All right.
Welcome back.
So in this video, we're to talk about the rectangular marquee tool.
So let's jump right back into our profile pictured up GST file here.
And I'm going to click on the rectangular marquee tool.
So let's select that.
And the first thing I want you to do before you start doing this is control data.
Dislike that.
OK.
Now, what we're gonna do is we're going to create another layer.
And now we're gonna do this.
And I'm going to grab the paint bucket right here and I'm going to fill this.
And so let me do this.
Kind of you can see my lovely face has been blocked out.
Now we can fade this guy and then use the move tool to move it around so we can use this as kind of
like a little filter for the image so that it's not as.
And let's see if we can lower their passively a little bit.
There you go.
Give a little blue feel.
Now, that's one where you can use the marquee tool.
Was that way another way that I use the marquee tool as I use it to edit.
So I'll go in here and let's go and let's.
Let's see what we can do.
You got off here.
Let's do the sludge, do this little icon right here.
So if we grab the Markey tool.
Like that.
And then I grabbed the eyedropper and I grabbed the brush and I hit the letter B.
So that's the shortcut for that.
I can paint that in.
OK.
Now, it doesn't look good because we didn't use the right tool.
But when I zoom out, you can't tell.
OK.
And all I did was I use the Marky tool so I can do that again here.
So grab my key tool.
What I want to do that I mean, grow the monkey tool here and then do the same thing.
OK.
And then go over here and do the same thing.
OK.
And then we'll do it here.
Now, we wanted to be a little more.
I want to be a little tighter with my.
My homework here, so that way it's not kind of all over the place.
I mean, because when you Photoshop stuff, you don't want to do like a broad stroke.
You want to do a tight stroke.
So that way the effects that you're doing, you can't really tell.
Like the one you can tell is this one right here.
These ones are harder to identify because of the thing.
So the other thing we can do is write down here.
If I grab the marquee to undo that here, then we can we can do that here, too.
So this is one way that you can use them, marquee tool to Photoshop different things.
Now I use this tool all the time for a variety of reasons.
But again, one of the main reasons that I use it is if there's and if there's a spot where I need to
squarely edit something.
So like let's say I wanted to cut out the background here.
And I just select that.
I hit delete.
And I want to do it up here.
Right.
There are other ways to do it.
You can grab a seat like that.
OK.
I was wondering why my toolbar was up there, OK?
Anyway, so if I grab the market tool and I do this and I go all the way to my spike there and then
hit delete.
OK.
Now we've basically started to edit this photo
without using the eraser to or anything.
We're just using the marquee tool.
Now, I don't recommend doing that like a full edit with the marquee tool, but if you want to get started
with it, that's a good way to use the marquee tool.
OK, so let's talk about the next tool here.
So we have the elliptical MARKEE tool.
So this one is a circle.
So this is good for if you want to do like a like my face here.
And let's make a new layer, some control due to deselect that guy.
And then let's do that again right here.
So if I do that.
What I can do is I can.
And the fact that.
So a little color overlay.
OK.
And then let's do that.
OK.
So there you can see we can put that over my face there and then we can blend those a little bit.
OK.
When you can you can kind of use that as a marker as to where you're going to be editing.
That's really the idea behind what I'm showing you.
But again, you can use other techniques as well.
But this is a great way to see, OK, if I if I do this, then I cut off here.
Cut off there.
Cut down there.
OK.
So with the market tool, you can do a couple of things if I just draw freehand here.
It's going to just do whatever wild shape I come up with.
But if I hold Scheft then it's going to make it a square oval.
That makes sense.
So like this.
Lots of I hold Scheft if I let go and I'll just kind of be more of a free form shape like that.
If I had control d that'll d select.
So I'll delete layer three, OK?
And what we're gonna talk about now is the single marquee single roll marquee tool.
So this if I go like that, as long as I'm on the layer and I hit delete, what it's gonna do is it's
gonna draw a line through my face there.
And then we can do another one here.
OK.
And what I normally use this for is not to draw lines through my face, but in fact I'll use it for
when I'm doing a layout of a website or an app.
And I want to add a line.
And I just need a thin line.
I can just use that and that will give me what I need.
Now, there's other white options to other ways to do that, but this is just one of those ways to do
it.
OK.
So what I'm going to do now is I'm going to show you how to use the undo tool.
So if we're going to edit and we do undies select, OK, we're gonna hit control zie until I come back
to normal.
And it should take us all the way back because I haven't done that many edits.
Well, beautiful.
OK.
Someone had control d control asked to save.
And that is the rectangular Marki tool.
The elliptical Marki tool.
The single roll Marki tool.
And the single column Markee Tool.
So thank you for watching.
And in the next video, we're going to get to the fun stuff and start talking about the lasso tool,
the polygon il lasso tool and the magnetic lasso tool, which are all really fun tools.
And one of my favorite tools to not only talk about, but to use.
So thank you for watching us.
In the next video.
