Use the Erase tool

- [Instructor] The Erase tool is one of those magical tools…that I'm so often thankful for.…And one of the things that has been killing me…till we get to this movie has been this blue helmet sitting…on (chuckles) the ground right here.…I'm going, I got to get rid of that, got to get rid of that,…and then I'm saying, no, we got to wait…till we get to the Erase movie.…Do not do it ahead of time.…So here we are, and we're going to get rid…of that blue helmet.…Now, we get to the Erase tool right up here…under the Tools popup.…There it is.…
