Still, the more I needed to refine the mask, the less AI benefit I was getting.
I found the process easier than doing something similar in Photoshop, and in most cases, the AI helped. Once you “Update Mask,” you can see a split screen preview window: the left image will preview the colored mask, and the right-side one will show the mask effect on the image after the cut with a transparent background. When I made Mask AI larger, I was all set with no more hidden buttons. Turns out, working on my laptop, I had to scroll the screen to see the button, because it was cut off my the window edge. On many images, you need to help the selection along, painting in what to keep and what to cut.Ĭontrols are pretty straightforward, but it helps to watch a tutorial or two first. In fact, when I started using the app, I could not find the button that computed the mask. In the auto mode, which is where the AI part comes in, the app will take a look at your image and make some guesses about what to mask and what to cut. There is an auto-compute mode, or you can do more manually. When you are ready, you can replace the background. The interior of an object is defined in green, and you can use the paint bucket tool to quickly fill. Once that is done, there are tools to refine the mask.
Then fill the areas to be cut in red, such as a sky in my case. Outline your subject or object edges in blue with a paintbrush. Topaz Mask AI presents a fairly simple interface (with a built-in tutorial). I wanted to look at it for sky masking/replacement since I'm primarily a landscape photographer.
We've already had a good preliminary look at Topaz Mask AI from our own Ryan Mense.
