Selective colour in Photoshop - Quick Shot 07

Name:: Jessay, Winnipeg, Canada
Question:: Hi Gavin, Can you explain how to make a color splash in the photoshop.In a Big frame only one person in color and the rest in B&W.

Colour popping, selective colour, colour splashing... Many names but one technique which never seems to go out of fashion.

I expecting a few comments along the lines of "That's so easy... or, show us something more complex..." and so on, but before you post a comment just remember there was a time when even YOU didn't know this technique.

By the way, this video is also available in HD which is great if you watch the video in full screen mode. Have a look and tell me what you think.

Thanks for that Gavin, it's a more efficient way of doing it than I have been using.

I knew how to do that already but I watched just so I could listen to your lovely accent. :) (I'm from the USA)

Thanks for the post! I am new to Photoshop and found your video extremely easy to understand and was able to successfully replicate the effects demonstrated.
