im still somewhat new to Photoshop so this was both wonderful and confusing at the same time. Ive learned about layer masks but i still dont understand when and why they are used. Really loved the video man, i love photo manipulation and hope to get into it.

[@riolaschwartz_]

Literally me

[@copycatlyn]

you use masks for EVERYTHING. top 3 most important things to know about in photoshop.

[@amwartwork]

a good test to see whether uve understood the fundamentals is to have a spliff and see if you can still produce the image u did when sober ;)
thayts what i did and was very happy when i discovered i could get from a -z on the image end result stoned

[@kuzographics]

You can easily use color matching option in photoshop and play with it , also you are using a more difficult way to do it but nice tutorial

[@420ZEO]

Hey Dan! Loved your video...Can you please tell how you got idea for the spiner in desert..I always lack ideas like what I create :(

[@ForeverDansky]

Aha umm, I just did a search for landscape photography photos on Unsplash/Pexels, and then searched for random objects. Essentially, picking two totally different photos that would be impossible and then combine them together 😊

[@420ZEO]

Thanks alot for replying will surely remember that.

[@GREEN-LEAF07]

You are my bosss🙏

[@sunilchristian3430]

Thank you!

[@ForeverDansky]

[@Mikasbullet]

looks so cool

[@ForeverDansky]

Cheers!

[@freak_imaginations]

Mmmmmmm Nice 👌👌💫💫

[@CollageCafe]

This is an amazing tutorial with great tips! My only note is that I had to double check that I didn't have the playback speed cranked up... I had to pause and go back many times because you're going sooo fast and the video was difficult to follow for that reason 😅

[@mhklinks4238]

Thanks 🙏👍

[@ForeverDansky]

Welcome 👍

[@masgen.idshort]

nice tips thankyou

[@ForeverDansky]

Welcome 😊

[@youcefMokhtariDz]

والله انت اسطوره
Im from Algérie 🇩🇿💙

[@Fuyukori]

Wondering from the first example why don’t we use the W? The object selection or magic wand etc ?

[@laiqatiq]

Can you share that custom brush pack?

[@Sergio-hj1cz]

OMG here in brazil this type of content is hard to find , i'm glad to understand english and learning all of it, thanks bro!

[@giapngoc6689]

thanks you for video, can you share all brushes u use with me?

[@damidesign4023]

Thanks for this buddy
+1 sub

[@ForeverDansky]

Awesome! Thanks Dami 👊

[@Storytime031]

Well it's a great video and straight to the point.
But I think the beginners can find it a bit hard as it's going very fast.
Anyways awesome video I say. Totally worth watching

[@ophirn.m7817]

Hi It's not selecting the circles. Only the bevel of hte fidget spinner @1:35
I would love it if you could help me

[@m9yaseen]

good job

[@ForeverDansky]

Thanks!

[@ayushgupta7536]

I had one doubt. I a fidget spinner lands in the desert , then it will surely move a bit forward after hitting the sand and some sand will get collected at the point where it the spinner hit and moved forward. How can we add that collected sand?

[@jamshidmammadaliyev8093]

Do the items we download expire when our envato membership ends?

[@ForeverDansky]

I think that if you post content that uses Envato Elements assets when you have an active subscription, you are all good. Downloaded items come with a license that is dated, so any disputes, you prove you had an active subscription at the time of usage/posting 👍

[@bioaccess1120]

wow

[@jericco1564]

Can i have tht file in format psd?

[@HamdanHCG]

What about the fidge color ?

[@iamaamirmalik]

You are using macbook for photoshop ?

[@ForeverDansky]

Yes, it's a 2018 Macbook Pro :)

[@hanabaric5607]

When I select all 4 cuts and click substract front shape + crt click on image it only selects the outer layer and not all of them after it :( I followed step by step couple of times now and always the same thing happens, selecting only the outer layer....

[@justcallmeasude6655]

happened same to me. try intersecting shape fields? name must be something like that :( i use it in different language

[@deathmax8845]

same is happening in my case. after selecting all 4 paths of fidget spinner it only selects the outer layer

[@azamatnematjonov1033]

coooooooooooooool

[@Shachar50]

We want the end!!!

[@angershoot6675]

Manipulation course in fucking 10 minutes😮 ❤

[@jyankees872]

I wish these tutorials weren't so fast. You are not refreshing someone's mind you're teaching beginners. 😫 Ya I tried slowing it down but can hear what you're saying.

[@moniquejanray2898]

you can enable subtitles and even translation

[@JimNaked]

Change the speed

[@wilsonudeagha2112]

Reason Dindah Unmesh of Piximperfect is everyone's favourite. He teaches, not show off

[@thusithaidamegedara4455]

If you can hear what he is saying, what is the problem

[@anjumkhan1775]

bruh he is for advanced designer not for brainless freelancers

[@paulofernandes1375]

Are you Lionel Messi from an alternate world? Please respond
Great vid btw

[@ForeverDansky]

Probably 😜

[@augustlundby8753]

I don't understand. In the beginning you use the path tool. But, it just seems to me like a slower version than the quick selection tool. What's the point?

[@ForeverDansky]

Pen Tool takes longer but gives a perfectly clean cut out. Quick selection tools can be faster but are often less precise, depending on the image of course 👍

[@yashlokhande8018]

Subject- select

[@modirisebadieta5495]

my three circles arent highlighted when i command press the work path 01:30

[@modirisebadieta5495]

i hit exclude overlapping shapes .. and it worked.. so im not sure what i did wrong

[@aryaatom5166]

Aren't there much simpler ways to remove the background?

[@ForeverDansky]

Aha there’s so many ways at this point, and can all be used for different reasons 😂👍

[@ReidVV]

Why soooo complicated with the pen tool? Why not just select subject then deselect the spinner holes with the magic wand tool. Cmd/cntrl-J and layer ready for transfer into the other image. Ready, set, go!!!

[@Novacrab]

For the fidget spinner it could probably work that way, because it has a very clear subject and a simple uniform background. For more complicated images this is still a very good technique, especially if you want to get really smooth curves (which in this case is also important).

[@babafemiprecious8166]

The tutorial is fast, I thought it is meant for beginners

[@bikashchandraroy9819]

You are a good teacher but we can't understand your literature because it moves very fast

[@elchicano187]

A bit too fast for me, as a beginner. Thank you though.

[@magicaCZ]

As a person who never worked with clipping masks (or masks in general) this video causes my brain to crash

[@Godwin.j]

Did you literally just say all that for masking. 😅 sorry I forgot it was for beginners.

[@akanbiusman6039]

good tutorial. maybe you should calm down in coming videos, you are too fast for a tutorial that says it’s for beginners

[@ForeverDansky]

Yea will slow down a bit in future videos 😂

[@aquafriendly]

thats not looking close

[@uchihabolt]

Too complex

[@krutoyinfo]

Cheater

[@krutoyinfo]

i mean teacher

[@freakingerror1037]

Damn tthat was such a great video

[@ForeverDansky]

Thanks!

[@rookieillustration]

[@aliedits.online]

He is a true gem. Liked and subscribed. Best value found only here :)

[@ForeverDansky]

Thank you so much! 😊

[@aliedits.online]

@@ForeverDansky you are welcome 😊

[@Pungentbeets]

It certainly is true every designer is different! I have never tried any of the 10 tips from before..there are much quicker ways my friend. However that exposure and the color balance were great tips. I Love the way you explain how textures are used, for a blending option I just use whatever fits at the said time. You got some great tips! I subbed! 🦾💥 #feralaspects google me
