Using my 20+ years of experience with Photoshop, we\u2019ll cover anything and everything related to cloning\u2014not just the basic stuff you\u2019ll find on YouTube.<\/p>\n<p>If you\u2019re truly intent on becoming a Photoshop retouching professional, you should understand that <strong>the Clone Stamp Tool<\/strong> is not the only way to achieve your goals\u2014in fact, it may not always be your best option for achieving the best results. Photoshop features several different <strong>Clone Tools<\/strong> that you need to master, and this video will help you do just this.<\/p>\n<p>Throughout the video, several tools are dissected and analyzed, including:<\/p>\n<h3>&nbsp;<\/h3>\n<table width=\"90%\" cellpadding=\"0\" border=\"0\" align=\"center\">\n<tbody>\n<tr>\n<td width=\"10%\" valign=\"top\" align=\"left\"><strong><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"\/blog\/images\/misc\/Clone-Stamp.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"35\" height=\"35\" align=\"texttop\"><\/strong><\/td>\n<td width=\"90%\" valign=\"top\"><strong>Clone Stamp Tool<\/strong> \u2013 The Clone Stamp is the oldest, and most effective\u2014cloning tool within Photoshop, primarily because it puts you in complete control. While there is almost nothing this little tool can\u2019t do, it can take years to truly master the art. I\u2019ll get you well on your way.<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td valign=\"top\" align=\"left\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"\/blog\/images\/misc\/Spot-Healing-Brush.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"35\" height=\"35\" align=\"texttop\"><\/td>\n<td valign=\"top\"><strong>Spot Healing Brush<\/strong> \u2013 By taking a sample from the area around it, the Spot Healing Brush Tool can help remove unwanted blemishes from within your photograph. However, because it is an automated tool, its usefulness for retouching purposes is limited.<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td valign=\"top\" align=\"left\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"\/blog\/images\/misc\/Healing-Brush.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"35\" height=\"35\" align=\"texttop\"><\/td>\n<td valign=\"top\"><strong>Healing Brush<\/strong> \u2013 My personal favorite, the Healing Brush tool allows you to fix imperfections such as dust and scratches. Unlike the Spot Healing Brush, you are allowed to select your own sample area, and apply it to wherever you need. Then, Photoshop mixes the color and texture of the two areas together, which can produce some amazing results.<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td valign=\"top\" align=\"left\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"\/blog\/images\/misc\/Patch.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"35\" height=\"35\" align=\"texttop\"><\/td>\n<td valign=\"top\"><strong>Patch Tool<\/strong> \u2013 A combination of the Lasso and Healing Brush Tools, the Patch Tool corrects the image using a sampled area. While it definitely has limitations, if you don\u2019t know what to do or are working inside gradients, this is the tool for you.<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td valign=\"top\" align=\"left\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"\/blog\/images\/misc\/Content-Move.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"35\" height=\"35\" align=\"texttop\"><\/td>\n<td valign=\"top\"><strong>Content Aware Fill<\/strong> \u2013 Frankly, the Content Aware Fill is one of my least favorite cloning tools, primarily because it is completely automated and provides the user with zero control. The Content Aware Fill uses Photoshop\u2019s artificial intelligence, and has been expanded with CS6 and CC.<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td valign=\"top\" align=\"left\">&nbsp;<\/td>\n<td valign=\"top\">&nbsp;<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td valign=\"top\" align=\"left\"><\/td>\n<td valign=\"top\"><strong>High Pass and Low Pass <\/strong>&#8211; This is a bit advanced, but if you want to create perfect skin within an image, the High Pass and Low Pass technique is an advanced method of accomplishing this. This will provide you with the ability to edit details, while leaving color behind.<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h3><strong>Lead by Example<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p><u>What this video tutorial is not<\/u>: This does not involve you staring at your computer screen for an hour and forty minutes while I clone. <u>What this video tutorial is<\/u>: All your cloning options will be <strong>explained in detail<\/strong>, including heavy coverage about skills and <strong>best practices<\/strong>. This video is fully edited content, which means it gets directly <strong>to the point<\/strong>, in straightforward language that everyone will enjoy. In addition, all the topics are intended for Photoshop CC, CS6, CS5, and most of these tools are available in CS3 and CS4, which means that there\u2019s no need to worry if you have an older version.<br \/>\n&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h3><strong>Testimonials<\/strong><\/h3>\n<table width=\"100%\" cellspacing=\"10\" border=\"0\">\n<tbody>\n<tr>\n<td width=\"90\" height=\"75\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"\/blog\/images\/testimonials\/Sue_Erazmus.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"75\" height=\"75\"><\/td>\n<td>&#8220;While it was daunting at first, I appreciate the ability to review it again, to reinforce the concepts.&#8221; &#8211;<em> Sue<\/em><em> Erazmus<\/em><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td width=\"90\" height=\"75\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"\/blog\/images\/testimonials\/Don_Janelle.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"75\" height=\"75\"><\/td>\n<td>&#8220;Great Detail that I will be able to go back, and review later.&#8221; <em>&#8211; Don Janelle<\/em><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td width=\"90\" height=\"75\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"\/blog\/images\/testimonials\/Jeff_Dutton.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"75\" height=\"75\"><\/td>\n<td>&#8220;The best part was use of the tools compared to each other.
