In this tutorial we’re going to build further on the standard Anaglyph Effect we’ve created in Part 1.

Experiment 1: Vibrance

With a Vibrance adjustment layer we can make the Anaglyph less bright.

• Set the Vibrance on a negative amount (I dit -51)
• You can leave the Saturation on 0 or even decrease the vividness of the Red/Blue.

Experiment 2: Different colors.

In this experiment we’re going to stack some adjustment layers on top of each other.

• 1: Color Lookup: Candlelight.
  • Opacity: around 37%
• 2: Gradient overlay:
  • Color 1: #290a59 (very dark violet), position: 39%
  • Color 2: #ff7c00 (a pure orange), position: 100%
  • Linear, 143°
    • Bleding Mode: Color Dodge, 36%
• 3: Color Lookup: Foggy Night
  • Opacity: around 74%

Variation:

• Gradient overlay opacity: 20%
• Second Color Lookup opacity: 100%

Experiment 3: Cold.

Add a Color Lookup adjusment layer and set the color on Crips Winter.
