Warping, Distorting & Directly Manipulating Image In Photoshop

On this quick video Photoshop senior product manager Bryan O’Neil Hughes takes a look how to distort and manipulate part of your image in Photoshop.

Photoshop is a powerful editing tool, one of the most interesting tools inside Photoshop is the puppet warp which allows you to easily manipulate the image and distort it in any direction using key points. In the first example Hughes shows how to change the look of a maasai warrior with a few clicks and save it to the original image.

In the second example (a much more common one) Hughes takes a roof of a building which is dented in one place and uses puppet warp to easily fix it.
