00:23 | Welcome to the tutorial of Meet The GIMP. |
00:25 | My name is Rolf steinort and I am recording this is Bremen, Northen Germany. |
00:31 | So what’s the problem with this image here. |
00:35 | There is nothing properly visible what is there on this board. |
00:39 | So I want to have this writings here to pop out. |
00:44 | I want to keep the sky as it is so I double this layer and I choose the curves tool. |
00:56 | And look into this part of the image. |
01:02 | I pull the curve up to get it lighter. |
01:10 | This looks quite good and now I am pulling this black point further up to get a bit dark here. |
01:19 | I think this should work out. |
01:25 | Now I want the writing on the sign board into the bottom image. |
01:32 | So I choose a layer mask and fill the layer mask with black. |
01:43 | Now I am back to my old image and work on the layer mask, which has a white border. |
01:54 | Now i select the paint tool here. |
02:00 | And select white as my foreground colour. |
02:05 | I select a brush and enlarge it. |
02:12 | And now I am painting on the layer mask. |
02:18 | And perhaps I should zoom into the image. |
02:25 | This is better. |
02:27 | Thats good. |
02:31 | You can see the keys which are pressed in my key indicator. |
02:37 | This looks way better. |
02:40 | Now I double this layer again and select overlay mode, and go down a bit with the oapacity to get a little bit more pop into background. |
03:03 | I think this looks better now. |
03:07 | Now I’m ready to save this image. |
03:12 | I am working on copies here so i can just click on save or press Ctrl + S and ofcourse I don’t want to save all these layers here and i am saving this as Jpeg image |
03:32 | For uploading this image to the web there is a need to resize it so I go to Image, Scale Image and I am scaling this down to 600 in width.
|
03:58 | Now I have to sharpen this a bit so i go to Filters, Enhance, Sharpen. |
04:20 | I check for the art effects in the image and here you can see some light. |
04:38 | Now I am saving this as a copy. |
04:44 | I name it small and save it. |
04:50 | And I am finished with this image. |
04:53 | You should always remember 2 things while editing. |
04:58 | 1st is if you want to change one part of the image and keep all the rest intact, then make a copy of that layer and do your changes and then put a layer mask on. |
05:15 | Black hides the image and white reveals the stuff that’s in there. |
05:22 | 2nd thing, if you put second layer over it in overlay mode, the image will have a better contrast and colours. |
05:33 | These are two tricks to get very fast edit. |
05:41 | In this image you can see atleast two problems. |
05:46 | 1st I cut off the feet of these people which would have been nice to have them in there. |
05:55 | And the 2nd problem is these building are falling into the image because I held the camera upwards. |
06:08 | I select the prespective tool. |
06:15 | I select corrective backward in the directions dialog and I select the grid as preview. |
06:23 | I can select an outline or the image but I select the grid. |
06:30 | And when I click into the image, I get this info window here with not so helpful information. |
06:38 | So i pull it out of way and now I have this grid here and all I have to do is align these grid lines with these verticals in the image. |
06:52 | These gridlines will be either vertical or horizontal in the output image and this top line will be the top of the image. |
07:02 | And so I am just pulling this over here. |
07:07 | I look around in the image and i think this is fairly ok. |
07:41 | And now I press transform. |
07:45 | And we have to wait till it transforms. |
07:51 | And here it is. |
07:55 | Now you see second problem here. |
08:00 | These lands is not the best. |
08:03 | So i have to crop this image. |
08:16 | I go to my crop tool. |
08:19 | And I want to crop the side building out and leave only this in their. |
08:28 | Its look’s bit like a square so i click on fixed aspect ratio and keep it as 1 by 1. |
08:40 | Now I have square crop. |
08:45 | Keeping the people into the image. |
08:51 | I think this crop should work. |
08:56 | Click on it, and here it is. |
09:00 | Now i select the Curves Tool. |
09:04 | Getting the high lines a little bit more up for more contrast into that. |
09:19 | Now this image is finished too. |
09:24 | This is the next image. |
09:27 | So what to do with this image.
|
09:37 | I select the rotate tool and zoom into the image by pressing 1. |
09:49 | Here I look for a good vertical section in the middle of the image and in direction i select corrective backwards rotation. |
10:04 | I select cubic interpolation and as preview I select the grid. |
10:12 | Now I click into the image to get the grid lines and now I align these lines with the vertical structures of the house. |
10:24 | And I think this is it. |
10:28 | I have this little window here open which shows 2.90 degrees and I click on rotate and wait for the final result . |
10:40 | Here it is. |
10:44 | Well it looks better. |
10:48 | You can see here that I have plenty of distortion and I should look for the correction of that but now I am cropping this image. |
11:07 | I think this is ok. |
11:13 | I think I haven’t rotated the image properly. |
11:23 | Well I haven’t rotated enough and i didn't selected the right spot. |
11:34 | So let’s do this again. |
11:39 | I undo the steps back by pressing Ctrl + Z. |
12:00 | I select the rotate tool again. |
12:10 | I dont change the settings which were selected previously and now I am setting the centre of the image into this TV tower here. |
12:34 | And now just aligning this to a TV tower. |
12:41 | The TV tower is the dominant part of the image and so if that isn’t straight, the image feels unstraight. |
12:59 | This looks better. |
13:01 | And now I take the crop tool and choose a crop with not too much negative space in it. |
13:26 | Now a last thing perhaps a little bit of curves to bring a bit more contrast into the image. |
13:44 | This is ok. Now I am finished with this image. |
13:50 | This image should be in potrait mode so i have to change this here. |
13:59 | I go to Image, Transform, and rotate 90 degree anticlockwise. |
14:08 | Now I have my image rotated. |
14:11 | When we rotate the image 90 degree, its without loss in the quality which is specially important with jpeg images. |
14:28 | Now let’s get a little bit more contrast to this image and I use the curves tool for doing that. |
14:37 | You can use levels tool or others but I think for me the curves tool is the best. |
14:44 | Just put a slide ‘S’ curve on it and I think we are done , so i save the image. |
14:59 | Now the next image. |
15:01 | To put it all together, for quick editing of your images you need some basic tools. |
15:10 | 1st the rotate tool. |
15:13 | Use corrective mode and the grid as preview and align the grid with the verticals or horizontals. |
15:24 | Then for tilting lines you need the perspective tool. |
15:31 | Again use the corrective mode and the grid and align the grid with these verticals and horizontals. |
15:48 | For correcting the contrast and the lightness of the image, select the curves tool and apply an ‘S’ curve, it is helpful in most cases, or in some cases if you want a softer image then inverted ‘S’ curve and you can see here real fog outside. |
16:23 | And go to Image, Transform menu where you can rotate the image and scale the output size. |
16:37 | Finally filters is important for quick editing. |
16:43 | Go to Enhance and Sharpen. |
16:47 | After applying a lot of tools, as for example rotating or transformation tool, perspective tool or resizing, the image will get softer |
17:02 | And with sharpening you can redo that. |
17:08 | You should get familiar with layers. |
17:15 | 1st double the layer and for example check out what happens in overlay mode or other modes. |
17:26 | There’s a lot to explore and I’ll cover these in sometime. |
17:33 | You see every time I change the layer mode I get a fully different image. |
17:41 | And if you want to change only one part of the image add a layer mask and fill the stuff you want to see in the image with white. |
17:58 | And the stuff you don’t want to see in black. |
18:05 | Gray is partly visible and its transparent. |
18:12 | And I think this was it for this week. |
18:17 | And I hope to see you again next week. Good Bye |
