This is you're going to be talking about one of the coolest filters in Adobe Photoshop. And it's liquify filter, where we can be doing some tweaking within our image. And here we have my friend Anwar again, and we're gonna be applying liquify filter on his image. We have our image already as a Smart Filter. And when are we going to filter, selecting liquify. On the left side, we have some tools to liquefy our image or edit that one.

And now it's on face tool. However, we're going to be starting with that tool in here, forward warp tool. And we can be warping pixels within our image. Let me enlarge that brush using square brackets as usual. Now, let's maybe start tweaking that bet bit puffy something like that. Now he has the coolest bet ever.

I don't write sight we have some settings for our tools. So for instance, now we have brush tool options we have size, pressure, and we have density and rate. And we have face aware liquify. We're gonna be talking about face tool in a while, so let's collapse that one. Then here under view options, we have show mesh, as it's showing us what's happening to our pixels. So if we start zooming from here, clicking the zoom icon, we can be moving a bit.

We can see that our mesh is distorted in that area and we can be reconstructing or image clicking that one reconstruct or even can be removing old distortions using Remove old or maybe you can be restoring some areas using that tool in here reconstruct tool. And if we start clicking in that area we are gaining or restoring these areas within our mesh, and that mesh is going back to normal state. However, I'm going to undo that because I liked that bet. And I'm going to be disabling that mesh. Also we have smooth tool, which can be smoothing that effect a bit. If you feel it's quite intense, you can be smoothing that one a bit.

However, I also liked it as toes. So I'm going to undo that. Then we have to our tool where we can be twirling elements within our image just like that. It's rotating pixels, who's in your image. Do we have pocket tool which is working like a black hole, this will be sucking everything was in these areas where you're clicking. And we have the opposite tool for that one bloke tool, which can be floating everything within your image.

So it can be floating these areas once again hovers. Now they are quite distorted. And we have Bush left tool as well, where it can be pushing your pixels in a certain direction. How are probably we need to be cranking down density a bit. So let's undo that and reducing density and we can applied that way instead of a single line straight line to have that surreal effect within our image, if only Salvador Dali had these tools, his life would have been much easier. And also can be masking some areas to protect them.

So for instance, let's say we need to be to where link that area of or bet or distorting that one a bit, we can be selecting our mosque, we can be painting over hand to protect it from our tools, now selecting maybe that tool war tool and tweaking our bets even more. Now, it's not affecting that area. Anytime can be removing that mask by selecting throw mask tool To remove that air Now move into the coolest tool within liquify filter, and it's face tool. And what's really amazing about that filter is it can be detecting faces in a very good way. So let's even zoom further. Now if we start hovering over any area within the face, we'll be seeing different controls for eyes, nose, and we have mouth and also overall head as well we can be increasing height of forehead or reduce it's reducing that one.

And also we have more precise controls on right. So here we have eyes, and we have nose, mouth, and face shape. And also as in mouth we have smile so we can make him smiling a bit. Even more, just like that. Now is is quite exciting. So let's make it just a little bit okay.

And also can be controlling upper lip or even lower lip to make it smaller or even bigger for ladies who like to increase the lip size now we have that tool for you. And also you have mouth words you can be increasing width for mouth or height. That was that's quite scary. Maybe that's nice. So now we are reducing height and maybe we can be increasing smile a bit is looking quite natural because like when you smile your mouth height is getting reduced. And also you have like foreheads can be controlling for him as wind blowing for oil and also we have chin height.

We can be confusing Jim or Joe likes As well can be adding more fats to the cheeks can be adding more fat to cheek. And same as well for face with, you can be controlling that one to add some width to face or reduce it. If for any reason my friend saw that lecture he will be killing me probably, however, I'm not going to be messing with these features. And I'm going to be going for ice, maybe adding some cuteness there so he won't be that mad at me. We can be linking values or unlinking them so we have right and left I can be working on several toys like that. Maybe for as artistic design or converting regular images into a character.

Maybe that can be helpful. However, it's always nice to link both of them if you would like to be precise, and also can be controlling rotation for all So you can rotate eyes as well, or you can be increasing with four eyes. Now he's looking unrealistically cute, and also can be increasing distance between eyes. or narrow them. Maybe wider distance can be nicer. And you have nose height as well.

You can be controlling that. As you can see, it's so amazing. And what's so you can make it narrower. However, to be honest with you guys, if you're going to use that filter, don't go for extremes, because otherwise we'll be turning that person into a completely different one. Unless you're doing that for a specific art direction or design isn't. And anytime you feel you went too far, you can be resetting faces for face one because that filter can be detecting more than a face.

And we'll be seeing that in our next image. So let's move on. RIS cancel for that filter. I'm moving to that image in here, me and my friend in New York streets. And I feel that we might need to apply liquify filter in here because I'm looking too serious and he's quite smiling. So I want to add a smile as well to my face.

So I'm going to be converting my image into a Smart Object Convert to Smart Object, going to filter liquify. Now let's zoom in a bit. Even more. Now as you can see, we have two faces detected within our image. Even I'm wearing sunglasses it's being detected as well. And same as well for my friend.

We've got all sliders in here we can be controlling them, so can be sliding z sliders from here as well. However, if I click here, we have phase one and here we have phase two. selected. And that means if I make any changes in here, they will be affecting my face only. So let's go to add a smile. Yeah, maybe slightly because if I can, because if I increase that one, it will be looking quite weird.

So make it like that. Yeah, just a little bit and maybe maybe reducing mouth height as well. That's looking more natural to me. It's not exactly my smile However, it's quite close to it. Now I don't look that serious anymore within that image, and I can be selecting phase one. So boom for smile as well.

Just a little bit as well and reducing height a little bit. Applying that Okay, now we have our filter applied, you can be checking that one on and off. Oh, you're seeing the difference in here and hope you enjoyed that one. Go ahead and start experimenting that liquify filter on your images, or even your best friend's image, and maybe try showing that one to him and let me know how he reacted to that.
