[@timnguyen6233]

Matt. I really appreciate your enthusiasm on this video. I never have a habit to give comment, but I have to with this one. Very good explanation. Easy to follow. And Very precise. Thx

[@debbiewnukoski4651]

So awesome meeting you. You are a wonderful teacher.

[@edrakel]

Great Vid Matt. One of the best tutorials I've come across.You don't speak too fast, your articulate and to the point.

[@patrickoberem9109]

This is an excellent tutorial! You have the heart of a teacher. For more than 10 years I've loved your natural, easy going steady nature Matt. Your explanations are clear and display an understanding of the deep issues many of us wrestle with. Thank you.

[@MattKloskowski]

Thanks so much Patrick! You made my day! :-)

[@gcprost]

Nice to hear from you again Matt. I used to watch you all the time on Photoshop TV. I haven't seen any of your stuff for a while.

[@utubemalcolm1957]

This is the first of your videos for me. Love your presentation style and the simplicity with which you explain the various concepts. Thanks. I've SUBSCRIBED. Malcolm

[@MattKloskowski]

Malcolm Bernstein Thank you Malcolm!

[@KrisCortez]

Appreciate the extra effort you put in to this video showing us the new selection tool. Very valuable stuff here.

[@1952daveh1]

Thanks for a good tutorial. As a newcomer to photoshop, I found it very clear and concise. And easy to follow.

[@brandonkapana2453]

Matt, these videos are gold! There are so many videos out there that are so confusing. I think simply from the fact that a lot of people can't explain the process very well even though they may be good at it. Just wanted to thank you and keep up the awesome work. I was wondering where that defringe button went lol

[@garyshepard7881]

One thing you might notice (if you are sharp eyed), is in the photo of the banjo player. Even though you said that only the monitor screen was selected, in fact the Apple logo just below the screen was selected as well.

[@Lysander-Spooner]

Matt, best demo I have seen on the new tools. Thanks

[@poshboy70]

I wish I'd seen this video last week. I struggled on about 20 images. Great tutorial.

[@j.pocket]

Great tutorial, Matt. I've followed you so long I do not comment anymore these days, but I'm breaking the silence to recognize you set the bar high and reach your own set standards of communication within these processes consistently well. Thanks, bro. Cheers!

[@MattKloskowski]

Jay Pocket thanks jay! :)

[@jody1622]

Matt so how about example with soft lines (I know we need contrast but sometimes it just isnt there) or extremely busy stuff like tree branches? And, thanks. I've been watching and reading you for years and learned sooo much

[@MattKloskowski]

Hey Jody - Thanks for the kind words :-) Soft lines won't produce selections unfortunately. Soft doesn't translate to a selection edge for the most part, and there's no tool out there that'll do that. In order to have a selection you need an edge and contrast. As for tree branches and things, those don't sound like "subjects" to me - honestly it sounds like you know the type of photo you're looking for so give it a try. Select Subject doesn't have any settings. It's a one-click button so you'll know pretty quickly if it selected what you wanted or not. But just remember, it's only a starting place. Good luck!

[@dougtesta4865]

Very nice. Brief and precise. Really liked it. Thanks

[@johnfarinelli4208]

Like your examples of this new feature the best! Now that I look down I see others saying the same thing - really, your videos is the best!

[@kellyhorne1798]

Your tutorials are so fun to watch and learn from, easy to follow! Thank you! Do you have an tutorials on the Wacom tablet?

[@sidarc1955]

Excellent tips Matt, thank you for teaching.

[@susanpratt3290]

Hi Matt, I really love this quick select subject tool, I have already used it.

[@sjsphotog]

Really cool tech and great video Matt.

[@rivicameraclub8447]

Thanks a lot - this was terrific! I just signed up for your youtube subscription so I won't miss any more great tips!

[@WilliamLesourd]

Excellent. Never heard of this update. Got to get it. Many thanks

[@WilliamParmley]

Very helpful, thank you! This can be a difficult thing to understand and master.

[@TheSmartWoodshop]

Matt thanks for this excellent tutorial. I have taken classes from you live and in person as PSW and always learned a lot. Keep them coming😎🤙

[@benjamindray8087]

Dear Matt. you are a great teacher. I have your books in french and the translation is good, but watching you explaining how thinks should we done, I am just amazed. Bravo mon cher Matt, je t'admire beaucoup.

[@allseenema]

Thank you Matt nicely explained and it helped a lot

[@ScottVincentPhotos]

Thanks Matt - Nice demo. Cool tool!

[@jennywaite6245]

I found this video very helpful. Thank you, Matt

[@Ronin760]

Hmm, I like you idea of applying a field blur after a quick selection. Another use I have not thought of before. Thanks.

[@RomboutVersluijs]

PS great method on showing users how and what got better. Nice slow pace. Defringe and remove black or white matting used to be the tool, together with overlay painting.

[@geomatrix5452]

Great video on the latest Photoshop improvements! Thanks Matt!

[@altcontrol124]

This is really good! Subscribed.

[@aprilm9599]

Great video - simple and to the point. :)

[@ma.zeniadelacruz9223]

Thank you I do need this selection tool to what I'm working on. Great lesson.

[@paulbormann784]

Thanks so much for this very helpful tutorial. Wish I had seen it last week before I spent a lot more time on a project this would have been perfect for!

[@salsagrapher]

Thank you, Matt. Very useful. I can't wait to try it as soon as I update to 19.1! You're the best...

[@dewarner12]

This video is really well done and very helpful. Thanks for doing it.

[@oldgrumpyjim5003]

Thanks Matt great explanation as selections in general make my head spin!! Keep em coming like that Jim

[@bryanhutch]

Excellent video Matt, thanks.

[@cynthiawolf188]

This was really helpful. I use PS 2018.Re: the girl in the turq jacket. I followed all the steps up to drag and drop onto another file (Like the girl in the turq jacket) I dragged the image off and up to the file but it won't drop on it. I haven't been able to figure out why. It worked so easily and quickly for you in your video...Sigh!

[@cynthiawolf188]

and I did output the image to a new layer mask. all worked fine. Then my image wouldn't drop...I could drag it up, it just didn't appear on the new file.

[@Eagerrr08]

Thanks - amazing tool and great explanation

[@mtcreate9944]

it's a great video and may i ask, that the background of the villa can be found in what website?

[@MB59165]

Thanks Matt! Simple but exaustive explanation!

[@clippingpathservicce409]

Thanks a lot for excellent tutorial.

[@410guy]

[@EdwinLewisPhotography]

Thanks Matt! Video is A+++

[@suresh1957]

Very lucidly explained !

[@IYQ2-22]

Thanks, Matt, always awesome and informative:-)

[@teixeirat]

Awesome explanation Matt. Thanks!

[@LouiseBrora]

Very easy to understand, thanks 😊

[@dennisc1719]

brilliant tutorial. thank you.

[@careyriddell7780]

I still fine the old refine mask works best. Was just playing with a few images and best results were with the old method over all. What do you think?

[@MattKloskowski]

carey riddell Hi. The Refine tools are where you go after you’ve made the base selection. I demo it halfway through this video. Select Subject really will never get you a complex selection. It’s just there to help get started faster.

[@JK005]

Thank you. The best explanation I have watch!!

[@brendadelorespoole565]

When I used the refine edge brush on the white background my brush was black, how did you select the white brush?

[@T-Slider]

Very Cool Matt. Thanks, and BTW, what mic is that you're using?

[@jody1622]

Thanks Matt! Now, how about a messy landscape example....

[@MattKloskowski]

Jody Ellis Sure... but what is the subject in a messy landscape that would need to be selected?

[@peterouden661]

Love it, thanks Matt

[@nuriucar6372]

Hallo Bro what have you Camera and objektiv?can you help? Your Foto verry good thank you

[@RomboutVersluijs]

That 3rd photo was indeed really hard for AI. check quick mask (press Q). You see it actually selected more that the display border. It also did the small bear and some other parts. But with Quick Mask you can paint these out super fast.

[@paulstott5616]

Great video, thanks Matt...

[@barry10ish]

Hey Matt can you do a tutorial on how to select a tree taken on an infrared camera. I have an image of a big weeping willow and I cannot do it.Please help ( I will send you the image if that would help )

[@tmalone893]

Excellent tutorial.

[@Hooligan1050Ryder]

Thank you for doing this 🙏

[@LeRoyInTheNorth]

This is awesome, BUT--- For some reason, when I do am using the refine edge tool, it actually seems to REMOVE parts of the selection. I've double and triple-checked my settings. It makes no sense. Any idea what I'm doing wrong?

[@nguonthanh]

Très bon tuto ! Merci Matt !

[@Kerrphotos]

Great video

[@MusLim1131313]

Hi Matt, i just want to ask you something. Why the Select Subject its not in my Photoshop. Can you tell me how to find it. I also got the lastest version of Photoshop, but it did not show me that select subject. Thanks.

[@MattKloskowski]

Egzon Azemi Hi. It should automatically be there in the latest version. If yours isn’t showing up you’d have to contact adobe tech support. Sorry about that

[@LonelyTube8899]

I alway support your video

[@oceandrew]

Note to self ... only use subjects shot on a neutral grey background for extractions to be as simple and easy as they are in presentations and workshops on selection/extractions.

[@MattKloskowski]

Now you're catching on!!! :-)

[@mikemitchem4846]

Thanks Matt!

[@josediazh3890]

[@WhittyPics]

cool

Check out Matt on this week's He Shoot He Draws Podcast heshootshedrawspodcast.simplecast.fm/0fbe7318

[@EdDear]

This new tool Select Subject does not work well on complicated images like a city skyline with tall building against a bright cloudless sky. More development from Adobe required here.
