How to Remove Background from an Image

re

Here is a quick Tutorial of Background Removal.

Step 1

Open your image

First of all you have to open an image that you want to edit by removing its background. Here, we're using a simple photograph of a Mannequin to demonstrate.

Step 2

Make your selection

Right after opening your desired image, you have to make a selection. There are various tools you can use to make a selection, but the easy to get tools to use are the Quick Selection Tool and the Magic Wand Tool for beginners. There's another tool called the Lasso tool which is applied to be more accurate but it takes a longer to be used.

Here we're using the Quick Selection tool for example, which is in the tools panel.

By pressing the shift key make sure you are applying the Quick Selection tool with the '+' in the centre of it.

Point out the backdrop that you would like to eradicate by hitting it off and pointing around the area. If you unintentionally point any part that you didn't want to, click the Alt key on the keyboard to apply the '-' Quick Selection tool and undo it from the previous selection.

You have to be a little bit of precise with things like hair, fur and other critical things, though you can process the edges later.

After getting your selection done, click the right button and then click on 'Select inverse'.

Step 3

Add a layer mask

See the bottom of the layers panel now click the 'Add Layer Mask' button, and you will see that the background is already gone.

Do not worry if it does not look great now, to refine it you can use the Mask Edge tool.

Step 4

Refine the mask's edge

By double clicking on the mask in your layers panel you will see 'Mask Edge' and the Refine Mask menu.

Now here, to improve its appearance you can make adjustments to the mask.

At this instant, click show radius. You will first need to adjust the radius slider; you can see that the radius is picking up all of the stray furs or hairs and to get rid of the backdrop between them. To go back to the Refine Mask preview uncheck show radius.

Apply the sliders to fix the mask until you get the look you wanted.

You also can change the view mode by clicking the blue arrow after that to the thumbnail image and choosing from the drop down menu. 

Step 5

Add a new background

To add your image to a new background, by opening up the background image on Photoshop and then drag the cut out Mannequin image onto the background.

In this above tutorial you have got all the important ingredients. But reduce time and cost you can choose us to remove background from images.
