In this assignment, you will practice removing background using a more precise selection tool, the brush selection tool! You will also practice rotating objects while in the "free transform" edit mode.
While practicing these new skills you will also need to use all the skills practiced in the previous assignments like resizing with constrained proportions, layer order, moving objects, saving, and document setup.
Like always, remember to use the "gear" icon in the lower right corner to make the videos HD quality while viewing.
