In this lesson I use the Pen tool to isolate a subject from its background. We've covered the Pen tool in the past and this lesson is just an example of a real-world use for the tool and allows you to get some practice under your belt. I also cover general tips for using the Pen tool, how to convert the result into a Vector Mask and how to add an Inner Glow to modify the edge quality of the resulting image.
NOTE: Some Windows users have reported issues accessing the video playback controls. While we're working on the issue, here's a Temporary Workaround: Click "Introduction" in the table of contents to the right of the video and then immediately click within the video to give it focus. After doing so, use the spacebar to play/pause the video and the left/right arrow keys to scrub forward or backward within the video.
