“Skin the Cat” is challenge that I often give redrawers when I’m either teaching one-on-one or testing for proficiency.
The rules are simple. Take a small redraw that you just did redo it without using the tool or method you used before. And do it again, and again, until you run out of ideas.
A lot of editors get comfortable with what they know. However, learning the nuances between different tool, filters, selection methods, and so on means that you’ll know the best and most efficient method when you come across that kind of redraw again. Also, when the method you’re comfortable with doesn’t work for some reason, you’ll have a method to fall back on.
Remember! This video is not inclusive of all the ways to do this redraw!
