Discover the world of advanced compositing in Photoshop! This PRO tutorial covers four creative projects, where you’ll learn to blend images, master complex lighting, and perfect your masking skills.

While we explore new AI features like Harmonize and Nano Banana, our main focus will be on manual techniques. You will learn how to hand-mask subjects, create custom brushes, and match colors manually, giving you full creative control without needing to spend extra AI credits.

This course includes:
13 Sample Images
2 Photoshop Brushes
