Refine Edge Brush and Decontaminated Colors
- [Instructor] In this movie, I'll show you two more very interesting features inside the select and mask workspace and those are the refine edge brush and the decontaminate colors option. So for starters here, let's say that you want to brush in your own edge detection radius. In that case, go ahead and select the second tool down in the top left corner of the window, which is the refine edge brush. And then, I'll go ahead and increase the size of my cursor by pressing the right bracket key a few times and I will brush along this guy's hair. Notice I'm taking care to brush along the outside edge so I don't go too far into the ears and other fleshy details. And if you want to see what that looks like as you paint, go ahead and turn on the show edge checkbox in the top right corner of the screen and then just try painting away. And as you paint, you'll see that you're directly modifying that edge detection radius. And I figure I might want to take it a little farther out over here on…
