted this post, i cut and pasted 3 files from a bw >> color image i made
( and have converted successfully into a color image by other means )
into AP, but it didn't do anything but present me with a b/w image   :(

["save for web"]

hi

 

in another image editing software i have been using

there is a single step "save for the web" and it allows

a user to size an image at 72dpi ( for example ) and specific pixel count or inches ( like 8x10 )

and when one "saves for web" it crunches the image down to a very small kb size

with good image quality.  when one does it with affinity photo, it takes a whole bunch of steps

 

would there be a possiblilty to make a "save for the web" option for saving images ?

it will save a good deal of work for the end user.

 

thanks !

excellent !  i will  :)

[Save for the web and color channels]

hi, 

thanks for your help !
i guess i am used to the easy way out

with the other program i used for years

where you just clicked on "save for the web"

and it compressed things super small.

after reviewing the video on saving

it looks like it will be a handful of steps,

do you think there is an easier way for me to do this ?

for example, i can save a 5x8 image as a 72dpi jpg at "10"

and it will be something like 150kb, but if i save it with "save for the web" it 

could crunch down to something like 40k ...  i wish there was a "pre-set"

because i HATE uploading images to various places ( website, blog & fora ) that 

aren't super small.

 

sorry to ask again,

but if i drag and drop an image in to color channels can i stack rgb channels as i 

am doing in PS ?  or are color channels not setup the same way in AP ?

 

thanks !
 

[Introduce Yourself]

hi,

im john and im a freelance photographer who works with both film and digital stuff.

i learned about this software just the other day, and thought i would give it a whirl.

 there are only a few "tools" that i ever used with the software i have been using ( 20 somethnig years )

hopefully i will figure out where they are here or a work-around, and be a very happy camper .

 

it looks great so far !

[Save for the web and color channels]

sorry if others have asked these questions, i haven't found them in my looking through the questions and answers forum.

is there a way to do super small jpg web-compressions?  in the other software i have been using there is something called "save for the web"

and it allowe me to make really small saved images for web-use.  

 

also, i am looking for a way to open a "new image" and have color channels to drop b/w color stripped ( RGB ) files into.

i looked but couldn't find anything, and thought it was called something else.

 

thanks !

john
