    My photoshop professor is the complete opposite of you, he insists that we follow his directions written down instead of showing us how to do what he wants out of us. Thank you for ACTUALLY teaching us!

    Please do more step by step tutorials like this! I learned so much and it really helps to learn things like masking when I can see the effect in context. Phlearn tutorials really are the best I've found for Photoshop. Aaron has a great way of explaining things and doesn't go too fast (a common complaint of UA-cam tutorials).

    Thanks Aaron for this helpful compositing tutorial that reinforced the importance of using blend modes to not only create an interesting image but to make these multiple images blend together so well. I also like how you used a color gradient to add cohesiveness to the entire composite. Thanks!

    @franslam7398 5 років тому +24

    I'm struggling to follow this. For example, after saying _"I'm just gonna pop a layer mask on"/"I'm gonna paint black on it"_ it's just being done, yet the actual buttons pressed or icons clicked are not being articulated. While the image was being brushed black it wasn't stated that you'd switched from the move tool to the brush tool, it's just being done as though I'm supposed to know but I'm here because I don't. I guess maybe by this stage it's taken for granted that everyone should already know these tools by now. Maybe I'm supposed to take note of all the small movements on the screen more than the audio even though I'm not entirely sure what was clicked on? Or maybe this is intermediate? Oh, I don't know...I guess I'm too new for this entry into photoshop...
    EDIT: I've just given it a third go to grasp these tools and I'm legit pulling it off now! I feel very accomplished right now haha!!

      @Aethus 5 років тому

      You'd probably have a separate layer of that one jellyfish below the layer that puts them behind the trees, so it's not affected by that layer.

  • @focalcadence839
    @focalcadence839 4 роки тому

    To avoid corners showing, you could place the image how you like, create a mask over it entirely and paint in only the part you need. Would help with precision too!
