Often finding a research image that also matches the palette you're working in can be a daunting task. Luckily however, Photoshop offers a tool tailored very well to that specific situation. In this example, we'll be using two images. The first image:
represents the color palette we'll be trying to match. The second image: represents the image that doesn't quite fit into the palette we've decided upon. First, we'll open both images in Photoshop, and selecting the image we want to modify start the Match Color command (Image->Adjustments->Match Color). Near the bottom of the Match Color dialog we'll drop-down the Source option and select the image that represents the palette we're looking to match (in this case 'referenceimage.jpg'). Photoshop will display a preview of what the resulting image modification will be. Modifying the 'Color Intensity', 'Luminance', and 'Fade' options will vary the effect until the desired result can be achieved. You can also select a portion of the source image using whatever selection method you prefer and select 'Use Selection in Source to calculate colors' in the match dialog to restrict the source colors to a selection set in the source image.Technology tips for the theatrical design professional.
