This effect of making a transparent title or a logo allowing it to look

through it an image or a video is get thanks to the options of

tracking mask this option that is in the layers panel of

After Effects allows a layer to be control the visibility of another. yes what

we apply to a text layer we get a resource used in cinema

to move from the initial credits to start of the movie

In this video I will realize this effect

using After Effects, we'll see how to create a text like

encourage him to apply the mask Track and export it with maximum

quality to use it later in our edit are you ready?

To make this effect we are going to use After effects I will explain it in such

way that anyone who has never used that program can perform it

However, if you are new to this program I advise you to watch the video that is After

Effects where I explain the interface and the Panel transformation options

timeline we begin by opening the program and the first thing that we

we found is the home screen where we can choose if we want to open

an existing project or make one new from the beginning

we choose new composition and it opens the composition settings screen

here we will give a name to the composition for example "title

transparent "and in settings predetermined we select the

characteristics of the composition that let's create in my case I want it to be

create a 1080p composition at 25 frames per second to finish we choose the

background color of the composition that by default just like all

programs comes in black in this tutorial to make it different from the rest

let's choose a white background color we click inside the box and we

open the background color window, we choose the color and press to accept

once the adjustments of composition we press accept

we found with the program interface ready to create our effect we have

the white background and then we're going to import the necessary material in this

case would be the video that is going to see through the letters to import new

material we go to the project panel located to the left and click on any

side of the panel with the right button of the mouse we get a series of options

among which is import - files another option to do the same is to go to

menu file - import-file. we select the video and click on

open, the video already appears in the project panel next to the composition

that we created at the beginning and that we call Transparent title on the line panel

time as you can see you already have the transparent title composition for

take material to the timeline it's as easy as selecting it and

drag it to the left of the layer we have an eye icon where

we can activate or deactivate the view of the layer

let's create a text in this composition to make it look better I'm going to

momentarily deactivate the view of the video layer to create a text

we press the icon with a "T" in the menu of tools located by default in

the upper area of ​​the interface of the program to start writing us

we go directly to the monitor and press in the area where we want to start the

text on the right we have all the text tool controls that

we have selected we can choose the font the fill color of the text and

other options such as size and interlined in this example by having the

White background I'm going to select the black color for

my letters and I'm going to write the title for example "New York" if we wanted

changing color is as easy as select the letters and modify your

color for example I will change the color of the letter "N" I select it and in the

color controls I will choose a orange and once chosen we press

accept to exit text mode click on the tool icon

selection once we have this selected tool we can move

the text and place it on the site that we agree

in the timeline we have been created the text layer every time we add

a new layer after effects will place it the first to see the properties of

any layer we deploy this triangle located on the left and we

appear in this case the properties of text and transform we unfold the

options to transform and we get the anchor point, position, scale

rotation and opacity below we are going to encourage this text to make a

zoom for it I will modify the property scale, by default the values ​​are at

100% if we increase them, the text size increases but notice that

increases but not from the center this is because the anchor point is not

in the center of the text but below to the left is this dot in the form of

telescopic sight I'm going to make the text smaller using the property again

scale and then I will place the anchor point in the center of the text

we select the property point of anchor and move it by placing it in the

center of the text with the first value what we move in the horizontal direction or axis

of the x and with the second value so

vertical or in the axis of the "and" I already have it placed right in the center of the letter

and the text "New York" when we modify the anchor point of a text or of

any layer moves from position to what will be necessary to put it back

on your site well using the tool selection by taking it with the mouse to its

position or also from the controls to transform from the text layer into

this case using the position property once we have it already in its place if

we increase its scale the text will from the center we go next to

encourage him in the part on the right of timeline panel we have the time

measured on this scale two seconds four seconds six seconds we can

zoom in on this area of ​​the line time using this slider and as you see

now the time goes from second to second in this composition I will leave some

five seconds the fixed text and from hence, zoom in

disappear from the screen so I I'm going to take the reproduction head

until five seconds and here I am going to create a keyframe on the property

scale press the animation icon of the scale represented by this

stopwatch and we are created the first keyframe or keyframe with this you

I'm saying that from the second zero until the second five the text

stay with the scale value 100 what next is deciding how long it is going to

take the text to enlarge and exit of the plane, for example I'm going to give you four

seconds we take the cursor to the second 9 and we modify the value of the

scale increasing it until the text is so

large that only the color black the whole screen to play it we

we take the playback head to beginning and press or the key

keyboard or button space play from the preview panel

located to the right of the interface will be five seconds static already

from there the zoom will start

the effect lasts long for my taste so that it lasts a little less I'm going to

reduce it to 3 seconds we take the head to the second 8 in this case and

we move the last Keyframe and we do it match in the second 8 in this way

the movement will be faster

now if you have the speed that was looking however if you notice the

speed is not constant starts very fast and then it goes a little slower this

we will solve it by modifying the keyframe assistant yes

click on the scale property you see select all keyframes if we click

with the right mouse button between the properties that we leave these the one of

keyframe assistants and here we have several options that go to

modify the speed of movement of among all for this example I'm going to

choose exponential scale if what we reproduce now how can you see the

result is much better

let's apply the effect below matte tracking so that the video is

see inside the text we hide the layer settings by clicking on the

triangle and we activate the view of the video layer below we are going to

choose what part of the layers we want see this is done thanks to this

function called matte tracking and that is in the options of

the layers if for any reason you do not appear do not be scared

you probably do not have the view activated of transparency controls if you're going to

the icons that are just below to the left of the program there is an icon

with a circle and a square interspersed that must be active to make them look

these options if I deactivate them options disappear from the layer so

I'm going to activate it again in this example we want the video to be the one

adjust your visibility based on text we're going to go to the mate option

of tracking where you put none if you we deploy we will obtain several options

in this example we are going to use the option of mate alpha, as you can see the text is

It becomes transparent by letting your through the video of the lower layer if

we reproduce it we get this result

applying this effect we have lost the initial color of the text the orange of the

letter "N" and the black color of the letters so the next thing we're going to

make will recover those colors and choose at what time we want the

letters become transparent we we take the playback head to

beginning and we're going to duplicate the layer of text for it we select it we go

to the edit menu and press duplicate it creates the duplicate text layer in

the timeline and to see it we activate their visibility we already have

new the text without transparency we unfold the options of the layer of

duplicate text by clicking on the triangle and we go to the properties of

transform in this case we're going to focus on the opacity property I'm going to

go reproducing the composition with playback head until you reach

point where I want the letters begin to become transparent and that

let's see the layer that has just below for example at this point I want to

from here the black of the letters will make transparent click on the

property animation chronometer opacity and we create a keyframe with the

100 opacity value we take the head

at the moment where we want the layer be completely transparent for example

here and we lower its opacity from 100 to 0 if we reproduce them we will see the result

final

now it's time to export it from after effects to use it in our edition we will be able to

export it in two ways one is with the white background that we have chosen but

We can also export it with the background transparent and can then in the edition

choose what background to put if another color or for example another video if in some

moment during the creation of the video we want to remove the background to see how

would be without it is as easy as pressing in this icon located below the panel

composition

We are going to export it as we have said with the transparent background for this we go to

menu file export and select add to the processing queue we were

opens the export options and in the Output module we can choose without

losses that the video would export us with the fund that we have chosen in the

composition in this case would export us the video with the blank background

or we can choose without loss with alpha and in this case it would be exported with the fund

transparent I will choose without loss with alpha so you can see later in premier

the possibilities that this option gives us in exit by clicking on the title we can

change among other things the name and especially choose where we want it to be

create the video in this case I will choose that is created in the document folder and

to finish click on save to When the export starts, click on

the process button and the process will begin Once created, we import it into

our editing program in this case I imported it in premiere and it has

taken to the timeline we only see how can you see the letter "N" because the

premiere default background is black and the other letters are colored

black to place a background color in the project panel we go to new element

and we select matte color we press accept and choose the color for example

so that it looks the same as in after effects let's choose the target and press

accept we give a name white background and press again accept, if

we take to a lower video track As you can see we have our background

white and the video exactly the same as we had it in after effects

The main advantage we have if we have exported our video with the

transparent background is that we can replace this colored background with another

video if we remove the white background and we drag to the timeline a

video the effect will look like this

Well I hope as always this video on how to create a mask

Tracking a text in after effects has been helpful if it's been like that

forget to leave a like and as always I say I would love to be able to read your greeting

or your comment on the video subscribe to the channel if you like your

VLOG EDITING TUTORIAL | Adobe Premiere | The Travel Human - Duration: 23:59.

Oh what is up guys how are you guys doing all right today's a little bit

different word it's not gonna be so much of a vlog but more of just like a

tutorial on how I do my blogs so that's cool right okay so well so it's my first

day of Ramadan so freaking fasting right now it's doing good it's still the

morning so I haven't really gone through any of the craziness yeah I'm still nice

and full from this morning we're and also nice and caffeinated all right

so let's get corrected all right so we're gonna be using Adobe now the

concepts in this video are not going to be editing software specific so don't

worry if you don't have it first we're gonna start with organization so how do

I organize my footage so that I can seamlessly import it into Adobe and edit

it in my timeline so this is kind of how I organized it I organized it by camera

my primary vlog camera for all the dialogue is going to be on top and my

cinematic on bottom and then my auxilary drone for aerials and then these ones

are just kind of like I don't use these ones a whole lot but sometimes I have

footage like that so I create files for em and they usually are just like one

percent of my vlog told footage okay cool so being well

organized is really important and this is kind of how I'm able to do it and

you'll you'll see how important it is once we open up a timeline all right so

let's get started I'm gonna head open project I figure out where my I've had

actually a lot of problems with Adobe's update 2018 there's been a lot of bugs I

haven't done the update that they just released because I'm still a little bit

skeptical so I'm waiting make sure everything was fixed right and then I'll

probably update in between projects all right cool so you can kind of look at my

workspace this is the kind of way I like it I don't know everybody has their own

but I use cs5 point 5 workspace and then of course I've kind of reconfigured it a

little bit and then saved it as a preset or saved my preferences ok cool

so Sahara Desert right so we're gonna start with a blank timeline there's two

different ways to start a sequence I like to start sequences from clip

because if I'm using a 1080 by or 1920 by 1080 clip I don't actually have to

type that in I know that's my settings on my g7x

and I just created a new sequence with those settings I'm just gonna type in

really quickly the Sahara tutorial just so we know which which timeline is is

the one that so what I'm doing here is I'm gonna

actually just highlight all of my clips now the g7x I primary will be used as

blogging and the wonderful thing about blogging is that it's all chronological

um so you could literally just throw all the clips down on your timeline just the

start and I'll further show you how I cut through those in a second but first

we're gonna work on the introduction and I'm going back to a past block or

actually this one's a future vlog but let's just pretend is the past log to

pick up the intro so the intro I do on every single blog so literally I just

copy and paste on little projects and toss it in mm-hmm I accidentally okay

there we go I'll just highlight them get rid of it

now all right I'll explain keyboard shortcuts here in a second I just want

to get through this how I build an intro okay so now that I got my little intro

there I'll just kind of expand it so I can you can see the inner workings those

are just opacity so yeah I just pray simply put my pesky points and make them

flicker and whatnot and that's my intro

yeah saying savings important make sure you do your autosave I do like every

eight minutes I know people that get crazy okay here's the shortcuts we got I

1 & 2 I've assigned as zoom in zoom out the qwr my brutal trim you will learn

more about that a is gonna be 4 select all then I use my snap stuff over there

Oh selection tool and my pen tool I use quite a bit slick tool and straight

stretch not so much I don't use that but it is it is good to know what they do

and of course your cut tool is that C which is insanely useful oh and if you

want to change any of those you just kind of click on that and

and put in what you want to assign it to literally like it's pretty easy no I'm

just compiling my intro and usually for my intro I like to just build like a

mini story that kind of gives you an idea of what's going on but doesn't

reveal too much um so that at least set the concept in my head so right now I'm

kind of scrubbing through footage to kind of build this mini story in the

beginning and hopefully to entice you to watch the whole thing so I'm here I'm

getting out of bed and then I'll be I really I kind of like that shot as like

a beginning of the day kind of thing and then I think what I can find

oh yeah at the door walking out the door and seeing this a hair in the back yeah

that's cool I'll put that down there see how that works out

this is like where most of my time goes it's just selecting shots which is kind

of the reason why I like to just as far as the blog the dialogue it goes I just

dump it and cut it as I go save so much time okay I like this one oh yeah and I

just write what I did there was as I decreased from full resolution down the

quarter of the resolution that way just things are more smooth and playback

that's a really nice tip you'll notice that both my source files and my my

program file have our set to a quarter in the final production when I'm done I

like to lose that the fool just to make sure everything looks good and it's

going good so by to check flow I always do quarter resolution okay so I've

established my little mini story I'm just kind of lining everything up

to look good then of course there's music I either do this before or after

the ministery if I do it after I just basically have to adjust to the beat so

right now I just lowered the gain a lot of times these these the audio clips

come pretty loud so I like to lower them negative four and right now I just put

constant gain constant gain is just basically a fade in/fade out to the

music and it's just a super quick drop down highlight get it get it going kind

of thing and it works really well surprisingly well it saves you my time

of time okay so I'm kind of lying to the beat right now and also lining to how

long I want shots to linger for my last shot I always linger for longer because

I might drop down text and I usually like a static shot that kind of

something's moving within the shot or just something's happening with the shot

but but the camera is not moving I don't know I just aesthetically I just like to

end on static shots

and then of course I have I have my drop down effects on my left those are all

presets that I've created and then also that I have downloaded and purchased so

I'm gonna get some background music going on right now so I'm just going to

pick something I don't even care what it is

quick preview yep good okay download that though right now my background

music you really don't have to get too technical you don't have to edit to the

beat or anything like that you literally just have to put it in the background as

a motivator to the story keep it moving keep it flowing

so I'll just I'll go ahead do to gain negative for like I usually do just for

good practice I'll head it down to about negative 16

or negative 19 depending on what the type of song how loud the song is or

yeah and then of course constant faith boom link them together so yep and then

I'll just lock down my audio this this part of the tutorial is basically how I

edit the body of my vlogs so oh and I like to I like to keep everything pretty

organized and layered and colored so my intro is yellow

all my cinematics is yellow and my the body is usually the vlog the g7x is kind

of people ooh and that's just kind of how I do it my Justin layers are pink

audios green it's kind of kind of the way I roll okay so now I'm getting into

the cutting now the cutting is where you can lose the most time or save the most

time so I save the most time by shortcuts Q and W Q is going to

basically cut to the left and then W is gonna cut to the right so and it's going

to compress after you cut so literally like right now let's see

right now I'm cutting to the left cutting to the left cutting to the left

cutting to the left and it's pulling down the whole time line so it's really

saves me time it's one step does one button does like two different things

and so that's really where you want to say the buttons you wanted to use it's a

save time okay so I'm gonna cut right I mean as soon as I right now I'm just

focusing on where the story is and and how it's going and where I want to cut

right but eventually I'll find a good point to cut right usually it's towards

the end of a spiel okay this this time it it went quite a bit and I just cut

right just a nail it yeah and sometimes I just have to slice with the razor

which razor is see that's the shortcut for the razor I just hit that and then I

do some cuts on my own if need be and then I have to manually move it over

with with a which is like a select all tool one of the most important things

when you're editing your your body of your blog is basically matching the

audio the audio is kind of the most important like not so much the video the

video can be forgiving I believe like if the video looks a little giri for one

clip to the next that can be forgiven as long as the audio is is sound what I

mean by sound is that when you speak one from one clip to the next the speech

sounds perfect like it sounds like natural like even if I cut from one

thing to another I'll often remember not to just cut from one word and then have

the next word come right after maybe I'll do a natural pause so that the next

word is spaced it all depends on what you're talking about right and how it

would naturally come out if you're really talking to somebody

think about how natural the audio would sound in real life and make sure you

apply that to your edits and like I said video is not as

important it's important I mean if you can seamlessly get the video and the

words beautiful awesome that is pro stuff right there but what I've seen

through all the edits and watching others is that the video doesn't as

matter the video doesn't matter as much as the audio alright cool so I'm just

gonna now we're going to enter into the cinematic portion of my vlogs the

montages now as you'll notice the TLO because I

like to be separated also it really helps like when I color grade I know

that the cinematics are the ones that I'm color grading so I know exactly

where to go to at the end I'm not like lost and wasting time looking for the

bit that I did so that's really important that is like the biggest thing

just how can you save time because vlogs 10-minute vlogs take a long time if you

don't know how to save time like insane day luckily if you use shortcuts I mean

it could be anywhere from four to eight hours edits hanging somehow and fall the

blog is and this is for like ten or twelve minute long now we are in our

resolution or our kind of climax after our climax of the story which is the

supposedly the cinematics we're gonna things are gonna resolve in this in the

last bit right the typical story storytelling line so I'm just gonna edit

it exactly the same I'm not putting any music in this one because I know

sometimes I like to start off with a good motivating be towards the end of my

edits sometimes I take away the music during the resolution

but that's just kind of like an artistic decision you can do whatever you want

okay so what I just did was I from my old blog basically every blog every blog

series I create an ending and a band and a logo and all that stuff so my ending

is already made from the first blog idea in that series I already make a

different ending so I just went to a past blog and grabbed this this ending

and I just basically copy and paste and attach it to the end

like I said saving time saving time I've create one template and what I'll do is

I'll just change the clips that are in the template but all this purple stuff

I'll leave the same which the purple stuff is graphics glitches or flashes or

colorful flashes or overlays stuff like that filters I'm trying to make it seem

what I'm trying to do artistically as make it seem like a like a movie film

and at the end it kind of like gets cut you know like it's not original it's not

original but I'll you know that liked it was an idea and I just went with it okay

cool so now this is kind of what a blog should look like in the end a very basic

blog I know people out there that that are doing crazy stuff and do all these

layers and tricks and but I like the simplicity of film and creation and I

think you don't need to get too crazy and also to be able to do - what - a

week I really like to keep it like this this is a perfect I'm in a perfect place

right now with editing and creation and releasing so so yeah that's basically

that's basically what it all looks like I got my cinematic layers got my body

I've got my adjustment layers and I have my effects layers oh right

one last thing I got to do my color grading so for my g7 X footage I usually

do I already have a preset color that I've already created that that is

specific to when I'm talking to the camera and specific to g7x settings so

essentially I just just copy and paste it from an old vlog and I've already

created it and then I just put it over top and put it only in the sections that

I'm talking to the camera and what you're seeing me do is I'm using a lot

of the zoom tool which is which I've assigned to one and - one thing I like

to do is I like to keep my right hand on the mouse and my left hand on the

keyboard and I and I don't like to bring I don't like to cross the two so my left

hand in order to do all my shortcuts it has to be able to do with one hand so

that's why you saw a lot of my shortcuts I created we're on the left side of the

of the keyboard also getting the color done I like to put a kind of this cool

theatrical theatrical effect essentially like the curtains are rising and

dropping so I do kind of this crop this moving crop and I've already have made

the adjustment layers and I've already made the preset for it so this is my

crop preset and I'll show you how to make this crop

one moment

all right and so here I go I got a hedge feather I like it seven okay so I got my

key frames for my cinematic crop start so I'll do one key frame he'll start at

zero the other one will start at ten you can see it drops down and then I'll show

you actually how to make that preset so let's say you got this you just

highlight say safe reset and boom you can name it

cinematic crop start that's well that's what I named it so you know that that'll

always produce that effect you'll have consistency and all the view videos and

yeah I do that I do that preset for for all those three and it takes it takes no

time at all and saves you loads of time so definitely recommend that so now we

go into coloring but before I go into coloring I always save because sometimes

it crashes and that's the thing with Adobe just buggy as hell so I just have

to work around it and then now I'll go over the coloring everything worked out

really fine I got my vector scopes on the left that'll help me how to figure

out how to edit and color so for my first clip it's super clean

there's no colors or editing done to it yet I go into my favorites I've already

created a preset for the cinematic fits that I do so I'm gonna grab it just drag

and drop

alright drag and drop the cool blows out my highlights right so that's not good

so I'll go into here do some adjustments try to bring back those highlights as

much as possible break up the shadows because I mean obviously the contrast is

great so I need to increase not the blacks I need you to see what's in the

blacks and then I need to kind of kill those brights right now it looks it

looks overexposed but I guess you can make out a little bit and this is just

kind of as good as it's kind of gay so I'll try to mess with it but I'm not

gonna spend too much time on it because this is a tutorial alright next clip

okay oh god just blah okay let's try to fix that there we go

there we go I also like to use this little saturation we like our color

wheel and these wheels work as well but I just don't have a whole lot experience

using these ones I'm I usually work with curves and then that color wheel that

you saw previously and then lots lots lots and then just basic color

correction okay so I'm applying this lot or I'm applying the the preset that I

already have and it's way too saturated so I'm gonna bring down those

saturations I'm gonna bring I'm gonna bring that time I don't know why it just

does point one I saved it I'm gonna bring down those highlights shadows I

don't really need to deal with even though I just did there we go make it

too soft with the contrast cool the most important thing is you know if I have

two Clips right next to each other and they're literally the same exposure the

same they're just the same setting the same colors I'll just copy and paste the

attributes which you can do command C is copy and then command option or alt V is

going to be paste attributes so it'll only paste what you any attributes that

you select like for instance this one's color you can also paste attributes such

as a pasty and all that stuff but this one's just color and last thing I'll do

okay this is when the project is done this is what it looks like it's done

I'll actually hit I and you on oh I know too that that will be my portion that

I'm going to export that kind of just builds the walls on that over the export

and yeah I can either hit command M or I could just go into the menu and and hit

media export media h.264 or high bitrate name it render at maximum death

render maximum quality if I have time I'll just I'll just be BRR - and I'll

just go you know 2020 oh yeah you use previews I don't use previews because I

all my previews are 720p so the quality is lower so that the playback is faster

it's a performance thing it's a whole nother video we won't go into it so yeah

2020 PPR pass - this is if I have like tons of time and I'm like not rushing

the project I could either go queue that will open up a Adobe Media encoder so

that I can keep working in Adobe while that's encoding or I'll just go straight

to export alright guys thank you so much for joining I hope you guys learn

something from just watching my workflow and having me explain it and I hope it

helps you produce your own vlogs amazing beautiful logs I will be answering every

single comment that goes on down there so take care we'll see you in the next

video

what do you call a dog magician elaborate Cadabra door hahaha I'm gonna

give you a minute hello
