Re: Cross-processing effect?

[Robert Croslin <bcphoto@mac.com>]

The easiest way I've found to get a "cross-process" look is to simply adjust
the hue in the "hue and saturation" menu in photoshop. Then just bump the
contrast way up. I believe most of what you have seen in magazines cross
processed is Agfa Chrome ISO 50 pushed 1 stop and processed C-41. It looks
real contrasty and exhibits some really funky colors - especially blues and
yellows.

Hope this helps,
