Frequently Asked Questions
Clipping paths are the digital way to cut an item out of a photo. Remember cutting out pictures from magazines? It’s just like that, only digital. (A tip: if you’re cutting out a subject with hair or fur, you probably need image masking — another cutout technique that’s used for more intricate edges.)
Once our clipping path specialists finish the clipping path, everything on the inside of the path is included, and everything outside is removed.
Clipping path allows you to manipulate the background of the subject of your image. You can create white backgrounds for selling products online, or display your subjects in any setting.
Not all clipping paths are alike, so the rates for each project vary. Every image is different, but we follow standard pricing guidelines to make sure your rate is always clear and objective, even if you’re working with a different designer.
Here’s an overview of how we price different clipping path projects:
Clipping path allows you to manipulate the background of the subject of your image. You can create white backgrounds for selling products online, or display your subjects in any setting.
At Path, we outline each image by hand. Automatons and AI can lead to Photoshop fails and unhappy customers. Trained (human) graphic designers have the common sense and keen eye to make sure edited photos look just right.
A simple clipping path is slightly more complex, so it takes a bit more time. Simple clipping paths remove objects that have more edges and curves, like a wine bottle or a car. They also work for objects that have a “hole” in them (like the interior of a mug handle or the inside of a ring or necklace).
A medium clipping path is used for objects with complicated edges. These are typically complex enough that several paths are created and then merged together to get the final result.
A complex clipping path is applied to objects with very complicated edges, multiple holes, and possibly multiple objects or varied levels of transparency. These types of clipping paths are incredibly time-consuming and call for more advanced skills.
This category includes complex clipping paths with additional paths carefully crafted within the product itself.
Sometimes, an object requires so many individual clipping paths that a complex or multiple clipping path just isn’t enough. Super complex clipping paths involve three to four different techniques.
This level of detail is necessary for tough product images where nothing else will look natural. In some cases, we need to use super complex, complex, and multiple clipping paths in conjunction with image masking to get to the perfect finished product.
Spending all day editing sucks the passion out of your work
You need perfect clipping paths and clean photos to attract customers to your products and make them want what you’re selling. But when you’re launching hundreds — or even thousands — of products a week, clipping path edits can take days.
You don’t have to waste all that time in Photoshop doing edits yourself. And you definitely don’t have to stay up too late frantically trying to finish clipping paths on time. We’re betting that’s not what you signed up for when you started doing this work.
