00:00:10.015 --> 00:00:12.484
GCC Academy

00:00:24.080 --> 00:00:25.400
Hello

4
00:00:25.401 --> 00:00:29.610
I am Webtoon Artist Joomyung, and I'm in charge of this Clip Studio lecture

5
00:00:29.860 --> 00:00:35.180
Clip Studio is a professional webtoon program widely used by everyone

6
00:00:35.180 --> 00:00:38.924
from beginners to professional creators

7
00:00:39.284 --> 00:00:43.659
Nowadays, not only independent creators

8
00:00:43.660 --> 00:00:47.592
but also studios and companies use Clip Studio 
instead of Photoshop for their projects

9
00:00:47.939 --> 00:00:51.899
Clip Studio offers a variety of features tailored for Webtoons and comics

10
00:00:51.899 --> 00:00:58.039
It is a professional program optimized and verified for stability

11
00:00:58.179 --> 00:01:01.519
when creating Webtoons

12
00:01:01.879 --> 00:01:06.401
Today, we will cover the basics of starting with Clip Studio

13
00:01:06.401 --> 00:01:08.477
and learn the essential skills

14
00:01:08.840 --> 00:01:15.100
We will explore how to begin using Clip Studio for Webtoon projects

15
00:01:15.100 --> 00:01:17.906
and maximize its efficiency through various examples

16
00:01:18.220 --> 00:01:22.520
I'm sure this will help you work on your Webtoon project

17
00:01:22.520 --> 00:01:25.760
Let’s start by understanding the basics of using Clip Studio

18
00:01:25.840 --> 00:01:27.500
The flow of this lecture

19
00:01:27.501 --> 00:01:34.234
will cover the program’s structure, interface, canvas setup, and tools

20
00:01:34.248 --> 00:01:38.288
Structure and Interface

21
00:01:38.720 --> 00:01:41.059
When Clip Studio is launched

22
00:01:41.060 --> 00:01:45.128
you can press the blue button on the left side of the interface

23
00:01:45.128 --> 00:01:47.568
to open Clip Studio Paint

24
00:01:53.348 --> 00:01:55.279
Turn off the new window for now

25
00:01:56.379 --> 00:02:02.520
and let’s first go over the basic interface of Clip Studio Paint

26
00:02:02.900 --> 00:02:06.040
When Clip Studio Paint is running

27
00:02:06.040 --> 00:02:09.129
the section at the very top is called the Tool Bar

28
00:02:09.859 --> 00:02:12.619
If you click on each tool in the Tool Bar

29
00:02:12.619 --> 00:02:16.159
you’ll see that all the features available in Clip Studio

30
00:02:16.159 --> 00:02:20.879
are categorized for easy access

31
00:02:21.419 --> 00:02:25.820
Below the Tool Bar is the Command Bar

32
00:02:25.821 --> 00:02:29.121
The Command Bar is a convenient area

33
00:02:29.122 --> 00:02:32.282
where you can place frequently used functions or assign shortcuts

34
00:02:32.420 --> 00:02:35.520
Since many users now work on tablets

35
00:02:35.521 --> 00:02:38.091
you can assign shortcuts to the Command Bar

36
00:02:38.340 --> 00:02:41.640
or use it intuitively with touch controls

37
00:02:43.279 --> 00:02:46.160
Now, let’s start from the far left

38
00:02:46.161 --> 00:02:48.909
The Tools section is located on the left side

39
00:02:49.307 --> 00:02:54.047
and it contains all the tools used in Clip Studio

40
00:02:54.900 --> 00:02:59.600
Within the Tools section, the panels are

41
00:02:59.600 --> 00:03:00.760
Sub Tool

42
00:03:01.221 --> 00:03:02.401
Tool Property

43
00:03:02.541 --> 00:03:03.607
Brush Size

44
00:03:04.168 --> 00:03:05.988
and Color Circle

45
00:03:06.939 --> 00:03:13.480
On the right side, you’ll find panels for Navigator, Layer Properties, and Layers

46
00:03:15.160 --> 00:03:20.999
This entire layout, composed of these panels, is referred to as a Workspace

47
00:03:21.759 --> 00:03:23.384
To put it simply, you can think

48
00:03:23.385 --> 00:03:28.866
of the Workspace as a desk for drawing

49
00:03:29.500 --> 00:03:33.420
This workspace can be rearranged to suit your preferences

50
00:03:33.420 --> 00:03:36.713
and you can also save the layout you create

51
00:03:38.079 --> 00:03:43.100
Let’s start by adjusting the workspace for easier use

52
00:03:45.039 --> 00:03:50.919
The current workspace layout is the default setup of Clip Studio Pain

53
00:03:50.919 --> 00:03:56.659
so we’ll reconfigure it into a layout that’s more practical for use

54
00:03:57.180 --> 00:04:02.060
You can click and drag each panel with your mouse

55
00:04:04.120 --> 00:04:11.636
to reposition them or even detach them entirely from the interface

56
00:04:13.620 --> 00:04:24.200
Before customizing the workspace, you can also remove tools you don’t use

57
00:04:24.200 --> 00:04:30.680
Click the X button at the top-right corner of a panel to close it

58
00:04:31.920 --> 00:04:37.580
If you close a panel, don’t worry

59
00:04:37.580 --> 00:04:44.320
Go to the Window menu at the top and re-open it

60
00:04:44.760 --> 00:04:46.281
As mentioned earlier

61
00:04:46.281 --> 00:04:52.181
think of the workspace as your drawing desk

62
00:04:52.760 --> 00:04:57.779
It’s always a good idea to organize your desk before starting

63
00:04:58.519 --> 00:05:02.560
From the left side, place the Sub Tool at the top

64
00:05:03.760 --> 00:05:06.919
followed by Tool Property underneath it

65
00:05:06.920 --> 00:05:10.746
Drag them into position accordingly

66
00:05:11.166 --> 00:05:15.879
Finally, place Brush Size at the very bottom

67
00:05:18.040 --> 00:05:26.420
For unused tools, detach them from the interface and close them

68
00:05:32.300 --> 00:05:36.580
For the right side, place the Color Circle at the top

69
00:05:39.079 --> 00:05:42.259
Below that, add the Layer Property panel

70
00:05:42.260 --> 00:05:45.916
Panels or tools that aren’t used can be removed

71
00:05:47.720 --> 00:05:53.480
At the very bottom, place the Layer panel

72
00:05:53.840 --> 00:05:56.220
Since the layer panel often contains a lot of information

73
00:05:56.221 --> 00:06:00.849
it’s a good idea to make this panel larger

74
00:06:01.780 --> 00:06:08.019
Next to it, you’ll find a small Material Folder icon

75
00:06:08.239 --> 00:06:09.468
Clicking on it

76
00:06:09.469 --> 00:06:16.969
will reveal that materials are organized into folders by category

77
00:06:18.959 --> 00:06:24.599
It's a lot of information and can reduce the drawing space

78
00:06:24.600 --> 00:06:26.655
We’ll minimize it for now

79
00:06:28.139 --> 00:06:31.359
You can always expand it as needed

80
00:06:31.939 --> 00:06:38.800
The basic setup of the Clip Studio Paint workspace is complete

81
00:06:39.640 --> 00:06:42.643
Once you’ve created a personalized workspace

82
00:06:42.644 --> 00:06:45.094
Go to the top

83
00:06:45.095 --> 00:06:48.452
to Tool Bar

84
00:06:48.452 --> 00:06:58.619
Choosing Register Workspace to save your layout

85
00:07:00.699 --> 00:07:03.580
I’ll save my workspace as

86
00:07:05.939 --> 00:07:09.303
Webtoon Workspace 1

87
00:07:09.303 --> 00:07:13.403
Canvas

88
00:07:14.040 --> 00:07:18.799
Now, let’s explore Canvas settings in Clip Studio Paint

89
00:07:19.429 --> 00:07:21.849
To open a new canvas

90
00:07:22.279 --> 00:07:26.940
go to the Tool Bar at the top

91
00:07:27.160 --> 00:07:28.139
click File

92
00:07:28.139 --> 00:07:29.172
and select New

93
00:07:29.952 --> 00:07:31.433
In the New Project Window

94
00:07:32.760 --> 00:07:36.119
you’ll find options for the type of project

95
00:07:36.119 --> 00:07:38.896
Illustration

96
00:07:39.179 --> 00:07:44.259
This option is for creating a single standalone illustration

97
00:07:46.160 --> 00:07:48.221
Webtoon

98
00:07:48.221 --> 00:07:51.353
Specifically designed for creating webtoons

99
00:07:51.940 --> 00:07:54.240
Comic

100
00:07:54.241 --> 00:07:58.753
Suitable for creating multi-page comics

101
00:07:59.060 --> 00:08:02.960
The fourth option is Doujin Entry

102
00:08:04.080 --> 00:08:09.330
It is ideal for creating doujinshi or page comics with publication in mind

103
00:08:09.679 --> 00:08:13.679
Following that is Show All Comic Settings

104
00:08:14.019 --> 00:08:18.919
which allows you to further customize

105
00:08:18.920 --> 00:08:22.818
the configurations for comics or doujinshi as needed

106
00:08:24.079 --> 00:08:26.159
Next, Animation

107
00:08:26.459 --> 00:08:29.239
Clip Studio Paint isn’t just limited to illustrations or comics

108
00:08:29.239 --> 00:08:32.979
It’s also a highly versatile tool for creating animations

109
00:08:33.479 --> 00:08:38.919
That’s all for the basic categories under Open Canvas

110
00:08:39.939 --> 00:08:42.940
Let’s now try creating a new file

111
00:08:42.941 --> 00:08:45.890
I’ll start by selecting the Illustration category

112
00:08:47.140 --> 00:08:50.979
Here, you can name your canvas

113
00:08:53.419 --> 00:08:58.979
Let's call it Illustration Work 1

114
00:09:00.899 --> 00:09:02.580
As you scroll down

115
00:09:02.580 --> 00:09:05.320
you’ll notice a Presets section

116
00:09:08.120 --> 00:09:16.380
Clicking on it reveals a variety of preset paper sizes

117
00:09:17.088 --> 00:09:20.408
While there are many preset options available

118
00:09:20.408 --> 00:09:23.229
I won’t choose one just yet

119
00:09:24.647 --> 00:09:27.020
Below the presets

120
00:09:28.879 --> 00:09:31.960
in the Canvas section, you can adjust the size of your canvas

121
00:09:32.520 --> 00:09:36.936
The width, height

122
00:09:36.937 --> 00:09:40.254
and resolution can all be customized here

123
00:09:40.254 --> 00:09:46.279
You’ll also find an option at the bottom to change the default expression color

124
00:09:49.519 --> 00:09:52.940
If you select Custom

125
00:09:52.941 --> 00:09:57.261
you’ll see additional settings paper sizes

126
00:09:59.360 --> 00:10:03.203
like B4, B5, B6, and A4

127
00:10:03.204 --> 00:10:09.063
They are commonly used paper sizes

128
00:10:09.543 --> 00:10:11.620
For this demonstration, I’ll go with A4

129
00:10:12.015 --> 00:10:15.735
Currently, the resolution is set to 72 dpi

130
00:10:16.011 --> 00:10:21.031
If you click on the arrow next to the resolution

131
00:10:21.371 --> 00:10:26.740
you’ll see a range of resolution options to choose from

132
00:10:27.260 --> 00:10:33.744
For digital work like posting online, 72 dpi is an adequate resolution

133
00:10:33.744 --> 00:10:37.704
However, for detailed artwork, 72 dpi might be too low

134
00:10:38.419 --> 00:10:45.040
If you’re working on illustrations,
it’s recommended to choose a resolution of 300 dpi or higher

135
00:10:46.200 --> 00:10:48.704
At 300 dpi, your work

136
00:10:48.705 --> 00:10:52.350
will not only be suitable for web posting

137
00:10:52.350 --> 00:10:55.210
but also for printing or publication without quality issues

138
00:10:57.779 --> 00:11:03.040
When I initially selected A4 size and then adjusted the resolution afterward

139
00:11:03.040 --> 00:11:06.905
the width and height didn’t automatically adapt to the resolution

140
00:11:07.045 --> 00:11:12.180
To fix this, select a different paper size and then switch back to A4

141
00:11:12.180 --> 00:11:18.138
This will adjust the canvas dimensions to match the new resolution

142
00:11:19.600 --> 00:11:22.679
As we scroll down further

143
00:11:24.199 --> 00:11:26.759
we come across the Basic Expression Color setting

144
00:11:28.379 --> 00:11:33.020
While the default is set to color, clicking the arrow

145
00:11:33.021 --> 00:11:35.877
provides three options

146
00:11:35.878 --> 00:11:38.217
color, gray, and monochrome

147
00:11:38.420 --> 00:11:43.180
The color option allows for full use of a wide range of colors

148
00:11:44.120 --> 00:11:49.640
while gray enables black-and-white work with a rich grayscale

149
00:11:50.600 --> 00:11:57.180
Monochrome restricts you to pure black and white without any mid-tones

150
00:11:57.780 --> 00:12:01.020
For this demonstration, I’ll select color

151
00:12:02.360 --> 00:12:07.299
Continuing down, there’s an option labeled Paper Color

152
00:12:08.223 --> 00:12:11.743
If you uncheck this

153
00:12:13.580 --> 00:12:19.911
the canvas will appear completely blank without any background color

154
00:12:20.743 --> 00:12:23.920
With the option checked

155
00:12:23.920 --> 00:12:29.075
a white background is automatically applied

156
00:12:29.279 --> 00:12:33.720
Clicking on the color section

157
00:12:35.220 --> 00:12:41.039
allows you to customize the background color of the paper to suit your preference

158
00:12:47.199 --> 00:12:50.479
Moving further down, there’s the Template section

159
00:12:50.480 --> 00:12:52.886
If you check this,

160
00:12:53.719 --> 00:12:57.459
the materials panel will open

161
00:12:58.659 --> 00:13:02.579
showing a variety of templates provided by Clip Studio Paint

162
00:13:02.579 --> 00:13:05.779
These can be applied to create new files

163
00:13:06.259 --> 00:13:09.979
For now, I’ll skip using this option

164
00:13:12.639 --> 00:13:16.479
Below that, we have the Moving Illustration Creation section

165
00:13:16.480 --> 00:13:18.552
which allows you to make moving illustration

166
00:13:18.552 --> 00:13:23.199
It is handy for creating animated illustrations or even emojis

167
00:13:24.239 --> 00:13:28.139
At the very bottom, there’s the Timelapse Record feature

168
00:13:28.139 --> 00:13:30.979
This records every step of your work on the canvas

169
00:13:30.979 --> 00:13:34.159
and compiles it into a video

170
00:13:34.520 --> 00:13:37.300
For this demonstration, I won’t enable this option

171
00:13:37.301 --> 00:13:39.879
Now let’s proceed to create the canvas

172
00:13:44.499 --> 00:13:49.659
Once the canvas is ready, we'll draw a few lines with the brush tool

173
00:13:50.317 --> 00:13:57.937
Drawing Lines with a Brush

174
00:13:58.637 --> 00:14:02.520
I’ll start by using the default G-Pen brush

175
00:14:02.520 --> 00:14:04.480
provided by Clip Studio Paint to draw a line

176
00:14:04.899 --> 00:14:07.059
If you’re opening Clip Studio Paint for the first time

177
00:14:07.060 --> 00:14:11.228
you can also adjust the pen pressure settings to match your drawing style

178
00:14:11.939 --> 00:14:14.524
Go to the top menu

179
00:14:14.805 --> 00:14:15.925
select File

180
00:14:15.925 --> 00:14:17.966
and scroll down

181
00:14:18.228 --> 00:14:22.328
to the Adjust Pen Pressure Detection Level option

182
00:14:22.816 --> 00:14:24.600
Clicking this

183
00:14:26.719 --> 00:14:31.600
will open a dialog box where you can fine-tune your pen pressure settings

184
00:14:33.479 --> 00:14:36.860
You can proceed with the default pen pressure settings

185
00:14:39.019 --> 00:14:44.159
but you can also enable the Show Pen Pressure Graph option

186
00:14:45.144 --> 00:14:47.864
This will display a graph that dynamically adjusts as you draw

187
00:14:47.999 --> 00:14:51.900
When I draw a line, you can see the graph

188
00:14:51.901 --> 00:14:54.925
 reflecting the changes in pen pressure

189
00:14:56.280 --> 00:14:59.640
You can also reset the settings to their default state

190
00:15:01.420 --> 00:15:07.199
or manually adjust the graph

191
00:15:09.279 --> 00:15:12.220
As mentioned earlier, the graph can always

192
00:15:12.220 --> 00:15:15.166
be reset to its default settings

193
00:15:15.166 --> 00:15:17.859
so feel free to experiment with it

194
00:15:19.079 --> 00:15:22.040
I’ll adjust the curve slightly downward

195
00:15:22.041 --> 00:15:25.219
to make the pen pressure more responsive

196
00:15:25.940 --> 00:15:29.200
Since you can return and tweak these settings anytime

197
00:15:29.201 --> 00:15:33.341
I recommend trying different configurations

198
00:15:33.650 --> 00:15:37.610
Tools

199
00:15:39.020 --> 00:15:43.319
Now let’s move on to the tools panel

200
00:15:44.759 --> 00:15:49.100
Think of it as your pencil case

201
00:15:49.101 --> 00:15:52.181
within Clip Studio Paint

202
00:15:53.020 --> 00:15:57.080
Starting from the top

203
00:15:57.081 --> 00:16:00.353
I’ll explain the most commonly used tools

204
00:16:02.080 --> 00:16:05.319
The first tool is the Magnifier

205
00:16:05.820 --> 00:16:10.560
This tool allows you to zoom in and out of your canvas

206
00:16:11.499 --> 00:16:16.372
making it a frequently used function, 
I recommend you remember the hotkey for this

207
00:16:18.319 --> 00:16:21.959
No matter which tool you have selected, whether it’s the Pen

208
00:16:21.960 --> 00:16:23.755
Magic Wand

209
00:16:23.755 --> 00:16:26.056
or Selection tool

210
00:16:26.459 --> 00:16:29.740
you can activate the Magnifier

211
00:16:29.741 --> 00:16:33.641
by holding down Control and Spacebar

212
00:16:33.641 --> 00:16:38.099
or Alt and Spacebar

213
00:16:38.100 --> 00:16:41.559
This allows you to use the Magnifier temporarily

214
00:16:42.819 --> 00:16:45.059
You can click to zoom in or out

215
00:16:46.600 --> 00:16:54.239
or hold the shortcut keys and drag for more precise adjustments

216
00:16:56.440 --> 00:17:00.039
Next is the Move Tool

217
00:17:00.500 --> 00:17:05.619
Within this, we see the Hand Tool

218
00:17:05.906 --> 00:17:10.306
The Hand Tool lets you move the canvas freely

219
00:17:12.180 --> 00:17:19.240
The Rotation Tool allows you to rotate the canvas as needed

220
00:17:20.579 --> 00:17:22.620
Following this is the Operation Tool

221
00:17:24.059 --> 00:17:28.599
which is versatile and can manipulate objects on the canvas

222
00:17:28.599 --> 00:17:31.920
To demonstrate this

223
00:17:31.921 --> 00:17:34.561
I’ll quickly draw two examples

224
00:17:40.780 --> 00:17:44.601
I just drew something

225
00:17:44.601 --> 00:17:48.344
on a Raster Layer

226
00:17:50.680 --> 00:17:57.160
And let's create a Vector Layer

227
00:18:01.520 --> 00:18:04.843
So I have two drawings here

228
00:18:04.844 --> 00:18:08.399
I will talk about the raster

229
00:18:08.400 --> 00:18:12.146
and vector layers in more detail at another time

230
00:18:17.179 --> 00:18:19.700
Back to the operation tool

231
00:18:22.359 --> 00:18:28.479
when using the object tool to select a raster layer

232
00:18:31.879 --> 00:18:36.900
you can directly select and move the layer with the drawing

233
00:18:37.700 --> 00:18:43.220
Now let's go to the vector image

234
00:18:45.700 --> 00:18:52.111
Here, the details of the points and lines within the vector layer become visible

235
00:18:53.315 --> 00:18:58.819
The object tool comes handy when working with vector layers

236
00:18:59.179 --> 00:19:03.060
I'll talk about this again later

237
00:19:03.640 --> 00:19:06.019
Next is Layer Selection

238
00:19:07.719 --> 00:19:12.379
The layer selection tool allows you to drag and select an area

239
00:19:13.959 --> 00:19:19.399
automatically moving to the layer with the drawing

240
00:19:20.279 --> 00:19:23.360
In the layer section

241
00:19:23.360 --> 00:19:27.140
when you use the layer selection tool,
it moves to the layer corresponding to the selected area

242
00:19:29.799 --> 00:19:33.040
Even if the drawings are on separate layers

243
00:19:33.040 --> 00:19:35.519
this tool allows you

244
00:19:35.519 --> 00:19:38.840
to select all relevant layers simultaneously

245
00:19:40.260 --> 00:19:43.299
So we can select two layers together

246
00:19:47.680 --> 00:19:52.260
The layer move tool

247
00:19:53.160 --> 00:19:58.640
enables you to move the contents of a selected layer

248
00:19:59.120 --> 00:20:05.000
Let me select the raster layer and move it

249
00:20:05.420 --> 00:20:09.480
and the drawing within that layer will shift accordingly

250
00:20:10.040 --> 00:20:13.000
Now, select and move the vector layer

251
00:20:13.001 --> 00:20:16.546
then the contents of the vector layer will move as well

252
00:20:19.400 --> 00:20:22.140
Next is the selection tool

253
00:20:23.160 --> 00:20:29.280
which is an essential tool frequently used during work

254
00:20:30.160 --> 00:20:33.739
The first option within this tool is the rectangular selection tool

255
00:20:34.019 --> 00:20:38.280
which allows you

256
00:20:38.280 --> 00:20:42.680
to select objects or drawings within a rectangular area

257
00:20:44.459 --> 00:20:48.159
Below the selection tool, a set of options

258
00:20:48.459 --> 00:20:50.979
known as the selection launcher appears

259
00:20:51.299 --> 00:20:55.795
Let’s explore the options in the selection launcher

260
00:20:56.303 --> 00:20:59.719
from left to right

261
00:21:00.139 --> 00:21:01.939
Deselect

262
00:21:02.168 --> 00:21:05.488
It clears the current selection

263
00:21:08.299 --> 00:21:12.219
Crop Canvas to Selection

264
00:21:13.679 --> 00:21:18.120
It trims the canvas to match the selected area

265
00:21:21.520 --> 00:21:25.699
The next tool is Invert Selection

266
00:21:26.539 --> 00:21:34.479
which reverses the selected area so that the outside becomes active

267
00:21:37.099 --> 00:21:41.339
The Expand Selection option

268
00:21:41.919 --> 00:21:44.480
When you click on it

269
00:21:46.379 --> 00:21:50.999
it asks how many pixels you’d like to expand the selection by

270
00:21:53.060 --> 00:21:55.060
It's by pixels

271
00:21:55.060 --> 00:22:01.060
I'll increase it by 10 pixels so that we can see it

272
00:22:03.160 --> 00:22:05.420
It is 10 pixels bigger

273
00:22:06.560 --> 00:22:10.419
Similarly, the Shrink Selection option

274
00:22:11.259 --> 00:22:14.779
reduces the selection area

275
00:22:14.959 --> 00:22:19.159
Now let's reduce it by 20 pixels

276
00:22:22.079 --> 00:22:26.520
It's useful for refining your selection boundaries

277
00:22:27.960 --> 00:22:30.540
The Delete button

278
00:22:31.153 --> 00:22:35.753
removes the contents of the selection area

279
00:22:36.273 --> 00:22:38.820
Note that this operation is layer-specific

280
00:22:39.760 --> 00:22:42.964
so ensure the correct layer is selected before using this function

281
00:22:44.316 --> 00:22:45.915
Let's come back

282
00:22:48.643 --> 00:22:54.660
Next is Delete Outside Selection

283
00:22:55.240 --> 00:22:58.039
To explain this

284
00:22:58.305 --> 00:23:02.265
Let me duplicate and merge layers

285
00:23:03.759 --> 00:23:06.679
Delete Outside Selection

286
00:23:07.021 --> 00:23:11.301
It removes everything outside the selected area

287
00:23:15.660 --> 00:23:20.079
Next is Cut and Paste

288
00:23:22.639 --> 00:23:25.080
Let's try it

289
00:23:26.333 --> 00:23:31.353
We have a new layer here

290
00:23:32.176 --> 00:23:35.936
It cuts the content from the selection area

291
00:23:35.937 --> 00:23:39.005
and pastes it onto a new layer

292
00:23:42.100 --> 00:23:47.739
Next is Copy and Paste

293
00:23:48.319 --> 00:23:49.919
Let's do it

294
00:23:50.579 --> 00:23:53.959
We have a new layer

295
00:23:54.959 --> 00:23:59.881
It duplicates the content of the selection area

296
00:23:59.881 --> 00:24:04.716
and places it onto a new layer

297
00:24:07.959 --> 00:24:09.880
Let's come back

298
00:24:13.180 --> 00:24:15.960
Next, Resize, Scale, and Rotate

299
00:24:16.425 --> 00:24:18.065
Click on it

300
00:24:18.177 --> 00:24:31.580
It allows you to resize, scale, or rotate the selected content

301
00:24:38.759 --> 00:24:41.179
Next is Fill

302
00:24:43.300 --> 00:24:49.439
It fills the selection area with the currently selected color

303
00:24:51.860 --> 00:24:53.960
The New Tone option

304
00:24:55.278 --> 00:24:59.898
allows you to add screen tones within the selected area

305
00:25:01.980 --> 00:25:05.980
 You can adjust tone settings like this

306
00:25:09.319 --> 00:25:16.559
You can add screen tones like this as well

307
00:25:18.400 --> 00:25:21.959
Finally, Selection Launcher Settings

308
00:25:23.740 --> 00:25:26.540
It let you customize the options

309
00:25:26.540 --> 00:25:29.921
that appear in the selection launcher

310
00:25:34.160 --> 00:25:37.499
You can select each like this

311
00:25:37.667 --> 00:25:40.067
to remove

312
00:25:40.819 --> 00:25:47.699
or add tools and functions to tailor the launcher

313
00:25:51.499 --> 00:25:55.339
Let's stop here for the Selection Launcher Settings

314
00:25:56.619 --> 00:26:00.479
Next, Auto Selection Tool

315
00:26:02.439 --> 00:26:07.379
This tool automatically selects a region

316
00:26:08.419 --> 00:26:14.019
It's a little open at the bottom here

317
00:26:18.120 --> 00:26:23.960
Let's close it up and select it again

318
00:26:24.380 --> 00:26:28.879
The Auto Selection Tool

319
00:26:29.638 --> 00:26:32.418
It's a frequently used tool

320
00:26:32.839 --> 00:26:35.560
Next is Eyedropper Tool

321
00:26:36.546 --> 00:26:44.779
For this, let me fill this with a color

322
00:26:46.119 --> 00:26:52.780
Click the color with the eyedropper tool

323
00:26:52.781 --> 00:26:55.721
to select it and reuse it elsewhere

324
00:26:58.400 --> 00:27:03.320
Next, we have a variety of brushes

325
00:27:04.120 --> 00:27:08.859
We have pens, pencils

326
00:27:09.919 --> 00:27:14.680
brushes, and airbrushes

327
00:27:17.679 --> 00:27:22.599
I recommend you try these and find which is your favorite

328
00:27:26.959 --> 00:27:28.920
Next is Decoration Tool

329
00:27:29.637 --> 00:27:33.677
It's a particularly versatile feature in Clip Studio Paint

330
00:27:33.820 --> 00:27:38.340
It allows you to decorate your illustrations with pre-made textures

331
00:27:39.140 --> 00:27:41.076
Like this

332
00:27:41.992 --> 00:27:47.960
The brush with decorations are added right away

333
00:27:49.839 --> 00:27:51.860
I can make the flowers too

334
00:27:53.063 --> 00:27:57.643
It can add a nice touch to the drawing with decorations

335
00:27:57.643 --> 00:28:00.400
You can purchase or create your own assets

336
00:28:02.204 --> 00:28:05.384
for further personalization

337
00:28:07.640 --> 00:28:09.392
Next, Eraser Tool

338
00:28:10.880 --> 00:28:17.259
It comes with a hard eraser, a soft eraser, and a vector eraser

339
00:28:17.699 --> 00:28:22.760
I'll talk more about the vector eraser later

340
00:28:23.860 --> 00:28:26.360
Next is Blend Tool

341
00:28:28.660 --> 00:28:36.539
This tool allows you to mix different colors seamlessly

342
00:28:37.259 --> 00:28:38.760
For example

343
00:28:41.520 --> 00:28:46.780
let me add some blue next to the red

344
00:28:47.280 --> 00:28:51.140
And let's blend the two

345
00:28:51.960 --> 00:28:56.279
As you can see, the two colors are nicely blending in

346
00:28:57.033 --> 00:28:58.453
You could blend the two

347
00:28:58.454 --> 00:29:00.407
or use Blur

348
00:29:01.319 --> 00:29:05.800
or use Fingertip to bring the color in

349
00:29:14.359 --> 00:29:17.659
Next is Liquify Tool

350
00:29:18.468 --> 00:29:24.088
It enables you to manipulate the pixels of a completed drawing

351
00:29:25.760 --> 00:29:28.919
This tool is incredibly versatile

352
00:29:28.919 --> 00:29:33.282
allowing you to adjust of your artwork as you need to

353
00:29:33.795 --> 00:29:40.619
Like this, you can move the pixels around to adjust the drawing

354
00:29:44.079 --> 00:29:46.340
Next is Fill Tool

355
00:29:47.015 --> 00:29:51.775
which allows you to fill selected areas with a solid color

356
00:29:53.020 --> 00:29:54.883
Let's undo the coloring

357
00:29:55.258 --> 00:29:57.678
Choose a color you like

358
00:29:59.839 --> 00:30:00.800
pour it in

359
00:30:00.801 --> 00:30:03.799
You can fill that color in the drawing

360
00:30:04.103 --> 00:30:07.723
It's also called Bucket Tool

361
00:30:09.520 --> 00:30:12.179
Next is Gradient Tool

362
00:30:13.368 --> 00:30:16.788
It lets you create gradients of colors

363
00:30:17.279 --> 00:30:20.759
It comes in handy for adding background textures

364
00:30:27.439 --> 00:30:30.280
