Types of Image Masking

Layer Masking

We use layer masking to enable us to adjust specific areas of the image, create composite images, remove complex backgrounds, and create custom effects.

Transparent Object Masking

In this Photoshop technique, we remove transparent or near-transparent objects from the photo keeping the transparency unchanged. This service applies to products or objects including glassware, liquids, fabrics, semi-transparent plastic, and so on.

Fur and Hair Masking

Our experienced image editors are able to apply special techniques to select fine detail like fur, feathers and hair enabling us enhance all elements of the image as appropriate.

Alpha Channel Masking

This complex  masking technique is used for cutting out subjects with intricate details such as fine elements, smoke, transparent objects, and feathers. We  create composite layers, add special effects, and make other necessary adjustments with the help of Alpha channel masking.

Color Masking

We can adjust the specific color of an image while keeping the rest of the image untouched with the help of the color masking technique. We use this method for selective color correction, color grading, colorization, and applying special effects as needed.

Advanced or Complex Layer Masking

We apply advanced or complex layer masking techniques to work on image with complex and detailed subjects such as glassware, bottles, and products with wide refined edges.

Clipping path vs image masking

Removing image background

A masking technique is the best way of removing complex backgrounds that cannot be removed by a simple clipping path service. Quality image masking retains the intricate detail of subjects like hair, fur and glass. 

Making sharp and precise edges

Whether you are working in digital or physical media, masking and image editing services enhance the overall quality of the images by isolating the unwanted areas to remove wanted bleed and edges from any portion of the image. 

Photo manipulation and composition

Image masking is one of the techniques for blending multiple images to make a composite. Perfect photo masking allows the editors to create a seamless composite image with multiple products as if they were taken in one shot.

Increasing customer engagement and sales

E-commerce businesses require custom designs during image processing. This helps resonate with their own brand persona. Image editors use masking to create product images that stand out on all digital platforms, ultimately increasing your sales.
