Hard Mix blending.

Create a graphic hard-mix treatment.

Hard Mix thresholds each blended color channel. Here a monochrome portrait and midpoint source produce a moving black-and-white graphic treatment.

A prompt to start from

Use Tesseract. Create an editorial portrait study with Exposure type on the left and live creator footage on the right. Make the footage monochrome through an editable adjustment, then introduce a middle-gray layer using actual Hard Mix. The image should become a stark binary graphic from the blend formula, with the original portrait still editable underneath.

Tesseract plugins and runtime downloads are coming soon.
