Turn a photo into an illustration! Threshold by Path in Photoshop 2019
Вставка
- Опубліковано 6 лип 2024
- A vector image made with Path or Shape can reduce the file size and has the advantage of being able to cope with any document size without degradation. However, making complex artwork with Path or Shape requires both techniques and time. For example, you can easily make Path or Shape from the selection obtained with "Threshold" so you can achieve smooth pure black and white conversion without jaggies.
Contents:
00:00 Introduction.
01:41 Crop the image.
03:06 Creates a selection of dark areas.
06:05 Creates a path from a selection.
07:40 Create a shape from a path.

YOU HAVE NO IDEA HOW LONG IVE BEEN TRYING TO FIND A TUTORIAL THAT MADE THRESHOLD EDGES SMOOTH THANK YOU
Thank you for your kind comment. The Threshold by Path can also be applied to posterization boundaries. I'm glad if it helped you in some way. Thank you!
Hi can you send me the link how to find this program to download it
same, hope someone does one. In WlLR it's smooth threshold
Exactly what I was looking for - thanks so much! The best solution to smoothing threshold I'd found prior to this was blurring and then adjusting curves or levels to resharpen the edges, but detail is lost via that method. This, on the other hand, works perfectly!
Thank you for your kind comment. I am happy to hear that. If you have other "Exactly what I was looking", please share them. Thank you!

It’s a great work. Thank you
Thank you so much and same to you too!
Thanks so much, As an Artist, I need this technique to create my new art line series, once I want to appreciate for this tutorial.
Thank you for your kind comment. Sure, the technique is important, but the expression is more important and difficult. That's the problem. I hope you will go well.
this is exactly what i was looking for

Great, thanks!

Thank you!!
Thank you for your kind comment. I'm glad to hear that.
I am going to try your technique and thank you for sharing your video. What is the resolution set for at 3:02 and how big can this b&w image be scaled for printing?
There is no limit to the scaling of the image after it is completed. Because it's a vector image built with Path. Therefore, setting 300 pixels/inch, which is the resolution for printing, does not cause any problem. You should be careful about color mode conversion. Thank you!
wow I learnt something new today
Thank you for your kind comment. I'm happy to have been able to help you out.
Thank you!
Thank you for your kind comment.
Got it Nice and Clear. Thanks
Thanks again. I'm glad you liked it!
@@psgips yes Sir, indeed!
@@wtchtower You made my day!
This video's transitions and stuff were a little too long for me so I had to watch at 1.5x speed, but great and informative nonetheless! Very easy instructions, and it's great that you explain what certain features can do. Thank you!
Thank you for your feedback. I have a lot to explain, but I've found that many of you commenters prefer short videos. It is difficult to achieve both clarification and simplification, but I would like to try to achieve it. Many thanks!
thank you so much
Thank you for your kind comment. I'm glad to hear that.
wonderfull ! thnak u so much !!
Thank you for your kind comment. I'm glad to hear that.
thanks you so much, :)
Thank you for your kind comment. I'm happy to have been able to help you out.
Great tutorial man, I really appreciate it, I was able to accomplish my objective creating the vector image, although is very well explained, I might suggest to minimize the steps intro. But anyway, great job! ✌😎👍.
Thank you for your kind comment. I hope you will find it useful. Thank you for your feedback. I will try to minimize the steps intro in the future. Many thanks!
Hi can you send me the link how to find this program to download it
THANK YOU
I'm glad you liked it!
This tutorial is dope! Short video just as I like since I don't want super long, boring, PS videos but very informative and gives me what I wanted to learn. I also love the sound effects you use, reminds me of retro arcade games, very relaxing and nostalgic. You have my like and my sub, awesome content!

hello...When i choose the shadows in select then i can’t give percent to fuzziness and Range...what should i do?
My prediction is that it's already a defined state. You should check [Shadows] again. If all settings are correct, the [Fuzziness] and [Range] input boxes will be active. Thank you!
Thanks
Thank you so much!
Awesome tutorial. For some reason though my fuzziness and range are greyed out... very frustrating. Any ideas on how to fix this?
Thank you for your kind comment. Could it be that...? Isn't the material you chose missing a shadow area? As [Fuzziness] in [Color Range] approaches 0%, the gradation level decreases.
@@psgips Thanks so much! I reinstalled photoshop and that work. The effects from your tutorial were amazing - great to see in action!
Thank you for your reply. I'm glad if it helped you in some way. Many thanks!
Thankyou
Thank you for your kind comment. I'm glad if it helped you in some way.
so how do you export this vector image? which format to retain the vector features
In the Layers panel, Select [Color Fill].
[File]-[Export]-[Paths to Illustrator].
However, this only exports the path. The copy-and-paste method is faster. For example, for versatility, you can save the document in which you created the Work Path in JPEG format.
@@psgips jpg is raster format not vector but i just learned I can export to photoshop pdf format and it will retain the vectors
@@AsBi1 Thank you for your reply. Sure, PDF format is best. Also available in EPS format. These will appear in the Format menu via [File]-[Save Cory].
Everything I get with this technique yields a negative image. Layer one becomes a negative image. This may reflect changes to the software with Photoshop 2022? I can invert that with an adjustment layer and move on. We'll see how that works.
I confirmed in Photoshop 2022. You should check the following operations.
03:54 In [Color Range], turn on [Invert].
05:28 In [Color Range], turn off [Invert].
These operations are for preview purposes, and Color Range makes a selection in the white area. I hope you will go well.
how do you work with a low resolution picture or snapshot from a video? Threshold seems to struggle with less detail available.
Since it will be difficult at low resolutions, why not try upsampling? Preserve Details 2.0 enables highly accurate upsampling. For example, even a 1600% enlargement would give good results. I hope you will go well.
@@psgips tried upsampling but I really didnt see any dramatic effect with these screenshots from a youtube video. Like for example applying oil paint filter has virtually no effect I guess because not enough detail to find the contrast areas. Not sure.
@@KeyIntelMedia Even a slight difference in gradation can be divided into black and white. Because there are 256 levels of grayscale. If the detail is not appropriate, the only thing you can do is change the subject material itself. I hope you will go well.
it's okay to rasterize the vector? it ask me to do so when i want to edit it. thanks for your video it's help
Thank you for your kind comment. It's okay to rasterize. However, do so only after you have sized it for the finished product. That's because rasterization determines the current number of pixels. Alternatively, you can save the vector as the original file in PSD format and then output it in rasters such as JPEG format or PNG format.
@@psgips this is exactly what i did. i appreciate your help.
Thank you for your reply. If you have any questions, please don't hesitate to get in touch.
Why I cannot adjust the fuzziness and the other stuff below it?
I've had questions similar to yours. If your operation is correct, I think it's a bug. It seems to happen in version CS6. What version of Photoshop are you using? There is also a comment that it worked fine after reinstalling Photoshop. I hope you will go well.
It's funny the way I just happened to type in the right keywords to get me to this video lol
Thank you for your kind comment. I'm glad if it helped you in some way.
Same problem the fuzziness and range are greyedout
The [Fuzziness] and [Range] greyed out after you set [Shadows]? It's at 03:30 in the video. If you set [Highlights] or [Midtones] and it is grayed out, it is probably an error. I hope you will go well.
Let me try again! Thank you so much for your help. 😊
I like the "effect" created here but without vocals and the video running so fast, impossible for me to determine exactly how this was created. I can follow some of it but not all of it.
Thank you for your feedback. It was really helpful. I will continue to aim for useful techniques. If you have any questions, please don't hesitate to get in touch. Thank you!
@@psgips Yes please I do have a question. (I am using PSCS6 on an iMac running OSX 10.11.6) When I choose Color Range and then select "Shadows" both, the Fuzziness and Range sliders become greyed out and unusable. Can you explain why this is occurring? Thank you much. Roger
Thank you for your reply. I've had questions similar to yours. I'm not in an environment to boot CS 6. I'm not sure if this information is reliable... Right after [Select] - [Color Range], remove the [Detect Faces] and [Localized Color Clusters] checkbox.
@@psgips Appreciate the reply but 'no' that doesn't solve problem. Also, I made sure I was working in RGB color space and tried both, 8-bit and 16-bit. Honestly, I have never, even after 27 years of working in Photoshop, had any success when using the Color Range filter. Thanks much anyway.
I found the following article in the Photoshop Forum. The operation guarantee for CS 6 ends at 10.9. Bugs in Photoshop may be resolved by resetting Preferences. I hope it goes well.
Can you give me just one sketch or picture of halima sultan in black and white colour

Can you forward me to convert that image in black and white contrast
Please dear

Unfortunately, I do not offer that kind of service. Thank you!
I can't regulate fuzziness and range showed at 3:57, idk why
From what I can see - you can only adjust the settings if you are using photoshop Cc. Idk why you can see the options in earlier versions - confusing..
Nicky Bohn mine is CS6
@@MrInterpriser That's the problem unfortunately. If you get it working.. It's brilliant. Good luck!
I'm not sure if this information is reliable... Right after [Select]-[Color Range], remove the [Detect Faces] and [Localized Color Clusters] checkbox.
@@psgips but it's already deselected.. then ?
which software ??
please help me
need urgently
This video uses Adobe Photoshop 2019. It is compatible if the version is CS6 or later.
🤗😇
I'm glad you liked it!
how to do it on mobile?
I haven't prepared for that yet. Probably, the mobile version still doesn't have the pass feature.
i wish i can watch this in 4x speed bc 2x speed is still so slow
Thank you for your feedback. I wish I could operate it at 4x speed.
Exactly. A one minute job is edited into so unnecessary clips and steps and shit. Huge pain the in ass. I l also played it in 2x. But still painful to get through.
The music and the video are soooo destructive!! The tutorial maybe is good but the rest is totally unnecessary! :)
Thank you for your precious advice. I'll try my very best not to make the same mistake twice.
