All language subtitles for 1. Photoshop Generative Fill

Hey, everybody.

You can now use generative fill feature of Firefly with Photoshop.

Right now it is available in the beta version of Photoshop, but it will be integrated to normal version

in the future.

So if it is already available on your photoshop, when you watch this video, you don't have to install

the beta, otherwise let's see how we can install Photoshop beta in order to install it.

You can go to beta apps tab on the left and find Photoshop.

In this list you should click here the install button and since I already have it, I can open from

here.

All right.

Now I have a dog image in my Photoshop.

And first I want to show you the Replace feature by replacing this dog with another animal.

To do that, I will choose lasso tool from the left and draw the surroundings of the dog.

I am leaving some gaps on purpose so that Firefly will aware of the environment.

Once you select any area on the image, this box will appear and there you can see the generative fill

option.

Click on that and a new text field appears.

This is the place we will type our prompts.

In this case, I just want to say a cat click enter.

And there you go.

Firefly generated three variations of the requested prompt, and you can see the variations on the right.

Just like in Firefly app, we can request more variations as we want.

I guess this selected area is not perfect for cats, but let's see.

More variations.

All right.

Now we have three more variations.

And again, we didn't lose the previous generations.

Okay.

I should say that some cats are weird, but this one is not bad.

But I want to show you a trick.

What we just did during the selection is to draw the borders of the dog.

Right.

So Firefly tried to generate a cat inside of that selection.

I guess that's why it struggles to find a good pose for the cat.

And we got some weird poses.

Let me delete that layer so we can go back to initial phase.

And what we can do here is that we can also select the area just like this, and that will give Firefly

more space and prompt the cat again.

Okay, now we have the results that produced bigger cats, but at least they are not in weird poses

anymore.

But we can also try is to change the prompt by saying running cat and let's see the outcomes.

Okay.

This one looks great.

Except the eyes.

And this one is a cute one, but this leg doesn't look real.

And this is the final one again.

Great.

But guess Firefly struggles with the cat eyes at the moment, right?

And you know what?

I will generate more.

I want to find a proper cat for this image.

And one thing to notice here is that since the image is realistic and not a digital art, it is always

harder to generate a live things which looks real.

Okay after some generations.

I really like this one and the only problem is again with the eyes and actually the left eye.

So let's try to fix it.

Using generative fill feature.

Again, I will select this region and click generate without any prompt while normally giving empty

prompt will remove the object.

But this case is exceptional, so I really wonder if it will remove the eye or will create new variations.

Okay, let's see.

And as always, we have three options.

First one removes the eye completely.

And this is great if you want a pirate cat.

Other variations created eyes, but the size and the color is not matching with the right eye.

So this was not a good idea.

Maybe.

I also want to try one more thing here.

I will select both of the eyes this time and click Generate.

And there you go.

If we can't generate eyes, we can just close them.

And the second variation is also good, I believe.

And this is the third one.

It is so aggressive.

But I hope what I'm trying to show you guys is clear.

Firstly, Firefly is not perfect yet and I don't want to show you only the happy parts.

Sometimes you should spend more time and generate more variations in order to get results you want.

Good thing here is that there is no limit or cost of multiple generations.

Besides, these tools improve so fast, which means it will work very better after a couple of months.

All right.

Next thing we can do with that tool is to extend inwards.

I have a great example here because the front of the jet ski is cropped and this image is landscape

right now.

And let's see if we can convert it.

Okay.

Say I want to post it to Instagram, so I want to change the aspect ratio as well.

I will just select crop tool, extend this while holding option key and you can also give specific width

and height values.

It's totally up to you.

All right.

Now click the image thumbnail here by pressing command control button that will select our image.

But we want to select the empty regions so we can just click Invert here.

Okay, then you can click generate field and here you can again type some explanations, but you can

also leave it blank, which will let Firefly decide and extend the image.

So let's go.

Honestly, I think this is one of the best features of Firefly.

I mean, look at these variations.

I like this one most since it completes the front of the jet ski.

And I think no one even understands that this is not a real image.

Next up, I want to talk about the common mistakes I see on the Internet and YouTube.

As you might already know, Photoshop has an object selection tool.

It works really, really good.

For example, you can select this book on the desk and the same box appears.

Now let's try to replace this book with a coffee.

So I will click generate a fill and type coffee here.

Let's wait for the variations.

All right.

Now, these are not what we expected.

Right.

And I feel that you have an idea about why this happened.

Yes.

Since we selected the image.

Exactly.

Without any gaps or surrounding pixels, it failed.

Besides, the selected area wasn't convenient for a coffee.

Replacing objects in similar shapes is not a bad idea.

But if you want to replace objects with a different size object, like in this example, a better approach

would be delete the object first and then insert a new object.

Okay, so first you can use lasso tool and draw the surrounding of the book with some gaps generate

without any prompt which will delete the book from the image.

These are the variations of the image without the book.

And we can continue with this one.

So select the lasso tool again, draw the region that you want to create the coffee so we can type coffee

here and wait for a while.

There you go.

The reason that they look deleted is the layer order.

So in layer one, we created the empty space and in layer two we created the coffee.

If we move layer two on top, we will be able to see the full coffee.

And I think this is great.

Using object selection tool is not always a bad idea and there is a way to do that properly.

For Firefly generative fill feature.

Let me show you that.

Say that we want to remove this guy on the back.

Let's see the wrong way.

First I will select the guy with object selection, hit generative fill and generate again.

This created new people for alternatives.

And this is again happened because we specifically selected the guys borders and the area that the person

fits.

But you can do instead select the guy again.

And before clicking generative field, click this button.

There is an option to expand the selected area.

So click expand selection and now we can expand as many pixels as we want.

I will try 20 pixels for this example.

Click.

Okay.

And as you can see now we have margin between the selection and the person click generate with this

selection.

And there you go.

Notice how Firefly understands the objects behind of the guy.

Even they are blurry and creates blurry alternatives.

All three variations are great, but I think this one is perfect.

All right.

That was the generative field feature for Adobe Photoshop.

I hope these tips will be helpful for you.
