Masking word as itself implies, mask, which hides the object behind it. When we create a layer mask for a particular layer, that layer gets converted into a mask on the layer just beneath it. That means when we remove some portion from that mask, the layer below the mask will be visible through that portion. Another thing to note here is that masking works in two colors, black and white.
Black colour is used to reveal the image behind the mask and white color is used to hide that image through the layer mask.
Layer masking technique is widely used in creating movie posters because use of paintbrush and it's principles give a wonderful graphic finishing. Here are two images that I had created recently in photoshop using masking technique
