The Essential Approach to Masking with Deke McClelland

Mask­ing an image is one of the most dif­fi­cult things to do con­vinc­ingly in Pho­to­shop. If you are inter­ested in effec­tive mask­ing tech­niques, you need to watch this video! In it you will be guided by Pho­to­Shop guru Deke McClel­land and given the best prin­ci­ples for mask­ing in Pho­to­Shop. It’s almost like an entire lynda.com course in 29 min. Most sur­pris­ingly you’ll dis­cover that the most pow­er­ful prin­ci­ple of  mask­ing is not “dopey selec­tion tools,” but:

…the art of hav­ing an image select itself.

If you don’t believe me, watch Mas­ter Deke and be amazed…

This video is an oldie but a goody, and came from Pho­to­shop Guru Deke McClel­land being guest blog­ger for fel­low  Guru Scott Kelby on his great blog about all things Pho­to­shop scottkelby.com.
