Image masking is a process of software like Photoshop to hide some portions of an image and to reveal something. Image masking is a non-destructive process of photo manipulation. Most of the time, it enables you to adjust and tweak the mask later if necessary. It is an efficient and more creative way of the photo manipulation services.
There are two types of Image masking such as layer masking and clipping masking.
Layer masking: A layer mask is the type of mask people generally refer to when they talk about masking in Photoshop. We can hide or reveal the portions of the images or we can change the turbidity of the various portions of an image using masking. If we change the turbidity of a layer from the layer panel’s turbidity slider, the turbidity of the whole image will be changed. With the layer mask, we can change the glance of the layer. We can make any portion completely unseen or partially seen. If we paint with the black on the mask, that portion of the image will be transparent. Which means, it will make seen the layer beneath. The image will be partially transparent if we paint with any grayscale color, depending on the % of gray we choose for the brush. If we choose a soft brush, the edge transformation will be smoother.
Clipping masking: Clipping masks use one layer to determine the transparency of another layer. For clipping mask, we place a layer at the bottom of the layer we want to apply the transparency. We should control the visibility of the layer above. It may seem a bit inconsistent for newbies if they compare the behavior of clipping mask with the layer mask. It may seem like that clipping mask is working inversely balancing and comparing the layer mask. we paint using black color on the mask to make the pixels of the layer unseen, but with the clipping mask, we are doing the turbidity. The top layer will be opaque or seen if the bottom layer has some pixels in that area. If the bottom layer doesn’t have any pixel, the pixels on the top layer will be transparent or unseen.
In this era of trade and business, image masking has become an important tool for everyone. Businesses are hiring professional photo editors to do the task for them. That way they can ensure the best possible result.
