Moving Mask Thing?!

Post by steplan15 » Sun Jan 03, 2010 2:42 am

i've seen lots of amv with lots of masking stuff, so wanted to try something.

Sony Vegas 8.0 is the program i use (very familiar and experience), im not familiar with AE or any adobe programs. if certain programs is needed to make this mask thing i ask about, please say so, im willing to learn if thats the fastest and easiest way

but, first i wanna show u something. here is my first attempt http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RiNgET6Q6Q0

the video in that link is my beta aka incomplete amv, somewhere between 0:06-0:08, i did a mask, but the mask method i use is like there is this pencil thing u click and certain portion of the video is seen within the pencil area, but this mask method has limitations, i can do masking when the video is "STILL", i wanted to know how can u mask a moving scene? please use pictures or step-by-step instructions, im more of a visual learner :book: , sorry if that is a lot to ask...^_^

1st. here's what i wanted to learn, http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XUdsa5BiZtc :up:

Specific Durations and Scenes.

0:20 - 0:23 (naruto moving hair thing while moving 90 degrees)

0:24 - 0:25 (angry red eye'd naruto making a diagonal chop move thing)

i tried to make my description accurate, o_0

2nd. one of our awesome member in ArkAngles, MisterFuzzums, http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UXmuDjfMHh8 :up:

0:06 - 0:08 (some girl while running, then goes to jump scene)

lolz...thats is all for now,,,i'll try to find more...this is a rush thread though. i apologize if there is grammar mistakes and errors, im a human being not mr.perfect >.< :sweat:

As far as I know, you have to mask the video frame by frame or use Photoshop.

You can also use vegas, but most prefer photoshop. And yes, it does take forever :(

Days and weeks?! Are you masking a 30 minute piece of video? Probably more like hours.
