Fast Color Work With The Color Adjustment Filter In ON1 Effects

I love the Color Adjustment filter in ON1 Effects.  For landscape photos, adjusting colors brings a scene to life and adds depth and dimension. Using the Color Adjustment filter, I can quickly target and adjust specific color ranges, often without having to do any masking. If masking is needed, ON1 has a slew of masking tools that make the masking job easy.

In this photo of the Swiss Alps, I wanted three improvements to color. First, more color and saturation in the oranges of the rocky peaks. Second, increasing the greens of the rolling hills. And third, a richer blue for the sky. A series of 3 Color Adjustment filters handled these changes with no fuss at all.

The first two adjustments were as simple as adding a Color Adjustment filter and choosing one of the styles in the filter. The Fall style boosted the oranges in the mountain and the Foliage style made the rolling hills greener.

For the sky, I added a third Color Adjustment and used the Sky style. I also used Mask AI to limit the filter’s impact to just the sky. There is a blueish cast over the distant ridges that I did not want to emphasize. Mask AI limited the effect to the sky in just a couple of clicks.

On your next photo, when you need to boost colors, check out the Color Adjustment filter in ON1 Effects. You can apply it several times and quickly target specific color ranges in your photo - often without the need to mask.

I think 90% of my gripes with how modern anime looks comes down to flat color design/palettes.

Non-cohesive, washed-out color palettes can destroy lineart quality. I see this all the time when comparing an anime's lineart/layout to its colored/post-processed final product and it's heartbreaking. Compare this pre-color vs. final frame from Dungeon Meshi's OP.

So much sharpness and detail and weight gets washed out and flattened by 'meh' color design. I LOVE the flow and thickness and shadows in the fabrics on the left. The white against pastel really brings it out. Check out all the detail in their hair, the highlights in Rin's, the different hues to denote hair color, the blue tint in the clothes' shadows, and how all of that just gets... lost. It works, but it's not particularly good and does a disservice to the line-artist.

I'm using Dungeon Meshi as an example not because it's bad, I'm just especially disappointed because this is Studio Trigger we're talking about. The character animation is fantastic, but the color design is usually much more exciting. We're not seeing Trigger at their full potential, so I'm focusing on them.

Here's a very quick and messy color correct. Not meant to be taken seriously, just to provide comparison to see why colors can feel "washed out." Top is edit, bottom is original.

You can really see how desaturated and "white fluorescent lighting" the original color palettes are.

[Remember: the easiest way to make your colors more lively is to choose a warm or cool tint. From there, you can play around with bringing out complementary colors for a cohesive palette (I warmed Marcille's skintone and hair but made sure to bring out her deep blue clothes). Avoid using too many blend mode layers; hand-picking colors will really help you build your innate color sense and find a color style. Try using saturated colors in unexpected places! If you're coloring a night scene, try using deep blues or greens or magentas. You see these deep colors used all the time in older anime because they couldn't rely on a lightness scale to make colors darker, they had to use darker paints with specific hues. Don't overthink it, simpler is better!]
