| View Full Version : Basic Channel Masking Doug Nelson 07-24-2003, 04:10 AM This tutorial demonstrates the technique of channel masking on a sample image. Different images will require that you do slightly different things than what I show here. [details (http://www.retouchpro.com/tutorials/index.php?m=show&id=11)] Olive 09-19-2004, 07:57 PM Can this tutorial be adapted for Elements 2? I don't believe that Elements has the capacity to load channel as a selection for instance. Thanks. Olive Doug Nelson 09-19-2004, 08:47 PM Richard Lynch's book has a technique for this in Elements. See his "Hidden Power" subforums down in the Education forum. Leah 09-20-2004, 01:46 AM Marvellous, Doug! I must go and re-read Photoshop Channel Chops which I learned a lot from first time through, but clearly not quite enough! JustChecking 09-20-2004, 09:45 AM big thanks! :bigthmb: photoshoplover 12-11-2004, 07:01 AM What to do if none of the channels give contrasty ( esp. white/light shade) background. In that scenario, creating a mask is a hair splitting job. Suggestions are most welcome. thanks |
