Time	Narration
00:21	Welcome to the spoken tutorial of Meet The GIMP.
00:25	In the previous tutorial I left you with this image.
00:30	I want to make the ship a bit darker in this image.
00:34	And the best way to do this is to work with layers
00:40	So first I zoom into the image where the ship is.
00:52	And I click on the option of adding a new layer, and simply add a new layer.
01:01	I name this layer as Ship and I choose the layer fill type as transparency.
01:11	Now the next step is to reduce the luminosity of all the three colour channels and to do that I have to use the Multiply mode & this time
01:22	I use gray colour to be multiplied with the other colours here, because it helps in getting the ship darker in the image.
01:34	So go to the option of colour selection mode and reduce the value of gray colour by pulling the slider down until I get a nice gray colour shade.
01:52	And now just pull the gray colour into the image and you get a darker image with a dark ship.
02:02	Coming back to the layer dialog, I can control the intensity of gray colour with the help of opacity slider and by turning the gray layer on and off.
02:18	But the effect of the layer is applied to the whole image and I want the effect to be restricted to the area of the ship.
02:28	For doing that I use a layer mask.
02:31	A layer mask defines where the layer should be visible and where it should be invisible.
02:38	I go to the layer named ship and I right click on that layer, and then select the option add layer mask and I select black in Initialize Layer Mask because black helps in hide all the layers & white helps show all the layers.
02:58	And these other options I’ll explain in future tutorials. Click on add.
03:08	You can see the layer has no effect.
03:11	I can switch the layer on & off, but no effect after adding layer mask.
03:18	But I can paint into the layer mask or use some other edit tools.
03:24	And when I paint or use the tools , the effect will be revealed into the image.
03:31	To paint into the layer I use white foreground colour & black background colour.
03:41	I click on the brush tool, go to the option dialog, and select a brush which is 19 pixels in circle.
03:54	And I again go to the layers dialog to check if the layer mask is selected because I have to paint the layer mask and not the layer.
04:06	Let me show you the effect.
04:09	I change the layer mode to normal layer mode & as you see the fore layer in the image is invisible.
04:18	I select a brush here and start painting on the portion of the ship and you can see a gray layer is revealed.
04:30	Now when I select the layer itself & paint, you can see the layer is now painted in white colour and not gray.
04:41	I select the layer mask again and press the ‘x’ key to change the foreground colour to black and background colour to white.
04:51	And start painting with white colour into my layer mask.
04:55	And because of black colour the image is hidden.
05:04	I can undo the unwanted effects simply by pressing ctrl + z and here we are back to paint the layer mask of the ship.
05:14	Now I change the background colour to black and foreground colour to white and start filling the form of the ship.
05:29	I think it’s much easier to paint in normal mode.
05:34	As we get a gray ship after painting in normal mode, it is easier to differentiate from background than in Multiply layer mode.
05:55	To paint into the fine edges of the ship I reduce the brush size.
06:01	You can select a small brush in 3 different methods.
06:06	1st is by using the scale to reduce the size of the brush,
06:12	2nd way is to click the small blue triangle here and select the brush of any size or else you can do that by typing the square brackets.
06:27	Open square bracket reduces the brush size and close square bracket increases the size of the brush.
06:40	I want to use the small brush for the details so I press open square bracket.
06:47	But you can imagine what I have to do here and you don’t have to look over my shoulder for painting the whole ship.
07:00	Now I have finish painting the whole ship with a gray layer.
07:05	And I’ll have to check for the areas where I have overpainted the edge.
07:11	So I switch the layer mode to multiply mode and reduce the opacity slider a bit.
07:19	Adjust the opacity slider in such a way that you get a dark ship in the image.
07:26	And I have done a fairly good job.
07:30	But I am not so happy with the surface of the river in front of the ship.
07:37	And I have to make it a bit brighter.
07:42	So I change the foreground colour to black by pressing the x key and start painting into the surface of the river infront of the ship with black colour to make it less darker than the ship.
08:04	I have to check out this effect once I finish working on the image and do the changes accordingly.
08:13	Now let’s check out the work I have done.
08:17	I zoom into the image using the zoom mode and I can make the ship a bit darker and brighter just by sliding the opacity slider.
08:29	I think this looks good and I have done a good job by masking the layer.
08:38	But I think the colour of the ship is a bit dull and this is possible because the ship layer is above the colour correction layer and they are working before the ship layer so I just drop the ship layer down below the colour correction layers.
08:59	And you can see the change, the colour of the ship gets neutral now.
09:06	Now I look at the whole image and the shortcut key is Shift+ Ctrl +E.
09:14	And I think it is a fairly good balance between the background colour, the birds and the ship, perhaps I should slide down a bit with the intensity of the ship.
09:28	And now it looks better.
09:38	I think this is best.
09:45	When I compare the image , without darkening and the ship layer, the birds and the ship are fairly dark in the ship layer and I think a got a good result by using layer mask for this image.
10:00	I can change the effects with the help of all the layer tools at anytime.
10:08	I nearly forgot a thing that I painted the layer mask with very sharp edge & when I zoom into the image, you can see there is a hard border here and I want a little bit smoother.
10:27	Because this may look a bit artificial, specially in a foggy seen.
10:36	For that I select the layer mask to edit it a bit and choose Filter from the tool bar and select blur.
10:49	In blur I choose gaussian blur and go into the part of the ship and I drop down the value of Horizontal radius to 4 and click on ok and blur the layer mask and you can see the effect that the hard edge of the ship is gone and now it looks good.
11:16	Now I m ready to do some corrective work with the image.
11:22	When you look at the image you can see here a bit of wood in the water and on the left side is half a bird which is cut off at the edge and I want to clone them out.
11:40	So again I choose the zoom tool, and zoom in where the part of wood is and now choose the healing tool.
11:51	Healing tool is bit like the clone tool but it works better in this case here.
12:00	When I select the healing tool I get a circle with the mouse point but I can’t click into the image & there’s a forbidden sign in the mouse point.
12:12	The forbidden sign is because I haven’t selected the heal source and I can do it with the control and click.
12:22	I have to select a good heal source and then I have to press Ctrl and click and I think this is a good place as heal source and now click on the wood part.
12:38	There is a problem here.
12:40	And the problem here is that i am working on the wrong layer.
12:45	I have to work on the background layer and I was trying to do the edit on the layer mask.
12:51	Of course I have to choose a background layer and make a copy of that layer because I don’t want to alter the original background layer
13:01	Now lets try healing tool again.
13:05	And now I have made another mistake.
13:09	My source was this gray layer above.
13:13	And ofcourse I undo this and select a new source here, alright take that here and just click here and it is gone.
13:25	For this part I select this part as the source and click and you can see it’s gone.
13:36	Let’s look at the image in 100% mode.
13:40	It looks quite good, perhaps I should have done it with a little bit greater brush because these dots are still together.
13:53	So again I select the healing tool and select the source and clicked on that dots.
14:05	I think that worked.
14:09	Now I have to disappear this half cut bird on the left side.
14:15	For this I zoom again into the image here , and I select the clone tool.
14:23	Cloning tool is not so complex like healing tools, and I really don’t have a big experience in using this tool as it is new in the GIMP.
14:36	So I have to follow same procedure like healing tool, I just click here as a source, click on the bird here and I think this works.
14:49	Back to 100%. Perfect, this bird is gone.
14:55	I think this image is ready now.
15:00	First I wanted to make this image a bit brighter, but I think I do it as finishing steps andI think it works the way it is now.
15:13	And I want to give this image to print to get a poster from it.
15:19	And the printer uses an aspect ratio of 3:2 and this image has the aspect ratio 2:1, so now I have to change that.
15.33	I can do this with the help of canvas size which is there in image in the tool bar.
15:40	I select canvas size and see that the image is 1868 pixels wide and the height is 945 and for calculating the ratio I use my calculator.
15:58	So I divide 1868 by 3 and then multiplied with 2 which gives me 1245.
16:15	I have to unchain this here, otherwise the width will change too and type into the height 1245.
16:27	Now the image is ok.
16:30	It’ll fit on top and leave a white strip on the bottom and I don’t resize the layers , just click on ok and now I have an image with little bit of nothing on the bottom.
16:46	I have to fill the bottom part and for that I choose a new layer with layer fill type white and use this layer as the bottom most layer.
17:06	This white area in the bottom will be cut off later.
17:10	But I can use it as the clue for the printer.
17:15	The printer is simply a computer with a print engine behind it and test to get some clues how to handle.
17:25	This image is quite unusual here, it is nearly black and white and it has not much contrast in it.
17:36	I select a rectangle here just over the whole image, select the blend tool, the gradient filled with, set the gradient to black to white.
17:52	And now I fill this here up with the gradient.
17:57	Just click and draw a line and now I have the full colour range from black and white in the rectangle.
18:08	I have an area here from balck to full white.
18:13	I repeat this one more time,
18:24	Choosing the blent tool here and this time I use a special gradient called full saturation, it has all the colour range in it.
18:42	And again fill this gradient, now I have hints for the printer how to preserve the image and if the colours are off I can always say here, this was suppose to be red and this was suppose to be green.
19:02	I think this was it for today.
19:06	For more information go to info@ meet the gimp.org or leave a comment on the blog meet the gimp.org or come to the forum of tips from the top floor.
19:26	Tell me what you liked, what I could have made better, what you want to see in the future.
19:33	This is Hemant Waidande dubbing for the Spoken Tutorial project.

 |-
-| 11.40

 |So again I choose the zoom tool, and zoom in where the part of wood is and now choose the healing tool.

 | So I divide 1868 by 3 and then multiplied with 2 which gives me 1245.
 |-
-| 16.15
+| 16:15
 |I have to unchain this here, otherwise the width will change too and type into the height 1245.
 |-

 |Now the image is ok.
 |-
-| 16.30
+| 16:30
 |It’ll fit on top and leave a white strip on the bottom and I don’t resize the layers , just click on ok and now I have an image with little bit of nothing on the bottom.
 |-
-| 16.46
+| 16:46
 |I have to fill the bottom part and for that I choose a new layer with layer fill type white and use this layer as the bottom most layer.

 |This white area in the bottom will be cut off later.

 |But I can use it as the clue for the printer.
 |-
-| 17.15
+| 17:15
 |The printer is simply a computer with a print engine behind it and test to get some clues how to handle.

 | This image is quite unusual here, it is nearly black and white and it has not much contrast in it.
 |-
-| 17.36
+| 17:36
 |I select a rectangle here just over the whole image, select the blend tool, the gradient filled with, set the gradient to black to white.
 |-
-| 17.52
+| 17:52
 |And now I fill this here up with the gradient.
 |-
-| 17.57
+| 17:57
 |Just click and draw a line and now I have the full colour range from black and white in the rectangle.
 |-
-| 18.08
+| 18:08
 | I have an area here from balck to full white.
 |-
-| 18.13
+| 18:13
 |I repeat this one more time,
 |-
-| 18.24
+| 18:24
 |Choosing the blent tool here and this time I use a special gradient called full saturation, it has all the colour range in it.
 |-
-| 18.42
+| 18:42
 |And again fill this  gradient, now I have hints for the printer how to preserve the image and if the colours are off I can always say here, this was suppose to be red and this was suppose to be green.
