Photoshop :: Photo Masking And Web 2.0

May 14, 2007

The photoshop I am using is CS3.

I was looking into developing my skills of Photo Masking and designing Web 2.0 layouts. With Photo Masking, I have no clue where to start. I've been trying to find some good tutorials but they are quite complicated. I believe it would be easier for me to learn "the action" of adding a powder layer or whatever than to download an action (which I can't find anyway). This would also help my knowledge.

I am thinking of designing a Web 2.0, corporate kind of website for my Dad (who owns a plumbing business.) However, because of his logo, which is an annoying shape and due to the nature of the business, I can't seem to think of any ideas and get started with a general layout before adding the glossy buttons, gradient backgrounds etc.

I think that a long running tutor would be better to help me with the Web 2.0 designing. All in all, it would be awesome for someone to help a budding "aspiring" designer get ahead of the game!

Any cool techniques or effects that you can do would also be awesome to be taught with someone as a tutor, rather than reading a poorly written tutorial!

An example of some work I have done in the past is here (Warning - Contains Partial Nudity). This was the main image of a Div Layer layout I made for somebody as a favour (clearly it is not a corporate website).

Photoshop :: Lightning One Part Of Photo And Having It Blend With Rest

Nov 23, 2013

In the attached photo of a spread from album liner notes, you may be able to make out some handwriting (I've outlined the area in red.) I'd like that area to be easier to read than it currently is when printed in a book project I'm working on. How can I lighten that area so the handwriting is readable, without making it feel too bright, and have it still blend with the rest of it's side AND the other side of the spread?

Photoshop :: Group Blend = Layer Blend ?

Oct 2, 2008

I have "group1" and inside that group, only one layer: "layer1". The blending mode for "group1" is vivid light and for "layer1" it's "normal".

Now, if I change "group1" to "pass through" and "layer1" to "vivid light" ... the result is completely different, while it should be the same, shouldn't it?

Illustrator :: Using Blend Tool To Blend Colour Between Two Objects To See Anchor Points

May 2, 2013

When using the blend tool to blend colour between two objects is there a way to see the anchor points so I know where to click the blend tool.   I realise the cursor changes when over one but its seems very cumbersome to have to move it around until it changes rather than click directly on one which I could do if I could see it.

Illustrator :: Blend Tool Not Making Smooth Color Blend

Dec 4, 2013

I'm using Illustrator CC (on a Win7 Pro machine) at a beginner level, probably halfway to intermediate. I'm trying to learn how to blend colors together for highlights of various types (skin tones, clothing, light on objects, etc.) so that when I'm making a graphic for a project I'll have a decent idea of which tool/technique is best for the specific effect I need.
 
I'm trying to use the Smooth Color option in the blend tool. Late yesterday afternoon I recall creating two ellipses (one of which was a solid fill and one of which was a gradient going from black to transparent) and getting a smooth color transition between the two. It was a much harsher effect than I was looking for so I didn't keep it. This morning, while trying to replicate the same thing, I seem to be unable to use smooth color between two objects if one or more of them has a gradient applied. I only get what you see below, which is a step between the two objects.
 
I've done searches and found multiple references to blending gradients in this way and have followed those instructions (create the shapes, fill with the gradients, then either click on the Blend tool and click on the center of each shape, or click on Object -> Blend -> Make) but I can't seem to get a Smooth Color blend if either object has a gradient applied. Am I missing an important step somewhere? I'm 95% sure I accomplished it yesterday and nothing has been changed since then.

Illustrator :: How To Use Blend Tool To Blend Two Different Art Brushes With Different Colors

Jun 26, 2013

I am trying to blend two different art brushes with different colors using the blend tool.  I'm trying to use two fixed-size line segments of the same length and then applying the two different brushes to those segments ( each art brush is a different color).  Then I want to blend them the regular way so their colors transition.  However, when I do this, the first shape is a different color, but all subsequent blend steps are the color of the second blended shape.  Why is this? It doesn't blend the colors for some reason.

Photoshop :: CS3 : Masking ?

May 18, 2007

Has anyone tried the Quick Select Feature ? I understand together with the Refine Edge feature, it makes the job easier to extract the background.

Anyone care to comment or throw some light when it comes to hair masking.

Photoshop :: Masking

Aug 4, 2009

I'm switching from Corel to Adobe and in transition I keep thinking ia have it and then I'm lost again. In CorelPaint, I could mask an area and then use a tool to add to or delete from the mask pixel by pixel or larger areas if I wanted by using a brush. I am REALLY good at it in Corel but can't figure it out yet in Photoshop. I can draw simple masks but not manipulate them.I hope this makes sense. I want to learn adding to and deleting a masked area. I looked at some online searches but here I am. In response to my last posting (another topic) I was directed to some tutorails and got it quickly.

Photoshop :: Pen Tool And Masking In CS6

Aug 5, 2012

In previous versions I could create a custom (vector) mask using the pen tool in 2 easy steps. Draw a shape then drag that shape to the image i wanted the mask on. Done.
 
This "feature" has been removed from CS6 and its extremely annoying. Or has it just become a lot more complicated to achieve this?
 
I know i can create a clipping mask using the shape layer but that requires another visible layer in the layers panel. Having "roto'd" 50 elements in previous versions in the same workspace gave me 50 layers (cleaning up the solid black shape layers after). In CS6 it gives me 100 layers.
 
I know i can select the shape as a selection and then apply a mask but that would make the mask a solid. I want to be able to move my tangents around etc. 100% non-destructively. 
 
I work 100% non destructive and yes, my psd's become very large but thats no biggie, my computer can handle it. I don't want to rasterize.
 
If you have CS5.5 or earlier versions, create a shape and drag that shape to the layer you want to mask, remove the fill layer and you'll see what i mean. Thats what i want to be able to do in CS6. Is this 100% gone from CS6?

Photoshop :: Masking For Video

Feb 20, 2013

I'm editing a video that contains two shots in which the set had to have black gaff tape around the perimeter of the floor in order to container a pool of liquid in a kitchen (see attached image, yellow arrows added). For budget purposes the scene had to be shot this way instead of allowing the liquid to go wherever and damage the set.

My question is, what is the best/simplest/most effective way to eliminate the tape from the scene and create a new background in its place? Luckily, the shot is entirely static and the tape is not too thick/prominent, so I'm fairly confident it can be done and done well. Unfortunately, I don't have an image from the exact angle without the tape, although I could potentially get one if that would be easier than recreating it in PS. I'm a beginning to intermediate PS user and this is a little above my skill level.

I'm running CS4 on a MacBook Pro. The footage is ProRes 422 which I can export as still images (jpg, png, other) to work on individually in photoshop (assuming this is the best/smartest method). Also, as you can see a character is in the shot and moves some but not a lot. There is a fair bit of the background that will be entirely the same from frame to frame. How best can I automate as much of the process as possible?

Photoshop :: Layer Masking

Jun 15, 2011

The image above is some text with various blending options applied ... well a part of it.

I have applied and outerglow and a drop shadow to the text. But, I want that gap to be filled with white and to have no drop shadow as you can see.

How can I achieve that? I assume with some sort of masking? I want to ensure the text can be resized so rasterizing and painting that area white is not an option.

Photoshop :: Masking An Image

May 27, 2004

I am having trouble filling the background when I put a mask on an image. It used to work, but now when I hit the fill button, it fills the background the color I want, but it also fills part of my image I have masked. It is about 50% filled.

For example, if I am putting a whitebackground on an image, the background becomes white, but the image also gets a white film over it. Even if I try and cut the image, it still adds the white film over the image when I paste it in.

Photoshop :: Masking In ImageReady?

Feb 25, 2008

I'm working on an animated texture which features a frame (think picture frame) that has text panning through it, but I don't want it to show up on the outside of the frame (picture frame). How do I make this text slide through the frame, but not show up on the outsides?

I guess to try and make it easier to visualize, picture a yellow smiley face ( > <) on a white background. Next, picture a red bar sliding from the right side of the image, across the smiley face, and then off the left side of the image. Now, imagine that the red bar does not

how they use lines to fade an image by incrementally increasing the height of the each line. Something like whats in this link. I'm pretty sure they are masking an object with lines with different levels of thickness but my question is how do i determine those lines....

I'm trying to create a V with one side of the V just horizontal lines.

Photoshop :: Masking 3d Composition

Jan 11, 2008

I've built this 3d model and i need some help compositing into the photo

the problem im having is that i need to keep the monkey puzzle tree and the bare tree infront of the building but apart from painting a mask buy hand i i'm struggeling to get any decent results.

Here is a quick mock up i did but i need to mask out the trees accurately

I managed to get the trees where they over lap the sky because the background was contrasting and consistant using the technique below but it removes the bottom of the building and only helped with the trees that intercept the sky line.

I'm using Photshop 6.
