Duplication/ cloning


Photoshop experimentation - cloning 

I took an image into photoshop and experimented with the clone tool to remove the person. I used the target to decide what to replace the area with.


This is what I achieve using the clone tool to remove the person.

I could change the size of the clone and also the hardness of the cloning stamp tool to be more accurate.

I then used the quick selection tool to select an object and make a copy of the person onto a new layer.
I experimented doing the same task but using the pen tool which can cut out a more accurate object. I had to place the individual anchors all around the edge of the person which takes longer but it is more accurate as you can get a curved edge.

Adding motion blur I picked a picture where everything was shape and one where a subject could be blurred. First we make a background copy of the layer. I also made the background a layer. Then I go to Filter> Blur > Motion Blur Then add a mask to the layer.  I then used the eraser to rub out the person on the original layer to present the blur.
