EZ Mask

[Arandel]

Hey y'all,

I was flipping through a photography magazine the other day, in which they featured EZ Mask software by Digital Film Tools (http://www.digitalfilmtools.com/ezmask/). I wonder if anybody here has had some experience with it - and if so: how good is it? From my own work, masking programs have consistently been a source of dissapointment. I prefer, so to say, manual labor, as it render optimum results. However, if their product actually validates their claims, then perhaps it is worth getting...
Thanks in advance,

Never used EZ Mask can't help you there.. but there is a free extraction tool if you search this forum GML Matting...
See a sample of the dog extraction originally on the EZ mask site using GML.

Lasa,

Thank you for getting back to me. I will definitely check out your recommendation. Still I do find it surprising that out of all these members, none has come across this software. Perhaps it is brand new, or something...

Why not download the trial?

I tried it awhile back; can't remember how it was.

Hi Arandel,

Here's an example of my experience with EZMask. Although I have every commerical masking tool out there (look under Selections/masking), EZMask is my current favorite for standard isolations (the unique Maskerade would be best for static detailed or translucent objects that can be photographed twice against different backgrounds).

Granted, I don't do extractions often and could spend more time getting to know each software option, but EZMask worked quite well in my limited tests, including a challenge elsewhere on this forum.
