Color can be one of the trickiest aspects of image processing. How do you get the right white balance? How can you dial in enough saturation to make the image appear lively and vibrant, without it looking fake or garish? How do you get the right hues? How can you apply color grading effectively?
In this live webinar I’ll demonstrate how to tackle this challenge as I take you step-by-step through processing one or more photographs, with an emphasis on handling color. I’ll cover all the basics, but also delve into the nuances that can give your images a rich, sophisticated look, including:
• Finding the perfect white balance
• Choosing the right profile
• Vibrance and Saturation – and why I often prefer other tools
• Adding tints with Color Grading
• Tweaking individual hues with HSL, Color Range, and the new Point Color tool to achieve richer, more vibrant color in a natural-looking way
People who sign up for the webinar will be invited to submit images to be considered for this demonstration, and I’ll use one or more of those in the webinar. And if you can’t attend live, the webinar will be recorded for later viewing.
The webinar is normally $27, but we’re offering an early-bird discount. Use the code LRCOLOR20 to get 20% off until Monday, January 15th. Click the link below to sign up!

Will the Mastering Color webinar be recorded? So I can view later, if I can’t attend the live viewing?
Yes, the webinar will be recorded and available for later viewing for people who sign up.
I’m trying to purchase the mastering color webinar and it is showing the wrong telephone number by which to get a code.
Huh. You shouldn’t need to get any code. Can you tell me where you are / what your screen looks like when it asks for a code? Are you in PayPal? (Might be best to email me rather than posting this in the comments: michael@michaelfrye.com.) If you’re having trouble paying with PayPal, it might be better to use a credit card. There’s a little button underneath “Select Payment Method” that lets you switch to paying with a credit card rather than PayPal.
Hi,
I signed up for the webinar but can’t seem to find the older two recordings you mentioned for new members. Can you point me in the right direction?
Thanks for signing up Thomas. To find the previous webinars, sign in to the Education Center with the user name and password you created when you signed up for the Mastering Color webinar. You’ll find the previous webinars under the “More Training” menu.
Oops, completely forgot to look for an answer. I expected an email notification and then forgot about this – sorry. However, I looked again now, and there is no “More training”. The menu options are Courses/Webinars/Forums/Support/About/Mainsite. Under Webinars, there is today’s Mastering Color and I can access Reducing Noise. All others result in “Oops! You need to sign up to view this page”, although it says “Free to Education center members”.
I changed the menus to make the webinars easier to find. I just changed some permissions, so you should be able to access those older webinars now. You might have to log out, clear your browser cache and cookies, and log back in. You can find instructions for how to clear your browser cache and cookies with Safari and Chrome here:

Thanks Michael, everything’s fine now. And great webinar yesterday. I learned that there’s still a lot to learn 😉
So many controls I hadn’t discovered yet…
Glad everything is working, and glad you enjoyed the webinar.
