Welcome to Pen Tool Photoshop
In this tutorial I’ll be using the Pen Tool
2
00:00:03,860 –> 00:00:06,100
to Path around this image,
convert the Path into a selection
3
00:00:06,100 –> 00:00:08,780
add a feather to the selection
and then apply a layer mask
4
00:00:08,780 –> 00:00:11,760
using that selection
That image will then have a transparent background
5
00:00:11,760 –> 00:00:14,440
Which could be saved as a TIF for print
or a PNG file for online
6
00:00:14,440 –> 00:00:17,620
I’ll go through the process now
and I’ll speed up the footage so it’s faster on the video
7
00:01:39,120 –> 00:01:39,760
So that was using the Pen Tool
8
00:01:39,760 –> 00:01:42,160
Creating a selection from the Path
and adding it as a layer mask
9
00:01:42,160 –> 00:01:44,480
Hope you enjoyed the tutorial and
I’ll see you in the next tutorial
