[@denniscrabtree2170]

The BEST channel I’ve found for Affinity, especially because every comment/question is addressed!

[@AffinityRevolution]

Thank you very much! 😊

[@StarTiger63]

Thank You very much for this, I must say that my selections were always tricky to get right but using your methods you make it look so easy, and the use of the pen tool for those tricky areas is pure genius, sweet! All the best to Ezra, hope the recovery process is working well for him and your contributions are such a joy.

[@AffinityRevolution]

Thank you very much Paul! 😊

[@NickCouryphoto]

The pace that you explain what you are doing is perfect! Your step by step approach is just what I need, thank you very much! You and Ezra are an incredible team!

[@AffinityRevolution]

Thank you Nick! 😊

[@StressLessCamping]

Boy I came across this channel in my effort to learn Affinity but the absolutely delightful and pleasant and very, very clear way these are presented by Ally is outstanding. I love the information I've already learned but the positive and well-paced way Ally does this makes this one of the best "learning" channels I've ever come across.

[@AffinityRevolution]

Thank you so much! That's really nice of you. 😊

[@azeton128]

Okay this is uncanny, this is the second time in a row where I have a hard time to reach my goals with a project and then 2 days later you are uploading a video discussing that exact same topic. Please keep uploading videos, this channel is gold!

[@AffinityRevolution]

Haha that's awesome!! 🤗

[@UltraKryptonian]

This tutorial totally rocks! Your teaching technique is great - Not too fast and a good explanation of each of the controls. Definitely subscribing, because I bought this program recently. Thanks!!

[@AffinityRevolution]

Thank you! 😊

[@pojie7238]

Been following your channel for a while now, and this video is just what I was looking for because I was struggling with selection. Thank you so much! Praying for Ezra to get well too. Hope to see you both on screen soon!

[@AffinityRevolution]

Thank you Paul! 😊

[@yeshuamylove4020]

You are such a good teacher! I'm sure Ezra is proud of you! 😁
I am still praying for Ezra every day and hope he gets his voice back and feels better very soon. 🙏

[@AffinityRevolution]

It's true, I am very proud of her! 😊

[@yuriykazmirchuk9641]

Wow! This is the best channel! I'm so happy with my Affinity Photo (Designer and Publisher)! Much more intuitive and stable than Adobe.

[@AffinityRevolution]

So long Adobe! 😄

[@yeshuamylove4020]

You have such a sweet nature and a calmness about you that is very peaceful and relaxing; I could listen to you teach all day for hours! I’m sure Ezra must be so blessed to have you for His wife 😃 (And you’re a wonderful teacher!)

[@AffinityRevolution]

Thank you so much! 😊

[@AffinityRevolution]

Thank you!! 😊

[@homemovies751]

Just found these videos on Affinity Photo and Designer. What a great job you two do. I tend to like Ally's videos better because of her very soft voice, diction and normal (to me ears) cadence, but again, ALL the videos are great.

[@AffinityRevolution]

Thank you Don! I like Ally's videos better too... haha 🙂

[@AbrahamRomney]

Nice work on these tutorials. You're a good teacher.

[@AffinityRevolution]

Thank you! Glad you're enjoying the tutorials. 😊

[@danacousins]

You are amazing Ally,, your impressive on how much knowledge you have regarding this great software. well done

[@AffinityRevolution]

Thank you so much! 😊

[@jmacdono]

Really great tutorial Ally; you used some techniques and tools I would not have thought of, but a perfect outcome!

[@AffinityRevolution]

Thank you Jesse! 😊

[@AffinityRevolution]

Thank you Jesse! 😊

[@DigitalInspirations]

Thanks Ally - awesome video as usual. Nice use of the pen tool as well, didn't think of that as an option there. A QUICK TIP: You can press "D" to get the default Black/White foreground and background colors, and then "X" to exchange the foreground and background colors (in this case White/Black). This can especially helpful when masking. Cheers!

[@AffinityRevolution]

Thanks for the tip! 😊

[@johnfieldhouse2157]

Great tutorial. Thanks for finding a work around to that glitch with child layers, that is going to save me a lot of time! hi to Ezra as well. Hope you’re on the mend.

[@AffinityRevolution]

Thank you John! I'm glad you liked it. :)

[@cjc363636]

I always mask out a selection. Thanks for the lesson! I'll now remember that painting it out with the selection protecting the foreground is possible, too!

[@AffinityRevolution]

Thank you! I'm glad you liked the video. :)

[@RixCanDoit]

You are an EXCELLENT video instructor. Kudos to you. In creating videos for my channel, I have to learn video editing, photo editing, etc. etc. etc. etc. There is just so much for one person to handle! So when I come across an instructional video like yours that saves me a ton of time and gives so much detail, I hit the SUBSCRIBE button immediately.

[@AffinityRevolution]

Thank you Rix! Coming from a fellow RUclips educator, that's very nice of you to say. 😊

[@RixCanDoit]

[@PhilipJFry-tm9ve]

Incredible tutorial i love the fact that you used a worse case scenario photo rather than one that would be easy to cut out like most other tutorials use.

[@AffinityRevolution]

Thank you! Glad you liked the video. 😊

Great video, thanks. And great software. So glad that I bought it.

[@billyxxx81]

Fantastic tutorial! After having done the free course I keep learning Affinity thanks to your competence..

[@AffinityRevolution]

Thank you! Glad you're enjoying the videos. 😊

[@TheTwick]

Thank you Ally, that was another great one. I’ve always been plagued with difficulties when selecting hair. I don’t always get great selections even after the refine step. Another tough one are trees. When the sky shows through the leaves and branches, and you are trying to change the sky, it can be very tedious and frustrating. 😨🤯

[@AffinityRevolution]

Very true. Working with trees/a messy background can make the selection process MUCH more difficult. We're working on a selection course that will cover tricky topics like that, but no matter what tools you have, it's still hard to make a selection with hair and trees! 😅

[@elizabethrussell4858]

A good video for me to refresh how to cut out the subject. The instructions are so clear. Thanks

[@AffinityRevolution]

Thank you! Glad you liked it. 😊

As someone that uses the selection tool daily I said "No way" a bunch of times whilst putting my hands to my head. I learnt so much useful information that i otherwise had no idea about. thanks so much

I've never considered using the pen tool for almost anything, first time seeing it in a practical way.

[@AffinityRevolution]

The Pen tool is GREAT for selections! 😊

[@AnonymousB460]

Marsorry Ickua some people use the pen tool only.

[@MarsorryIckuatuna]

Mr.B Must be the super Pro’s that know what they’re doing...

[@eryan9250]

Back in the day with photoshop, the pen tool was the only thing reliable enough to make clear selections. In addition, there are times when you want to save the selection as a clipping mask and use it another program. The pen tool is still the most accurate is slower but really tight.

[@manasefidimalala]

Pen tool is probably one of the oldest tool used in selection
