Essential Skills for Designers - Making Selections of People in Photoshop

Photoshop professionals agree: Selecting people can be tricky, complicated by lighting, hair, focus and environmental issues. In this series, learn the tools and techniques the pros use when making "people selections" in Adobe Photoshop.

Start with basic selections of people on a single-color background and move on to more complex selections including hair, transparent details and difficult backgrounds. And while this course focuses on selecting people, the same workflows can be used for making selections of any object you need to isolate.

Follow along with Adobe Certified Instructor Martin Perhiniak and put these powerful techniques to work in your next graphic design or photo retouching project.
