Photoshop tutorial - Pen tool, Green Screen

Hello All; (Instructions)
Still no-good mic to use, so hope fully this will do.
(Getting image ready for Green Screen effect)

Using the [Pen] tool, make sure that you select the [Paths]
In the above bar, and then make your image full screen and then zoom in (Windows = ctrl + ).
Then start to create your path by clicking on the edges that you want to use.

After you have completed the Paths selection
Rename the Background layer to whatever you want it to be.
Then right click on the Image and choose [Make Selection]
Then click on the [Select] menu and choose [Inverse].
Now, choose the foreground color and make it either.
Yellow - fcfd00
Or
Green - 59fd00
Choose the [Paint Bucket] tool.
Then click on the image and apply the color.
You will see that the image will stay the same and the background color will change.

Now the image is ready to save as web image or device and then import into your project to Green Screening.
I have found out that as long as you use a BRIGHT color as your background that the green screen effect works wonderfully.
Good Luck and hope fully soon I will have a good mic to start doing better tutorials.



Thank You
