Guys, if you are clicking "add layer mask" and your layer mask looks all black like it did nothing to the selection, it actually did mask the selection, you just cant see it on the little black mask icon on the side. The video above is working with an image of a mouth only, so a layer mask on the teeth is essentially 70% of the image, so the white mask area is more visible on the side. If you are working with a full portrait of a person, a mask on the teeth is essentially invisible under the layers mask preview on the side. I spent 10min trying to figure this out, until I actully realized the selection mask may just be too small to show. After masking the selection, try clicking on the new layer and painting over the teeth with a colored brush, you'll see that it's actually masked!
I've seen two of your videos and i'm already interested in this channel and its content. You just earned a new subscriber! Keep doing what you're doing .
This guy's a very good teacher. It's nice how he briefly mentions all of the little things he's doing (even if they're simple). It makes it easy to follow along with.
love your videos. the fact that you take your time to explain how the things work and why you`re doing them makes your videos an amazing resource. thanks a lot
People This is a virtual tutorial if he is going to fast pause the video. You don't want to have a 20 min video on teeth whitening. This is a great tutorial thank you so much. It is very straight forward for those that know a little about PS
Outstanding tutorial. The use of blending options and the sensitivity to the pigment layers of the teeth is fantastic. Time to achieve excellent results is very reasonable.
finally a good tutorial for whiten teeth, i am dutch and i can learn so much english from this for school and i can learn so much about photoshop for my school. Thank you so much!
I just want to take out some time and thank you for everything I've learned from all your tutorials I've watched! seriously from painterly surrealism to editing teeth you have helped me so much this is an amazing channel every amateur should watch! Thank you Phlearn!
Your videos are so incredibly helpful! I love being a photographer, and I love natural photos. These hints help keep the photographs both realistic and better!
I just love your tutorials! They are detailed and you explain everything really well that it's easy to understand. I've learned alot from you! Keep doing what you're doing. And thank you! :)
A perfect video again, Aaron. I always look to french tutorials because I'm not good enough in english but with you, it's very easy to understand and do the same work as you. Your videos and explanations are just perfect. Thank you for your work and for the time you've spend for making these videos ! Greetings from Belgium ;-)
I would go out there and say this Phlean channel, and site is TOP in the field on entertaining and real life information on Ps as it pertains to image work. You guys have a lot to be proud of. Aaron is not hard to listen to or understand. Everything is explained as to HOW & WHY. When do the seminars start? And just name the price. 3 days 'hand on' with this would equal out to 6 months of plugging away alone. I can do Chicago... Really grateful for this content and it's producers.
Wow, dude, this was an amazing tutorial. Just the right amount of info at just the right pace. I just recently went professional, and I've found that paying clients want perfection way more than my TFP/art collab models. So this is gonna be super useful.
I am a novice. Being I tried your videos have a confidence I can do it. Life is short art is long. But your art of work of tutorial makes the photographic editing (the art) make it short definitely. Once request is being I am second language of English (sometimes I have to go over & over again) talking speed is the only my.. my.. only problem. Best work you did. Please do keep it up. God bless you.
Excellent video! I enjoy seeing your ideas come together and your excitement while doing so. I've noticed that you've slowed down while explaining yourself, which is good for PS beginners. Please consider teaching us how to use the Text tool on paths, especially on circles where the text is vertical on the top arch as well as the bottom arch (versus the text going in one continuos direction around the circle). Thanks for keeping Phlearn so Phun!
For those who are using PC and probably a newer version his "shift+delete" is now "shift+f5" i got so confused cause my shift delete kept popping like i was trying to cut something
Love these tuts for my students. I wish that you could include a link for the photo that you are manipulating. Its easier for beginning students to work along with the tutorial. Thanks!!!
Thanks for creating these video. We are getting a great help from your youtube videos. Please create more videos. Its very fun learning from your videos..Thanks a Lot..
Your tutorial is wonderfull, professional and simple ?can you give a tip for what is the most efficient to isolate many small photo items for a printed cataloge
I'm doing AS level media and these videos are so useful! Thank you so much! I actually needed this exact video for tomorrow because I'm editing my magazine cover and I wanted to whiten the teeth :)
Your tutorials are the greatest. Thank you so much for doing what you do. A free education is hard to find, and one that is this clear and helpful is next to impossible. Thank you for not skipping the steps that pros know by heart (because I'm a "pro" but Photoshop isn't my strongest program and it's easy for me to forget the basics). Love your videos
You could also make the skin darker... which would bring the whiteness of the teeth out even more. So many ways to skin a cat. This same effect (as stated) could be done a number of ways, as can ANYTHING in Photoshop. I really appreciate these videos. I don't do this type of work specifically, but watching all the different tutorials helps me with the work I do, which is with vehicles. I don't think anyone on TH-cam has as comprehensive videos asPHLEARN ~ I can't imagine the things that you (Aaron...Erin?) know that you don't share. Sometimes when I get stuck in a project, I always wonder.... "what would Aaron do?" ... or "I bet Aaron would know what to do... even quicker... and better. Please keep up the excellent work mang!
Greetings Aaron. A very nice tutorial, but as a Dentist I have to point out some details. Your final result is a bit on the greyish which is because of the desaturation caused by white opaque layering. Let me point out - this might be a shocker - that teeth are not supposed to be opaque and our brain knows that! Also our canines are supposed to be a litle darker (on the yellowish/brownish side) than other teeth. This turns the smile deeper and more natural and not so flat looking - this flatness is not so evident here but will be if you see a full face picture. Also, if you let the lines in-between teeth a little darker it will give a more deep and natural feel to this. On a final word, the "dark" portion on the incisal are of the central teeth (incisors) appears darker because it is actually more transparent than the rest of the teeth, so light goes through. If I were to make this less dark, I would put some very small blueish tint on this particular part (trust me, it works and appears more natural to our brain). Of course, all this detail works if you have a shot where the smile is your main attention, if you have something where this is not, or maybe a full body portrait or so, maybe it is not worth so much trouble! Hope this helps too! Keep up the good work, love your tutorials!
Aaron, this was an unexpected treat. I have retouched teeth before and have noticed the layers of teeth but did not know how to retouch them separately. I also have wondered how the pros retouch teeth because they did look 3 dimintional. This, however, has opened up a whole new level of editing for me. I will attempt to do this myself tonight. Can Photoshop 12 handle this task? Well I am sure you will respond to that, but in the meantime, I'll find out when I get home tonight. Thanks for the tutorial.
This is great! I'm so lazy and just use the whiten-teeth tool in Corel Paint Shop Pro haha... Just started using photoshop and your tutorials are super helpful!
ur amazing with ur work ^^ i really enjoy watching ur videos bcz not only r they helpful but also amusing in a weird way :) could u do some tutorials on action mask layers i feel i have yet to learn how to use them to their full potential
You do rock, not JUST because you are good at what you do, but because you are willing to share your knowledge. Bless the teachers!
Lengo67 - im a beginner and i can easily catch up
pause the video to catch up? he includes the screen shots which are really helpful.
yeah for sure Bro!! its not like he is getting paid by TH-cam or anything.
or is he........?
Thanks to Phlearn, No more tooth whitening treatments or orthodontist bills! Seriously... Thank you I have been waiting for this.

Phlearn is A. W. E. S. O. M. E. ! It's like learning from a Jedi, thank you so much for these tutorials!
CTRL+ALT and drag left/right for changing the brush size was the thing I ever wanted and did not know it already exists... thanks a lot!
WOW ! Seems super easy ! I love when you get "that smile" at the beginning and at the end of a episode. Love You!
Thanks. All these small lessons have been invaluable.
You should make a commercial DVD out of all these lessons.
learned the basic steps of photoshop just in a single day thanks to you! best channel out there on youtube for sure!!
Fantastic! By far the best Photoshop tutorials I've come across. Light hearted, but very informative.
Every time I watch a video you inspire me to be a better photographer and retoucher. Thank you for all your tutorial help.
Outstanding tutorial. The use of blending options and the sensitivity to the pigment layers of the teeth is fantastic. Time to achieve excellent results is very reasonable.
This is the most accurate quick way that I have seen, thanks Aaron and phlearn team
This episode was far more exciting than I expected.

As a amateur photoshopist, it is fun to try and quess how you're going to tackle the problem.

HapplyFace no it doesnt. I brush my teeth a lot and they are still a bit yellow. Teeth are naturally yellow unless whitened.
JMTek (Formerly JoshVFX) smh. you missed it.

Great video tutorial! Will this also apply on portrait images?
