 hey everyone Rc here and welcome back to gal today i'm going to be showing you six different before and Alight Motion that you can apply to your footage to create a beautiful transformation so if you're an interior designer or let's say a makeup artist or anybody that requires some sort of transformational reveal these effects will make your video look more dynamic 

so i'm going to break down each effect inside of premiere pro but before we jump in i want to thank today's sponsor motion can so motion can is the creator of my favorite graphics pack for Alight it's just called graphics pack and you can purchase it from envato market you might also know it as video hive and the reason why i love it is that all of the motion graphics inside of the pack are nicely organized inside of a panel so you can just browse the different categories from kinetic titles transitions to different glitch elements and you can just click apply and it will apply to the timeline and sound effects are included as well and the best part is is that all of the graphics are responsive to whatever resolution that you're working in and any duration time changes that you make so if you want to purchase the graphics pack you can use my affiliate link below and help support the channel and you can buy a version for Alight Motion and premiere or final cut pro without further ado the time codes are below 

 let's go ahead and jump into premiere so for this demo i'm using footage from art grid and the reason why i love art grid is that you can download the raw original file so raw or log which is kind of a milky texture so you can color grade it how you want so for this i'm doing before and after the color grade so on video layer one it's the clip the exact same clip but in the log format and then on top is the graded version if you're interested in learning how to grade log footage you can click up here to watch my full tutorial so it's important that they're stacked on top of each other here because you want them to play at the exact same time because these are the same clips

 so if you have a photo for example you'll want to make sure that the framing is in the exact same framing so put the tripod in the same place press record or take a photo and then after the transformation put it in the exact same place and take a photo and have the same framing so that way these effects will look a lot better so there's a little bit you have to do in production before you go into post all right so the wipe go up to effects search for wipe and down here underneath the wipe category you'll find this wipe transition 

     we're going to drag and drop it onto the clip here and now we'll have this basic wipe and you'll notice that it's already started here in the beginning what we need to do is actually roll this in just slightly so that way you get the full effect and to make it longer you can click on the end of the transition and roll it out to make it a little bit slower of a wipe so i think that this works just fine but it's kind of hard to see this line so to make it more obvious i like to go into effect controls make sure that you have the transition selected and i like to add a border width for this 

    i'm going to choose 15 and change the color to white so now we have our nice wipe reveal and it's easy to see the wipe with this white border but what if you want it to loop so for example if you want to export this as a video or as a gif that you can embed on your website to show a before and after loop so what you can do is you can take this wipe transition copy it by pressing a command c or control c on a pc and then pasting it command v or control v and then we're just going to roll in the end a little bit so there's a little bit of the before clip at the end and now we need to reverse it by clicking on this reverse so if you're a fan of missy elliott put your thing down flip it in reverse it it's your flippin nipple planian my nails but it is a little slow

   so i'm going to actually just shorten these clips a little bit here because it's a little slow and i want the wipes to almost meet by extending them out so it's almost like an immediate white back and forth and then here i'm going to press o as an out point and i'm going to make sure that the loop playback button is on so make sure it's blue so this is what the loop looks like there we go so what you can do is you can just export this as an mp4 movie file and actually use an app called gifski that's completely free and you can just drag that file and it creates a really fast gif you can also export a gif in premiere pro but it takes a little bit more work to try to find the right settings 

 so it's not a huge file so i recommend using gifs key instead if you want to add before and after text as the wipe is happening this is what you can do you can select the text type tool here and here let's just type out before and then i can duplicate this graphic so let's roll it to meet the exact lenth

                            Soft edit Transition

Introduction:

Hello and welcome to Rc edits in this two part tutorial we're going to look at 8 awesome and easy transitions, that you can make in a matter of seconds even though you could make a preset for some of them these transitions, are so simple that they don't require a preset at least in my opinion this two-part tutorial is a collaboration.

Clips

hey everyone glad to be here you can find the first four transitions , in this video and the other four in the video that is linked at the end of this one anyway it's time to start some editing after the quick message from our sponsor vdivo.net vdfo is a great source for free and premium stock footage, for example all the clips used in this tutorial video are coming from vdivo and besides the more than 100 000 video clips they've also got a big collection of music and sound effects be sure to check them out and use the discount code storytime20 to claim a 20 discount on one of their premium plans, the links can be found in the video description ok now it's time to jump over to premiere and look at 

Transition:

The first transition the first one is a simple zoom transition, and i've already got two clips ready on the timeline to show you how to do this one the first step here is creating an adjustment layer, you can do this in the project panel click on the new icon and then select adjustment layer and then accept the default settings and click ok you can now drag this adjustment layer over to the timeline and place this on top of the two clips then shorten the length of the adjustment layer until it's somewhat equal on both sides.

Effects:

 Next we're going to add an effect in the effects panel we're going to search for the transform, effect you'll find this one under video effects distort i'm going to apply this effect to the adjustment layer, and then put the playhead right between the two clips and you can also zoom in to be sure that it's right in the middle now.

Keyframes:

 i'm going to move over to the effects control panel and i'm going to look at scale properties of the transform effect first i'm going to enable keyframes, by clicking on the stopwatch icon here then i'm going to move that first keyframe, with value 100 a couple of frames back and then create another keyframe with value 100 and move that one a bit forward the playhead is still in the middle between the two clips and that's where we're going to create a new keyframe with value 300 and now as you can see the zoom effect.

Conclusion:

now you've got this awesome glitch transition, thanks again jill and that indeed was awesome and easy and that also concludes this first part of the eight easy transitions let me know in the comments if you would like to see another transition collaboration, video with storytime and premiere basics and now you can click here to see the other four transitions, that's it for this one thanks a lot for watching and i hope you have a wonderful  day you 

In today's video, I'm going to show you how to create a rapid photo shuffle effect. So that way you can start using it in your own videos. And today's video is sponsored by Envato Elements. I'll tell you more about them later on.

 For now, let's go ahead and jump on in. So here inside of Alight Motion , I have this folder full of all the photos I want to use. I'm going to open this up by double clicking and I have it set to the icon because that way you can easily see all of the photos. And the reason why I like this is that I can go ahead and move some photos around to rearrange it in the order that I want. And now we need to change the duration of the photo so that way it doesn't default to like 3 seconds each. Select all of them by pressing command or control. A control click and then go down to speed in duration. And instead of 3 seconds since this timeline is 24 frames per second, I'm going to have each photo be a court order of 24 frames per second, which is zero eight press okay. And now if we drag all of these clips into our timeline, 

so it goes really fast here. Now, it may not be fast enough. You can certainly change it to zero four to make it even faster. But I like zero eight. And the next thing you need to do is just go through quickly on each photo and make sure it's at the right scale. So you'll select the photo, go up to effect controls, scale it down, and make sure that the image is fully in view. So now when we play it back, it's rapidly going through the photos, but we need to make it more dynamic. 

This is where we're going to go into effects. But first, my name is Kelsey and welcome back to Premier Golf. This video is helping you out so far. Sure. To give it a thumbs up as well as subscribe. And if you're looking for some fast photo effects where you don't need to actually go in and animate yourself but use templates, you can use my link below to get seven days free of unlimited templates from import two elements. I just search for fast photo shuffle underneath video templates and over 3000 templates came up. For example, this fast photo slideshow for after effects is really cool because it has a really rapid zoom out effect similar to what we were doing in this video. But if you need a specific software, you can get on here and you can search for after effects Alight Motion  Apple Motion Final Cut Pro or DaVinci. If we wanted something for Premiere, for example, we can select that and just go through and see these different types of photo effects that they have here.

 Now we've put a link below to my favorite photo slideshow templates from import elements, so you can go check that out as well. And of course, you can find more than just photo slideshow templates. If you go to video templates in general, you can see that you can browse by broadcast packages, elements, infographics, logos, things they have titles and lower thirds. There's also tons of royalty free background music and sound effects as well, which is super useful, especially when you're editing videos where you just need to go in and find a sound effect to test out. There's unlimited downloads with elements so you can test out as much as you want. And after your seven days free, if you would like to subscribe to elements, you can use my link below to get 70% off your first month. All right, thanks so much to Elements for sponsoring today's video. And let's jump back into the video to go to the effects panel and search for transform. And this is underneath the distort folder double click on Transform. So it's applied to the first photo. So using the transform effect here, I'm going to animate the scale so it starts bigger and gets smaller. So let's start the scale at 150. 

             METERIALS FILE HERE

Let's type in 150 here next to scale. And then what we need to do is adjust the anchor point so we can click on this vertical anchor point and move it down. So that way it's better in frame and then we can click on toggle animation. And then at the very end of this photo, we can then bring it back down to 100 and you'll notice there's a little black line at the bottom. We just need to adjust the anchor point slightly down so that disappears and control. Click on the last keyframe and choose is end. So that way it's a bit more smooth of an animation. So what we can do now is copy this clip command C and then lasso and select all of the other clips and right click or control click and select paste attributes. 

And this time we're just going to paste the transform effects. 

So the transform effect has now been pasted on all the other photos, and you're going to see that a few of the photos we need to make adjustments on because the transform effect isn't going to fit all the photos because they're all different sizes and image resolutions. Do you see here on this photo we need to make adjustments, so let's select it, go up to effect controls here and we can adjust the anchor point. So it's a little bit lower. Somebody's going to go through quickly and fix the anchor

Hello, welcome to this new tutorial dedicated to  Alight Motion , one of the best video editors you can use to make professional videos by combining media files and adding effects, transitions, adjustments and great pieces of text. It is part of the Creative Cloud bundle for both Windows and MacOS under a subscription plan. As you open Alight Motion  its Home Screen shows up with the list of your latest projects made. 

On the left side click on Open Project to browse for others you have or go to New Project to start from a new one. At this point the Import page opens, where you can set the project name and its location on top and select the first media files to import on it. Click on Create to switch to the main Edit interface, as you can see from the top left corner. This is the place where you build your video with the timeline at the bottom and the several panels that change depending on the workspace chosen from the top right corner. In this video we will stick with the default Editing workspace, but you can always retrieve any panel from the Window tab. Any Alight Motion  project collects several independent pieces of videos called Sequences. In this video we will work with a single one for simplicity. Make sure to set the correct video and audio options from Sequence, Sequence Settings... Pick the right template from Editing Mode or select Custom to set the options on your own including frame rate, frame size, pixel aspect ratio, sample rate and much more. 

To import other media files just drag and drop these inside the sequence or switch to the Import page to select these and import them from the Project panel on the left. All these files are collected within the timeline as blocks called clips. Videos and images inside Video Tracks (with V letter) in blue and pink color respectively. Sound files inside Audio Tracks (with an A letter) in green color, complete with their sound waveforms, such as one per stereo channel. To check your timeline content use your mouse wheel to scroll in time and hold down the ALT (or the Option) key to zoom in and out around your cursor. 

The Program panel above shows your sequence content where the blue playhead is placed. Click once on the timeline to check different frames or drag it to show frames sequentially. Whereas use the player to playback in real time, adjusting quality with Playback Resolution in case this results laggy. Now let's see how to edit clips with the Selection Tool on the left. Click on any clip to select it. Drag it to move it in time or in another track. Video frames and audio are linked together by default - to make these independent just right-click on these and go to Unlink. In case clips overlap in time the Program panel above shows the clip on the top video track in front of all other clips lower in position. To adjust the duration of any clip just drag its edges. This cuts content from video and audio files unless you enable the Rate Stretch Tool (or R key). With this tool you extend or shorten any clip freely by changing its speed rate instead of its content.

 So extended clips will be played slower with a rate lower than 100% and shorter clips will become faster with a rate more than 100%. To split any clip enable the Razor Tool (or C key) and click on it! You can cut, copy and paste any selected clip by right-clicking on it. Go to Clear to remove the clip definitely. Use CTRL (or CMD) and Z to undo. You can also open the History panel to manage all your actions made. On the left side you have several buttons to manage each track. 

With the eye button you can hide and show the track content; with the Mute (or M) button you can mute any audio track and use the Solo (or S) button to play the current audio track solo by muting all the others. You can also click on the Record button to record from your microphone. From Edit, Preferences, Audio Hardware... set the input source to use and then click on the Record button to start recording on such track. With the lock button you can prevent any modification on the current track so that you can't move or edit any of its clips inside.

 With the Mix track at the bottom you can tune the master volume such as the audio level coming from the entire sequence. This is very useful in case the Audio Meter on the right shows red levels of distortion. To add or remove any track just right-click on any empty space on the left. To adjust the clip content you can open the Effect Controls panel on the left. This lists all the properties for the clip selected, depending on its kind. Images and video frames show Motion to set position, scale and inclination as well as Opacity to set any transparency level. In particular you can uncheck Uniform Scale to correct the aspect ratio of the clip and remove its black bars if you have them. On audio clips you can adjust volume level and channel panning between the left and the stereo channel. Click on the fx button to hide or show your changes and use the Revert button on the rig

So you want to add camera shake to your next video, I'm gonna show you how to do it right within Alight Motion in this new Alight Motion tutorial.

 I'm going to show you two different styles, of camera shake one is more of this earthquake sort of dramatic effect and the other is more of a handheld look, and I'm going to show you two ways to do that one so first with this more earthquake stylized effect this is created by an adjustment layer and the transform effect.

So I've got this basketball clip right here and if I drag this on to my timeline it's a pretty smooth shot nothing's really happening and I've added the camera shake,  whenever the basketball hits the ground so first things first I want to create an adjustment layer and add that to track two so click new item and choose adjustment layer select okay and then just put it on top of your video track.

now I'm gonna zoom in here and you want to zoom in and have the adjustment layer, start right when the ball is hitting the ground and then maybe go for another seven or eight frames half a second or so and then, I'm just going to trim the end of this adjustment layer now adjustment layers, apply whatever effect is applied to that layer to everything beneath it and the reason we use adjustment layers is so that we can easily duplicate this camera shake effect to any clip or throughout this same clip go to your effects bin and type in transform, it should be under your distort properties and place that on the adjustment layer and the effects controls bin will now edit this effect notice though one thing is that you can't apply this sort of movement and rotation effect.

 we're going to do just with the basic motion properties of an adjustment layer, see if I move this around or rescale it up or down nothing actually applies to this clip beneath it and that's because only effects that are applied to this adjustment layer, are applied to this basketball layer and that's what this transform effect is so if I move the position around see how I do this now this video clip is moved so the first thing I'm going to do is set a keyframe, for scale at the very beginning of this clip this is tellingAlight Motion that at this point we want the scale to be 100% and we create a keyframe by clicking this little time watch right here while you're at it go ahead and create a keyframe for rotation position, as well then up here in the effects controls go to the very end of this clip and then create a new keyframe for each of these properties as well with this button add or remove keyframe so in between here we're going to add some changes to create this effect but we want the beginning, and end of this adjustment layer to be at the normal settings so let's go right here in the middle and we're gonna do sort of like a zoom in zoom out and then rotate in rotate out so let's scale it up to 115 and you'll notice that when I put my timeline indicator right here in the middle and then I type in a new number for scale it adds a keyframe same for rotation let's go to 2 so you can see this starting to work that it zooms in and then out zooms in and out now.

 let's just add some position animation, and this is just going to be moving it down moving it around this is just trying to make it feel a little bit more organic so maybe 5 or 6 keyframes in the middle here you might want to play around and that's pretty good so let's play through it nice so you could go in and tweak those to see if you want more or less shake the other thing I did with this original version, was I added a subtle bit of blur to it and that was with the directional blur so type in directional direct and you'll see that the directional blur pops up we're going to apply it to the adjustment, layer again we're going to set keyframes at the beginning and end at 0 and 0 and then go to the end and apply these keyframes as well and then in the middle we're going to create our blur so first I'm going to increase the blur length just so I can see what its gonna look like and then adjust the direction to something like 77 degrees or something and then.

 I'm gonna bring back my blur length to 15 again it depends on how dramatic you want to be pretty cool huh neat so now the beauty of this is we can just go to the next spot where the ball bounces, right there and then copy and paste this adjustment layer or simply hold the option key down and drag this clip that's on a Mac on a PC it would be can I believe alt clicking and dragging and we can just duplicate this camera shake over and over boom boom boom cool huh awesome so that's more of that earthquake style.

 let's look at the handheld style I'm gonna show you two ways to do it one is basically the same thing with adjustment layer, so I'm actually not gonna walk through this entire sequence of what I did but you can see here that I've added this adjustment layer I've added the transform property and I've added position scale and rotation keyframes, the key is to be subtle so here you can see that there's just the subtle movement it's not like in the earthquake one and it's very very minimal adjustments, to all of these different properties so that's one way you can sort of custom manually do it but there's an easier and more organic way to do it that I got from my buddy Curt Anderson over at Adobe masters so what we are going to need is a stable shot that we want to add motion to which is the street shot.

 so I'm just going to duplicate, this over here see how there's no motion at all and then 

I'm going to need a shot that has motion so you do need that separate shot I can use this basketball shot and I'm just going to place it above this clip and I'm gonna, just make it the same length as that clip so see how this basketball shot has movement the camera movement already I'm basically going to use the warp stabiliser effect and reverse-engineer, it so it applying the movement that's being removed from this shot to this shot okay I know that's a little confusing but let's just show you how to do it so if we go to our effects type in warp we find warp stabiliser put this on top of the basketball clip and now it's going to analyze it and then we're going to change some settings so we actually want to change the method here from subspace warp to position you can also try position scale, and rotation but I've found that position seems to work best for this handheld motion style for framing.

we're gonna leave that stabilize crop and auto scale and then smoothness this will actually increase or decrease the amount of shake you have so the more smoothness the smoother, your footage is on this clip the shaky er it's going to be on the street clip that I'm adding camera shake to so now if I play through this while there's still movement it tries to do a little bit of stabilizing it doesn't matter if there's a if it's stable or not because what I'm going to do is actually copy this warp stabiliser effect selecting it command C on a Mac that'd be control C on a PC I'm gonna move that basketball clip now notice what happens I play this clip nothing's happening if I select this clip and then paste the warp stabiliser, effect notice how there is now movement so you get this more organic natural movement.

 so if that's a little bit too much movement, we can go in here let's drop this down to like something like 10 percent copy this again go to this other clip oops not delete the clip but delete the effect and then paste it so now you see that's a little bit less of hand movement now, this organic movement is going to depend on what clip we are using to add the warp stabilizer to so you can use different Clips to get different kinds of handheld movement but again this is a quick way to create that organic handheld motion without having to go through and manually keyframe it yourself.
