[@AvaC12342]

Loved this video, but I have to say, "Design Evolution: Unlocking Adobe Photoshop's Secrets" is an even better resource. The detailed explanations and tips have taken my designs to the next level.

[@diannescamera6496]

Hands down the best and easiest "blur background tutorial" I have ever watched!

[@PhotoshopTrainingChannel]

Thank you, diannescamera!

[@mangaldeepkaibartya3237]

[@tube63017]

i saw several videos on selections but found your video the easiest and most accurate. Thank you.

[@PhotoshopTrainingChannel]

You're welcome!

[@jamilgotcher5456]

The hair brush is awesome! Adding the grain to the blur is a great idea!

[@learning9388]

Love how informative you are about everything. As a beginner, it's useful to know some shortcut and what each tool does rather than saying "Do this, do that" without saying what it does or anything. Just subbed!

[@PhotoshopTrainingChannel]

Thank you!

[@tatecomedy]

Well said, my friend

[@andreshiwa7442]

For me this is the best channel on KZbin about Photoshop. You really open the "black box" of Photoshop ! Greetings from Brazil! Thank you very much!

[@i_m_well_n_good]

For me photoshop was tough ..but you explained it in such a way..that it has started to become a little easy for now..thanks for that lesson dude ❤️

Did not regret clicking to view the tutorials.... thought I knew how to do it in the first place but this method kind of brings me to another level. Thanks a lot.

Using photoshop for over 20 years i hardly learn new things, but i learned new things in this video that work great! Thank you for posting this!

[@nubscrub]

I'm so glad I just came across this channel, the content is quality just like any paid courses I've consumed. Can't believe it's free. Cheers

[@fezileadvocatemkoko4456]

Amazing Mr Ramirez🎉🎉🎉

[@ninhdang1106]

I love the fact that he reminds us of features so even someone who is completely new to Photoshop can go through this tutorial without any difficulty

[@PhotoshopTrainingChannel]

🙂

[@bigiqstockmovies]

Great, i love it

[@mrsxber1916]

i appreciate this so much sir, i honestly cant believe this is free, feels illegal

[@PhotoshopTrainingChannel]

Thank you!

[@lucaschudleigh7193]

Oh, it should be illegal. It’s absolute garbage, and it lessens the trade of photography significantly. Pedler's of trash, are trash.

[@PhotoshopTrainingChannel]

@@lucaschudleigh7193 What about designers, Lucas? As a designer, this is often done. A client/art director sends you an image where you need to place text. If the photo doesn't have a shallow depth of field then you have to create it. Not everyone is a photographer.

[@nubscrub]

@@lucaschudleigh7193 You seem to assume that photography is the only time this technique can be applied. As the saying goes, "Don't let insecure thoughts ruin something amazing". Good luck

[@Dopetunez]

Awesome it really helped me in my project

[@vlaney21]

You are truly amazing! Love this tutorial...so easy to understand. I also like the way you've bookmarked the different steps so you can revisit them easily!

[@yoofitv]

The best way to blur background in photoshop without stress.. it's the best so far

[@fishchick72]

Why won’t it allow me to choose “content aware fill”???

[@JsArvind]

I'm facing the same issue

[@Miranda-bj5nd]

you may have accidentally done content aware scale. that's what I did the first couple of times

[@hopechillee]

@@Miranda-bj5nd then,,,, as for me i dont have content aware fill

[@davestokes3446]

It depends on what menu item you are using and what version of Photoshop you are using. You might have to go to the drop down box that specifies what to fill with (labelled "Contents" in PSCC Edit/Fill or "Use" in PSE Edit/Fill Selection) and select "content aware" from there. You also need to know that it only works on a pixel layer, the menu item will be greyed out if you're trying to work on an adjustment layer.

[@sadesign4390]

That Bonus Tip was LIFE CHANGING!

[@emmaguyett-etchells2035]

This is a fantastic tutorial. However when I get to Filter, tilt-shift (4.20) I keep getting a pop up saying could not complete the tilt-shift command because the initial bounding rectangle is empty. Any idea? I am a complete newbie on Photoshop. Thanks in advance for any help.

[@siupofu8036]

черный магазин shutterstock is a black shop I bought a five-picture package from you for US49. I downloaded three pictures for the first time. When I downloaded the second time, you didn't show any price or it was different from the package I bought or prompted to download it, and my credit card was automatically charged. After the second US199, the credit card monthly statement was sent after the discovery. When registering an account, a credit card was naturally bound and different prices were mixed into the package I bought, but I didn’t know the situation and downloaded it, that is to say, your website design is a trap, and you don’t care about goodwill to protect your own interests. Now you send an email to express no. Refund, I suspect you are a black shop.

[@Askemanden]

I have the exact same porblem. Did you find a solution?

[@avilesrg]

I think the method you showed in your previous video on this topic was better, as it did not require to shrink the selection around the subject after it was expanded to content-fill the background. It just required to make the subject selection, create a mask for it, then CMD/CTRL click on it to get the selection back, expand it a few pixels and use the expanded selection on the background layer to content-fill the area occupied by the subject. I do understand that using the special filter Minimum on the selection not only shrinks it but it can also be used for smoothing it, but that trick can also be used in the previous method, if needed.

[@johnmercerconsultant3125]

Great tutorial. I had always used the gradient tool to create a graduated background blur, but in the latest version of Photoshop it no longer works. So this method, using the tilt-blur tool is very clearly explained in this video.

The use of the minimum filter is great. Never knew about that one.

[@PhotoshopTrainingChannel]

👍🙂

[@BillSmithBSartist]

Why expand first if you plan on contracting later? Great videos!

[@PhotoshopTrainingChannel]

@@BillSmithBSartist Because if you do not expand you will most likely get an edge with the Content-Aware fill. And even after blurring the edges could be noticeable.
