Using the Healing Brush and Patch Tool: An Fstoppers Post Production Tutorial by Sean Armenta

Hello Fstoppers! My name is Sean Armenta, and this is my little spot on Fstoppers called The Post Production Tutorial. If you enjoy these videos, feel free to subscribe to my new Fstoppers PPT Youtube Channel for the latest updates. This time around, we will talk about how I use the healing brush and patch tool in Photoshop. They are definitely staples of any retouching job and while they are pretty straightforward to use, I would like to share a couple of tweaks I discovered to make them work even better.

    I have seen before that you can change the shape of the brush but no one has ever explained why you would want to do that. So thanks for the explanation!

    Thanks for the video, a little advice ? Try not to sound like you are reading from a script and make it more jovial. Have fun with it!
