Add creative color effects to your images by color grading them in Photoshop using gradient maps! You'll learn how gradient maps work, why they are perfect for color grading, and how to use a gradient map to give your image a more cinematic look by replacing the photo's original colors with the colors from a gradient.

I also show you how to combine gradient maps with layer blend modes for different results, how to save your custom gradients as presets that can be quickly applied to other images, and even how to drag and drop gradient maps from one image to another!
