Can’t tell you how much I learn/like your tutorials. You don’t just say “do this-do that”, you tell us why. Keep the videos coming!
Dear Brendan, thank you so much for your simple but highly important explanations about the photoshop.
That palm tree example has literally saved my life.
Fantastic tutorial. Clear, concise to the point. Thank you
Thank you. Explained very well with easy to follow directions. Hair has always been one of my challenges. I can't wait to try this.
So glad i discovered your channel! I recently got into photography and was looking up some tips and tricks of the tarde, and I love how you're very "straight to the point" and extremely precise yet simple in your explanations. Wayyyy better at teaching than 95% of the "experts" on here. Keep on being great dude!
I was looking all over TH-cam to figure out how to keep the selection…THANK YOU! Layer mask!!!!!!!! Woohoo
Only a couple hours search..lol
I can’t thank you enough the color range example helped me get the transparency I needed after watching 9 different videos and two days just to get this photo done correctly many thanks!!
Thank you Brendan Williams, you have presented a straight forward tutorial with no rant or distracting mugging at the camera antics.
glad you liked it!
Awesome explanations and demonstrations! Thank you.
My favorite photoshop learning channel! Thank you, Brendan!

I am reteaching a digital photography class and need to brush up on the new version of PS. So glad to find your channel. One thing I wish you can do is to move your mouse around so we can locate where you are and where you go to. Thanks

Nice video i learn something new in this tutorial thank you very much...
Hi Brendan! I love your vids! I'm so surprised that this channel hasn't blown up. I'm pretty experienced, but struggle with cutting out people/hair. I found the channels method pretty interesting. The problem for complicated images is that I can't get the contrast like you did in the the last image. In one example, there's trees and dark areas that are being picked up. Therefore it's impossible to create a mask because there isn't enough contrast between the subject and BG. Do you have any advice for an outside shot with a complicated BG? I hope you see this. Thanks!
Ya in those cases it is tough because you need to actually rebuild the flyaways with a brush. It’s almost impossible for PS to cut out little hairs when they aren’t clearly defined. With a tiny brush just sample nearby hair color and paint hair in the areas needed to extend the edge of your subject so it looks realistic around the hair. If you have a drawing tablet this process is easier and gets better results as well. I’d like to make a video on that one in the not too distant future!
I got curly hair was wondering how people cut out images with it too helpful vid! 💯
thank you
thankyou sir for the tutorial i will not use other website with background remover site. i want to use photoshop i want to learn in photoshop i will follow you sir
Hi! Thanks a lot for you great job . I have problem when I reach the musk; i click the icon (musk) but no thing be like your are did; the be white !! where is my wrongs I work in Pc.
Thank You From Pakistan
Thanx 👍
do you have any videos on how to make multilayer stencils? like taking an image and separating it into 3 -6 layers of different shades of grays whites and blacks? example: im taking a picture of the exorcist, making it greyscale, separating it into like 3-5 or 6 shades of grays b&w, so i can cut them out with a cricut machine to spray paint them onto a canvas.
Nice video, Brendan. Happy New Year.
Happy new year to you as well!
Really Impressive video; thanks for posting! This is probably really elementary but as you move through your 4 cut out features, you never say what to do to merge the edited layers you have just completed or do you do that? PS gives you the options of Merge Layers, Merge Visible, or Flatten Image. What should I do to preserve all the editing of my mage?
I do not do any merging after! When you export everything is merged together into what you see on your canvas anyways. If you merge layers you cannot edit things with the same freedom so its always best to leave them unmerged unless you are trying to reduce project file sizes and know you will not need to edit the merged layers individually
@@BrendanWilliamsTutorials thank you
Thx🙏
No problem!
tnp so moch
Good tut. I'm totally new to ps.
Would you explain how to save this after you're done?
So we need to flatten the image or layer mask?
Or just save or export as a png?
You can just export as PNG! No need to flatten or merge anything
@@BrendanWilliamsTutorials ok thx
Hi. Carlos here from Spain.
First of all, many thanks for the tutorials. Amazing
Just a question regarding changing brush size with my Wacom tablet. I see that when you do it there’s a red color inside the circle indicating the size and hardness of the brush however in my case I have no color. How can I get that red color ?
Many thanks
Hey Carlos it's because I'm using a brush resizing shortcut. On mac it's option + control +click and drag. On PC I'm not 100% but I think it's something along the lines of Alt + right click and drag.
@@BrendanWilliamsTutorials Many thanks Brendan. Understood. I am Mac user and maybe I don't see it because I'm using my Wacom tablet . Anyway it works although having the red color makes it easier to see both size and hardness changes. Best regards and stay safe (Virus, politicians.....)
For PC users, can confirm it's alt + right click & drag. Vertical is hardness and horizontal is size. I usually adjust one axis at a time.
Wow
Nice
What program do you use for you video intro? I’m just getting started, would love to hear your tips!
I made it in after effects!
sir i have cut the layer and paste on another background but my layer is invisible! please help me
Sir I was using the brush tool overlay and you mentioned that it wouldnt affect the black colored areas, but in my case it kind of erased/faded the black areas in my photo. How do i fix this? Thank you.
Ive done the process for the third time now, in case i missed a detail from your tutorial. On the 1st and 2nd tries, it didnt affect the black areas at first but when i was trying to bring back the shirt, its kind of transparent/opaque.
This can happen if the color you paint with isn't 100% white. You are likely using a slightly grey color which has this affect. Make sure your foreground color is 100% white in the color picker then try again.
@@BrendanWilliamsTutorials Will do this and try again. Thank you for answering!
Brendan, Any response on the "merge editing layers" I asked?
Brendan, Really appreciate your clarification on the edits of cut-outs. As you can tell, I am new to the process. Thanks for your videos on TH-cam! Best of good health to you and yours.
where do i download the tutorial files?
When i dragged the blue down to open a new layer it does not let me
How would you do it with a white dog against a blue sky? Not that easy right?
Hello, please if possible teach me to separate white or buckwheat hair from a white background like a completely cloudy sky.🙋♂️ Thank you. Good luck.⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
My wasted years (ᵔᴥᵔ) thanks for this great tutorial
To say right
Just to get things clear. Were you saying " by holding the altar option key" you keep saying that. Please clarify as you say it is. what is the alter option key
Its ALT
Thank you Brendon Sir please speak slowly while teaching as our Native language is not English please consider my request
I'm English, in America, but talking is too fast for me too.
Ok listen at .25x speed
BTW i have same issue
slowwwwwww down !

Imma be honest, I tried to use photoshop and i'm so bad at it... this didn't even help me :( Im bad
Photoshop can be challenging and some of these methods even that are “easy” are still tough if you dont know Photoshop. Just keep practicing!
Hi, please remove the white hair from the white background like misty air. Thank you.
Can you talk any faster !!!!!
What a coincidence that this curly guy was photographed in front of an almost white background. Such examples are worth nothing. The challenge lies in low contrast cases.
On number three what you have shown by removing the background makes it completely useless and this idea is also useless.
Amazing my friend.❤❤❤
