All language subtitles for 39-RetouchingDetailsInPhotoshop.mp4

We are in

to Photoshop.

I'm going to show you,

kind of just a few things.

Obviously, we're going to go through
the whole entire process.

I don't need to show you how to use the
healing tool, but I do want to show you

basically what I would do

to finesse this image.

And so I'm looking to remove some
distractions.

So for example,

let's do this.

There we go.

So for example,

I've got this flare thing over here
that I've got to get rid of.

Things like that.

This exit sign I want to get rid of
back over there, because it's green.

And unsightly,

there's also.

This was the railing that we had to
take out.

It's up against the side over here.

I'm going to take that out.

I've got this red bucket, which I think
is a bit distracting.

This flare over here.

I think these lights up here are also a
little bit distracting.

So i'll probably take those out, or at
least minimize them,

as far as

the subject.

I'm going to remove this light and
replace it with another one, because I

don't like the different
embellishments.

I want something that's a little bit
more consistent.

I'm going to repair

this flare right here.

So you don't see it as much.

And then I'm going to fix the edge of
the hair a little bit

from there.

I mean, obviously you treat it like a
regular old beauty retouch,

but there's not really a whole lot of
stuff that I would necessarily have to

do.

I get to

get away with

clone stamping it

let's go too current

and below

this.

Sometimes this kind of stuff is really
effective

with

using frequency separation.

Sometimes, like the removal of these
things can definitely be easier

with frequency separation.

But sometimes we can just get away with
stuff like that,

nice and easy.

This is also pretty

consistently

dark areas.

There's not really a whole lot of
detail.

the way in which I clean that stuff up

isn't hugely problematic.

Maybe i'll kind of remove this stuff as
well

with a little bit of a healing,

ok, something like that.

That looks pretty good.

That's just

at a curiosity.

See if this fixes that.

Yeah, that works.

Well, I'm ok with that.

Ok.

And over here it's a little bit
trickier,

because

at the base of the poles,

I mean, fortunately, everything's kind
of out of focus, so you don't really

see it as much.

But what I'm going to do

is clone stamp

this edge down, and I'm just basically
going to reconstruct the wall a little bit.

So we're just going to do this here,

something that looks like that,

and we'll bring this down, just line it
up, use that smart preview,

and

kind of clean it up a little bit

with that.

kind of rebuild that edge.

It looks fine,

and maybe we'll darken it a little bit,
because it would have been a little

darker.

We'll just give it a little burn.

Yeah,

not too bad.

Ok, that gets rid of

my weird little

fence in the back.

Ok,

as far as over here,

I'm going to come through.

I'm going to just basically cut this
out.

I'm going to create an edge, and I'm
going to use the clone stamp again.

So I'm just going to

trim a little bit of this dress

off,

give myself the gap here.

Ok, grab my clone stamp,

take this,

bring it right over.

Maybe you have to

rebuild it a little bit better.

Looks like that,

something kind of like that.

Ok,

and that gives me a little bit of a
hard edge.

So I just grab

my blur tool,

blurtool, and I just run it right over
that edge.

And that kind of gives me that a little
bit, which I think, is fine.

It's fine.

Ok.

So I'm going to do a little bit more
clean up

around the edge of the hair.

And I'm going to do the same thing that
I did on the dress below with this.

So, again, trim a little bit out of it.

Create your constraints

stamp.

Take it, move it in

a little bit,

and voila it's gone.

Blur the edge.

You can also do this with a pen tool.

Probably a whole lot more exacting with
the pen tool.

I love the pen tool, but sometimes I
can, I'm totally fine.

Just quick little

selection, blur it.

Good to go.

Now, up here, it gets a little bit
trickier.

So, like, this would definitely be a
better instance to use the pen tool.

But just to

keep things relatively consistent,

I'm going to cut a little bit off the
neck.

And so I just think that that hair over
there is a little bit distracting.

So I'm going to give her a cleaner edge
to the jaw,

you know, something kind of like that.

Ok?

And when you look at it from a distance,

I messed up down below

let's, erase this a little bit, and we
go, ok.

So when you see it from a distance,

definitely looks a lot better

in terms of the jaw.

It gives her that nice clean shape and
line, very easy to pull off

up here.

This is a similar thing.

We just do a little bit of stamping
right around the edge.

They're also, like, it's a really great
frequency separation.

Methods to do a very similar thing
here.

And

that probably be what I would use if I
really wanted to make sure that this

was correct and to the best of my
ability, but for the sake of speed,

which is kind of what I'm showing you
today, that it can be pretty easy and straightforward.

This is pretty effective as well.

I'm just removing a lot of these
flyaways.

Remember, the background is pretty out
of focus, so you're not seeing

a whole lot of loss of information here
to anything that you're probably going

to be missing.

Especially when you start seeing this,

you know, full size,

it just, it completely goes away.

Oops.

Just, you want to follow the lines of
the space and

try to keep that as clean and realistic
as possible.

Now, what i'll usually do here, because
you can see that the edge of this looks

not great, I will like, grab, like, a
mask or an eraser tool,

and kind of just,

this is my quick way to blend hair back
in.

I just kind of draw it

let's turn that opacity down.

And I just kind of do this over the
edge,

and it kind of

gives me a little bit of

that hair edge back,

organically.

So there's the

fake edge, and there's the one that
looks a lot better.

So I'm just basically I'm drawing hair,
but it's not going to where I'm kind of

drawing the strands,

but it's not going to bring everything
back, so it's going to kind of

trim it in, but it's still going to be
grounded

a little bit more in reality.

So this is kind of my way that I fake
bringing back

hair.

When I trim it up pretty heavily, I
just kind of draw it a little bit right

along the edge.

It takes me a couple minutes,

but man, it looks way better.

Like, take a look at this,

right?

And she still has that really beautiful
glow all the way around, like, you

still get the idea, it's just a much
cleaner version of it.

And that takes me, you know, all of a
couple minutes.

The thing about

lighting with

that rimlight is, especially when
you're doing here,

like, it highlights everything, so
strong backlights will definitely

create that effect,

all right?

So, I mean, you can see that this looks

pretty good right now.

If you want to get into turning this
into a beauty retouch,

that's a whole other thing.

And I'm not going to get into let's
make this a beauty retouch.

But what I am going to show you is how
I would

liquify this a little bit.

And I'm going to do a quick little

color adjustment on it.

So I'm going to liquify it first.

And the way liquifi needs to work is we
have to put it on a brand new layer.

So

I'm going to command option shift e

on a Mac it's control, option shift e
on a pc that's merge, visible on a new

layer.

And so what it did is, you can see that
it combines both of these layers into a

brand new layer.

So that now when I go to liquify,

it's

all on one.

Ok?

Now, this is pretty pretty processor
intensive, so if you want to just make

that selection and come in to liquify,
you can only liquify part of the image

at once, which can be pretty helpful.

So I'm just going to kind of shift this
around a little bit,

kind of show you what you can do to

the shape of the dress.

I'm really just working to make the
lines a little bit more,

a little bit more elegant, a little bit
more natural.

So I'm going to come into the face a
little bit,

and I'm also going to

tweak the edge of the hair, which I had
just cleaned up.

This is going to allow me to make it
even better.

So if you want to come in and shrink
that down a little bit, make that edge

a little bit

smaller and tighter.

You can do that.

Another cool thing is

you can grab the

pucker tool and you can run it right
along the edge, and it's going to make

messy hairs

a little bit neater.

So that's a cool one too.

That's the pucker tool.

That's pretty cool.

I'm going to, I'm going to just reshape
this a little bit, give myself some

kind of really nice,

flufy lines

with the hair,

and we go, that looks pretty good.

Something that maybe looks like that.

Yeah, this fun.

And so it shouldn't look hugely
different,

but it definitely is like a tighter,
cleaner version of it.

I used this a lot to fix hair and
wardrobe, probably more so than almost

anything else.

Wardrobe is one of the biggest things
that I use the qualified for.

It makes close fit much, much better.

And so, you know, what I did down here
was,

I just reshaped it a little bit,

kind of

tried to fix the distortion on that
pelican case

that was poken out on the left hand side
