INSTRUCTIONS:
Click the check mark button to confirm (located on the left-hand side of the options bar)
If you have hard to select areas like hair, click on "refine edge" found in your options bar.
REPEAT THE ABOVE STEPS UNTIL YOU HAVE ALL 5-7 IMAGES ON ONE DOCUMENT!
You also might find that you don't need quite so many figures in your sequence, sometimes less is more!
Try turning the eye-balls on and off next to each layer to see if it looks better without them. If you like it better without a certain layer, just leave the eyeball off to hide it. (this way if you change your mind later, you can easily bring it back again!) |
If your figures are overlapping each other too much and you want to move them around you could do that too.
Select your MOVE TOOL.
Your move tool will ONLY move the layer that is selected at that moment.
Select your MOVE TOOL.
Your move tool will ONLY move the layer that is selected at that moment.
Before we make final edits to our image, we are going to CONDENSE all of our layers into one... but we still want to keep our separate layers as well in case we need to go back and make changes.
We are going to make a NEW layer that contains all of the layers below it condensed into one. To do this, hit "command option shift E" on your keyboard. You should see the new layer pop up at the top. |
