This video tutorial is excellent for new users or anyone interested in GIMP 2.10.22. It’s well-paced, beginner-friendly, and easy to follow along, so you won’t feel rushed. In this lesson, we’ll explore not just one, but two different ways to create eye-catching duotone effects that can totally transform your photos.
In the first part of the video, we’ll take a simple black and white image and use the Screen mode and Multiply mode to build up a duotone effect. This is a quick and creative approach that lets you see results right away.
Then, in the second part, we’ll switch gears and use a Gradient Map to achieve a duotone effect with even more flexibility. This method gives you the chance to fine-tune colors and really experiment with different styles, whether you’re aiming for a soft, subtle look or something bold and dramatic.
Both effects are awesome in their own way — one is fast and simple, while the other gives you more control and room to play. By the end, you’ll know how to use both techniques and decide which one works best for your project. Don’t be afraid to test them out on different photos to see just how versatile duotone editing can be!
Have fun experimenting with these two easy techniques — try them on portraits, landscapes, or even abstract shots. The more you practice, the more creative your results will get!
