Unit 6: Special Layer Functions
Module 3: Using Clipping Masks
Clipping Mask
A clipping mask works similar to
a layer mask (discussed in
Module 1). Clipping masks allow
for masking effects, such as an
image showing through text.
A clipping mask is accomplished
by using two layers in a
photoshop document. The
bottom layer of the two acts as
the masking agent.
