How you cut your renders?

[Evans09]

I cut my renders using the plygonal lasoo tool and just going around the player and the cut it out and moving into the sig. i'm sure there are many different ways...how do you cut your renders?

I use the polygonal lasso and the pen tool for curved areas. Sometimes i quick mask it too.

I used to just use the eraser tool, that was boring

but now I use the polygonal tool and it's pretty good. I've tried the pen tool but when I use it it doesn't turn out that great.

zoom in about 400% - 500% depending on the size of the sig and use the normal lasso tool just cutting little bits off at a time so if i make a mistake i dont have to do it all over again.. it might take a bit of time but its worth it..

That's why you just change the setting to 'add to selection' or 'subtract from selection' so that you don't need to do it all over again if you've done a lot.

what I do is get a high quality image with the player I desire to cut... open it on Photoshop.... Filter > Extract outline it in green and fill with blue then click ok then I zoom in 250% take the polygonal lasso tool with a 1 px feather and as carefully as I can start to take parts away at a time.

I'll show you next time you come down because it's hard to explain without showing you in person or screenshots and I'm not going to bother taking them lol it's not worth it.
