Quick demo of the ClipDrop plugin for Adobe Photoshop
TLDRIn this quick demo, we explore the ClipDrop plugin for Adobe Photoshop, showcasing its powerful features for seamless image and text integration. Starting with the mobile app, we capture an image of a jacket, which is then imported into Photoshop with a non-destructive mask for easy adjustments. A sketch from the same collection is added next, followed by sourcing an image of a fox from the web, clipped and extracted with precision, maintaining fine details like the hair on the tail. Finally, an inspirational poem about autumn is found online, extracted as text, and pasted onto the mood board. The entire process is efficient, highlighting ClipDrop's ability to enhance creativity in a short amount of time.

📱 Using Clip Drop for Mood Board Creation
The video script begins with the process of using the Clip Drop mobile app to create a mood board. The first step involves loading the app and taking a picture of a jacket. The user can then adjust the viewport and take the picture, which is then easily pasted onto the document. A non-destructive mask feature allows for adjustments such as removing unwanted parts, adjusting edges, and contrast. After extracting the jacket, the user proceeds to add a sketch from the same collection by framing and pasting it onto the mood board. The sketch is then resized and positioned. To enrich the mood board, the user adds an element not present in the room, such as a fox, by searching the web, selecting an image, and using Clip Drop to extract it with preserved details like the hair on the tail. The fox is then dragged and dropped onto the mood board and scaled down to fit. Finally, to complete the mood board, the user adds a text element, such as an inspirational quote or poem, by searching the web for an autumn poem, extracting the text using Clip Drop, copying it to the clipboard, and pasting it onto the mood board using Photoshop. The entire process is completed in a few minutes, showcasing the efficiency of using Clip Drop for mood board creation.
