Could anyone explain how the fella in this YouTube video is changing the shape of the girls face. He appears to spray red paint on the area he wants to change, then converts the paint into a selection which he then uses to change the shape of the selected area. It first happens at about 49 seconds into the video when he works on her chin. Unfortunately the resolution of the video is too low to work out how its done.

TIA,

Colin

No brainer. He used the select tool and then edit-warp. In all, it’s just cheap Photoshop stuff.

Many different steps and several different tools. And because the video is way too small, and he speeds (hiding the command) thing up way too fast to be able to give all small detail. But in general

1. He uses multiple layers to change skin-tone of some area’s. This is when he use paint brush (probably combination with erase, masking, opacity etc.)

2. He uses sponge/smooth command to do something to the skin-texture (probably smooth it?)

3. He use Liquifly to change the shape of the chin and other areas (Liquify is a very useful command for retouching). He also use other tool to do the similar and it could be some type of plug-ins?

Using Liquify

1. You mark the area you want to change then select the "Liquify" command

2. ZOOM IN large enough to see small detail, and make sure the BUSH is LARGE so it will spread the affect to wider area. Then just use the Push/Pull command to adjust the shape.

*BUT* it won’t end up there, or it may be OK for small displaying or to impress someone. But for the LARGE PRINT you will have to fine-tune the liquified area (or if you zoom in large enough then you will see the error).

If a question does not appeal to you, ignore it. Be patient with people who do not know as much as you.

Most people who purchase Photoshop start by being inexperienced, and they may not know that there is a help facility, or know which topic to look for in the index. They are not lazy or stupid, and calling them that will make other people reluctant to ask questions.

I don’t use the tool to know where it’s located, but I believe I have heard or even seen something similar before. It also look similar to some plug-in (Humansoft and 1-2 others I don’t remember the companies)

well the in the video the final result is still ugly
and not really more artistic than the original
the link was fun though cause I surfed to some other interesting vids

but the techniques shown are basic for all retouchers (of portraits)

clone and heal skin imperfections (remember folks not to make flat doll faces>> leave some shading!!)
dodge and re color eyes, add hi-lights
color in lips cheeks to add makeup, burn dodge etc
remove color casts from skintones, add back shadows
enhance hair thickness (could’ve been much better) and color use liquefy to shove in and squeeze jaw lines, elongate noses, puff the lips etc.
I am not a fan of cloning one eye and flipping it, unless there’s no other choice
it always looks odd
real faces are rarely perfect symmetry,
try to avoid over doing it unless you go way over into artistic impression of a photo
just because you can does not mean you should
pasty flat skin looks weird as pimples
it’s a fine line between natural and over worked

the use of the warp was interesting
I am using CS and it does not have that tool
but so far I haven;t missed it

I made a models legs longer the other day using select for the bottom of the frame, feathered a lot for a nice transition >enlarge canvas size> transform and so far liquefy has been a great tool and all I needed for the jawlines, waistlines, bulgy fabric, shoulder too hunched, fat noses I love it

http://www.flickr.com/photos/kw-retouch/501417512/in/set-721 57600005452893/ this is one "over the top" just to show what fun you can have with it the original is not posted
the before version is already retouched by the "normal" amount

Lots of abusive language and next to no demonstrated skill by anyone.

So it is! Many thanks. And thanks to the others that have already mentioned it. I’ve been faffing around in PS so much looking for the right tools that I’ve lost the plot. I’ve finally got it cracked late last night though:

1) Press Q for quick mask.
2) Select a paint brush and set size and hardness to something appropriate.
3) Select the area that needs shaping, changing size and opacity ect… as appropriate.
4) Press Q again to change the mask into a selection.
5) CTRL + i to invert it.
6) EDIT > TRANSFORM > WARP to get the grid gizmo.
7) Change shape as needed.
8) Click the tick to accept the changes and sit back and admire your handy work…

I just need some practice now, this worked a treat for me, but the results didn’t look all that professional. But practice makes perfect.

Thanks for the help!

True. Help files are mostly so discouraging (imho) I see them as a last resort. I’ll google the web first, then google groups, and if I get stuck I have a quick glance in the Help function, usually to come up with zilch, before asking in usenet or some forum. (The worst help system is Windows’ own. I can’t stand that stupid dog and his majestic ignorance.) If it weren’t for PS I’d have wiped XP completely. Luckily it’s only in a VM on my linux box and not taking up a whole pc)

And I don’t call myself experienced at all, I have been working with ps since version 2 and still there are tons of things I don’t know about, and seeing what people pull off with ps *like in the video* I feel humble, very humble.

The only moment I feel I achieved something is when I fix up some damaged photo of a friend while they’re present, the reactions are often in the "wow" category, even when I think it’s a measly job I’ve just done, more a matter of knowing how a tool works and how to attack a given problem. In the land of the blind…

To OP: look up ‘quickmask selection tutorials’ in google, there’s plenty of examples out there.

For fine retouching I would go for liquify, even that I have never used Photoshop’s Wrap but I have tried few similar by third parties before Adobe added to Photoshop).

Wrap may be ok for other thing like correcting lens distortion (I know there are specific tools for this) … and I may give it a try someday to see the difference.

In that case, welcome to the ‘community’. IF I may be so free as to give some advice: experiment all you want, but don’t go overboard and try to master every technique all at once. And match your expectations to your experience and skill level. Photoshop can be frustrating if you only see the brilliant things the ‘zen masters’ come up with.

Start with the basic skills, jot down notes and new discoveries. Save work often. Notice the things you really like to do, and those you find annoying or boring.

Look for beginners tutorials. Try them. Reading 10 ain’t half the value of actually doing 1 yourself (imho).

Use every filter out there, but be aware most of them rarely produce a nice end result. Be selective of what you show your peers, their moral support can be crucial at times, so don’t lose it upfront by overloading them with everything you tried.

If you are the blogging kind, maybe a nice idea to blog about your development and new findings. If not for others, it can be stimulating to see how far you’ve come yet.

Ans lastly, don’t be afraid to ask things here, just use common sense, look up things first and if you really get stuck write a message. Be as specific as you can. If you follow all that, know there ARE no stupid questions. What seems obvious to me doesn’t have to be obvious to someone else.

Again, welcome, enjoy your new hobby! And good luck!
Sh

With Photoshop I would suggest not too hungry to try everything but bauilding up a good solid foundation, then you should be able to learn more from the very basic commands. There are plenty of good free video tutorials available somewhere in the web, but I wouldn’t want to start from middle of nowhere (or little too much for you to catch up). I would suggest something like

– Joining some forum like DPreview’s Retouching Forum (lot of them but I don’t remember them all, and some forum software isn’t friendly or require to register to read etc. so I don’t join them), there many people post some images need to be retouched, fixed etc.. and you just download the same image to play along with others.

This way you can compare yours with others’, and you can learn some TIPS (they usually include step-by-step instruction) to improve your skill

– After you know few basic standard commands (it may takes months or years of practicing to be able to master few basic command) then you may be able to follow and tanke advantage of some video tutorial.

– And I always suggest the newbie NOT TO toy with plug-in but spending their valuable time to master Photoshop’s built-in options/features.

– A good start and good chance to learn lot of newer commands, tricks etc. is fixing some family old photo. You may ask other to work with you but not doing all the work for you so you can impress your family <bg>

It’s based on my very own experience, and I have some rules of my own as well.

– I don’t work on low-rez image because I want to sharpen my retouching skill *not* fixing damaged photo, even I am more than capable of (I started with 80-100+ years old B&W photos, and even turned into color etc.)

– No plug-in, well I actually use 2 simple old plug-ins to help me with the portrait work that I can use Photoshop command’s but it’s quicker with plug-in (nothing fancy but very simple plug-in).

That’s about it! and good luck!

Because before Photoshop added its own, there were several third party plug-ins have been around years before Photoshop’s built-in. IOW, even I haven’t used Photoshop’s built-in but I have known it years before you have the chance to smell it <bg>

To OP: look up ‘quickmask selection tutorials’ in google, there’s plenty
of examples out there.

Many thanks, Schraalhans. I’ve been using PS since… about 11 days ago so need all the help I can get. 🙂

in that case: http://www.russellbrown.com/tips_tech.html

Russell Brown sure have quite a few good video tutorials, but they are probably too much for beginner.

Well, I knew nothing about ps but learned a lot just by watching those (and other) videos.
After some trial&error the light goes on and you enter a new dimension 🙂 Check out the "cool links…" too.

Because before Photoshop added its own, there were several third party plug-ins have been around years before Photoshop’s built-in. IOW, even I haven’t used Photoshop’s built-in but I have known it years before you have the chance to smell it <bg>

Bullshit. I’ve had PS since day-one, bubba.

Too much bullshit in your head to think right <bg> And I don’t know what you have had PS from day one have anything to do with too much bullshit in your head to have wrong thinking <bg>

Of course you can see and may learn something from what you never seen before, but you may not be able to see the way others who have more experience with Photoshop can see. That’s one of the reasons why I suggest to join some retouching forum to work together with others who have more experience to learn the basic commands. Then when you look at some advanced video tutorial you can learn much quicker (rather than just knowing what Photoshop is capable of).
