Cleaning SFX Over Gradient - Video

This is one of hard things to do for new cleaner, which is cleaning a SFX over gradient background. In this case it's a simple gradient gray-to-white gradient. It's harder when the gradient is patterned or have random shapes and stuff, which requires more of your creativity to redraw/cloning those part, to look good. Over hard SFX you can consult with your typesetter, to ask how they're going to typeset those SFX. If they're using a big enough font + white stroking. Cleaning the SFX until they look flawless, is unnecessary.


-Update : Youtube removed my audio. Well changed to youtube stock music then.

I've made this tutorial in Video, cause I have not yet find how to make this in in screenshot. There are other techniques you can use to clean over gradients. This one will work the best if you have a lot of untouched gradient portion. Meaning 1) there wasn't any SFX over that part 2) That part must at least 1/4 the size of the SFX overlayed are (smaller part could also do, but it going to take a lot of time.)

If I find a way how to, I'll re-make this as Picture by Picture Tutorial also.
