Right now I’ve selected the sky and I want to select the scarecrow. When you have a selection active like this (with marching ants going all over the place) and the selection tool is active you can use the refine edge tool. Now because there’s a little bit of frizz here, it might not be perfectly selected and so when there’s a little bit of frizzy edge to something that’s sometimes when you want to use the refine edge tool.

We’ve made our selection.Īccess your ‘ Editing Green Screen Video in AE ’ Course in the After Effects Academy. Maybe inside there wasn’t selected, I think that’s pretty good. That little blue there wasn’t selected, we got a little too far there we’ll fix that later. If you click on this guy here now from this point forward it will be adding to the selection every time I click.ĭown here, now we’re much better off now you see that little spot there wasn’t selected, so inside there I did this spot which wasn’t selected so inside there. That’s the default behaviour of the magic wand, that is to select once and not add to it. Right now it’s just on selection here but if I click again it’s going to de-select what I just did and just keep on making new selections.
It didn’t select down here but it selected all that based on the tolerance. It won’t look there and it probably won’t look there if you see where I’m pointing those are the little spots where it probably won’t look.īut if I just click here once, boom, that’s what it found that’s what I sort of selected. For all over here but it won’t look inside there because that’s not contiguous it’s separated. The default is contiguous meaning it will search for everything, wherever you click here it’s going to look for everything that’s blue that touches the area where you’ve clicked. The quick selection tool and the magic wand, these are the two go to powerhouses of selection in Photoshop because magic wand has a tolerance, I think 32 is the default, it means it’s how wide this would look when you select the color.Īlso there’s a thing called contiguous and another one that’s called anti-alias (it’s there to smooth out the edges).Īnd then there’s something called sample all layers, that’s turned off we only have one layer here anyway, but sometimes you want to sample multiple layers. The magic wand tool is also up in this little special dual tool section here. So when you have something like this where you go this solid color and you want to select it so you that you can then invert it to select the object, you can use the magic wand tool. Note: remember to watch the video tutorial Jeff made for you, it will be much easier to follow the steps.
