Adobe Photoshop CS4 Selections and Masks

Being able to make accurate selections is one of the most important skills in Photoshop® and making those selections quickly and painlessly is equally important. Join Dave Cross as he covers all the key tools and techniques for selecting and masking.
Starting from the ground up, you'll learn:

• The difference between selections and masks and why it's important to use both
• How to use selection tools individually and together as a "selection toolkit"
• Examples of which selection tool to use in different situations
• Fine-tuning selections using Quick Mask and Refine Edges
• How to use Channels to select challenging subjects such as hair
• Making masks from selections and fine-tuning masks

You'll also see when it may not be necessary to make a selection at all, and follow along as Dave works through a couple of real-world examples. Making selections and masks are two skills that you'll use time and time again and the better you become, the easier everything can be in Photoshop
