Blending Modes Explained – The Complete Guide to Photoshop Blend Modes

Do not go away because it is told that is for photoshop, because in FF blend modes are the same

I have found this tutorial that explains how to use the blend modes that are included in FF (Filter Forge), that as far as I know, they are the same as the ones included in Photoshop, so it does not matter if you have photoshop or not to learn how they work, as it will work the same in FF

In FF instead of layers you have the Blend mode component that will mix two sources with the selected blend mode, and you can use if wanted multiple blend modes components combined

As far as I remember the blend modes in FF are not used much in FF filters, so I wanted to put this here to help the people that do not know how to use them

I know that is very bad that FF does not have a drop down option to choose blend modes BY NAME, or instead an opening window (as it happens on presets) and you have to awkwardly work with a slider of numbers

You may have worked with Blending Modes in the past, and it was probably more of an experimental process for you. The purpose of this tutorial is to show you how exactly how each Blend Mode works, so you don’t have to experiment as much. By the time you finish watching this Photoshop tutorial, you should have a strong understanding of how Blending Modes work and which to use to get your desired effect.
