Make Footage ANY SHAPE You Want - EASY Premiere Pro Tutorial

In this tutorial I'll show you how to make your footage any shape you want without the hassle of using masks. In fact, all you need is premiere pro and a png image of the shape you want your footage to be.

Bonus: I'll also be showing you several other effects you can add on to really enhance your commentaries, letsplays or whatever you want to use this for.

First off, I'll show you how to add effects like drop shadows. Then I'll show you how to move and zoom your footage within the track matte - it's actually very easy to do!

I'll then show you a fancy technique that allows you to use black and white footage as a mask. Great for ink transitions.

And the last two use after effects. Firstly, I'll show you how to create a glowing line border around your footage (kind of like Ali Abdaal). Then we'll finish up with a cool boxing cut out.

I hope you enjoy this tutorial!

Let me know what you want to see next.

This is fantastic. Thank you for this! I used to do a lot more video editing years ago in college, but I've since stopped and now I'm super rusty. Really appreciate this refresher; got exactly what I needed and more :D

You are an absolute legend my man! I have been trying to find how to do this for so long that every time I try to figure it out I end up giving up. I saw this edit from markiplier video originally. Genuinely thank you so much man!

I was having trouble with this so bad! In my video i need the mask object to have a fixxed position. Like... perma fixxed. And I often need to reposition the underlaying video. However when I do that, the Mask shape move with it. Your instruction at 3.46 (offset in combination with 'track matte key') was the solution after HOURS of trial and error frustration. Thanks so much!!!! Liked and followed!

[VideoWebb]

Fantastic! Giving me ideas. Couldn't do it myself but knowing more about what to look for in a video editor. Thanks!
