What is the purpose of a mask in compositing images?

What effect does the 'Overlay' blending mode have in compositing?

A). It blends colors and tones of the top layer with the base layer, creating a mix of both.

B). It brightens the image by applying a white overlay.

C). It adds a shadow effect to the image.

D). It darkens the image by applying a black overlay.

What is the purpose of blending modes in compositing software?

A). To determine how layers interact with each other.

B). To resize images.

C). To add text to images.

D). To change file formats.

In a linear gradient, how does the color transition occur?

A). In a straight line from one color to another.

B). In a circular pattern around a central point.

C). In an angular fashion like a pie chart.

D). In a random order determined by software algorithms.

How are masks used in compositing?

A). To control visibility of specific parts of a layer.

B). To adjust color tones.

C). To create 3D effects.

D). To enhance typography.

What is the purpose of a clipping path in graphic design?

A). To isolate objects or remove backgrounds from images.

B). To add noise to images.

C). To apply filters to images.

D). To duplicate layers in a design.

How can gradients be used in UI design?

A). To create depth and enhance visual appeal.

B). To increase file size.

C). To reduce contrast in designs.

D). To change fonts in text.

How does a radial gradient differ from a linear gradient?

A). A radial gradient radiates color outward from a central point, while a linear gradient transitions colors in a straight line.

B). A radial gradient transitions colors in a straight line, while a linear gradient radiates color outward from a central point.

C). A radial gradient is used for text effects, while a linear gradient is used for image backgrounds.

D). A linear gradient creates a circular pattern, while a radial gradient creates a straight line.

How do clipping paths differ from selection tools in image editing software?

A). Clipping paths create vector-based outlines, while selection tools create pixel-based selections.

B). Clipping paths adjust image brightness, while selection tools resize images.

C). Clipping paths apply filters to images, while selection tools add noise.

D). Clipping paths duplicate layers, while selection tools remove backgrounds.

How can you create a transparent background using a clipping path?

A). By defining a path around the subject and hiding everything outside the path.

B). By erasing the background with a brush.

C). By applying filters to the image.

D). By changing the image resolution.

What role do blending modes play in compositing images?

A). They determine how layers blend and interact with each other.

B). They adjust image brightness.

C). They resize images.

D). They add text effects to images.
