- [Instructor] Alright now, no discussion of masking…would be complete without a look at how you mask…wispy, voluminous, untamed hair.…Now there's all kinds of hair out there.…There's different natural varieties,…different cuts, different colors.…And so the question becomes what do you do…when you want to maintain individual tendrils of hair?…And so at this case we're looking at the final composition.…And so in other words, I've masked this girl…against this tropical background.…She actually started against this background.…And I know that for a fact…because I downloaded a raw version of this image…from the Dreamstime Image Library.…
About which you can learn more and so forth.…Now you're always going to be best off…if you have a relatively simple background.…Now we have a lot of background action going on,…but is pretty blurry.…Especially by comparison to the detail in the hair,…which going to make this a manageable project.…If, on the other hand, I were starting from this,…where we have an awful lot of foreground detail…
