Advanced Cutouts in Photoshop
Whether you’re a professional editor or photographer that works with images of people, products, fashion, or food, being able to cut things out and place them onto new backgrounds is an essential skill. This course is designed to show you the most advanced methods for creating precision cutouts in Photoshop.

Challenging Backgrounds
Backgrounds are the real troublemaker when it comes to cutting things out in Photoshop. We show you how to work around backgrounds in the most challenging of situations, whether it’s full of complex details or its the same color as thing you’re trying to cut out.

Manual Techniques
Photoshop is packed full of automated tools that can make the cutout process quick and easy. But when you’re working with challenging backgrounds, a more manual approach is the only way to get a professional-level look. Follow along as we show you how to capture every detail.

Avoid That ‘Photoshopped’ Look
A rough cutout with missing details, fuzzy edges, and noticeable color fringing makes it obvious that an image has been ‘Photoshopped’. Our goal with this course is to show you how to create ultra-precise cutouts, selections, and masks that will fit seamlessly over any new background or environment.

Impressive Details
The presence of fine details is often a sign of a quality cutout, and makes it much easier to blend a subject into a new environment. We show you how to preserve and recreate delicate details that would otherwise be lost with automated tools.

Combine Tools & Techniques
The toughest jobs in Photoshop will usually require several tools to dial-in the result you want. Throughout this course, we combine all of the basic tools covered in Simple and Intermediate Cutouts in Photoshop, and combine them with some brand new, professional-level skills that can help you finish any project.
