Introduction:

Hello everybody video Lancer is on in this video I will show you how to create such a zoom transition directly in Alight Motion, last time we reviewed how to create the similar transition and Alight Motion but as contrasted to After Effects Alight Motion, is rather limited in tools for creation of any effects so it is impossible to achieve, the same level of quality however we will make the most similar transition out of the available effects

Transition:

 so let's start create a new adjustment layer, and place it above the first clip shorten the adjustment layer so that its duration was no longer than a quarter of a second now we'll make zoom out animation, to do this it is necessary to add mirrored image copies in order to fill these holes it is easy to do in Alight Motion with the help of motion tile effect but unfortunately there is no similar effect in Alight Motion.

  so we have to use more complicated workaround rename adjustment layer, and to tile and use replicate effect set count parameter on three apply mirror effect place reflection Center accurately on the junction of two tiles copy mirror effect and make reflection for the opposite side you repeat these actions for upper and lower tiles you duplicate this adjustment layer, to the third video track remove unnecessary effects and call it scale in now apply.

Transform:

transform effect set scale value on 300 this will return image size into its original scale, due to tripling the image has lost its original quality but take into account that the transition will be quick and blurred so quality change, will be quite obscure set animation key for scale on the first frame of the layer set value 100 in the end of the layer let's add motion blur, to do this switch off this checkbox and set maximum value for shutter angle to do smoother animation edit keys graphs you.

   now let's create animation for the second part of the transition duplicate, the adjustment layer and call it scale out edit Keys graphs in order to make ending of the transition smooth you now let's add chromatic aberrations duplicate, the adjustment layer on the 4th video track remove unnecessary effects and call it aberrations extend the lair until it is a little longer than layers with scale animation, apply VR Digital glitch effect to this layer set zero value for parameter distortion rate animate parameter color distortion.

Keys:

 so that the peak was at the junction you make animation smoother with the help of graphs you now we'll add optical distortions apply lens distortion effect, animate parameter curvature so that the peak was at the junction you in order for animation to look better keys graphs, for scale and curvature can be edited a little it's ready in the final.

 let's add a sound effect you you it's ready as effects of this transition are distributed, on several layers it's impossible to save it as a standard preset however you can create nest sequence for it that can be used in other projects now you can drag this transition from project panel, into any sequence before doing this you have to switch on the option of inserting sequence from other sequences you that is all if you like similar effects.

Ending:

 you can get thousands of similar transitions ready for use all the transitions are professionally, animated and also they include a sound effect for convenience every transition has preview and is applied by simple drag-and-drop, method if you want to get this package please follow the link you can see on the screen I do hope this video tutorial was useful for you subscribe to my channel not to miss new video tutorials this was video Lancer see you later.

this video is brought to you by story blog whatever you guys like Rc and welcome to where we recreate effects for famous movies and music videos and today we're having a look at three more effects from the music video seeker mode by Travis Scott featuring Drake but today we are going to do things differently because Jordy still on vacation together with his girlfriend Kim but I'm sure that they are missing us isn't that right mmm that hurts [Music] guys and that's supposed to be in this video I mean look around me I got better things to do anyway since there's a camera in me 

now I'd like to make a quick shout out to story blocks our channel sponsor sorry blocks is an online library where you can find Alight Motion  templates stock footage transitions video effects and a ton more I'm currently in Iceland making a beautiful travel video and a lot of the shots that I'll be taking here will also be published to their library so if you already have a membership you can just download them when they are available and if you aren't a member yet well then definitely make sure to check it out by clicking the first link in the description below walk further geordie as for today 

we're again having a look at psycho mode from Travis Scott and Drake because last week we showed you how to do two hyperlapse effects and a slanting effect in this video we are recreating in other three effects but this time it's all gonna be in Premiere Pro but first let's build a nice set so we're giving the cars an extra touch we're going to put these specular from spiffy gear under a car so you get that neon look like all those student cars from need for speed and fast and furious in the sync mode music video there is a certain effect named data machine this is an effect where the data of the footage is manipulated in order to achieve this kind of glitchy pixel transition now we are going to recreate its transition with Premiere Pro and an additional software if you want to create a good data mushing effect you have to create motion in your shot either do this with a camera movement or you can do it in post-production like we are going to do this way the motion will be in tensor and the effect will come out better in the music video you can also see two kinds of data mushing one we are averaging mushes and one where a person is cut out we are going to explain the one where the person is cut out because the other one works exactly the same for the one with a person cut out we are going to use a green screen in the same scene that you are putting your subject try to imagine lighting as good as possible so it really looks like he's standing in the scene to director in front of the green screen and should your background without the actor

 now let's get into Alight Motion from the project panel drag the clip from Janak into the timeline on this we are going to add a pre glitch so go to your effects panel and look for the turbulent displacement effect from the effects control panel you can set it as placement to horizontal displacements then scroll to almost the end of the clip and enable the animation for the amount and set this to zero go to the end and decrease it to 350 now we are going to set the other parameters so stick with me set-asides 253 the offset to 1080 2 by 366 it complexity 210 evolution to 187 and a random seed to 94 I know this was fast but normally you already got a kukri glitch after this you can put the background on track number 1 in a green screen shot on track number 2 and go to the opacity properties in the effects control panel you want to click on the pen tool which you can use to create a mask roughly create a mask around your actor to remove your surroundings after you have done this look for the ultra key effect in the effects panel drag that to your green screen clip and with the color picker you can then select the green to remove it now you have your actor standing in your scene simple as that nest everything together and add a simple zoom in to add some movements you can do this by animating the scale from 100 to 105 sadly you can dead Amash and Premiere Pro so we have to use a different software named data marsh studio this is a free software which you can use for data moshing and you can download it through the link in the description below before we can start with the moshing we have to have two clips to wash it all together and create a transition that's why we have to render out or two clips 

 we just made this has to be done one by one now you're probably thinking why the green-screen end well we'll come back to that later after you have two Clips you can start up the data March to do until ask you to open a project or create one just simply create a new one and create a new folder for it I'm going to do this on my desktop so we can easily find it back later when this is done adjust the width and the height to 1920 by 1080 and click Save on the top right you can then import your two videos you want to March this has to be done one by one when locating your footage it can be that you don't see your footage in your folder 

I had the same issue but that can be fixed easily adjust the format on the right bottom corner to do one from your footage now you will see all your clips select the one you want and click import double click on your clip that has to come first you can then insert it in the timeline through the panel in the right bottom quarter set the starting and end frame and press insert do the same for your second clip but check delete iframe check box from now on of course you can add as many clip as you want just don't forget to delete the iframes after you have done this set the beginning of the iframe box above the timeline to your begin clip now you can hit the export tab on the left bottom corner and press export effort it's done exporting you can hit the play button under export tab and check out what you have created fine-tune if necessary if not the program already renders it in the folder your special created for this 

let's get back into Premiere Pro and import your data Marsh clip create a new sequence with the data Marsh video on the first break now you have a data Marsh effect for everything glitches but we want to cut out Lorenzo so that he stops glitching earlier that is where the green screen shot comes in place the green screen shot on top of the data Marsh clip sync them both and trim the green screen shot to where you want it to start go into your effects control panel and to the opacity properties enable the animation for the opacity a let's start at zero go a few frames further in time and change it to a hundred another thing you can do is let the data merge background fade back to the regular background just place your background on the same track as a data Maj make a cut in the data merge background where you wanted to end and place a regular background against it and the cross dissolve if necessary whoo I hope you all got that because it will give a very cool transition effect if done right [Music] very cool indeed but now let's dive straight into the second effect which is going to be these moving overlays you can see right here in the sake of mode music clip you can do this effect on every shot you want but we are going to use our background and green-screen shot again to make it ourselves easier back in Premiere Pro you want to place your background on track number one on top of that we're going to place a star clip which we got from story blogs once you have placed your star clip on the second track create a small rectangle mask from the top to the bottom starting from the left side in the opacity property you can set its feather to zero and go to the timeline and make a cut after three frames in the clip after that cut you need to adjust your mask so that the left side is aligned with the right side of the mask of the previous clip do this until you reach the middle of your shop you can always make your shot smaller towards to end so it will end right in the middle then

 we are going to add a second star clip above the first start but what you now want to do is make all the cuts first and then one by one copy the opacity properties from the track below to the new star clip after you have done this you will offset the entire track 3 frames so that it starts when the first star clip is already one step further do this process another 6 to 7 times so that you can see a cool animation of moving masks I know it's a tedious job but it will give a very cool effect once you are done with this you can nest it all together and now you have one clip with the mask animations the next thing to do is duplicating your nested sequence as many times as you want position them on the timeline on the point where your previous animations of the mask opens up on the left side when doing this you'll create an endless loop of moving masks now again nest everything together make a duplicate of this nested sequence and in the effects panel search for flip horizontal add this to the top NASA sequence and now you have moving masks on both sides the only thing you now have to do is go to the effects control panel and in the opacity properties set the blending mode to screen you can also adjust the opacity to around 40% and before we forget add your green-screen shell to the top wallah there you have it a crew moving mask background 

okay guys I know it's a lot of information but hold on just a little longer because the next effect will be a short and easy one but with a super awesome result we're going to recreate this 2d 3d effect from the music clip the most important thing of the effect is a camera movement they do this will determine the outcome of the effects we're filming on the wide-angle lens so you can go really close to your subject when doing this you will create a bigger parallax effect without moving your camera too much let your subject stand still except for one element like his hands or even its eyebrow then while filming do small movement to one side this can be up or down or to the sides easy as that fire up  again and now import your footage into a new sequence then look for the wanted starting position and make it cut there go a few frames further and time and again make it cut where your movement ends delete everything else when you only have your short clip of your movement duplicate this on the same track right next to the original right click on the duplicate and look for speed and duration check the reverse speed checkbox and that's it you can now nest these two together and duplicate them as much as you want to create a longer effect just like this [] and that was it for today guys I know it was much but I hope you enjoyed it and learned everything you wanted to learn Thank You

hey everybody Nathaniel Dodds from Tuck vidcom and today we're gonna talk about some  Alight Motion, video editing specifically this blurring whip pan a transition it's so easy to make and save you can save it as a preset you're absolutely gonna love it it's so sweet and smooth and just right now if you do enjoy this tutorial, make sure you subscribe to the channel 

    so you can check out all the Alight Motion After Effects, video editing tutorials you're gonna love it in fact let's check out the transition right here right now as we transition into this tutorial hey so check that out pretty cool right now what we're going to do is we've got this clip of a lion and it's gonna transition,to this leopard now here's what we need to do first and foremost we need to come over here and choose the new item icon down here in our project bin and choose to create a new adjustment layer yep that looks great 1920 1080 that's the size of my sequence perfect. 

  what I'm gonna do is I'm gonna drag it out and I'm just gonna drop it here near the split in my Clips right and I can just drag it out again I can make it as big as I want we're gonna kind of specify how big we want this adjustment layer to be in just a moment what I'm gonna do is have my down arrow key now the down arrow key is gonna move the playhead, to the end of the currently while currently targeted tracks in this case V's 1 through 3 are all targeted so any clips on those tracks are going to you know it's gonna respect the end of a clip so you can see it moves us exactly to the end of the Lions clip right at the beginning of the leopard clip all right I'm gonna hold my shift key and I'm gonna hit my left arrow key and just bump the playhead backward 5 frames and then I'm gonna take the end of my adjustment layer, clip it to there and then .

I'm gonna bump forward so hold down shift and hit the right arrow key once to bring me back to the split and the click and then I'll probably go like 1 2 to put it ten frames past because the the transitional, kind of really slow down as we enter the next clip alright so this is how it's gonna work five frames before the transition 10 frames after let's add some effects to this adjustment layer we're gonna come here to our effects panel I'm gonna hit the little search bar here I'm gonna type in offset and you can see there it is video effects, distort offset 

                     MATERIALS HERE

   I'm just gonna drag that out and drop it on the adjustment layer now this is a 1920 by 1080 document so the center X point is half the 1920 divided by 2 which is 960 now I want my offset to move a full like one frame see how this legree duplicates the frame and slides it over so I want this to get to negative 960 so I'm gonna type negative 960 just like that right and then I'm gonna, move my playhead over kind of to almost at the end of the adjustment layer you see there's the end of the adjustment layer, but I'm working up here in my animation timeline because right here on shift to Center I'm gonna select this little stopwatch which as Premiere Pro is telling me is the toggle animation button and that's going to drop what's called a keyframe.

 RIght out there great let's add another keyframe we're gonna do it before this because we we want this offset animation to take place over the course of the adjustment layer so just move the playhead back before that keyframe we just dropped and all we need to do is hit this reset parameter arrow that's gonna reset our shift Center to the default.

Ending: 

Adjustment layer you really can't go wrong save it as a preset be done with it and you know you lock in your keyframe so you don't to keep reanimating everything and it's just a nice compact tight little package for you if you really enjoy this type of transition so for creating this transition, in Premiere Pro and everything that goes along with it guys thanks for watching and that's it get it got it good Nathaniel Dodds InTouch vidcom I'll catch you in the next one and before you go make sure you subscribe to my channel for more great tutorials every day also by my course it helps us do what we do and this channel is supported by viewers just like you you can also just click the thumbnail and watch another video from this channel see you next time guys

 i wasn't sure i was gonna make this video i wasn't sure if you guys were ready for it but you know what i said the heck with it let's do it in today's video i'm gonna be showing you guys how to make three essential transitions in  Alight Motion  not only are these transitions essential to know they will make your videos pop they will make your videos slack they will make your videos 10 times better just by using these transitions and you can make them all entirely in adobe Alight Motion

 we're not going to use after effects none of that so who's ready if you're ready hit the like button down below and let's get right into it first transition i'm going to be showing you guys how to make is a simple flash transition i actually think that the default additive dissolve transition that Alight Motion  has is absolute garbage so we're actually gonna make this flash transition completely from scratch so let's just check it out so you can see it just hits on the beat it slaps on the beat and it makes the video knock harder

 so let's get into how to make this from scratch what you want to do is come down here to your left panel and go to where it says new item hit adjustment layer go ahead and just hit okay it's as easy as that and you're just going to pull that into your timeline right here in order to make this effect you're going to come up here to your effects panel you're going to type in brightness and contrast pretty simple pretty self-explanatory and we're just going to make this flash transition lasts about six frames start here at the very beginning 

we're just gonna tab over six frames one two three four five six we're just gonna chop this excess off right there we're gonna come to this middle frame right here and we're gonna make two keyframes one on brightness one on contrast so we're just gonna go ahead and bring up the brightness a ton we're gonna change the contrast a ton and we're just gonna get creative with it you know play around with it there's no right answer there's no right way to make these flash transitions this is just one way to do it that i think is super dope you're gonna go three frames to the left one two three this is where the very beginning is and we're just gonna reset these parameters right here so that's just gonna make a new keyframe right here at the beginning and set both of these values back to zero so now when i tab over you can see it gets really bright now we're gonna go all the way to the last frame on the right one two three and we're gonna do the same thing we're just gonna reset so it's gonna get really bright and then it's gonna go right back to normal at the very end take this adjustment layer and place it over two clips just like that so now let's check that out pretty easy very simple love this effect flash transition all the way it will always be one of those effects that i use in every single type of edit i do i think making them from scratch looks way better than additive dissolve let's move on to our next effect 

so this next effect is so dope it's just a quick blur effect it's a super subtle way to transition from one clip to the next i really love this effect i think it slaps it makes the beat go crazy so let's check it out so i don't even know if you guys noticed it or not but there is a transition happening in between these two clips right here and you can see right there it just gets blurry and then it goes back to normal so check this out now there's no transition at all right here so it just goes right into the next clip what we want to do to make this transition work is just go three frames to the left from this cut one two three and then you wanna slice that clip like it's some turkey on thanksgiving so we're just gonna make a cut right there and we're gonna go six frames to the right one two three four five six we're gonna make another cut right there and we're just gonna take both of these clips that we just cut and right click them and hit nest nesting will basically bake both of those clips into a little layer so they're their own clip now you basically combine two clips into one basically so pretty cool feature in adobe Alight Motion  and then what you got to do is come up here to your effects tab and just look up this effect called fastboard

 we're gonna throw one of them puppies on there and we're just gonna hit this blurriness right in the middle we're gonna keyframe this blurriness but not for horizontal and vertical no no no no that looks really blurry not really cool at all do not do that so we're just gonna pick horizontal or vertical for this i'm gonna go with the horizontal classic and we're just gonna increase the blur amount as much as we want so we can get very blurry as you can see like this but when you pick horizontal you get these kind of streaks across the screen instead of having horizontal and vertical where it's just all blurry that's why i like using horizontal and vertical personally and then what you got to do is go to the very beginning and we're going to go ahead and reset that keyframe we're going to go all the way to the end and hit reset again so now it's going to get not blurry then it gets blurry and then it gets not blurry again so let's check it out in full motion right here let's move on to the last transition which is also probably the most fire transition you can learn how to make there's a lot of ways to make it so let's get into it so for this last example 

i'm going to show you guys how to make a quick mask transition in  Alight Motion  masking is essential if you want to be good at editing videos it's something that i use in a lot of projects and there's a lot of ways to go about masking but i'm going to show you guys a creative way to use masking to create a transition in adobe Alight Motion  so check out this mask transition right here very quick very subtle very simple yeah i have my second clip that i'm transitioning to above my first clip that i'm transitioning from so that's step one you gotta have your second clip above your first clip step two is to just start right here at the very beginning and click on your top clip you're going to come up here to opacity and you're going to hit this pen tool right so what you're going to do is on this first frame you're just going to make like a shape or cut out whatever you want to do i like these like jagged cutouts that type of vibe so it looks like that and then what i like to do is decrease the mask feather we don't want that mask feather coming around here from this point you can see our first mask it's pretty dope i love this i love the way it looks a lot of ways to get creative with this so what i'm going to do from here is just keyframe our mask path right there at the first keyframe i'm gonna go ahead and go two frames to the right one two i'm gonna hit another keyframe right here and that's gonna basically just save this mask where it is now 

I'm gonna go one more frame to the right i'm gonna retrace this mask a little bit so i'm just gonna drag these points out a little bit more now that we're a little bit farther into this transition we're revealing more of that clip underneath just tweaking each point that we've made and we get something like this right so pretty dope and now what we're gonna do is just go two more frames to the right one two we're gonna hit another keyframe on this one so this one saves right now we're just gonna go one more to the right and we're gonna come back up here to our mask and we're just gonna take each of these points and we're gonna keep dragging them out and it's as easy as that guys all you got to do is go frame by frame just drag these points out until you get something that looks dope you might do this a few times before you get a good result now we have that one done we're going to go ahead and finish up now so we're going to come two more to the right one two make our last keyframe there and now we're gonna reveal the entire clip underneath

 so now we're gonna go one more to the right and we're gonna highlight our mask and we're just gonna pull all these points to the edges just like that perfect this is excellent great work and boom that's all it takes so now when we kind of hover back over it you can see the transition kind of just popping out at you and when we play that back in real time check out what it looks like thanks so much for watching today's tutorial i'm feeling very excited about these next couple of videos i'm coming out with these effect videos are only going to keep getting better i'm doing a ton of research on how to make better effects and digging deep into some of my old files as well to find old effects that i've used and created

Welcome to another Film Impact video tutorial. I'm the founder and senior developer of Film Impact's Premium Tools, here to show you three ways on how to use the Film Impact Wipe Impacts. And let's dive in straight away. 

I've got two clips here, two beautiful clips, and we're going to apply the Wipe Impacts. So let's dive into the effects library, type in Wipe Impacts and there you go, Wipe Impacts. Just drag, drop, see what it does out of the box. And there, that's a beautiful video transition. It's got blur, it's a nice wipe and let's give this transition a little bit more time to breathe and there you go. 

So this is the Wipe Impacts video transition straight out of the box. And the good thing is when you select the video transition and dive into the effects controls tab, you'll find all the parameter controls here. One of them is the angle control, so set it at a nice angle. 

     See, I like the sky, it's got this beautiful warm orange glow to it and let's have that introduced first and increase the feather amount. And this is actually the range from which the wipe is happening. So increase it and crank it up, and now you've got a beautiful video transition. And as you can see, we've got loads of blur applied to both the in- and outgoing clips. And we could select an outgoing clip only, and that will make sure the focus is being pulled away from the outgoing clip. So it's applied to this girl here and we can play with the amount of blur. 

So make it a little bit subtle and that's good. And let's play with the colors as well, because we can add color to this video transition. And here I'm going to have the color picker here and just take the eyedropper and sample a nice orange color here. Oh, that's a little bit too much there. But don't worry, we can slow it down. So this is beautiful. This is actually introducing the orangeness earlier on in the video transition.

     So this is working very well here. So there you go. It might be too much there, so play with that, make it subtle. But it will add to the video transition. Now, another thing that you can keep in mind is we've got the sun here. And this is a beautiful sunset, but know that brightness in your frame generally attracts the attention of the viewer, and while this is an outgoing clip you could play with the moment that the sun will disappear behind this girl's head. 

     So here, let me show you that here, because you'll see that the movement, the camera movement will eventually may turn to the sun behind her head and now the video transitions. Because I've been playing with the timing, so I've just moved the video transition here. But you can also use the slip tool. Why? Just to change where the video begins and ends. But now, just at the moment the wipe comes to the sun, it has disappeared behind her head. And this is again aiding, it's helping the transition move to the next scene. And now we've got a beautiful video transition. It feels very natural, it feels elegant, it's dreamy. It's just the way you want it, right? So, let's move on to the second example of the Wipe Impacts. We have two clips here. So, crane birds. And again, we're going to do drag, drop the video transition, see what it does. Let's give it more time to breathe.

    And I'm going to zoom in, sorry you couldn't see that, it was behind the video. That's beautiful. And now, as you can see, both clips here are very similar. We've got birds, we've got similar colors, and so the look and feel is kind of the same, even though one clip is a little bit more close and this is more of a long shot. But I find the blurriness a little bit distracting here because the clips are so similar. So now, dive into the effects controls tab, and just have the blur amount removed all the way to zero. And now you can see this is very playful. And again, increase the feather amount and see how you like that. And now you can see this white area is just getting pumped up a little bit because the exposure amount is being set at 25 percent by default. If we lowered that all the way to zero, we kind of get this dull feeling right during the wipe. And I would say avoid that. Play with the color, give it a little bit more of a brighter area. This might be too much, so again, be subtle with this. But just a little bit, we'll crank it up just enough so you would lose the dullness. And maybe even warm it up, so take a warm color. 

So this is reddish. Again, you can take the eyedropper here. So that's beautiful, the eyedropper. It might be too much again, so just be subtle. And this is beautiful. So play with how this works on your footage. And this color might work for one footage and doesn't work for another footage.

 So always look and see how that feels. Now another cool thing that I want to show you with the Wipe Impacts is that we have a Bezier curve. But let's change the Bezier curve to split. And a split will actually create a pause right in the middle of this transition. And to show you this, let's decrease

     So here, let me show you that here, because you'll see that the movement, the camera movement will eventually may turn to the sun behind her head and now the video transitions. Because I've been playing with the timing, so I've just moved the video transition here. But you can also use the slip tool. Why? Just to change where the video begins and ends. But now, just at the moment the wipe comes to the sun, it has disappeared behind her head. And this is again aiding, it's helping the transition move to the next scene. And now we've got a beautiful video transition. It feels very natural, it feels elegant, it's dreamy. It's just the way you want it, right? So, let's move on to the second example of the Wipe Impacts. We have two clips here. So, crane birds. And again, we're going to do drag, drop the video transition, see what it does. Let's give it more time to breathe.

    And I'm going to zoom in, sorry you couldn't see that, it was behind the video. That's beautiful. And now, as you can see, both clips here are very similar. We've got birds, we've got similar colors, and so the look and feel is kind of the same, even though one clip is a little bit more close and this is more of a long shot. But I find the blurriness a little bit distracting here because the clips are so similar. So now, dive into the effects controls tab, and just have the blur amount removed all the way to zero. And now you can see this is very playful. And again, increase the feather amount and see how you like that. And now you can see this white area is just getting pumped up a little bit because the exposure amount is being set at 25 percent by default. If we lowered that all the way to zero, we kind of get this dull feeling right during the wipe. And I would say avoid that. Play with the color, give it a little bit more of a brighter area. This might be too much, so again, be subtle with this. But just a little bit, we'll crank it up just enough so you would lose the dullness. And maybe even warm it up, so take a warm color. 

So this is reddish. Again, you can take the eyedropper here. So that's beautiful, the eyedropper. It might be too much again, so just be subtle. And this is beautiful. So play with how this works on your footage. And this color might work for one footage and doesn't work for another footage.

 So always look and see how that feels. Now another cool thing that I want to show you with the Wipe Impacts is that we have a Bezier curve. But let's change the Bezier curve to split. And a split will actually create a pause right in the middle of this transition. And to show you this, let's decrease
