Sheekstreak Posted December 21, 2015 Posted December 21, 2015 I'm looking for a way to apply a grayscale/black and white effect to a photo in a gradient; I.e. The top of the photo would be in color, and transition to black and white at the bottom. Is this possible? Quote
Staff Callum Posted December 21, 2015 Staff Posted December 21, 2015 Hi Sheekstreak, Welcome to the Forums :) I have made a video demonstrating how to do this you can download it here: https://www.dropbox.com/s/v0elhhuikhblz27/Black%20and%20white.mov?dl=0 I will also include instructions below. 1. Once I had opened my photo I went over to the Adjustment tab to the right of the Layers tab. 2. Then I chose the Black and White Adjustment and clicked the X on the pop-up window. 3. After that I navigated back to the Layers tab and Alt - Clicked the Black and White Adjustment layer this allows me to see the Mask rather than the adjustment. 4. I then switched to the Gradient tool [G] and drew a Gradient from the top of the Mask to the bottom and set one end to black. 5. Finally I clicked my Image Layer in the Layers tab to see the finished result. I hope this helps :) C Quote Please tag me using @ in your reply so I can be sure to respond ASAP.
