These can include borders, lights, and patterns to name only a few. Masks are great for giving images that little extra touch of magic. PicsArt masks are sorted into 4 categories: Border, Lights, Bokeh, and Artistic. PicsArt not only offers a wide array of options to choose from, but allows users customize masks individually on the fly.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>With the Camera Mask option, masks work in the same way, except that instead of being laid over a previously captured image, this feature lays masks over a live camera, allowing you to shoot photos through the mask. &nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>Below is a practical tutorial to acquaint users with the Camera Mask feature. We have broken down the process into 6 easy steps.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h3>Step 1.<\/h3>\n<p>Select the Camera section from the main menu to open your camera.<\/p>\n<h3>Step 2.<\/h3>\n<p>Click on the masks icon, which looks like two small overlapping diamonds located in the menu bar.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/cdn1.picsart.com\/1762163214.jpeg\" alt=\"\" width=\"600\" \/><\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/cdn1.picsart.com\/1680521387.jpeg\" alt=\"\" width=\"600\" \/><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h3>Step 3.<\/h3>\n<p>Select the small plus sign in the masks menu bar to choose from different types of masks.<\/p>\n<h3>Step 4.<\/h3>\n<p>Choose a mask from the menu to apply it to your camera.<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/cdn2.picsart.com\/2084968168.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"600\" \/><\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/cdn5.picsart.com\/5173159397.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"600\" \/><\/p>\n<h3>Step 5.<\/h3>\n<p>You can use the blue sliding bar to digitally zoom in and out, as well as the fade bar to customize the intensity of your mask.<\/p>\n<h3>Step 6.<\/h3>\n<p>Take your photo. Don&rsquo;t be afraid to take as many photos as you like with the applied mask and experiment with PicsArt&rsquo;s many mask options.<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/cdn3.picsart.com\/3238097537.jpeg\" alt=\"\" width=\"600\" \/><\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/cdn9.picsart.com\/9823060284.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"600\" \/><\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/cdn1.picsart.com\/1604515333.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"600\" \/><\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/cdn4.picsart.com\/4702960353.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"600\" \/><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Camera Mask is a new feature for the <a href=\"http:\/\/picsart.com\/install\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">PicsArt App<\/a> that allows users to take photos with mask effects applied directly to the camera.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":20859,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"_yoast_wpseo_title":"","_yoast_wpseo_metadesc":"","faq_show":false,"faq_enable_schema":false,"how_to_show":false,"how_to_show_on_single":false,"how_to_enable_schema":false,"how_to_is_upload":false,"faq_title":"","how_to_title":"","how_to_layout":"","how_to_cta_text":"","how_to_cta_url":"","how_to_image_alt":"","how_to_display_image":0,"faq_items":[],"how_to_steps":[],"footnotes":""},"categories":[1669,4],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-20854","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-inspiration","category-news","entry"],"acf":{"faq_show":false,"faq_title":"Frequently asked questions","faq_enable_schema":true,"faq_items":null,"how_to_show":false,"how_to_show_on_single":false,"how_to_title":"","how_to_layout":"default","how_to_steps":null,"how_to_enable_schema":true,"how_to_is_upload":true,"how_to_cta_text":"","how_to_cta_url":"https:\/\/picsart.com\/create\/editor","how_to_display_image":null,"how_to_image_alt":"","footer_banner_name":"Start your design in Picsart","footer_banner_link_":"\/","footer_banner_button_text_":"Get Started"},"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v25.5 -
