Layer masking
In the case of clipping path, a graphic designer is mainly required to draw a path around the image to select the necessary portion. Image masking services are significantly less destructive. A designer only needs to paint over the required area, make a selection, and then use it as needed. This gives the designer more freedom to apply their creativity and expertise.
Channel masking
This technique is related to creating masks with the help of colors. Most images use one of two color combinations:
RGB – Red, Green, Blue
CMYK – Cyan, Magenta, Yellow, Key (Black)
The advantage of using alpha masking is that the designer can select a single color tone and then apply a mask based on it. It is extremely effective in situations where colors look similar or not very distinct. For example, using this alpha masking or channel masking method, a selection of smoke can be made easily.
