Dude. i've been watching your videos for more than a year now, I learned so much but the funniest thing is... I kinda never use photoshop lol, I mostly use premiere pro and after effects (I discovered your channel looking at tutorials for those softwares). But I just enjoy your tutorials because you're a really great teacher and it's also so instructive! Thank you for everything!
Bro, you have no idea how much I was struggling with sky replacement? Never knew it can be this easy. GOD BLESS YOU BRO. May your channel grow more and more. Keep sharing your knowledge. Thanks a tone.
That is one awesome tuvid !....that covers probably 99% maybe 100% of the instances where i need to remove backgrounds,, quickest methods I've ever seen...not often i have any complicated hair type ones but these methods will easily do the job for me...many thanks
I would love to learn about your process of making videos from start to finish. This really fascinates me and as someone who also makes tutorial based videos, i want to learn more and get better at it
Where were you?! I just loved your style and this video it's gonna save me tons of time! Ok. We will, probably, have to work a little bit on the edges, but the hard/heavy work is done so fast'! 'Boom' like you say! Thanks a lot and you have a new follower :)
Me as a 3D artist who used to work with Alfa maps for plants s always looking for some quick better results when it comes to the question how to cut out trees from environment without investing too much time just because it's just a texture but sometimes it's just pure frustrating in the result is pretty bad so i caught myself being Lidl scared of kind of this work. So yes long I did not take care match of this magic rubber tool but I will give this a try I think it's way much better than just masking out every kind of detail 4 hours thanks man and have a nice day.
I have to agree, ive watched a ton of other vids but this one overall is on a different level and as far as im concerned makes most of the other methods to do this pretty redundant...and whether the other methods produce better results is open to debate...they take a lot longer I know that much..
Wow thanks very much for making this awesome video tutorial I really am a huge fan of your and you are in my top five favorite content creator on RU-vid YOUR A ROCK STAR MAN. now tutvid I’ve got a question and request can you make a video tutorial on selecting a subject with very dark hair and removing her from a black background please. Thanks again brother for all your amazing hard work I greatly appreciate you.
Nice tutorial, I'm usually ehh on using destructive editing or even looking at the eraser tool but I'll look into this. With some extra steps you can use this with masks as well.
theres no reason you cant save layers at each stage to go back to..or even incremental file saves...i know it makes the overall files larger and or more files but when youre done you can always delete the extra layers and files....
Cool. Now all we need is similar erase brushes but as regular "brushes" that we can use on a mask! OR... ... click on the erased-background to completely select it, then move back to a new copy of the original layer and click the mask icon?
Hey Nathaniel! Great tutorial as always. Perhaps you could help me with one thing. When I'm at 9:13 I try to paint over the image although white color is selected I'm painting with grey color :( IDK why? Could help me with this one?
I have been using this method for many years and always create a mask or channel from the cutout. This works great and isn't destructive any more. It is just about creating the best mask possible.
one way to make this non-destructive could be to make a copy of the layer, and in one layer, use the eraser and cut out the background and everything, and then use that selection to create a mask for the original image and delete the destructive layer
Here's tip to turn those erasers into layer masks. Make a copy of the layer you are erasing and use your eraser method of choice. After the erasing is done, load that layer as a selection and then select the original unerased layer and create a mask from the selection.
Somebody should take the basic action of the background eraser tool and turn it into something that creates a layer mask. This seems like it should be sort of a trivial upgrade.
Someone please help....For some unknown reason, my eraser has begun malfunctioning. (And, yes, I have tried rebooting my computer, restarting Photoshop, resetting the essentials, resetting the individual tool, etc) The problem is this: When I erase any area of my image, PS automatically erases another portion of the screen, which I had no intention of erasing. Anyone got a clue??
I need to find a way to get on RU-vid's good side so they show my videos to everybody :D I think most of my stuff only shows up in people's subscriber box. :D
You can avoid the fringing if you zoom in more and take a lil more time adjusting the tolerance while making selections. He didn't do that in this video for quick demo purposes.
hey,you speak too fast in this video . try to speak slow that we understand what are you applying tool. your speaking is fast which unable to understand .
They work best on a single color. If you're shooting images for a composite or using stock you'll usually get a solid color background. They do also work without a solid color. I removed several skies in this video with multiple colors. The tools work on even more complex backgrounds, too. These tools work pretty well for what they're meant for.
This is very good. I have spent a great deal of money on Photoshop over the years. However, I refuse, after paying thousands, to pay a monthly rental fee! I resent their greed in refusing to give upgrades for which I would be willing to pay. It's really criminal. Now using Affinity. People should fight back instead of capitulating to Adobe's boundless greed!
5:30 If you choose "Sampling: Once" with "Limits: Discontigious" you can click on the blue and then just brush over the hair without having to zoom in. If you have different colors in the background just repeat it with the other colors. I use this method for many years and always create a mask or channel from the cutout. This works great and isn't destructive any more.
