Class Project 02 - Quick Select Tool
Overview
Daniel Scott
Founder of Bring Your Own Laptop & Chief Instructor
instructorI discovered the world of design as an art student when I stumbled upon a lab full of green & blue iMac G3’s. My initial curiosity around using the computer to create ‘art’ developed into a full-blown passion, eventually leading me to become a digital designer and founder of Bring Your Own Laptop.
Sharing and teaching are a huge part of who I am. As a certified Adobe instructor, I've had the honor of winning multiple Adobe teaching awards at their annual MAX conference. I see Bring Your Own Laptop as the supportive community I wished for when I was first starting out and intimidated by design. Through teaching, I hope to bring others along for the ride and empower my students to bring their stories, labors of love, and art into the world.
True to my Kiwi roots, I've lived in many places, and currently, I reside in Ireland with my wife and kids.
Hi there, it is class project time. I've separated this out into its own video. I'll do this from now on, it's a little tidier.
What I want you to do is, I want you to open up 'Quick Select 05' and '06'. They are, this shoe, and this background I want you to use the Quick Selection Tool to cut out the shoe and put it on the other background. I'd like you to add the Drop Shadow, kind of make it feel like it's nested it a little bit better. You can use levels if you feel like it needs it, that's totally up to you. I'd like you to share the results.
Okay friends, go forth, copy and paste, and a little spoiler, don't forget the little space in here. All right, see you in the next video.
