What can background removal do for my product?

As the name would suggest, background removal is the process of removing the background or rather extracting an object from the background to be highlighted or manipulated as needed. Sometimes referred to as clipping masking, a professional who uses the background removal technique creates a mask that blocks out unwanted material.

While it may seem quicker to just have someone erase the background, you should not use this method. Firstly, when you erase the background using any other method, your photo data is being lost. This means that if in the future if you wish to go back to the original, you cannot do so unless you saved the image as a separate file. In this instance, you would need to redo all of the tedious work required for a professional look. Secondly, when you use an erase method instead of a professional background removal service, you risk creating a pixelated edge to the image. Images which are brought into photo manipulation software, such as the industry-standard Adobe Photoshop, are raster images. This means that there are tiny blocks that make up the image. Using an eraser could create a rough line and give the image a choppy, unprofessional look. Something that you would not want with a professional e-commerce site.
