Create Light Anywhere!

With the unique way the Linear Light Blend Mode blends the pixels in your photos, you can craft the light in your photos, even if it wasn't there in the scene, to begin with!

Add Life in Your Highlights and Shadows

By design, Linear Light was built for dodging and burning and while it works great for the tonal variety of D&B it's even better when used with a hint of color to add life to your tonal values.

Effective Color Balance

The Color Balance Tool in Photoshop works very fast, almost too fast to be effective. However, when used with the Linear Light Blend Mode, you can put a governor on it and make the most of the sliders in the Color Balance Adjustment Tool

Color Grading

It doesn't matter what Color Adjustment Layer Type you throw at it, the Linear Light Blend Mode will outperform all others. Here we have three Color adjustment layers making this effect, Color Fill, Gradient Map, and a Gradient.

Complete Radiating Control

You may have heard of the Orton Effect, well combine that concept with the Linear Light Blend Mode, and you have a supreme recipe for success. Attach a clipped Curve to it and BAM! Amazing radiating glow effects in seconds.

Kinda Like HDR...

... but with a WHOLE lot more control! Using ACR as a Filter and a clever formula with the Linear Light Blend Mode and you have an incredible way to introduced heightened dynamic range in your photos. Don't worry, you can use masks and blend if to make it appear natural... this isn't 2012 after all!

You'll Get Actions... of Course!

I want to teach you everything the Linear Light Blend Mode has to offer, but I don't expect you to remember everything. There is a LOT covered in this course. In the last lesson, I will give you 16 actions you can use right now in your workflow!

The Best Blend Mode in the World:  Linear Light

It’s not often we think of a Blend Mode as being the best thing since sliced bread.  But, I gotta tell ya out of all Photoshop’s 28 Blend Modes, there is one that rules them all.  There is one Blend Mode that can handle any task you throw at it with unprecedented results.  It’s NOT Soft Light, it’s Linear Light!

For the last several months I have been documenting every task I have used the Linear Light Blend Mode with and the list is exhaustive!  I found that I use it with everything from Noise Reduction & Sharpening to Color Grading and Dodging and Burning.  Really, there is no other Blend Mode that is quite as versatile.

In this course I will cover all the ways I use the Linear Light Blend Mode.  I am 100% positive your workflow will change for the better when you start implementing the use of the Linear Light Blend Mode more often.

Frequently Asked Questions


Do I need a subscription to watch it?

Not necessarily.  I offer two options for viewing this course.  

1.  Elite Members can watch it on the site and download all follow along resources with their subscription access.  But the download of the video content is restricted on the site.

2.  You can purchase the course without a subscription and download all resources, assets, and videos.

 

What version of Photoshop do I need?

While the information in this course can work on any version of Photoshop, the panel will only work in Photoshop CC.  To get the most out of this course, I advise that you are running the most up to date version of Photoshop CC.  However, many of the items discussed in this course will be relevant in older versions of Photoshop as well.

Does this course come with everything I need to follow along?

Yes!

Blake includes all of his follow along images, actions, presets, PDF’s (if applicable) and or extras.  Some lessons have actions and images, some just images, others a PDF and some do not have any extras (usually the introduction and conclusion videos).  Everything you need to follow along is included in the course purchase. Programs, Plugins, and Software Applications are not included.  For example, if this is a Photoshop course, Photoshop is not included in your purchase.
