Soften Edges in Photoshop | 2 Minute Tutorial

I saw everything you saw. Feather, shift edge, etc changed and didn’t do anything to my selection.

genius love you thank you mua

followed steps to a T and this was NOT helping
I dont understand what it is that I am doing wrong...

Great video, really helpful. It wasn't exactly what I was looking for specifically, but it worked for what I needed.

So wheres the tutorial for the pen tool , selection , mask layer???

Doesn't work for me. Changes nothing. The layermask is just white.

can`t thank you enough

Been beating my head on the keyboard for hours trying to soften and thin out my mask edges and then found this. Thank you!

I feel a bit like he said something like: "It's pretty easy. You have to do something basic that I don't show you how to do. You might be a beginner and maybe your photoshop is not be the same language as me but whatever, you'll find out"...

You rock. Thank you for solving my problem!

Photoshop is easily the most unintuitive and un user friendly piece of software I use. Doing basic stuff seems utterly impossible.

I've gotten to the select and mask but moving the sliders doesn't appear to do anything... strange

please include how to "pencil" an object.

Doesn't work on newest PS 2022 unless you LEFT OUT steps.

You didn’t say how exactly to pencil though. It’ll have been much more helpful if you showed us the process dude

straight to the point.. thank you very much!

nothing is happening when i mess about with the sliders

In short: Select your layer (ctrl + left click on the layer), create a layer mask, then go to select and "refine mask". Use adjustments screws for the edge.

Don't spend the first 50 seconds of a two minute video telling us that what you want to do is what we're all already here to do. Thanks, though.

when i try to do this it doesnt let me see the results of the changes until after i hit "ok", then it applies the effect. there is no live preview as i change values. so im just stuck sort of messing with it over and over until i randomly get a look i want. frustrating.

So easy and I would have never thought of it in a million years. Thank you!

Great tutorial !!! I liked and sub with 3 accounts !!!

so to begin you'll need to pencil your product, create a selection and then add a layer mask... Wait wait whaaat?

👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍

I don't know why but I feel your cursor moves too god damn smooth, even more than 60fps. I want it!

omg I was lost 2 seconds in

Amazing and short thank u

That shadow mask you applied is fascinating. Would mind explaining it in details?
Thanks

For those who have the problem that the changes are not applied.
I changed 'Output to' from 'Selection' to 'Layer Mask'. This has led to the desired result.

Imagine starting a tutorial from the middle

Motion blur cool xd

Select and mask does absolutely nothing.

Great video mate, Thank you! I keep on coming back to it every time I forget how to blend the edges. :)

lol one of the worst tutorials. might as well not make the video. wasted 2 mins

Thank you so much, this was exactly what I was looking for. I was looking for a while too. Thank you!

Thank you ❤️🙏🏾 it's the best video

Thank you for the vid however when I follow these instructions and hit OK, it just takes me back to my selection with the marching ants, and no change.

Aweome! Thank you.

CTRL+ALT+R is the hotkey for "select and mask" in windows.

what an idiot waste of time

Why didn't you show us how to do the layer mask??? Poor instructions.

omg that cursor!!

Very easy, thanks a lot!

In my 10 years using Photoshop I've never seen a tutorial that's THIS worthless. You literally show how to do nothing you're talking about. It's already done before you begin, and you show nor explain literally none of the procedures. I'll make sure to skip any videos that ever come up from this channel again when I'm looking for actual expansion of my knowledge with PS

Worked really well ! Thanks alot !

When I'm editing the mask it looks great. Then I click apply and it doesn't apply to the image. What am I doing wrong??? So frustrating.
