In this video we are going to learn Frame tool in Adobe Photoshop
0:15
So friends, the Frame tool in Adobe Photoshop is a feature that allows you to create a rectangular
0:21
or a circular placeholder for images, graphics or other content. It act as a container or a placeholder for the content
0:29
and can be resized and moved as needed. So the frame tool in a toolbar you can see over here
0:37
You can move your mouse pointer over here and you can see a frame tool
0:41
And by pressing K, you can activate this frame tool by keyboard shortcut
0:47
So friend, first of all, we are going to create one document where we are going to see some properties and a basic of this frame tool
0:54
For that, I am going to go file new and I'm just creating new document
0:59
frame tool fine just press okay so this is our new document now I'm just
1:08
activate this frame tool so right now I'm in move tool by pressing K it will be
1:13
activated now on the top of these you can see there are two properties use the
1:19
mouse to create a new rectangular frame or use a mouse to create a new
1:24
elliptical frame so right now I'm just selecting this rectangle one and I'm
1:28
creating frame like this just drag from your mouse and you can create a frame
1:33
now friends if you look here in your layer panel we will see that Photoshop
1:39
added the frame on its own separate frame layer so these are our original
1:45
layer okay blank layer and this is a frame layer now the thumbnail on the left
1:52
represent the frame itself indicate by a small frame icon in a lower right as you
1:58
can see and the right thumbnail on the right is for the content inside the frame
2:04
since there's no content yet the thumbnail is just filled with white now friends
2:11
we are going to see how you can embedded one image inside this frame so for that
2:16
you need to go to file and here you can see place embedded okay just click here
2:23
so friends now you need to go to the location now friends just
2:28
click the image you want to import inside this frame so right now I'm just
2:33
click on this image and just click on place after clicking on the place this image
2:41
directly embedded inside this frame now if we look again and the frame layer in the frame panel we see the content of the frame
2:51
now appearing in a thumbnail on the right. Okay, before it is empty
2:56
Now it is filled with this frame because we embedded this footage
3:01
Now friends, you can also move this footage with your mouse pointer
3:06
We can also transform it. Go to edit and here you can select
3:11
a free transform okay and you can also use control t for that okay you can just
3:17
adjust it like this okay and press enter so friends like this you can use a
3:28
frame tool in a many ways so for now I'm just deleting this one and now I'm
3:33
selecting the frame tool and select this elliptical frame and just creating one elliptical over here like
3:41
this okay now what we are going to do next we are going to do file and here we are
3:47

4:06
transform okay to adjust it like this okay and press enter so friends like this you can use a frame tool in a many ways you can also now move this frame like this
4:25
so friends now we are going to see some example where we are going to check this frame tool directly on the footage for example i have this footage
4:34
now i want to frame this face now what we are going to do we are just selecting this frame and now
4:41
Now here I'm selecting elliptical and I'm just selecting this face and as you can see my frame selected this face but for now it will be not replaced
4:53
Now our main footage in a background okay it will be below this frame footage so what we have to do we are just unlock this and drag and drop to the top of this footage and as you can see it will be automatically inside this frame
5:08
Okay, now with the mouse pointer you can adjust this okay or you can also use a transform
5:15
So friends as you can see you can also use a frame tool in a many other ways
5:21
Now friends next we are going to learn how you can convert a shape or a text to a frame tool So for that I just creating one new document okay where we are going to convert our shapes into frame okay and press enter now I just
5:44
creating one shape for example I'm creating a ellipse tool or okay polygon
5:52
tool fine I'm just creating a polygon tool here I'm applying a slide
5:57
so friends if you don't know about a shape tool so I'm telling you that we already
6:02

link okay just click and you can see that video if you don't know about shapes
6:13
so I'm just creating the shape like this okay just select a move tool and
6:27
you can move this fine now what we are going to do is we are going to convert these
6:37
shape into the frame and then we are going to embed any footage or anything inside
6:44
this frame so for that what you have to do is just go to a layer panel and right
6:50
click on the shape layer and here you can see one option which is convert to
6:57
frame just click here and you can apply a name I'm just applying a shape to frame you
7:06
can also apply the size and press okay so as you can see in a layer panel our
7:13
shape layer is converted into the frame layer okay so friends now you can do the
7:19
same things you can go to file and go to place embedded and you can place any
7:24

7:30
frame tool for that I'm just creating one new document okay I'm just selecting
7:38
okay text to frame and press okay fine now I'm just selecting this text we are
7:50

8:36
thumbnail okay so next what we are going to do okay we are going to add this snow
8:42
footage inside our text to frame just drag and drop over here so as you can see
8:50
this no footage is came on the top of this layer now this is a second technique
8:55
where you can add any footage inside a text now what we have to do is we just need to
9:02

9:32
it and scale out. Okay, now friends, our next method is to go to a file, okay? Here
9:39
you can select a place embedded as we are already learned before in our normal document where we are just creating one frame tool and embedded image
9:50
So you can also use the same technique in a text. Okay, I'm just placed embedded
