All right.
Welcome back.
So in this video, we're going to talk about the object selection tool.
So if I right click on that, you can see there's a couple other tools in here, the quick selection
tool and the magic one tool.
But if we hover over this object selection tool finds and automatically selects an object inside a defined
region.
So if I grab this tool and I go like this.
In theory, it should select the object.
It did not.
And the reason why I didn't say if you're paying attention is I don't have this layer selected.
Let's try it again and see if it works.
And there you go.
So this basically is the magnetic lasso tool, the polygon analysis tool and the last two all combined
into one where you just highlight the object and it's like everything.
But you can see here that it didn't grab all of my hair.
So if we were to hit control, see, and then create a new layer and then had control V.
And then paste my Photoshop face on there.
OK.
You can see there's still some white space in there, but this basically did everything we've just been
doing in 10 seconds.
We just used the selection tool.
Highlighted it.
Bam!
There it is.
OK.
So that's pretty cool.
And what I'll do is I'll put the background here.
Let's add a background here, so let's add layer four.
We'll make this black.
So you can really see what we did here.
And this was just with the object selection tool.
What it did on its own.
We just selected my entire my head and my frame here.
And it just grabbed it all because we had nothing behind it, just a white background.
So that is the object selection tool.
Now, the other tools I want to talk about is we have the quick selection tool and then the magic wand
tool.
So the quick selection tool is a really cool.
Well, it got out of control.
But here, let me turn the the background off here.
Control data do select and let's zoom in a little bit of my hair.
And now if we grab the quick selection tool, what we can do is we can kind of select my whole face
here.
He's about a little bit.
It's a sensitive tool.
So what you've got to do is you got to kind of just do it slowly.
Yes, I'm rushing out too much area.
That's a very.
This one is a little more sensitive than the other ones.
And you can always come back and kind of tweak a little more.
But basically, this is the same idea as the other one, which is not as simple as is.
And it's more of a shorter strokes than longer strokes.
So if I try one more time here, let me just do the part of my hair.
And then I go up here and there, but then move down and let's just go to the edge of my forehand as
much as we can see, and I cut it off.
So me undo that and I'll just.
Let's just grab a little bit here because it's fighting with me.
So we'll just do that right there and I'll make a new layer and I will paint this black
one on top right there and then we'll find a back.
To give me a different color of hair for that one right there.
OK.
And then when I zoom out.
Until little more tender.
OK.
So that's I'm going to delete that.
But that's basically what the quick selection tool is on.
The magic wand tool is a great tool that I used all the time before they started making all these other
cool tools.
So and this is still a great tool to use if you want to edit my shirt.
This is the tool for that, because what you can do is you can select all of it.
OK.
And let's say that we just want to select it.
And if I hold Scheft, I can select my entire shirt here because there's no background.
So when it's looking at the tolerance, we're at 32 percent.
So it's looking for similar colors outside of this color of blue.
And it's finding that you see how the red is selected around it because it's not the same color blue.
So if I go to adjustments and I do brightness contrast and we turn that down and then we turn up the
contrast, OK, we change the color.
Now, if we do adjustments and we do color balance.
OK, I can change it again and we can change it more to the.
Let's get a little more to the greenside here.
So now I change the color of it to red.
Then we can go to more of a sign on the right side, OK?
And then we can do image and adjustments and we can do hune saturations.
We normally do.
That will really turn it up or turn down this colorize.
And then turn it up.
And then turn up the heel.
And then eliteness.
And so now it went from a block to like a red.
Now it doesn't keep the texture because of that effect, but will cancel out.
When I did the other adits here with the adjustments, then it worked.
We can also do photo filter, which are changing a little bit.
And then you can use that or you can do a color and look into the density.
So changes a little bit.
But again, this the magic wand tool is really for that, like if you want to select certain things.
And then let's say that you want to change the color of my beard.
I don't know why you'd want to do that.
But if we hold shift and we select, let's just do my eyebrows.
Let's do kind of.
I'll tell you what.
Let's do my hair.
And if we hold AWALT, you can deselect.
OK, so if we if we turn the towers down at 10, what that's gonna do is it's going to slike less colors,
right?
So if I hold shift, then what I can do is I can go in here and I can suck my hair.
OK.
Because I want I really want purple hair.
So we're gonna go in here and we'll go all the way down there.
And if you just hold that.
You got to click each time.
But again.
This is a really fun tool.
OK, so now that we have my hair selected right there.
Let's also do my eyebrows as much as we can and ought to undo that.
Every now and then, I'll hold shifts to this ibro as much as I can, then we'll do my beard.
As much as we can see our.
Try not to have so much fun with us making my beard purple.
OK.
Now I want you to have fun.
So make sure you send me some of these pictures, too.
I want to see what you did.
All right.
So let's do image and those two adjustments and let's do human saturation and let's see how crazy this
get some of the colorize.
And there you go.
So I'm I got red hair right now, but we're going to do purple because purple is ridiculous.
There we go.
OK, there you go.
So now it didn't work all the way, but you can see how cool that looks because it basically it just
changes the color but doesn't change the texture of of the image.
So now I have purple hair.
So what's cool about this is now you can go in and you can watch this video again and you can Photoshop
my hair to red, green, blue, purple, yellow, orange, whatever colors you want.
And that's how you do it.
You just use the magic wand tool here, select my eyebrow, go up to image and do adjustments and mess
with the human saturation.
And that will get you what you want and that will keep it to where you keep the texture and you can
tell that it's your beard.
And it looks legit.
It doesn't look fake at all, especially out here.
Like if you looking at it.
OK.
Good.
Granted down here, we didn't get all of it.
But again, we're just practicing.
That's where you can use the magnetic lasso tool if you really wanted to.
And you can go in here and you can like this and go up and around and select everything.
And it's going to take more effort because you got to go through everything right.
To grab it.
Which is fine if you want to do that.
That's cool.
But again, what that does is that gives you a project to do, because I'm actually going to add this
to the profile picture project.
I was just going to do like.
I'm going to do this for that project.
So we'll we'll have more fun with this when we do the project.
But we're going to get him way more in-depth on this.
We're going to change everything.
You're going to hardly recognize me when we're done.
So it's going to be a lot of fun.
So let's go to the scroll up here on the history and click on the magic wand.
Now, you can see here we can't I don't know if I can go any further.
I mean, just see how far apart.
No.
Yeah, I can't go any further than that.
But if I click on the profiles dash picture, it takes me back to the original picture.
Someone had control us.
So that is the object selection tool.
That is the magic wand tool, which I love.
And then the click selection tool.
So I hope you enjoyed this video.
Thanks for watching.
I'll see in the next video.
