Why Photoshop Clipping Path is needed?

Most of the images are edited with Photoshop techniques. Some images may look very simple but have much work. Like jewelry, images need most of the clipping, often more than 3 clippings. It happens because of the stone works, stones need individual clippings to work on separately. Clipping is the most basic work of the Photoshop; every image needs the basic touch of the clipping to work further.

Clipping Path is when the pen tool is used to draw along the edges of the product or subject which helps to cut out the subject or the product and then detach it from the background. The background is deleted from the image. The main purpose of the clipping is to cut out the background from the image and add a new background. The process is known as the background removal service where the image background is deleted and replaced with a new background. The removal starts when the layers are unlocked, after unlocking the layers, the background is deleted and then new layers are added. After adding new layers the new background is added.

The new background can be of any plain color; mostly the white and black color background is used for the images. Other colors can be also used, but the solid colors are great to stand out the product. Pattern background can be also used but it depends on the product, if the product is luxurious then the pattern background will turn out great but if the product isn’t that luxurious then the focus will turn to the background and it will make the product dull. The most important reason of the background removal is that when the images are moved from camera to a device or PC it changes the color of the background and makes the background very dull which makes the image even duller to erase the dullness new background is used. Not only because of the dullness, but it can be also changed if the background isn’t professional enough to create an audience, which can lead to slower sales and often might cause you losing sales and so the background is removed and changed with another which works great for the sales.

Not only for background removal but also neck joint service needs the clipping where the unwanted exposing mannequin is cast out and blended with the background, this can be easily done when the remove background is done. Both the processing is same just extra mannequin is deleted from the image to create a phantom that an invisible person is wearing the product and representing the product. Mostly the inner part of the image needs to be exposed and so the invisible mannequin is used to show the inner, outer, sides of the product. E-commerce product photo needs most of the clipping to make the images better than previous. Every image is unique and so every image should be altered individually without any mixing or blending with the other. Most of the image may also need one or two clipping, those images takes less time but if the product is big enough then it will take a longer time to complete just one clip. It all depends on the product in the image.
