COLORFUL GIF TUTORIAL

Another tutorial! This time I’m showing people how I make colorful gifs, like the ones in my latest giset of Allison Argent from Teen Wolf. The tutorial is for doing it with gifs, but of course you can also use this as a ref for screencaps too. 

Just to remind you all I do not do beginner tutorials, so you have to have some knowledge of Photoshop before you try this. And this, refers to turning this gif: 

Into this:

First off, you’ll need a gif to use. I’d suggest just starting with the one I am using since that’s the best starting point. If you want to make your own and don’t know how, try this tutorial or this one. 

Now we edit. First thing I do is make a group called PSD and for this gif I made a few blank layers and colored black on the left side of the picture to erase the window in the background.

Next a Gradient Fill to add some light on the right side. My ending mask:

Subtle, but important.

Next add a black and white Gradient Map over the top at 35% opacity, set the blend mode to soft light.

Then a Levels adjustment layer, with these settings:

(0,1.06,255 - 0,255)

Download all of those, or just make the gradients yourself. When you add them to the gif make sure to set the blend mode to soft light.

Now make a new blank layer, pick the color you want (I used #c09f5e), and color lightly with a soft round brush on the right side. Here’s my selection:

Make sure to drown the opacity (60-75%) and set the blend mode to soft light.

Now either use hue/sat or just a b&w adjustment layer with 12% opacity and soft light blend mode. And add a Color Balance adjustment after that. I only subtly changed the midtones for this one.

This is how it should look so far:

Now enjoy a gif of adjustments:

blacks, 0,0,0,+11 - yellows, -27,+10,-8,0 - vibrance +9, saturation +6 - yellows, -16,-6,+12,0 - blacks, 0,0,0,+17 - reds,+3,0,0,0 - yellows, +5,+7,-31,0

Using this color #cdab64, with a new black layer, paint over some of the image. Lightly near the bottom of Allison’s chest and shoulders. Stay away from the black areas on the left, and make it light! Here is the end result, selection and mask.

This is meant to add more vibrant color to the right side. 

Move on to more color balance, masked and colored like this:

Then I added some Curves, Brightness/Contrast and another Selective Color.

curves, 151,120 - brightness/contrast, 24,0 - reds, -24,+6,-13,0

I also noticed that third black layer from the top of the tutorial was too much black on Allison’s face, so I removed it. 

Here’s FINAL GIF!

(I should mention that I added some more shading on the left, specifically around her skull near where the window is, and the difference it subtle, but really great)

And that’s it!

As always, here is the PSD, and another few examples of other colors.
