Blend Mode Explained

Blend modes determine how the color overlay interacts with the original image:

• Overlay (Balanced): Most versatile blend mode. Preserves highlights and shadows while adding color. Darkens dark areas, lightens light areas, applies color to midtones. Best for general colorization - works well with most images and intensity levels. Maintains good contrast and depth.
• Multiply (Darker): Darkens the image with color overlay. Multiplies pixel values, making images richer and moodier. Light areas become tinted, dark areas become darker. Great for dramatic, moody effects, vintage looks, and adding depth. Use lower intensity (30-50%) to avoid overly dark results.
• Screen (Lighter): Lightens the image with color overlay. Inverse of multiply - adds luminous, ethereal quality. Dark areas become tinted, light areas stay bright. Perfect for dreamy, soft effects, highlights enhancement, and airy aesthetics. Works well at higher intensities (60-80%).
• Soft Light (Gentle): Subtle, natural-looking color application. Gentle version of overlay with softer transitions. Makes subtle changes that feel organic. Ideal for natural-looking color grading, portrait enhancement, and when you want color without obvious filtering. Safe choice for most applications.
• Color (Strong Tint): Replaces image hue with overlay color while preserving luminosity. Creates strong color shifts and dramatic hue changes. Converts entire image to chosen color palette. Best for artistic effects, strong branding, or monochromatic color schemes. Use moderate intensity (40-60%).
• Luminosity (Preserve Color): Preserves original colors, minimal tinting effect. Maintains image's existing hues with slight color influence. Useful when you want to preserve the original color character while adding subtle warmth or coolness. Produces most conservative results.

Color Intensity Guidelines

• 0-20% (Very Subtle): Barely noticeable tinting. Adds hint of color without obvious filtering. Good for natural enhancement, professional photography, or when you want plausible deniability of editing. Maintains original image character strongly.
• 20-40% (Subtle): Noticeable but gentle colorization. Creates mood without overwhelming the image. Perfect for professional work, real estate, portraits where natural look is important. Adds atmosphere while maintaining realism.
• 40-60% (Moderate): Clear colorization effect. Balanced between original and tinted appearance. Ideal for social media content, branding, creative projects where color effect should be obvious but not extreme. Default sweet spot for most applications.
• 60-80% (Strong): Dramatic color overlay. Image is heavily tinted with chosen color. Great for artistic effects, bold statements, music visuals, and when you want unmistakable color grading. Original colors are significantly altered.
• 80-100% (Very Strong): Intense colorization, near monochromatic effect. Almost completely replaces original colors with chosen hue. Use for extreme artistic effects, bold graphic design, or creating specific color-themed collections. Original image becomes color template.

Preserve Original Brightness

This option maintains the luminosity (brightness) of your original image:

• Enabled (Recommended): Keeps original brightness levels while applying color. Prevents images from becoming too dark or too light when colorizing. Maintains contrast and detail visibility. Best for most applications - ensures your images remain recognizable and well-exposed.
• Disabled: Allows blend mode to naturally affect brightness. Color overlay can darken (multiply) or lighten (screen) the image based on blend mode. Useful for creative effects where brightness shifts are desired, or when using screen mode for intentional lightening.

Creative Colorization Ideas

• Golden Hour Effect: Use Warm Orange preset at 40-50% intensity with Overlay mode. Simulates sunset lighting on any photo.
• Cinematic Teal: Use Cool Cyan preset at 35-45% intensity with Overlay or Soft Light. Creates popular film-grade aesthetic.
• Vintage Film: Use Sepia or Vintage Gold at 50-60% intensity with Multiply mode. Replicates aged photograph appearance.
• Moody Blues: Use Blue preset at 40-50% intensity with Multiply mode. Creates dramatic, cinematic blue-toned mood.
• Instagram Aesthetic: Choose brand color, use 30-40% intensity with Overlay mode for consistent feed appearance.
• Neon Effect: Use Bright Cyan or Purple at 60-80% intensity with Screen mode for glowing, neon-like appearance.
• Earthy Tones: Use Green at 25-35% intensity with Soft Light for natural, organic environmental feel.

Combining with Other Effects

Layer colorization with other processing for advanced results:

• Colorize + Brightness/Contrast: Apply colorization first, then adjust brightness/contrast to refine the final look and enhance depth.
• Colorize + Color Channels: Use colorization for overall mood, then fine-tune with individual RGB channel adjustments for precise color grading.
• Colorize + Blur: Apply subtle blur after colorization for dreamy, soft-focus effects with cohesive color.
• Colorize + Grain: Add film grain after colorization to enhance vintage or film-like effects with textured appearance.
