 Hello everybody, welcome back to another Adobe Photoshop CC 2021 tutorial. In this one, I'm going to show you how to create a clipping mask in about 60 to 90 seconds. It's very, very easy. Let's get started. The first step, you want to go to File, New. And for this one, we're going to go to Photo and we're going to create a default photo size. It doesn't matter what size you use, but photos are very, very common for clipping masks. Let's go with that. All right. The next step here is I'm going to just click on that little lock button to unlock it. And now I'm going to go to the toolbar and to show you how to make a clipping mask, the first thing I'm going to do is I'm going to create a circle or any lips. I'm going to hold down the Shift key to make it a perfect circle. And it'll look like something like that. Now, it doesn't matter what color it is or what the stroke and the fill are, it's just to demonstrate the technique. So we've got a circle. Now, I want to clip an image to this circle. So what I'm going to do is I'm going to go to my Finder. I'm going to get an image here. So I've got one selected of this puppy dog, which happens to be my dog, Kingston. I'm going to drop it on top just like that. Now, what all you need to do, and this is really, really easy, is you need to hold down the Alt key if you're on a PC or an Option key if you're on a Mac. And when you do that, what you need to do is you need to hover between these two layers. So when I'm in the middle here, you'll see you'll get a down arrow and you'll get a square or a rectangle. Once you see that, left click once. And that is how you create a clipping mask. Now, I will go on to say that if you are selected on the image, you can hit CMD or CTRL T. And that gives you the option to increase, decrease the size of the proportions of this image if needs be, and you can move it up or down type thing. But all in all, that's how you create a clipping mask in Photoshop in about 90 seconds. Thanks for watching guys. Be back soon with some more content.
