Spikey please can you do me a favor can you please get my Joby Gorilla pod please

just do it

hey everybody and welcome back to the Premiere Gal YouTube channel where I
post weekly video production tips and tricks to help you create better videos
and in this video I'm showing you how to use telekinesis to move objects in
Premiere Pro before we get into it I just want to remind you that you can
enter my monthly giveaway to win some awesome video stuff so go to
PremiereGal.com/giveaways to enter alright so here we are in Premiere Pro
and I currently have a sequence with two video layers that has two clips and
they're the same shots but one shot if I turn off a video layer two is a shot of
just my couch without premiere pup and I on it or the Joby Gorillapod and now if
I turn back on video layer two you can see it's the same shot in the same angle
but with us on it and the gorilla pod now if you look closely above the
gorilla pod you'll see that there's a line of thread so you can also use a
fish line in this case but I use thread to connect the gorilla pod to a boom
pole so just have someone off frame who can move the boom pole with the thread
attached to the gorilla pod while you're recording and what this does is it
subtly moves the gorilla pod across the frame making it look like the subject is
telekinetically moving it towards the subject so the next step is in
post-production all you have to do is use an opacity
mask to mask out that thread line from the shot so it's less obvious so to do
this just select layer two then use the pen tool to just draw a mask in the
frame around the thread then you can add about 40 points of feathering just to
make it more subtle then hit invert to invert the mask so all we see is the
video layer below in side of the mask essentially showing everything except
the thread so now we have two key frame this mask to move with the Joby
Gorillapod so hit the toggle animation icon then move frame by frame by
clicking this icon and then you can adjust the mask with the pen tool
accordingly to make sure you're covering it up until the end of the shot you want
to mask it out as best as you can so that way you have a more convincing shot
so once you're done you can see if I select the mask and scrub through the
shot you can see the mask path move in animate with the Joby Gorillapod
I also filmed one last close-up shot of me with a bit of blood underneath my
nose in reference to eleven from stranger things so I just cut from the
wide shot to this close-up shot here in the timeline so it was just three shots
total in one mask and that's it anyway you guys thanks so much for watching if
this video helped you out be sure to give it a thumbs up and subscribe and
lastly a question for you do you think you're going to be using this effect in
your future projects thanks again for watching and I'll see
you all very soon
you
