Image Masking Service

Photoshope image masking service is an advanced process to hide a specific portion and reveal a particular image. It is known to be a non-destructive way of image editing. In other words, it helps to tweak the mask, which is not necessary. It is an efficient way of creating an image manipulation service.

Types of Image Masking we offer

Here, you can see three categories of Photoshop image masking:

1. Layer Masking

When anyone talks about masking, it is the type of layer masking that is referred to. Our expert designers sit here to hide or to reveal according to your instructions. Again, we can best change the opacity of different portions of your images. With the help of the layer mask, we change layer visibility. Again, it is possible to make completely visible or invisible, or partially. And, what’s the process to make it transparent? Well, the process is to paint with black on the mask, then those will be transparent. It shows that it will be visible the layer’s from beneath.

Do you want your image to be partially transparent? In that case, we will paint with the grayscale color. It actually depends on the % of grayness that we choose for brushing. For example, if we select a soft one, then the transformation would be smoother.

2. Clipping Mask

It is a feature of the Photoshop layer mask that enables multiple layers at once. More specifically, the bottom layer sets the outlines for the whole group. Based on your base layer’s content, the upper layers would be affected in specific ways. Our designers place a layer at the bottom of it for a clipping mask in order to apply the transparency. So, we can control the visibility of the layer.

For the newbie, it would be contradictory between the layer mask & clipping mask. Again, it seems to them that the layer mask is working inversely with the clipping mask.

3. Alpha Channel Masking

You know that every image has its individual attributes to cut out for background removal. Therefore, different methods are applied again; also, different images require different methods too. We’ve told you about the two types of masking mentioned above, which are easier than alpha channel masking. In the case of masking hair and furry objects, designers need to give a lot of time and effort. Selecting those areas and using different brushes is pretty hard. When the background and the object have a good amount of contrast, masking becomes easier.

Why do you need Image Masking?

At first, Masking is a non-destructive method. Hence, one can make changes or fine-tune it. But once anyone removes the unwanted areas, it’s hard to bring them back. The same goes for cutting out an image from the object and making a path on it. In addition, including adjacent areas is another tough task. Hence, it would be only possible to apply Image Masking.

Let’s narrow down a few different tasks of the Image Masking service below:

Modification of a specific area

Instead of modifying the whole area, you may need to modify a specific part of an object. For instance, you want to change the color of the cuffs of a shirt; in that case, an image masking service is required. Our clipping path view designers make a mask by creating that place visible. Apart from it, many types of modifications are possible, such as color/brightness/contrast adjustment, exposure correction.

Hiding and Showing

The common and simple work of an image masking service is to hide a specific area and to show a portion of your images. In addition, we can give a transition effect when we use the soft brush for masking. At the same time, we can also take control of the transparencies in your images, for example, we can adjust between a gloomy sky and to shiny sky. Again, using the gray color bruising tool, we can brighten up the dimmer places of the sky and make it brighter.
