TO PRACTICE! TECHNIQUE OF THE SELECTION

Some tools are easy but others are difficult. The tools that are easy to use are the "magic wand" or the "lasso" but the results aren’t precise. The one that has precision but it is difficult to work with, is the tool "pen".We use this technique for different effects.

PRATICE

A way to isolate an element of an image and to maintain the details of its edges is to use the filter “To extract”. The most important tools are: the highlighter and the paint bucket.

1. An image is chosen, we open it and we work with the version Marinates Photoshop CS3. Next, we go to Menu>Filter>“To Extract”. We open the window of the tool and we see the different possibilities of configuration of the tool brush on the right.

2. Now we define the thickness the brush with which we will draw up the outline. Next we go to the image and we drew up the part that we want to select. When we have already drawn the line of the wished image, we take the paint bucket and click on the selection.

3. We click the Preview button (right superior part of the screen). Now we observe the silhouette image surrounded by grey pictures (transparency), to see better the detail of the outline chooses in the menu of configuration of Preview (right part inferior) that the bottom is white or black.

4. Of this form you visualized the existence of I haul target or black. In this case it leaves I haul black, that makes difficult to integrate the image on a bottom of clear tones. In order to eliminate it and to correct it accounts with the tool To alter edges and “To clean” (left part superior) that purify the selection.

5. When you have cleared the halos presses OK, you will have the selected image isolated del bottom, single would be to integrate it al bottom that you wish. For this it unfolds the “To Edit”>Copy menu, - or the short cut of keyboard ctrl+c, opens the image that you are going to use of bottom and presses ctrl.+v - short cut of “To Edit>Paste.

In summary...

1. Open the image in Photoshop CS3>Filter> To extract

2. Brush> To define thickness...pixels> To isolate object

3. Preview>Menu preview configuration.

4. Depure the selection>Retouch and clean.

5. OK>Menu edit>Copy>Open the image of the bottom>Menu edit>Paste.
