Question

Background colour change

Hi!

I'm stitching images of a handbag together to make a 360 interactive image (via a dedicated programme) however the bag needs to be on a different colour background. 

I'm shooting it on white and it needs to be on f7f7f7. 

Each one of these 360 images I have to do will contain about 60 photographs, so I'm trying to work out if there is a quicker way to do this than using the Select and Mask function to cut the bag out and put it on the new background. 

Am I able to select the white background only and change it to f7f7f7?

Thank you!

I'm sure there is a better way when changing backgrounds in bulk and you should get better ideas soon.

I select the white areas with the Magic wand set to 20% tolerance. (change for optimal results)

Then set the Foreground swatch to f7f7f7 using the color picker.

Then Alt + Backspace or Opt + Delete (Mac) to fill with the new color.

Deselect Ctrl or Cmd d

 

After that the rest should be select-fill-deselect using the new color.

Thank you so much! Definitely faster than Select and Mask in this instance - thanks again.
