Adobe Photoshop: Masking


Course Overview:

Masking is central to so much in Photoshop, from image compositing to color correction. Building from basic concepts, this course isolates masking techniques, so you can use them to isolate almost any image area. You'll learn how to use specific masks including alpha channel, layer, type, vector, and clipping, and which techniques are effective for different images and editing.

This course was created using Adobe Photoshop CS2.

Remember, skills learned in other versions of Photoshop still apply.
