Hi everyone, in this video we are going to whiten the eyes, ready, bam...

then we're going to enhance the pupils, ready, bam, way too much, Dan...

ah, but it looks kind of cool, huh...

So I'm going to show you how to overdo it in Lightroom...

so that you can do it a little bit more subtly...

to make sure I'm selecting the eyes and then going...

doing the whitening and the enhancing, let's jump in.

So we've got two images we can work with...

called Masking Eyes 1 and 2, I'm adding it to my album...

we're going to open up this one first...

and we are going to go to 'M' for Mask, wait for people to do its thing...

I'm going to click on the person, and I am going to do...

probably the most common one is whitening the eyes...

so we're going to click on this eye, I don't know how to say that word...

Sclera, I just call it the whites of the eyes, that's the technical word...

let's click 'Create', oh look, red eyes, let's click it.

Now what I find, first of all annoying is the little, two little heads...

they're just saying there's a selection here...

that I've used from the People icon, or the Select New Mask people option...

I'm going to turn that off, 'Show Pins and Tools'...

and down here, 'Mask', I'm going to go down to...

now I'm just going to use the preset for whitened teeth...

I know it's like, it's not enhanced eyes, we'll do that to the actual Pupils.

Whiten Teeth is going to whiten teeth...

now it's probably going to go a little overboard for what you need...

but it's just really interesting to see what it's doing...

it's raised the exposure a little bit, what else has it done?

It's lowered the saturation a lot, so let's have a look...

I think that's all it's done, so let's have a look.

So I'm going to drag a little box around it here...

I just said 'Command +', and let's have a little look...

so before, after, before, after...

it just removes the color, brightens it up a little bit...

and remember, if it goes too much...

you can either drag the individual sliders...

just lowering this down a little bit...

or again, remember, you can lower the entire mask by the amount...

and just tone it down till it find somewhere heavy medium...

where it looks like realness.

Now let's do the opposite, let's look at...

looking at the eyes, enhancing those, and there is a preset for that one...

so let's create a new mask for this person...

and we're going to use the 'Iris and Pupil' this time...

let's click 'Create'...

scroll down to 'Mask 2'...

yours might say, Iris and Pupils...

I'm not sure why mine sometimes does, and sometimes doesn't, anyway...

let's go 'Preset', and there's one here called 'Enhanced Eyes'...

and again, even if you don't want it...

it's just really interesting to see what it does...

it again raised the exposure, what else did it do?

It increased the saturation, increased clarity...

clarity is a nice all-purpose image enhancer...

we'll look at it a little bit later in the course...

but it's just interesting to see what these presets are, and what they've done...

you can either back off of them or just do your own thing...

there's no problem going through and...

like for me, I feel like I need to lighten them up...

because it's like trying to do generic stuff, right?

It's not doing any artificial intelligence in there...

or at least not yet for those ones, it's just kind of gone to a preset...

it's the same for everyone, and I can see in there, in the shadows, it's cool...

it's getting a little bit vampire, zombie-esque...

but oh, I think I'm liking it.

I'll leave that one, what do you think?

Before, after, before, after, pretty intense...

oh, I think I like it intense, like that though...

but we can lower it down just to be...

to be on the safe side, before, after, nice.

The whites of the eyes looking really nice...

and enhance the color of the Pupil there as well...

as well there's a second version, I'm going to leave that...

for you guys to play around with...

so white in the eyes, there's two selections...

remember, the whites of the eyes and then the Pupil...

just to practice, nothing to submit...

just want you to have something you can easily get your hands on...

and have a play with.

All right, that is it for this video...

enjoy your playing with the eyeballs...

let's work at making a creepy Dan.
