Select Transparent Stuff with Blend Modes! - Photoshop Tutorial

Easily Mask Transparent Objects by Using Simple Blend Modes and Change the Background in Photoshop! In this video, we will mask a wine glass on a white background by using the concepts of how Blending Modes work, along with Blend-If.
Also in this tutorial, we will learn to create realistic reflections on the glass along with techniques to match it with the background. Then, we will also create a shadow to make the composite natural.

I've been using Photoshop for almost 10-years, and this is the only time I heard what Multiply does really mean in Photoshop.

[@JK-li1ve]

I've watched hundreds of Photoshop tutorials on KZbin so far, and this guy's tutorials are the BEST among them. So easy to follow!!

Thank you so much, Unmesh for your awesome tutorials! Watching you has made my experience learning Photoshop so much simpler. I appreciate your teaching style and love that you take time to break down every element and tool used for the particular task you are trying to accomplish. Your YT channel is by far the best resource for learning all the tips and tricks in Photoshop!

Yes! Best photoshop teacher I've ever seen. You explanations of how, and more importantly, WHY things work is like listening to someone finally make the Theory of Relativity make sense. The explanation of multiply is perfect.

[@TheCubicplanet]

Excellent tutorial man! You truly are a Photoshop guru! I've always struggled with transparent objects, and even the best work I've done was still missing something. I'm glad I found your channel.

[@hellloatmaja]

The math of multiply is just too awesome :D THANK YOU

[@iiimik3]

holy sh!t man, thank you so much for these advanced tutorials. Also, thank you for taking the time to explain and make sense of the blending mode names and what they actually do, i've always struggled with understanding how to know which one to use and when! It's that sort of thing that makes your tutorials stand out. It's the difference between just memorizing steps and truly understanding them! Thank you Thank you!

[@Snip3rr]

You, Sir, are a GOD of teaching Photoshop! Your tuts are all the 'A-HA!' moments I never had in Photoshop before and THANK YOU FOR THAT! Just by watching 5-6 of your videos, I finally started understanding masks and adjustment layers and when/why/how I should use them. That is something that I was struggling to understand for years by watching several long, boring and over-complex tuts, which became pure SF by the end. It all seemed like image manipulation/cutting/composing needed impossible levels of imagination and inspiration to achieve, but now everything becomes clear!

had to do that in school but you explained it WAY BETTER than anyone had ever before. every step is so clear! i love it!

[@thebillionairedesigner]

this is interesting. I love the fact that you were able to use familiar mathematical knowledge to describe the "multiply". I've never heard that from any youtuber that does what you do.

[@ttylundefined8272]

How this man so perfect at this I'm stunned..

[@falcidi]

By far the best PS tutorial youtube channel. Love your explanation of all the features you use. Very very helpful and very much appreciated!

[@AeonHorus]

Mate yet another stunning PS tutorial. I have been watching you now for around 18 months and I must admit your vids just get better and better. I have learnt more from you and your channel than any other on the ENTIRE NET!!! Keep it up and keep em coming!

[@gregtank311]

I want to take the opportunity to compliment you on your pace and detail of your instructions. They truly are a CLASS in Photoshop Techniques. Your explanations are both HOWWHY at a level that is interesting and in-depth. Case in point is your instruction on Blend Mode Multiply and Screen. I now REALLY know what they each accomplish and WHY. I will need to review this video many times to master this technique, like learning a new song on a guitar. Thank you for taking the time to share your deep knowledge of Photoshop techniques/methods with an instructional skill that makes it possible for me to do it!

[@mounirbgl3519]

This is what I was looking for.. Thank you so much Unmesh Sir... However, all of your tutorials taught me many techniques, but this one stays on top for me. Really really helpful. Thanks again and stay blessed!!!

[@marklutnes935]

Totally awesome. Great result!

[@moreorlesslikeso]

Nice tutorial! I'd suggest, however, to set any layer providing a shadow element (like the shadow of the glass on those boards) to “Multiply". In my experience this makes the shadow more realistic as its colour interacts more convincingly with the colour of the object it is cast on (just as the light does in real life).

[@davidmunozsaez]

Great video tutorial, just as the rest of this channel. I have added a liquefy filter to inflate a little the background in the area that is observed inside the cup. May be deflate is also accurate for the optics.

[@nohasamy77]

Thank you very much for teaching me photoshop, I did these steps with you and it ended up with a very beautiful glass of water on a table, it looks very realistic

To distort the background or reflection as would happen with light refraction, you can use a grayscale version of your object as a displacement map.

[@WBedrosian]

Wow! This is one of my favorites! Well done!
