Hey guys, what’s up.
My name is Serge,
and welcome back to my channel.
In this video, we’re going to learn how to
add the hologram effect you just seen.
Let’s jump right into Final Cut Pro and get started.
Before you start,
you’ll need a couple shots for this effect.
First, you’ll need a screen recording of your phone screen,
where you interact with it,
and you’ll need to film yourself,
interacting with the imaginary hologram screen.
Try and match the motion of your screen recording
as close as you can.
Import both these clips into Final Cut Pro,
and add the clip your yourself interacting with a hologram
to your timeline.
Skim your clip,
and add a marker on the frame
where you want your hologram to pop up.
Continue skimming your clip,
and add a marker on every action.
Move your playhead back to your first marker,
and connect your screen recording clip above your timeline.
Go through this clip,
and add markers at the start of every movement in this clip.
Next, let’s retime this clip
to line up the actions in the bottom clip,
First, I’ll make the top clip into a connected storyline
with the keyboard shortcut Command G,
and to help see both clips a little better,
use the X position parameter in the inspector
to move the screen recording clip over to the right.
To line up my first markers,
I’ll just add a hold frame at the start with Shift H,
and use the handle at the end to line up my markers.
My next two markers line up already, so I’ll just leave it.
For the next one,
I have a bit of a stutter towards the end of the scroll,
so I’ll just take this extra part right here,
speed it up,
and ripple trim the part after to line up my two next markers.
I’ll add another hold frame to line up the last swipe.
Skim through your clip,
and make sure everything lines up.
You might have to make a couple tweaks just so it looks right.
Next thing we need to do
is add some perspective to this clip,
and add an animation at the start and at the end.
Before we do, I want to take a minute

Now, back to Final Cut Pro.
Since Final Cut Pro doesn’t have built in 3D controls,
we’ll use the Distort tool to add perspective to our clip.
First, Command click all the clips in your connected storyline,
and combine them into a compound clip with Option G.
With the compound clip selected,
select the crop tool, and crop off the right and left sides
to the edges of the screen recording.
If you want to,
you can also crop off any unnecessary parts
from the top and bottom of your clip.
Next, switch to the Distort tool,
and use the corner handles to add perspective to your screen,
and place it in the frame.
You might have to play around with this
until it looks like it belongs in your frame.
Click Done.
To make an intro animation,
move your playhead to the start of your connected clip,
and use the right arrow key to move it ahead about 5 frames.
Select the transform tool, and add a keyframe.
Move back to the start of this clip,
set the scale to 10 percent,
and use the on screen controls to move your clip.
Right click on each control point,
and change the motion type to linear.
Without moving your playhead,
change the scale all slider to 0,
and de-select the transform tool.
For the end animation.
move your playhead to the last marker,
select the transform tool,
and add a keyframe.
Move your playhead ahead about 5 frames,
and use a combination of scale, and x position parameter
to make the screen recording fly off screen.
Once again, try and make this match your hand movement.
Last thing we need to do,
is make our screen recording clip look like a hologram.
First, bring the opacity of this clip down to 50 %.
Next, select the color inspector,
and add a color wheels correction.
Grab the Global color puck,
and drag it all the way towards the edge on the teal or blue side.
I’m also going to bring up the overall exposure,
and saturation a bit.
Next, press Command 5 to open the effects browser,
and search for the Glow effect.
Add this to your top clip as well.
Integrate this clip into your project
and here’s our finished result.
