I just did this for a branding thing i'm doing (fictional pie shop)
- I took an original photo, desaturated it.
- Made a b/w layer and set it to 20%
- and then i took a sepia tone and put it over the both of them set to multipy ( i think it was multiply)

I have messed around with de-sat and contrast but still can't get this post-reduction effect that's is a bit like instagram.
Anyone else know ?

sorry to be an ass, but to do that is basic basic photoshop work...

there are probably tons of actions out there too that will do a similar effect.

Try this.
Filter: Find edges.
Edit: Fade find edges and screen it about 40%
Duplicate layer 5 times. This bit's complicated so keep up.
Using the Hue selection Desaturate the first layer by -20 and give it -10 colour. Screen it at 15%
Repeat again with the second layer.
In the third layer go to colour select. Select all the white. Create a layer mask from this making all white transparent. Multiply 45%
In the 4th layer, repeat above but select all the blues and use the colour balance tool and remove the greens. Screen it by 25%
on the 5th layer you need to select yellow as your secondary colour and press Apple Delete. Overlay.Create a new adjustment layer/curves and maybe bring the top end in a bit.
Flatten your image. Duplicate the layer. Select effect neon glow. Multiply. Go mental.
Set this up as an action because you really will be using this a lot in future.
Thanks.

Come on, if you have just tried that above then god help whoever you're trying to get that effect for.

try this:
Filter: Crushed Blacks
if that doesn't work, logon to QBN and broadcast "DELETE MY ACCOUNT" ad infinitum.

Try this one.
1. Duplicate layer
2. Change blending mode to Soft Light
3. Image > Adjustments > Shadows/Highlights (i usually leave it the default)
4. Filter > Other > High Pass (usually use a radius between 2-3.5)
Don't know if this one is common knowledge but I think it's a good one :) Feel free to post your tricks as well.
cheers

There's probably a bunch of ways but here's how I'd it:
Use adjustment layers and blending modes:
- Hue/Saturation layer for brightness/hue adjustments.
- Add another 'Gradient' adjustment layer (like a gradient that goes from purple to orange). Set the blending mode to 'Color'.This will get you pretty close to this effect. Then just play around with other small tweaks (like edges, curves, levels, etc)

- a fucking gradient? really? lolmonospaced

you could just grab your old 35mm 70's Canon Rangefinder .... then shoot so you overexpose some old 35mm Kodacolor 100 film, leave it on the dashboard of your 73 chevy for a few days in the hot california sun, then develop it at a PhotoMat 1 hour lab... and pretty much get the same thing...
