Healing brush tool


There were three different images which were used to get know the Photoshop software. The below three sections have put through to describe how the images were edited from the original photo. The three pictures were desert, Ian Mckellen and a teenage girl face.    
1. Desert
Before  

After







What?
We learned patch tool which deletes the objects in one image such as mobile, cars and people.   

 Where?
It was in the class with everyone.  

Who and When?
This picture was edited when Jamie was demonstrating about Photoshop’s patch tool . 

Why?
To learn how to delete an object within the image this can be anything such as car for this practice. Moreover this practice was important as for our DVD cover and the CD cover. This is because covers will be involving pictures from internet which we might need some parts of it and patch tool is the best tool for this as it can remove the exact object we want.     
How?
Firstly we got the picture from VLE and as a practice we wanted to delete the car on the left. Secondly, we used the patch tool which can be accessed by just clicking (J) and it is located at the 7th icon down in the left banner on the screen. As the left car needed to be deleted we went around it including its shadow. This however gave us an object which can be drag and be replaced with the other part of the whole image. For example the car was an object in the desert image and the area around it had desert which looked very similar so the car object was just moved towards the left so the tool can replicate the area on the car. The result shows in the ‘after’ image at the top that the car from the original image has been taken out but still the image looks untouched.
 


2.       Ian Mckellen 
                                                                                Before



 After  





What?

We learned about healing tool which is located in the pact tool (J)


Where?
In class with everyone after the desert picture.

Who and When?
This picture was edited when Jamie was demonstrating about Photoshop’s patch tool in which we had to use healing feature for Ian image.

Why?
To learn how to delete all the marks on the face of a person i.e. making an old person look a bit younger by fixing all the wrinkles on their face. This again is a very useful tool to my project as if there are any pictures which involves any face edition for my actors as healing tool does not only make someone look younger but also edits any kind of spots or marks which appear on the face. This however makes the face more like a model and for this reason it is called healing tool.

How
The first process i.e. the location of the image was same as the desert picture which is VLE. Once the picture was saved to our area or any of the devices we imported to Photoshop which meant we didn’t had to fiddle about with the settings of the page i.e. width and the height. Thirdly, using the path tool (J) for keyboard shortcut in which it had another feature which was called healing tool. This however helped me to edit all the marks and wrinkle on the face of Ian. The process was by clicking alt on keyboard which gives a selection tool to select the area which you want to copy and paste it after. After this you go over the marks with the mouse which generates the area which you selected previously using the alt key. It took long time for me to do as there were many marks but at the end the result was good and you can see it in the after picture.
3. Teenage girl
Before


After 
What?
We learned about spot healing brush tool which is located in the pact tool (J).
 Where?
In class with everyone after the Ian picture.  
Who and When?
This picture was edited when Jamie was demonstrating about Photoshop’s patch tool in which we had to use spot healing feature for young girl.  
Why?
To learn how to delete all the marks on the face of a person i.e. making an old person look a bit younger by fixing all the wrinkles on their face. This again is a very useful tool to my project as if there are any pictures which involves any face edition for my actors as healing tool does not only make someone look younger but also edits any kind of spots or marks which appear on the face. This however makes the face more like a model and for this reason it is called healing tool.
To learn how to delete the spots on the face of the person i.e. making the face look like a model. Alongside the healing tool this spot healing tool is also useful as it is specially designed to fix all the spots which a person has on their face. This is indeed very useful as for media purpose, there is a need of attraction at eye catching as many people will be looking at the images over internet, newspapers etc. therefore the masses would not like if the image contains any marks or wrinkles as this would be classed as unprofessional.
How?
The first process started by importing the image from the folder which I saved the others i.e. desert and Ian image. As soon as we opened the image we used the spot healing feature in patch tool. Secondly, we were trying to delete all the marks and spots which were easily to be seen as this would make my work easier as the bigger work been done on the image and what I will be left with are those which are very hard to see. Therefore to get all the small marks off from the face of this young teenage girl we had to zoom in from the original image and using the spot healing brush we had to right click from the mouse on the spot or the marks after choosing spot healing brush. This however made all the spots and marks disable. There were loads of marks and few spots on the face of the young girl however the spot healing tool made it very easier and after all the hard work the result came that most of the face looked like a model face. The result you will be able to see in the before and after image.
