Advance the footage to the frame you want to paint. When you first drag in the layer, you paint on pixels from the location where you set your clone source point. However, as you release and drag in new locations of the frame, you paint on more of the source point frame rather than painting the same source pixels. If you continue to paint without releasing the mouse, you will eventually reproduce the entire source frame. In the example below, the clouds from the source frame are painted into other locations of the frame using aligned clone strokes.
You can achieve similar results with graphic images by using the clone stamp tool in Photoshop. After Effects and Photoshop provide additional cloning options, such as blending modes. For more information about the clone stamp tool, see After Effects online Help.
