Layer effects and layer masks are two of Photoshop’s most powerful and creative features. Problem is, they don’t always work as expected when used together on the same layer. And the reason is because of the way layer masks and layer effects interact, which is different from how masks work with a layer’s normal contents. In this video, I show you a couple of examples of problems you can run into when combining layer effects with a mask, along with the tricks you need to know to get your effects and masks to work seamlessly together. As always, I hope this video is helpful and thank you so much for watching!
