ULTIMATE GUIDE to MASKING in InDesign CC 2019

Masking in InDesign is just as important as in Photoshop and Illustrator, so in this video I’m going to walk you through all the different ways you can show and hide parts of your images. I will demonstrate the use of custom frames, feathering and clipping paths and show you many creative techniques that can improve your InDesign layouts.

I've been working in ID for the last 8 years (mostly with text) and this video has shown me so many new options I wasn't aware about. I've always been dependent on PS to do most of the effects mentioned. It's a revelation to see it's also possible directly in ID. Thank you for this wonderful guide. I'll also check the PS masking one.

[@terredee]

Excellent teacher, who flows naturally and logically from one thing to the next, but doesn’t miss the details and fully explains how to access each feature.

[@drdarrow]

One of the most astounding tutorials I have ever seen. Thank you!

[@ahmadh3845]

That Gridify tip at 3:50 just made my day I rewatched it three time to believe it. Thank you Martin.

[@iHMahmoodi]

That was awesome, I've been working for more 6 years and these techniques give me the ability to use less of photoshop! Thank You very much

[@h.t.7310]

I have never been so enlightened to Adobe products. This is the absolute best tutorial ever. 100%!

[@LoganPinney]

Fellow subs and anyone who sees this, InDesign is SO powerful! I am a beginner and new entrepreneur but if you master the basics of this program it will help you greatly! Thank you Martin for all your excellent instruction/information! 🙌😎

[@alessobel2513]

AWESOME! Please keep the level of tutorials. It really helps me.

[@ciarahenley9622]

THIS VIDEO IS THE BEST GUIDE VIDEO I'VE SEEN! I LEARNT SO MUCH COOL STUFF THAT USUALLY TAKES HOURS OF WATCHING VIDEOS TO LEARN! THANKYOU!

[@timcooke5731]

Learned so much. Masking in Photoshop and Illustrator are second nature to me but had no idea how powerful it is in InDesign

[@deshpandeaarati]

Commanding teacher, nicely explained in a free flowing method. Thank you!

[@mystudiosk8626]

Nice video. I just want to mention that in 3:53 you can check the distance between frames in "Layout - Margins and columns - gutter" or dynamically: After making the grid, you select all frames with Selection tool and press and hold on one of the corners of the bounding box, then simultaneously hold down the SPACEBAR and drag. You can dynamically adjust the spacing between the frames. Add SHIFT to control the ratio of frames sizes.

[@HellenCW]

Outstanding work. I am an architect who had NEVER used indesign and managed to put together a beautiful brochure for my *vastest (Edidted - *latest) project thanks to your tutorials! Well done!

[@22.nguyentienhung79]

So far the only tutorial I've seen that takes it slow and doesn't require prior experience to soft design.

[@tahminatanjin2630]

Your videos are 100% better than my teacher. Thank you and Allah bless you.

[@anthonyswamysvd5852]

Excellent Sir. Congratulations

[@geetabisht9299]

very useful thanks

[@xXxevoVII]

As always perfect video, thanks a lot! I have minor advice: 18:50 the alpha channel has to be choosen while importing the image. If you use the "clipping path" Indesign creates a new path which will be different to the original alpha channel (and by far not as smooth). :)

[@nestorswoodworking2728]

Your videos are the best

[@finesketchdesignstudio]

Hello, I love this. How can make shapes not to 'subtract' themselves when creating a multiple frames? Using (create compound paths)

[@asiapinkbutternut]

Awesome! U had no idea you could save masks or outlines within jpeg files! You should show us a tutorial on how you use these techniques to make a final product!

[@wajidali-fh7gq]

Great ideas
