All right, welcome back.
So in this lecture, I want to talk about the quick selection tool.
So the quick selection tool is right here.
It's right by the magic wand tool.
So I might click on Quick Selection and you're going to love this tool.
A very cool tool.
So if I go and I zoom in on this octagon here, her polygon.
Elliptical guy and I select the so quick selection tool.
I mean, surely the little description here, it's going to make our selection by finding and following
the edges an image.
OK, so you see the example there.
So what it's going to do is if I grab.
Well, it should be cooperative with me, but it's going to grab everything because there's an image
here.
OK.
So what I want to do is let's go to your favorite Web browser, and I'm only going to Google that.
Come and let's look up kittens.
OK.
Do images, and I'm just kind of grab the cutest kitten I can find.
So this one right here and all right, click on that and just save it to the desktop.
OK.
And then on my clothes, this minimize that.
And I'm going to go to the kitten report here.
Right.
Click on open this in Photoshop.
And then what we're going to do is we're gonna use this quick selection tool to just select a kitten.
Kurt.
So you see what happened there?
It grabbed everything because we went outside the scope of the image.
But if I try again and we just do this right.
And really, the idea behind this goof it up again.
The idea behind this is to make it easy to select certain objects in the image.
So there we go.
Success of iron control C, control X.
I'm gonna cut out the kitten from there and then paste a little guy in here.
And you can see we still need to do some cleanup.
But the idea is, is you select them and then clean them up in here.
So that's that layer.
So if I turn these off, OK, then we can work with the kitten inside of here and I can use the magic
eraser tool to cut that out.
Now it's going to because the tolerance level's so high by so that the 10 should clean it up very well.
So that's how you use the quick selection tool.
Now, the magic one tool, if I.
Right.
Click on the quick selection tool and do the magic wand tool.
What that's gonna do is it's going to select by the tolerance level here of 32.
Start set random and sample in color.
So.
If it's selecting the same color.
So for this example, I select this right here.
It's going to select everything because there's no tolerance.
It's all the same color.
All right.
But if I go for the little kitten here, let's see if I can highlight them.
There we go.
Layer five.
OK.
So you can see here it's grabbing more of the lighter colors here.
Right.
And if I go back here and select this, we can you can see it's going to select certain parts of the
kitten because of the tolerance level.
Now, if I adjust that to 10.
OK.
Then one is going to do is it's going to select everything.
So you see the selection tools.
All right.
All the way around the canvas.
OK.
And I think.
If you'll hold shifts, you can select multiple spots.
Yep, there it is.
OK, so I can select more of the kitten than just this, because this is just gonna go by the color.
Now, if I said the tolerance to 50.
OK.
You're going to see it's going to select more of the kitten.
There you go.
Isn't he cute?
All right.
So.
There you go.
And then I dragged him over here so you can see that selected most of the kit, not all of it, but
most of it.
Some upon him back together again.
All right.
So that is the quick selection tool and the magic wand tool.
Thanks for watching us.
In the next lecture.
