Now click the brush preset picker in the option bar to choose the size and hardness of the brush
1:53
So you can select a brush preset from here. The size of the brush should be slightly larger than the blemish you want to remove and the
2:02
hardness should be set to zero to make the edge of this brush soft
2:07
So right now I make it hardness to zero and my brush side should be little bit larger than
2:14
my blemish size. So this will be fine. Now friends, we need to select a sample point for the healing brush tool
2:23
Now hold down the alt key. As you can see once I select the alt key
2:27
and click on an area of the image that is close to the blemish but doesn have any imperfections this will be sample point that the healing brush tool used to replace the blemish So first of all I am selecting this area So this area getting this information and apply to this blemish

Now that we have our sample point, we can start removing the blemish
3:01
Now click and drag the brush over this blemish area. area like this and as you can see boom or work is done you can release the alt key
3:10
and continue to brush over the blemish until it completely removed and there you

3:23
before image and after using this healing brush tool our images look like this
3:30
Like this. See? Just use Alt key to getting the pixel information around this blemish area
3:38
and now this information is applied to this blemish and your work is done
3:43
Like this you can remove this other blemish part. See? Here also
3:51
So the blemice is now removed and your image looks much better than before
3:59
So friends now we are going to see these options over here
4:05
So first of all I am taking this footage and now we are going to apply our healing brush tool to remove this lamp from this footage
4:13
So first of all I am showing you this mode. Okay, the mode option gives the different option of brushed with which we can work
4:22
So as you can see in mode you can see a normal mode, replace more, multiply more, screen more, darken mode
4:28
green more darken more lighten more color and luminosity mode so according to your
4:33
requirement you can change your mode now friends beside these you can see a source
4:39
this will tell us that two options from where we can pick our source for
4:44
healing our destination first is sampled and second is pattern so friends in this
4:51
first option we pick our source from the image by placing our brush over the place
4:57
which we want to pick and pressing the alt key from the keyboard
5:01
As we already see in this example, in this example we see that sample source. Okay
5:08
And now what is a color source? So friends, in the second option
5:13
a pattern dialog box appears from where we choose our pattern and patch the destination with the pattern For example first I using this sample and using this healing brush tool
5:26
Now I'm just increased the size of this brush. I'm getting this area
5:32
By pressing the alt key you can get this area and now I'm just remove my alt key and start
5:39
dragging on this area. So as you can see, that pixel is getting apply on this area
5:48
But as I already told you, that overuse can result in an unnatural looking image
5:54
Therefore, it is recommended to use it carefully. So friends, our next option is pattern
6:00
Just select this pattern and from here you can select a different different pattern
6:04
For example, I am selecting this pattern. And now you can apply this pattern on this image like this
6:13
So this is a second source. Now friends, besides these you can see a sample option
6:22
Okay, so what is a sample option? Inside this option you can see a three category, current layer, current below layer and all layer
6:32
Now current layer means the layer we are working on right now
6:36
Current and below means the current layer and below this one more layer and all layer means
6:42
all layer inside this panel. So friends the sample options let the brush know
6:50
which layer to sample the pixels from for blending there are a option in a
6:55
sample current layer current and below and all layers. So friends beside these
7:01
you can see one more option which is called turn on the ignore adjustment layer
7:06
while healing. So friends if this option is turn on then the tool
7:12
the adjustment layer while sampling the pixel. Okay? Beside these, you can see use pressure control
7:20
Now, this option is valid only when using a graphic pen tablet to control the brush size and flow
7:27
So, whenever you're using a graphic tablet, then only you can require this option
7:33
Now, beside this you can see a diffusion. This option determines the amount of blend that would happen
7:41
default the diffusion is given to 1 it has to range value from 1 to 7 so you can change your
7:48
value from here like this so friends like this you can remove a many unwanted part from your footages for example in this footage I want to remove this clock So simply I am selecting my healing brush tool and now I want to increase the size of this brush
8:07
So you can use a bracket to shortcut increase and decrease or else you can also go to this brush preset
8:15
And from here you can increase or decrease the size of the brush
8:19
But make sure your size of the brush is little bit larger than the obvious
8:24
the object you want to remove. So I want to remove this object so my brush sides
8:29
should be little bit of larger than this pot. So I'm just press Alt key from my keyboard
8:34
okay like this but before that you need make sure your source will be sampled
8:43
So for that I'm go to source and selecting this sample so that I can apply a sample
8:50
on a particular object. So I'm just selecting the sample pixel from here. And now whenever
8:58
I am dragging my brush over this footage and as you can see this brush is getting
9:06

9:14
in better way. So first of all I am changing my brush
9:19
from here okay I am increased the hardness and diffusion should be two okay selecting this part
9:32
