I do more video editing than photos - I wondered if Affinity is thinking of doing a video editor or if anyone had a low-end one (I basically just chop off the beginning and end)
Nice and helpful tutorial. These tools are very easy and useful for small details and quick retouching. A bit more complex "Frequency Separation" process (recommended) works well for retouching and sharpening the entirely photo then, later or in conjunction with it, you may use the above tools for correcting missed or small details. (It's also possible, convenient or even necessary changing the brush size for working different details and areas). •••Thanks for sharing!
Thanks for sharing the tips! They help me a lot as I'm a beginner when it comes to photo editing. I'm wondering if you could make a video on how to fix double chin? There are many video tutorials to do that in Photoshop, but I can't seem to find it for Affinity Photo. Thanks in advance!
Excellent as usual. Well explained. I’m primarily using an iPad Pro and would love to see this tutorial using iPad. I usually get the idea from your Mac tutorials and set about adapting to the iPad but it’d be great to see you do this with iPad primarily. (I struggle with iPad in the healing / clone area) Either way - thank you.
Ally, I always look forward to your videos. If I might offer a suggestion, for retouching, please consider using the clone stamp tool at a higher hardness. This allows for fewer "halos" around the edges and helps maintain the integrity of the skin's texture. Thanks. Take care and stay safe.
Some PS plugins work, and some don't. It's a little hit or miss. You can ask about specific plugins on the official Affinity forums: forum.affinity.serif.com/index.php?/forum/5-affinity-on-desktop-questions-mac-and-windows/
Thank you for having the patience to explain it as well as your dear husband would have done. Excellent, now I understand the purpose of all three brushes.
I have a question unrelated to this tutorial..how do you stop your exported images from coming out 2-3 stops darker than they were inside of affinity photo? I find myself re-editing my images on iPhone apps just to get it back to how it looked in the original export..it's so frustrating!
Great tutorial, Ally. I don’t use the healing brush much so those tips were good to know. My favorite retouching tool for skin blemishes is actually the patch tool. It takes a little time to get used to it but it’s really efficient and much faster than the clone stamp. You can decide the exact size of the patch and from where the replacement is being sampled. Personally, I find the in painting tool to be a little slow and unpredictable.
Well modulated, easy to follow tutorial. Especially as I did know know that the Healing Brush addresses texture. But what about the Blemish Removal Tool? Isn't that useful, too?
I honestly don't use the Blemish Removal Tool. Instead, I use the Inpainting Brush. But if you like the Blemish Removal Tool, then go ahead and use it - to each their own! 🙂
Masks are very very small (for file size), so I would not worry about that. If you want though, you can place a mask on a group (see this video for details: th-cam.com/video/sL9p_BE8t1s/w-d-xo.html
Ally...I love listening to you❣️ You have a very nice voice that is so relaxing 😌 Thank you for this great lesson. P.S. Give my regards to Ezra. I miss him... but I enjoy your tutorials very much too! 😉 ~ Paulette
Hi! Frequency Separation directly when I edit my wife's pic..learned that too from your video..Thanks ! These are the soldiers of Frequency Separation.
Thank you for your video! I have a question: Can I use in this program something similar like patch tool? I usually use it in photoshop if I make retouching. Thank you in advance!
Yes, Affinity has the Patch Tool, just like Photoshop. It can be found under the same group of tools that has the Inpainting Brush and Healing Brush. I just don't use the patch tool very much, so that's why I did not mention it in the video. 🙂
Enroll in the course here. 😊affinity.sale/Retouching101

Thank you! I'm glad you liked the video. 😊

I don't think they are planning on making one anytime soon... 😕

Frequency Separation is amazing. Thank you for sharing your retouching process! 😊
Are you a course is just for retouching on the computer app or do you have retouching on an iPad Pro course?
They are only for the Mac/PC version right now. I will need to make an iPad version at some point. 🙂
You are doing a great job with the tutorials. I enjoy learning from you.
Thank you so much! 😊

Starbuck265 Also with IPad Mini generation 5. Please!
Thank you for the feedback. We are planning on redoing our most popular videos on the iPad at some point. We just need to get around to it. 😅
@@AffinityRevolution // Thanks! But PLEASE, think about to do some in French!
Healing brush tool is my most favorite one on acne !! It works quite so easy and well..
I love it too! 😊

Thank you Anne! 😊
You guys are actually professional and I see a lot of hard-work invested into every video you make. It’s awesome!
Thank you! I'm glad the hard work is noticeable. 😅
Oh my! I have tryed to save "just the good ones" when your videos come out. I'm finding that I save them all. Thanks so much for putting these up!
Wow, thank you so much! I'm glad you're enjoying the videos. 😊
You talk like the Top15 guy
Haha I haven't gotten that one before! 😅
I learn a lot from you Ally! This is exactly what I’m looking for! I bought the basic course and will get this one after I’m done. Thank you!
Than you! I'm glad you're enjoying the tutorials. 😊
Thank you for another much appreciated video. Even knowing the tools, the fixes for common problems were very helpful.
Thank you! I'm glad you liked the video. 😊
Great tutorial, very helpful. Thank you.

Hmmm... it's not supposed to do that. Sorry, I'm not sure why that is.

You're welcome! 😊
Great video thanks. Ruined unfortunately, by Photoshop adverts every 3 minutes! Not your fault of course.
Oh Photoshop, when will they learn? Affinity is the way of the future! 😄
Hey, does using more masks increase file size. Is there a way to combine or edit masks. (Sorry newbie here)
Masks are very very small (for file size), so I would not worry about that. If you want though, you can place a mask on a group (see this video for details: th-cam.com/video/sL9p_BE8t1s/w-d-xo.html
Not gonna lie... I didn't read the title completely and thought it was gonna be a makeup tutorial 😅😅😅
Haha hopefully you weren't too disappointed... 😅
This is just what I needed.
Awesome! I'm glad you liked the video. :)

Thank you! I will pass your support onto Ezra. 🙂
Question: Does this only work on jpeg or can Affinity edit raw also?
Affinity can edit RAWs. 🙂
Thank you so much! I have learned a lot from your videos.
Keep up your excellent work. Best wishes from Portugal.
