[@saswataghosh9495]

[@keithbennett6422]

[@danielstrobile]

Thank you for such an inspiring vibe)

[@Baileys032]

This is an amazing tutorials. Thank you for your effort and kind way of teaching.

[@r3dp1ll]

Little advice. 1) at the end, try to remove as much points as possible to get a smooth path. 2) if you need to move the whole path, use the direct selection tool. The black arrow.

[@edoubleist]

Excellent tutorial series! Thank you!

[@kajababuvijayakarunan1156]

Quarantine Boredom buster loved it and binged :)

[@marclabro]

nice tuto reminding all foundations and problems which could occur during drawing.... I prefer this ctrl/alt method to the methods with black and white arrows,... How would you feather, blur the edges for realistic composition ? select>modify>feather menu on the floating selection and blur tool on layer mask edges ?

[@samirkelly8285]

Because of you, I am now a Photoshop Graduate. Thank you.

[@adrianabarrios5317]

Wow Inalways struggle with the selection tools for not selecting properly, now with the pen tool I got the problem solved! Best selection tool ever! Thank you

[@TD-rl7mi]

[@ДаромирХристофоровичМарков]

Thanks, great 30 days of PS from you!

[@LinaGomezRojas]

I have to thank you for teaching me how to use this tool! I thought it was an impossible mission :D

[@pgsm15]

I can't adjust the path option settings (thickness and colour) Anyone know why?

[@lenastratan6885]

Great channel! Thank you!

[@briangilbert6241]

Great Tutorial Aaron Looking forward to tomorrows Tutorial

[@Game_bugs001]

Aaron you are the best!

[@gregsvoice5628]

The pen tool is actually pretty tricky to use, will need to practice this one a few times!

[@peterjb49]

I am loving these tutorials! But this approach with the pen tool seems very tedious?

[@hollybennett9290]

this is helping sooo much

[@EastSideAussieQuest]

Loved every day of it.😁😎

[@andresherbasgutierrez253]

THANKS FOR ALL YOUR SUPORT! IM FROM BOLIVIA THANK YOU!!!!

[@susantiffen8984]

Great information!

[@levakatz]

great tutorial, thank you

[@alexfvcruz]

making paths is a really zen activity

[@HybridCult]

See, I watch these for the little tips. I know the pen tool and use it a lot, but that "rubberband" bit... how did I miss it? Thank you for that one! Also it's always good to have a refresher. Wish I had this series when I was starting.

[@simomonster]

learning photoshop with Aaron is fun, super fun never get bored. FIRST TIME LEARN ABOUT RUBBER BAND

[@hhllee307]

I hit the like button before watching this video👍🏼

[@cliffk808]

Aaron, great tutorial. Question, how do you know where to place the point, especially when you are coming to a curve? Also, when you come to a little dip in a straight line? Thanks again

[@agasheee]

myy herooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo Aaron XD I am having so much fun while learning so much too

[@emrahy.849]

great tutorial for pen tool...thnx

[@simon8142]

very good

[@noyb154]

the pen confounds me. it takes a bit of patience to learn to use it intuitively.

[@e.christopherclark7367]

I've now watched the same 5 seconds at least 5 times just trying to see what I'm missing as Aaron says "click and drag." I swear that's what I'm doing, but it's apparently not.

[@carbonetti]

@@e.christopherclark7367 As other people pointed out, you can use the curvature pen, which is far easier and (as far as I know -> i don't know nothing) it does the same job.

[@iamSamOfficial]

dude, this was so well explained! thanks and keep up the great videos!! (clap clap clap)

[@iamSamOfficial]

however, any idea why when i click the "layer mask" it does not mask out the selection?

[@YPAReviews]

When I pen tool the shape I just get a hollow layer instead of the path I create. I just want to clip out parts of the picture but Premiere updated itself and I won't let me do what I simply did anymore.

[@ibrahimhararwala]

How do I cut the image without inverting it?

[@mehmetbengi]

Thanks Aaron

[@kenstav1]

Not sure what I am going to do on the 31st day ........ start watching from the beginning again

[@ventoroverso]

Super!

[@calistusaddo9497]

Lovely

[@_GALLINA]

finally I've (ph)learned how to use the Pen! grazie

[@robertl.edwards1753]

Can this process be used to cut out an object from a subject with the pen tool?

[@VitalyGagaSmile]

It took me a while to figure it out how to use that tool. anyway i was not satisfied with the result i created. hopefully there is curvative pen tool and it actually fits me better than the first one.

[@AntonioTotaroGuitar]

yeah i definitely think that this is the hardest lesson of the entire course but once you learn, it worth

[@supansup]

I am finding editing a path after creation very frustrating and hard. I found out through trial and error, that to make a selection using right click, you must be in the path/direct selection tool, but not I have a different issue. Whenever I try to add a point by holding alt (i'm on pc btw) to add a point, it is just duplicating the path. What can I do??

[@phlearn]

I understand your frustration! Editing paths can be tricky at first, but don't worry, there's a simple explanation for the duplication issue. Holding Alt (Option on Mac) with the Pen Tool duplicates the currently selected anchor point, not creating a new one. Here's how to add a new point the way you want: Make sure you're not accidentally clicking on an existing anchor point. If you do, it will become selected (indicated by a small square around it). Hover your cursor over the path where you want the new point. The Pen Tool icon should change to a simple "+" sign. Click at that location to create a new anchor point. Let us know how it goes and if you need further help!🤗

[@supansup]

@@phlearnthanks, I got it now. Loving the playlist

[@Algernnonn]

The path would have been a good inclusion in the download on this one. AWESOME series though!

[@ezio2110]

Can anyone help? When select everything and click on layer mask nothing happens like which is shown in the video.Instead bunch of options pop up.

Can you make a video on how to make photos on a solid background look more natural? I.e. Make it look like these cookies were shot on a teal seamless?

[@MuhammadAli-iy4qn]

hello sir, my pen tool thickness option is not working pls hlp 2:30.

[@RobiulIslam-ix7ox]

Nc work sir.

[@iratewatcher]

Hi Aaron. I want to kindly ask you one thing. Do you mind if I'll be uploading your 30 days of Photoshop series translated into Russian and with my voice over on my KZbin channel? There are not so much decent tutorials for Photoshop in Russian. And I thought your new series of 30 days are amazing! I'm a graphic designer, and I know Photoshop pretty well, and I'll be glad if you can confirm such request 🙏 I just want to give best content for Russian part of KZbin. Thank you so much anyways 👋

[@timothymoore1987]

I have loved these tutorials. Thank you for them. However, you lose me precisely at the 6:03 point where you begin your curve. What precisely are you doing to initiate the curve? I clicked and I dragged out, but when I pull the line to the right, no curve appears. What am I missing?

[@MichaelFreechild]

Make sure rubber band is selected in menu setting of pen tool, i had the same problem.

[@JaeEnceeti]

My pencil path stays selected after I click layer mask and it cuts the background away...

[@bran_moon]

Can Aaron be my mentor? I think this is helping me not fail my 1st ever design course.

[@tsmith3139]

The pen tool is a confusing mess. Using Photoshop CC 2020 does not operate like the version you are on. Click and drag does not produce another line like you have illustrated. Love your videos, but you make it like it's easy...for the rest of us...it's NOT! Adobe leaves a lot to be desired.

[@janm4949]

I agree. Used the Curvature Pen Tool instead. Much easier.

[@carbonetti]

Thank you, Jan, thank you Tom. This is the first time in my life that I try adobe photoshop, thanks to Aaron, and I learned a lot. I think he explained everything very carefully, even for a person as ignorant as myself with these tools. This time, apparently I really wasn't able to do as Aaron says. With your suggestion, it's far easier!
