    this is one of the best photoshop tutorial video I have ever seen, not only you were able to discuss the important facts, the flow was good, instructions were clear and concise, and the tutorial was very focused and true to its title, which is to teach the viewers how to isolate items properly. thank you so much!!

    Thank you for your time and knowlege!!! I love that you cram a bunch of info in this video. I love that you talk fast and get to the point. If you know photoshop it is no problem keeping up. If you don't hey, just keep rewinding and watch it over and over. That is the great thing about these FREE videos, you can go back as much as you need to and hit pause and learn at your own speed.

    Great video Nathaniel. I never tired calculations. I will certainly keep that in mind. I use to dodge and burn the layer mask at the edges to gently fix gray areas of a mask, but I will definitely try the soft light method. Thanks again.

  • @celsoaz2
    @celsoaz2 Pƙed 7 lety +9

    Usually i use pluggins to help me on that... mainly because i get photos of people using white color clothes on white background. i know that the best way would be to try to create some contrast between them at the time of the photo was taken, but sometimes i can't...
    but your tips were great!! the important thing is to know different ways to different needs.. i just like to share some things, like i don't like to use brush to refine a mask, i like to use the Dodge and Burn method. one method that i use to creat quick with lots of details mask is by duplicatin a image, create a white mask, select it and use apply image on it.
    thanks for Sharing!!

  • @FirebrandVOCALS
    @FirebrandVOCALS Pƙed 7 lety +4

    I used to be really good at Photoshop, back before the days of 'CZcams', when one had subscribe and to and read through photoshop forums for hours and hours.. honestly, but after not having used it intensely since version 7....... I suck at it now, I really can't remember even the basics, it's depressing :-(
    I used to have my own website which I built (which no longer exists ) dedicated to teaching Photoshop .... but now I can't do a fraction of what I used to do. It's true what they say I suppose "Use it or you lose it"
    Love these tutorials man.

      1. How did u get the transparent background?
      2. When u say paint over, what tool are u using to paint and what color are u painting with?

    • @sholombrummel3732
      @sholombrummel3732 Pƙed 7 lety

      Chitown 17​ if you are referring to the mask tool, these are the instructions. painting over is with the regular brush tool. To erase in mask, have your foreground set to black. To add have your foreground color set to white.
      Hope that was helpful, you can also search youtube for a "masking tutorial"

    • @chitown1732

      I just wanted to let you know that I'm only 13 and was able to tell you what to do without even checking to see if I was right. This proves that if you have a passion for something, and pursue that passion you WILL SUCCEED. You can see my work on my youtube channel called BruMedia Design.

    Very helpful! Thanks for making this. What's your thought process for deciding which selection method to employ for a given task? Do you have a rule of thumb or mnemonic device you've kind of whittled it down to yet? I have a lot of practice to get better at PS and selections!
