Hi...

I am on a tight deadline and need to know how to emulate this effect (see attached). It seems to be emulating a type of film stock I think. I've tried bleaching out the highlights with curves and colorising but it's not quite the same.

Please can anyone help???

Hi...

Sorry - forgot to attach my attempt. Achieved using curves, colorisation and image/adjustments/photo filter.

Near but not quite!

Cross processed neg by the look of it. Nearly there just boost the contrast a touch, clip the shadows and also put more of cyan/green into the shadows. Cross processing also increases grain so you might want to do a an overlay of grain on a 50% fill.

Cross-Processing - Fantastic! I've found this tutorial and am about to give it a go.
