This video is another general overview of the Full-Spectrum Gradient Map files and features that are included in the digital download when you purchase the product from the link above.
I will go over the basic features of the action set and the separate files which break down an image into various types of chromatic content that is re-colored with gradient-map adjustment layers so that you have direct control over the way those colors are blending back together to make the original image.
The video shows the test-image examples included with each file, and how the files have groups built up based on the divisions of chromatic points like Tints, Shades, Midtones, and further ways of dividing the more achromatic greyscale content into Warm and Cool greys for example. I will save more specific test-images of artwork and photos for other videos that go over one file at a time in more detail. Stay tuned for more exciting releases and developments and training videos showing all the ways I use these kind of documents in both my artistic creative work and my professional graphics and printing work.

Purchase the Max Chroma Master Colorizer Actions Here: https://payhip.com/b/MOhF
This video shows the limited FREE version action set of the Max Chroma HCWBTSGM Colorizer for Adobe Photoshop, and some Image Examples and ways to use it such as making color adjustments to an image or photograph, or extracting the color layers and merging them into fewer colors for making screen printing color separations. I explain more of the logic behind how the divisions of hue and tint, tone, shade work, and what is in the Master Colorizer action set available for purchase on the payhip website link above, such as pre-merged colorizers and expanded levels of tints, tones, and shades.
Also I show more examples of how to trick the colors for using in the automated Halftone Tessellation scripts available in the Max Chroma Color Blender free plugin pack.
Thanks for watching and stay tuned for more explorations of various image examples and extracting the colors into layers within Photoshop and other programs.

This video is another behind-the-scenes update showing the basic idea behind how I create the automations and techniques of extracting color gradients from an image and re-blending those as colorized layers or as Interlocking Halftone patterns.
I show how the updates for the Master Colorizer which will include the new Halftone Tessellator 2.0 actions will be free, and all updates to the Master Colorizer program will always be free for those who purchase the action set one time.
I explain some of the ways in which starting with the logic of color blending in color spaces or color models such as HWB, HCWB, and HCWBTSGM allow for going deeper into various levels of hues, tints, tones, and shades. By automating things in faster ways with as few steps as possible, and keeping an accurate method to how the gradients or halftone patterns will blend together, there can really be some amazing possibilities with converting images into just a few colors that still reproduce the original image with more or less of an exact original or an interpretation of the halftone artform for such uses as screenprinting.
Most of my work with these graphics colorizers and halftone conversions are about taking an image made from millions of pixels and colors of pixels, and reproducing it as accurately as possible or for making adjustments directly to the colors of an image, with a much smaller set of colored layers or halftone patterns. It becomes very useful for all sorts of graphics or printing purposes to do this, and I am teaching my techniques of how I create these actions and processes, because I am not simply just selling a product which does it for you, I also want to share and teach what I've learned along the way and as I continue to make updates and discover new techniques.
Thanks for watching and stay tuned for more Mad-Max Chroma Color Science Adventures!

Purchase ScreenTone DTF with the Halftone Auto-Prepper Actions: https://payhip.com/b/BoQRm
In this video I am showing how to install the ScreenTone DTF Edition standalone software for PC and Mac that comes with the Max Chroma DTF Auto-Prepper Halftone Action pack for photoshop, along with how to install the Photoshop actions as well.
I'm showing the latest updates now and how to load an image and get it to run the Auto-Color detection in both the ScreenTone DTF and the Actions, along with generating underbases, and all new Batch-Processing features to run multiple images automatically. The ScreenTone DTF program can now output alpha transparency and perform choke or trap of the top color or underlays, along with Solid White or Gradient White bases.
This is a long-form video going into the installation and how to use the various settings and tools between the standalone software and the photoshop actions, and I will be posting a short-form video just showing how to run it if you've already got it installed and know some ways to choose the settings you want. Stay tuned for all sorts of new examples and instructional videos and showing off what you get with the purcahse and life-time updates for this digital image background-halftoning software!

This video is an update for the HSB Color Layers Action to make it work without the HSB Filter and to have a version that works going back to Photoshop 7 as well as CS6 and Above.
This is a long video because I am basically explaining the process of creating the new action while I am building it and testing it for Photoshop 7 and CS6, how and why it didn't work in CS6 before, and the various features that allow the extraction of the HSB layers within different versions of photoshop.
To simply get the new action file update you can download it for free at this link: https://payhip.com/b/yHzf
When the action is updated on Adobe Exchange I will provide that link as well.
P.S. -- I usually try to go through the video audio and clean it up, reduce background noise, and remove some of the "lip-smacking" sounds I tend to make while speaking. This was a long video and I wanted to upload it quickly, so I didn't get to removing all of those "ticks" but hopefully it is not too annoying.

Purchase the Max Chroma Photo-Tessellator 2022 Pack Here: https://payhip.com/b/EUhMX
In this video I am teaching how to add more image resolution, halftone LPI, angle and shape options into the Max Chroma Channel-Seps Auto-RIP actions, and I create a new dot option for a 600 DPI resolution, 45 LPI (Lines Per Inch) Elliptical Halftone dot, and then set it as the new default for the action set.
I use an example color separation in the video where I show how to utilize the 12-hues channels for an Orange color in the separations, merging some of the other hues, eliminating channels that won't be used in the print, and then also I teach how to use the "Grey Underbase" technique and no black screen on a black shirt color, to create a simulated process color separation with the new 45 LPI elliptical dot halftone settings, and bring it down to just 6 screens - Grey Base, Red, Orange, Yellow, Blue, and Top White. Then I show the difference between running that at 600 DPI resolution vs. 1200 DPI resolution and compare the halftone dot shapes and clarity.
Thanks for watching and stay tuned for more videos showing all of the files and automations included with the Max Chroma Photo-Tessellator 2022 package and the various ways to use it on different kinds of images and artwork.

Link to Download the Hexagon Color Spiral PNG File in 16-Bit: https://payhip.com/b/i72p
This video is showing some more behind-the-scenes work in how I create some of the color wheel test patterns and art files that I use in my research and artwork based on color models like HWB (Hue, Whiteness, Blackness).
I also talk about using this file to make a custom color mask selection, which is in the following video (I split up the videos to have the creation of the color test file in just this video by itself, so the other video starts off right into the creating of the custom color mask).
I also mention how you can download this test file and other free files from my website without having to actually enter in a real email address. You can still download the free files I have available and remain anonymous. The only thing that payhip will show me is the city and country you are downloading or viewing the site from but it does not give me your IP address or anything else like that. If you use a fake email address it will still let you download the files.
This type of color work that I do is really a passion for me because it is kind of a hybrid between science and art, which are some of my favorite subjects.

Purchase the Max Chroma Full-Spectrum Gradient Map: https://payhip.com/b/VrbeM
Welcome to the Max Chroma Full-Spectrum Gradient Map!
This video will show the introduction and overview of the new Full-Spectrum Gradient Map actions and files for Adobe Photoshop that are available for purchase on my website at the link above.
The first 5 to 10 minutes of the video show the difference between a normal Greyscale Gradient Map in Photoshop and the new technique of remapping both the hues and greyscale together that allows the new Full-Spectrum Gradient Map to be possible.
The next few minutes of the video show the results of the various actions and smart-object files - how to install the actions and use the smart-object files to load your own artwork and start making adjustments to the colors.
Last in the video I go into some examples of how to use the gradient map adjustments on example images to make re-colorizations or color separations. The power of the gradient-map technique of re-coloring the original artwork is that you can now control and pick out any hues or greyscale points as your "color division points" to make adjustments or separations. This is much easier when your artwork or image has hues or greyscale ranges that you want to control in a custom way and not just from regular divisions like 6-hues, 12-hues, or 1, 2, 3 greys at standard division-points. Now you can extract any Hue angle and blend it to any other hue angles you want, and do the same for custom greyscale points, and the Hue and Grey ranges will blend together through the chromatic knockouts which you also have control over.
There is so much to get into with this new technique, so stay tuned and look for more videos coming soon that show the power of the Max Chroma Full-Spectrum Gradient Map on more images and artwork examples!
