Hello creative filmmakers, thanks for watching Orange83.
It is time for another basics video editing tutorial.
Today we're going to talk about masking inside Premiere Pro.
So, what is masking?
Masking enables you to target effects to a specific area or section of your video.
And you could also cut out or place something on top of your video.
This way, you could for example integrate two or more clips into one.
If you didn't understand anything from what I just said, don't worry.
In this video I'll show you 4 creative examples of what you can achieve with masking.
I'm sure that this will help you to learn the basics.

Removing unwanted objects. That's the first use case we're going to look at.
I will briefly walk you through the steps inside Premiere.
I have already done a full video on this topic,
so, if you want a more step-by-step in-depth tutorial then check that out,
links in the video description.
For now we're going to work with the clip from this beautiful hawk.
We've got some unwanted tie rips on the bottom of this clip here
and we're going to remove this with masking.
The first thing to do is duplicating the video track.
Select the layer with the left mouse button while holding the Alt-key,
then drag it up one track above.
Select the duplicated layer and then go to the Effects Control Panel
and in the opacity section select the Pen tool.
Then draw a mask around a part of the clip
that we could use to cover the unwanted object.
Once we're done then adjust the position values in the way that it will cover the object
and increase the mask feather to make it blend-in more.
And now, as you can see, we've covered the unwanted object completely.
On to the next one, and that is isolating or targeting effects.
The next use case is related to applying effects to a certain part or area of a clip.
Let's say we want to color correct or brighten the face of the model in this clip.
We want to draw the attention to her, so that's why we only want to apply
this correction to her face instead of the whole scene.
Okay, now first let's do some color correction inside the Lumetri color panel.
I'm going to increase the exposure and a bit of highlights.
As you can see, we've now applied this to the entire clip.
We can use masking to only apply this to her face.
Also, in this case we will use the Pen tool to draw the mask,
but this time inside the Lumetri color effect,
instead of the opacity section that we did in the previous one.
This does not have to be very precise.
We can use the feather to make it blend in perfectly.
The only problem is that she's also moving across the screen,
so that means we have to animate the mask also.
Luckily, premiere is also very good in tracking faces,
So, that's what we're going to do by clicking this icon.
Premiere will now follow her face frame by frame
and it will change the mask position if necessary.
This tracking may take a while, so I'll speed it up so you don't have to wait.
[Music]
And once Premiere is done with tracking, you can see that it followed her face perfectly.
Now, you can see the difference when I enable or disable the effect
inside the Effects Control Panel.
And here you can see a comparison side-by-side.
[Music]
Combining clips, that's the third option of masking that we're going to look at.
You could use this technique in a lot of creative ways.
An example would be to clone a person.
Peter McKinnon already made a great tutorial on this topic.
I would highly recommend you to watch that one if you want to know how to do that.
In this tutorial we're going to replace the sky,
just like in the example that you just watched.
And these are the two clips that we're going to combine.
First, we're going to put the second clip on top of the first one.
Then inside the Effects Control Panel we're going to select the Pen tool in the opacity section
then we're going to draw a mask on the horizon.
We're going to zoom in, because in this case it needs to be done very precise.
Simply take the time to draw the mask and to cut out the sky of this clip.
Again, I'll speed this one up so you don't have to wait.
[Music]
As you can see, we've now created a mask that cuts out the sky.
But we want to see the other part of the mask, so we need to invert it.
If I deselect the mask you can see a white glow on top of the horizon.
This is mainly because feathering is enabled by default.
So, I'll put it back to 0 and then you can see the difference.
And in the final step we're going to reposition the bottom clip
to make it match more with the other one.
Select the bottom clip on the timeline and then inside the Effects Control Panel
change the position values.
In this case we want the horizon of both clips to match.
I think this is it, so let's have a look at the final result
before we move on to the next one.
Another creative way to use masking is by transitioning from one clip to the other.
In the first clip the model is walking down the stairs
and then blocking the screen by walking in front of the camera.
And we're going to use this to transition to the next clip.
I've also added some position adjustments to the first clip.
This way it looks like she's walking out of the frame,
which is not happening in the original clip.
I'll put it back for now and this is the second clip
that we're going to use to transition to.
Now we need to find the first frame where the right side is also visible.
I think this is the first frame that we're going to use.
Inside the Effects Control Panel select the Pen tool in the opacity section
and then draw the mask that we want to use for the transition.
And we also need to zoom out to be able to finish the mask.
That is mask number 1, and we also need to invert it.
And increase the mask feather to make it blend in more.
This is what we need to do frame-by-frame, because the shape is constantly changing.
Tracking inside Premiere won't work in this scenario.
So, let's enable keyframes for the mask path
and then go to the next frame by clicking this icon.
And, by the way, you could also click this icon, which does the same.
Select the mask layer and then change the position of the points,
so the shape will cover the entire part of the transition.
And this is exactly what we need to do for each frame until she's out of the picture.
Again, I'll speed it up so you don't have to wait.
[Music]
It took me around four minutes to change the shape of the mask in each frame,
so, this can be pretty time-consuming.
But if you don't overuse it, it will definitely be a great addition to your movie.
Now the only thing we've got left is placing the second track
below the first one to create the transition.
We need to find the point where the transition starts
and then put the second track underneath it.
Now the transition is finished, let's have a look at the results.
And that concludes my tutorial on 4 creative ways to use masking inside Premiere Pro.
I hope you enjoyed this tutorial and if you did, then please give it a thumbs up,
that really helps me a lot.
Thanks again for watching and I hope to see you back soon for more on Orange83.
