My top 3 new Photoshop tools 2021

Photoshop 2021 is finally here.

As expected from Adobe, every year is full of surprises.

2021 is no exception and this time, Adobe has provided tons of new tools for the newest version of Photoshop 2021.


3 - Sky Replacement


This new technique has simplified the act of replacing the sky.

Before, you had to make a selection of the sky, and mask it off and then add the new sky and replace the old one which takes up to 5 minutes.

Now thanks to Adobe Sensei (アドビ 先生), this process has been compressed into seconds, depending on your computer CPU power.

As you'll see below, here's an example of how to replace the sky:

2 - Perfect Hair Selection


How annoying is it, when you're trying to mask the background where hair itself looks very similar in terms of color, and seems transparent... or if the hair itself is very thick and white that it matches the background's atmosphere in general...

Photoshop 2021 and Adobe Sensei, has got your back!

It's rather simple and straight forward, 2 clicks, literally!

Example:

1 - Neural Filters


As magnificent as it sounds, this technique has been very commonly used in social media for the past few months.

Have you ever used FaceApp? The application which manipulates personal photos and render their emotions, age, hair style... it was considered an advanced technology which had people in awe.

This technology has been brought to Photoshop 2021 as a Beta yet, which means there will be tons of improvement to come in the future, though it comes with a huge amount of adjustment tools to edit your photo, for example adjusting your age, the angle, the hair thickness, the mood... and it relies on cloud data base to render the image depending on your desires. In other words, you need a premium Photoshop in order to achieve it.


Here are some examples:

  • Say "Cheese"!

  • Back to the future ?

  • Back to the past !


And this is how it is achieved through Photoshop 2021:






With that, I'll conclude this presentation of mine about my top 3 Photoshop 2021 tools and I'd like you to stick around for more yet to come !
