Masking in Adobe Premiere

Monday, October 29, 2018

Wallis Annenberg Hall (ANN), Digital Lounge


Powerful masking and tracking workflows from After Effects are available directly within Premiere Pro. Masks let you define a specific area in a clip that you want to blur, cover, highlight, apply effects, or color-correct. You can create and modify different shaped masks, draw free-form shapes using the Pen tool, and apply effects either inside or outside the masked area. For example, you can mask a person’s face by applying a Blur effect or a Mosaic effect. You can also use masking in more creative ways like applying a mask to correct a specific color.

By the end of this workshop, you’ll be able to do the following:

  • Create a mask using shape tools
  • Create a free-form shape using the Pen tool
  • Modify and move masks
  • Track masks (motion)
  • Use masks for color correction
