This is the most comprehensive tutorial I've watched on smooth cut outs. It's clear, concise, and the trainer shows how to use the various cut out tools going from simple examples to harder ones such as a real life person. I learn't so many techniques in just this one tutorial!

was cool ;for me i had to stop or pause the video to right some things down , still very excellent job

Wow! Great tutorial - I love how you walk completely through the technique, not assuming that someone (like me) knows the name of the tool or what does, and then explaining the thing's purpose and the concept as you go along. Extremely helpful and great teaching style - can't wait to binge watch more of your tutorials!

Creating smooth cut outs have my nemesis for years. It's going to take me a little time to get comfortable with all the steps, but this lesson has been one of the very best that I've watched.

The best tutorial I have seen so far. Tried many other ways and the results wasn't like yours. 💯

No matter what you think you know on the subject, it always pays to watch mr. Ramirez' videos. At least that is my experience.

Your videos have been a huge help! I recently took a job that required me to learn Photoshop and I had no idea where to begin. I've been binge-watching all of your videos the past few weeks and it has been a lifesaver. The way you explain everything is so clear and easy to follow. Keep up the good work and thank you for your tutorials!

I've heard of all this and I've seen other tutorials do it howeve, you took your time and explained it well so I can better understand it which is the important thing I think in a tutorial. I appreciate it thank you very much. I learned quite a bit from this tutorial.

Nice tutorial Jesús! Combining Masks is a great subject and the Pen Tool are always good to cover. The mention of TO MANY POINTS for a selection is important. Can't tell you how many times I've seen this! Really bogs down a files performance. Keep up the good work. Always appreciated!

Thank you, Matt! I appreciate it!!!

Yes, I knew that you can make a path out of a selection. But what you've been able to teach me is that the Alt (or Ctrl) key is the magic key for hidden or alternative options. THANKS! I always thought I already knew most of the tricks in Photoschop. But then ... I found your Videos. Great Job Jesús ;)

Absolutely didn't know about vectors in Photoshop. Thank you!

Damn, just spent hours digging KZread to find those informations. You are the most straightforward with clear explanations out of all the other KZreadrs I've seen, thank you so much

I didn't know about some of these techniques and processes. I've been struggling for some time with difficult selections of different sorts, and this tutorial will make life a LOT easier. Thank you for making this tutorial, what I learned from it will be extremely useful in the future! I've bookmarked it for future reference.

In the beginning, after LimeWire worked, I used CS-3. Get this, the 'Polygonal Lasso" to cut out rounded objects. I couldn't understand what the 'pentool' was doing with all those Default shapes and crap so I increased the file size huge. I found a Tutorial by Mellissa Evans and it all began to make Sense. The Defaults were the problem. The first Useful page that got me Free from ignorance and my art all over the Earth. 3dmacphee 3dfantasys

Definitely did not know any of these techniques! Will definitely be watching on repeat to practice them.

Great tutorial! Thank you! It’s not too advanced for beginners like myself, yet not too elementary. You do a great job at explaining what you’re teaching while keeping a good pace. Perfect.

I learned so much in this tutorial. Especially how to make vector masks. I've spent a lot more time drawing paths with the pen tools. The methods you showed are so much quicker and accurate; and showing the methods using Adobe Photoshop CC, the apps that I have. Thank you.

Arrow keys to fine tune the vector points is GENIUS!! Thanks for that!

This is hands down the best tutorial I've watched on how to do this. I've spent days watching countless videos. Thank you so much!

Okay, I've just tried it again after giving myself time to absorb what you're teaching. I have to remove backgrounds from different machines built for roofing and civil engineering. Loads of different shapes and edges to smooth. This is by far the most effective and intuitive lesson I have ever had. I am a complete beginner, yes I've had Photoshop for about five years. But I never understood how to use it until now (and then I'm only learning about vectors) from you. Thank you for relieving me of this burden of feeling inadequate! I will watch over and over until I've mastered the techniques properly.

This is one of the best, if not the best, tutorial I"ve seen. Very easy to follow. I LOVE that you transcribe your narration on the screen. I'm a note taker and this helps tremendously! Thank you so much!

Holy smokes! I could not agree more ! I have never been trained except for the Alphabet in anything worth while. Self taught after that but it only can take you so far. Wait... I had a few good teachers but I was just a kid. It didn't help that I was up all night studying and building radios and things on my own and yakking it up on Ham Radio all over the World. Now We have Mr. Ramirez's channel. As a Second thought about learning general knowledge about Science and other cool stuff, I have to put in a Mention of Joe Scott, another KZreadr that does his best to make learning fun. And trust me, Photoshop is fun and Addictive as heck when you get the hang of it!

This is awesome, I can't wait to try it out; had absolutely no idea... and I've been working with photoshop for a decade! lol

Omg! This is the best video about removing backgrounds. Thanks you!!!

You are the best Photoshop teacher I ever come across on KZread. I subscribed.

Very useful tut! I've never really worked with the pen tools, but now this can be a great tool for me to use to step up my game in working with digital art. I've also never worked with vector mask before, so, this is quite an eye opening for me. Thanks!

I learned so much from this video, as usual. I never knew how to use vectors and this opened a whole new world. Thank you!

Best selection tutorial I have ever watched - Many thanks

I am pretty new to photoshop so this was an amazing tutorial showing the intricacies of layer masks. Thank you so much.

Amazing All in one tutorial! I have been trying to make masking second nature for years. I will come back to this video a lot! Thank you!!!!

Fantastic! Three examples, each one increasing in difficulty, proved to be no problem thanks to the spot on instruction of Mr Ramirez. Photoshop has always had the reputation for a steep learning curve, but Jesus and his PTC videos have taken most of the stress and frustration out of the equation.

Great tutorial as always. One of the best youtube channel ever! Glad I watched this before cutting out a very detailed cookie. Thanks a bunch, Jesús!

BRILLIANT! easily understood, a nice clear narration and I was also able to keep an eye on the cursor unlike other videos, the cursor is moving across the screen so fast and not always in the place it was meant to be. It goes without saying that I have subscribed and rung the bell, so I am ready for your next one. Best wishes.

I've been Photoshopping since Photoshop 4.5 and you STILL learn stuff every day. The only trouble I have (at MY age!) is remembering the bloody stuff!! ;-)

There's a lot to learn & take in from this video, but you explained it all really clearly. Thank you.

Very informative, you expertly clarify vector masks & hair selections to pop from the background, as long as that is desired. It is easy for it to appear as a cutout when placed on a rasterized background.

You are just AMAZING! The way you are explaining is SHARP and CLEAN !

As always great tutorial and explanations of your techniques. Very easy to understand and follow! Please keep up the awesome work!

I’ve learnt so much from your videos. Vector masking is a new technique for me that I will be exploring

Dayum... the hair selection was brilliant. Wish I knew about this years ago!!!

I am a beginner and I must admit that your videos are so well made with full details and explanation. Thanks. and keep up with your great works!!

This is the great technique that I have never used. It is really useful, thank you very much.

Thanks for this detailed intro to the Vector Mask. I have not used it before, but will try it now.
