How to VECTORIZE ANYTHING using Adobe Photoshop and Adobe Illustrator

[@CharleyPangus]

Thanks for all the support on this video! Really love all of you. Hope you stick around and watch my other videos 😊

[@leightond4.3.5.9]

thankyou man that was really helpful, perfect speed your time is greatly appreciated

[@nkupras]

Pro Tip: In Photoshop, convert your image layer to a Smart Object first, then apply the Camera Raw filter. This way you can go back and make adjustments to the image if the Stamp filter doesn't give you the desired results.

[@colinfrederick2603]

Wow. I've seen a lot of tutorials and this was REALLY clearly done and fast af with zero fluff. No notes. Perfection.

[@andrewcoggins187]

Clicked this on a whim, gonna use it to make scalable silhouettes from now on

[@dee7953]

Damn that's dope, thanks for the tutorial!

[@letsgetdowntobusiness-]

You have redeemed yourself Mr. Pangus. Job well done sir.

[@CharleyPangus]

BEST AND EASIEST TUTORIAL VIDEO ABOUT HOW TO MAKE VECTOR EASILY, NO DOUBT

[@marisabel407]

The best tutorial about vectorizing, i finally learned this!!!

[@dr91262]

[@zwenaing2196]

I am junior graphic designer, your video is very useful for me and every graphic designer. Thank a lot.

[@Rise_est2014]

This was a great one Charlie!

[@Rise_est2014]

I will follow your channel again. Haha

[@Sarina-nn3ht]

Your videos are incredibly helpful! Thank you so much for sharing!

[@CharleyPangus]

Thank you so much 🙏🏼

[@robguyatt9602]

My comment is about the speed of this tutorial. Excellent. You don't waffle on. You say only what needs to be said. Some other tutes of this complexity can be 20m long. If I was following this to learn how to do this I would just pause and go back when needed so I could follow the steps. Well done.

[@kelseymatarese7423]

I like that your videos are straight to the point, thanks!

[@mattboxprod]

This is exactly what I needed to help with stencils to use for tattoos! Thanks so much!

[@CharleyPangus]

Happy to help

[@daudausman7923]

[@boldclothing2619]

Thank you for speaking quickly and to the point! Kept my ADHD a$$ engaged and learned a heap!

[@CharleyPangus]

As someone with ADHD I understand haha 👍🏼😆

[@visualthings]

05:58: the reason why it is smaller when you paste it is that - although you have the same pixel dimension for your PSD and AI documents, your PSD has a high dpi setting. It can be 3000 pixels but only 4 inches, or 7 inches, or more. When you paste it, Illustrator places it at its size. It's not a big deal but if you need to repeat this operation, make sure you set your dpi lower (unclick "resample" when you change your dimensions)

[@victorianielsen3111]

this video is so amazingly helpful, thank you!!!

[@CharleyPangus]

Happy to help

[@mattalber]

Thank you Charlie! PS: In my PC version of Illustrator, that handy menu bar with the "image trace" button isn't visible. Any clues on how to make that bar visible?

[@youssefibrahim2035]

U just earned ur self a new subscription with this amazing tutorial thanks man

[@CharleyPangus]

Yay!!!

[@FRANKHELLCAT]

This was more helpful than you could imagine. Every time I make a design I run into a problem. I cannot delete the white back ground to create a png. I’ve always vectorized the image then went into photo shop and deleted all of the white manually with the magic wand tool. Such a long process that I’ve had to go through several times. Now that I know this information, it will save me so much time. Very helpful video thank you, I get the same vibes here as I did in photo shop class

[@abdullahsizer4458]

hello, I am a young fashion designer and you are very helpful to me. thank you very much. you are a good person my friend

[@jugglingj]

A bit quick for a total noob but clear to understand. Serious thank you.

[@orrefis]

this was exactly what I needed to know for my birthday present to my niece, thank you man

[@themetronomelab.9457]

MAN!!!! YOU JUST HELPED ME OUT BIG TIME.

[@bugorchard]

You're a god-send! This was so helpful, thank you so much

[@fullcircleretrospective9913]

I think you made it click! I've got lots more to learn, but you got me to understand this process. Appreciate you.

[@uvsumindset]

Thanks for being you! Keep doing what you do brother 👌 much love from Aus

[@CharleyPangus]

🙏🏼

[@Aerogrow]

interesting, been using gimp for years via add-alpa-channel+fuzzy select by color and delete; might have to re-try photoshop to see if its easier/quicker in workflow. Largest issue is the lack of centerline tracing; but for most part I use lightburn trace function.

[@marc-henridaetwyler9818]

This is awsome, I was looking for this. And the hole video behing fast past and without any tangents. Great job, thanks a bunch

[@BIMB0oinLIMB0o]

Dude. I work in a makerspace in a public library and I have to go over this over and over every single day. Thank you for making this so straightforward but with some great pearls of practice even I could learn from.

[@CharleyPangus]

Of course I love teaching and I’m glad I can help even a little.

[@98moths-hz3ns]

i hate tutorials but this video was very enjoyable, informative and helpful. thank you

[@GutterFunk420]

Amazing bro, I'm gonna try this one. Cheers

[@cherylpenrod8768]

Love the detailed explanation , I am new to Adobe so for me you spoke a little to fast to follow.

[@radresale1689]

You can adjust the speed of videos. Just go to the gear shape on the bottom right of the video (looks like a flower to me, lol) and click to see "Playback speed". You can increase or decrease speed there. When I watch tutorials I like to slow it down so I can absorb what's being said.

[@pauloangelo2787]

its a hugeeeeeeeeeeee help for my career! Thanks so much sir!

[@MonikaGajewska_Art]

You can´t imagine how much you helped me with this content! Thank you for sharing your knowledge!

[@CharleyPangus]

Happy to help

[@Kirkshelton]

I guess I'm old school. My method is desaturate, adjust contrast, threshold, select black, create work path. then export paths to Illustrator. It takes some time but once in AI you gotta figure out what paths are what and what to remove. I'll try this way, thanks!

[@morethancolors4775]

Your passion for photo manipulation really shines through in this tutorial. Thanks for the inspiration!

[@berthoblack]

bro, you have no idea how much i appreciate what you do. this video helped a ton.. stay blesssed and keep creating.

[@simonlizarazochaparro222]

This is amazing! Practical and easy to follow!

[@andrewkyle]

Your the best explainer I have watched. Thank you!

[@Axunen]

Also in photoshop (in Ai as well), you can make a version or a stroke which is a bit more rounded and not as jagged as the "raw" outline. to get a bit more of a stamp or a patch look.

[@ShowThem-no8jk]

hi! great work , ineed help because i should to vectorize a tram picture , and all my results are not good because the tram is small do you have a technic for more detail ?

[@matthewzacharias4199]

Charley - Thanks for sharing...this a fantastic breakdown. Quick question: would you modify your approach, in any way, if you were prepping an image that will be used for a Silk Screen? Or would a Silk Screen approach be the exact same method as listed above in the video? Thank you!

[@glennracoma7481]

That was way too cool. Thanks always wanted a clear instruction on editing color images in PS to be vectorized in Illustrator. I'm a sign designer and my work usually are large scale between 5ft to 40ft panels. These are signs and large graphics. Very helpful video Thank you!!

[@ericktorruco7615]

Great tutorial! I'll try it, thank you so much for sharing :)

[@CharleyPangus]

[@arendpryor7666]

Great tutorial, exactly what I was looking for

[@CharleyPangus]

[@bjohns3961]

i found out you press shift with the lasso tool to bring the selection further out and alt to bring it back in. im new so i didnt know maybe someone else will find that useful

[@TheRocknessMonstre]

Thanks man! I've been out of school and the graphic design game for a few years and this has definitely help respark my Photoshop brain

[@CtrlVicky]

THIS IS AWESOME!

[@CharleyPangus]

Thank you

[@Melissalizzah]

Awesomeness. I have a very detailed hand drawn graphic that I need vectorized, and I can't get Illustrator to keep all my detail . I'm a newbie so I'm a little lost but I have 51 of these drawings to vectorize. Any advice?

[@Melissalizzah]

I did figure it out. Keep watching you tube videos!!!

[@oraclemedia9266]

Good work Bro!

[@CharleyPangus]

Thank you!

[@marnibowen7286]

Very clear and concise. Maybe in future tutorials for those trying to learn how to do this could you slow down just a bit as I had to rewind loads of times to get all that you were saying, because not all of us are young and get things really quickly.

[@StudioDevapriya]

In the setup, appreciate the videos! Maybe a dumb question but is there a way to export content in mono in soft20?

[@alore2594]

Nice video man, going to help me wit tufting rugs!
