In this tutorial we will work with the Cutout Lab. At some point when working with images to discover that you want to isolate an image from the background. Consequently, it is necessary to create what could be a mask, and this will allow you, the object used in a variety of compositions.
Fortunately, PHOTO-PAINT is a set of tools, you can use, of which the publisher is an abstract. We will start cutting the image from the background at a timeBut before doing so, I would like to draw your attention to the objects floating window on the right side. You'll notice the background image, an object that is the subject of green and I have a copy of the background, we like our work, or if we use a layer filled with the creation of the mask.
The purpose of the layer of green, when we finished the mask and left the Section Editor. What I do is, at this point I enlarge and look at the edges of the mask, I can check againstThese high-contrast background to ensure that there are no artifacts or holes in the picture. Once done, I completed the disguise.
At this point, I turn on the Top background object (layer) and make sure it is enabled. And now we are ready to access the editor section. One last point, when you cut out a picture, you can use a mouse, but it is bulky and uncomfortable, a bit 'like painting with a baseball bat. I recommend using a graphics tablet instead. I use the Wacom 6x8Intuos 3 tablet.
So let's get into it. The first thing to do is go to Image: Cutout Lab. Cutout Lab dialog box, we are ready to mask the image, but to arrive before we are in it, we zoom in close so we can see what we do. Me on the button to zoom in and zoom Cactus.
The next thing to do is define to make use of the Highlight tool and its use for the benefit of all cacti. The standard point is a bit 'too little, so I choose a little', 19 So now I'mHighlight the edge, which is a little 'color and background on the cactus. And this you must create a mask. When working around the thorns that there is a little 'bulky with the description of this size, the choice of the format of the spring. If you mak a mistake in the photo, simply click on the eraser tool and remove what you did.
Make your way around the cactus, use the Pan tool or the scroll bar, the definition of the border. In some cases, you will notice, in which theDetail is important. In this case, Image Of course you do spring up 'smaller.
Once the edge of the mask, we are ready to zoom out and use to fill in preparation for the preview. To zoom in to see the whole picture and click on the paint bucket. The fill color is blue, which is the default, but it could be any other color. Now click in the middle of the cactus to fill it.
Now we are ready to create a preview image. At this point theThe background is the ninth, giving us a tab control model when I click on Preview. Now we want to enlarge and begin to clean the board. Opaque gray, matte black or opaque white: In some cases, the checkerboard pattern can be a bit 'difficult to treat, so that we can choose between one of several options. In this case, we will start with a dull gray and I zoom in the picture.
Now you can see what happens with the edge of what some artifacts and discomfortthe edge. Parts of the mask appear to have holes in them. We need to tidy this up through the editing tools that add or subtract information. For starters, I click Remove on the instrument details, select the format, and start removing some of these artifacts. You need to do this around the entire image. You can do a little 'after the fact of this film with high contrast, but I try as much as possible to do that here. In the event that portions of the mask irregular appearance on the inside, orincomplete, Add detail on the instrument, click to fill the gaps.
In some cases, the gray mat we could not get enough information about what will happen to the board so that we can move to a different option, such as matte black. This allows us more of what happens at the edge, and even if there are holes to be seen. This is what is needed around the entire image.
Now that the cleaning is completed, we are ready to cut, which you can then use other compositions.There are three options: cut, cut, and the original image or as a clipping mask. For our purposes, I want to be cut and the original image, then click OK. The end result is a new floating window on top of objects, the detail and the underlying original image.
And 'here on my test comes into play. We address the subject in the new section and we are now looking through my green-contrast object. We can look more closely and see if it needs moreRetouching. This happens in the edge-zoom and see what happens. In this case the margin is still a bit 'torn, it can be improved with the eraser tool. And we slowly work our way around the image, the deletion of these bits, if necessary.
Here the edge is quite sharp. If they soften a little 'how we would blend, but that is the subject of another video.
