PHOTOSHOP>Cut Out

00: In this tutorial I will show you how to cut people or objects out of fotos.

01:Start by finding a foto you want to manipulate. I choose this one:

02: Duplicate the layer. In the new layer click Filter>Extract Select the pen tool (should be selected as default. Set brush size to 10 like this:

03: Now draw a line around the object, in this case the girl.

04: Click the fill tool (still in Extract) and fill the center of the lines like this and click ok.

05: You should now have the girl selected, but there might be small imperfections which we will now correct.

06: Click the History Brush Click the history palet and with the history brush click on duplicate layer like this:

07: Go back the the stage and with a small brush (history) correct the inperfections. You can now add another picture behind the cutout one and get this:

Hope you enjoyed the tutorial.
