The Masking Brush is one of two tools used for masking filters in Effects, as well as layer masks. When you select the Masking Brush, your cursor changes to look like two concentric circles, one representing the inner hard edge of the brush, and soft outer, feathered edge of the brush. At the center of the brush is either a plus or minus. The plus means that you are painting “in” a filter’s effect, while minus means the brush mode is set to paint out.

I am unable to see the mask as I paint it. Cannot tell why. I have followed the steps in this and other tutorials. Working in Windows. Any thoughts?

I need to select a person (which I did in Magic brush) then I need to change this person into black and white but leave the rest of the photo in color. I figured I could do a copy/paste into a new layer and problem solved.
Or is there a way in the original layer to select the person and change them to B/W while leaving the rest in color.
Or am I using the wrong tool?
