Open the "boat" footage from the document, and then select the Pen tool in the toolbar. Using the Pen tool to click on the edge of the boat to increase the anchor point, the following gradually increases the anchor point along the edge of the ship, knowing that the last anchor point coincides with the first anchor point. Then press the right button on the delineated area and select Create a selection in the pop-up menu. Press Shift+ctrl+i to reverse, and then press DELETE to remove the background.

When the layer is in the state of free conversion, press the right button to pull out the free transform menu, select Oblique Cut. It is necessary to make the hull of a ghost ship by controlling the shape of the transformed vessel. First, select the control point in the lower-right corner and drag it to the right, and then select the top midpoint to drag down. By analogy, adjust the position of other control points to make the hull. Specific adjustments are indicated in the following figure.
