The red brush stroke you see here with the Refine brush fills in the missing bushes and detail in the tree Voila! The result after the Refine brush fills in the bushes and tree After a quick swipe of the Refine brush, the missing bushes and detail in the tree get filled in. Although you can touch up this map I find it best to click the “Done” button to see the actual mask and then decide if you want to refine it.Īs you can see Quick Mask did a nice job with all the complex detail along the transition. The red “Drop” brush will mask the area you want to be unaffected by your adjustment(s) It only needs to be approximate as long as you brush through a sample of tones, textures and colors you want to be dropped or kept.Īfter you click “Apply” you see the Keep and Drop map to give you an idea of what will become the mask. You use the green “Keep” brush to do a quick sample of the area you want to be the white part of the mask which is where your adjustment(s) will have their effect.
When you click on the mask icon in any filter layer you get the options seen above upon choosing Quick Mask A.I. The images below demonstrate how Quick Mask A.I. This is the “before”image that requires masking to make separate adjustments for foreground and background. The video above and sequence of images below show how I used ON1 Photo Raw’s AI Quick Mask to quickly create an intricate mask. greatly speeds up the task over using the masking tools available up until now. The transition/horizon has lots of fine detail like trees and bushes, the villa, and the mist.

If AI Quick Mask tips the scale for you, use the coupon code JWPHOTO and lower your price of upgrade or new purchase by 20% (if it’s already on sale my discount code may not lower the price below the sale price.) How It Worksīelow is a pre-dawn image I captured that requires masking so I can adjust the mist in the background separately and with different settings than for what I want to do with the foreground.

You can download a free trial if you want to try it before you decide whether to buy it or not. I don’t advocate buying a whole program or a major upgrade on just one tool, albeit a pretty cool one, but if you read my review of Photo Raw 2019 you’ll see this is a nice feather in ON1’s cap for a mature image processor with good organizational capabilities. If you do a lot of masking this tool is a great place to start. The intelligence part of it looks at many aspects of your image, such as tone, color, and texture to identify the borders for your mask. ON1 has had a vast array of masking tools for some time but this really speeds things up and is easy and intuitive. It’s not that you couldn’t create almost any mask you wanted with the other masking tools in Photo Raw. AI Quick Mask in ON1 Photo Raw is a really useful feature for making intricate masks quickly using the in-built artificial intelligence.
