[@normiereview]

Not related to the video. But Thankyou for using Sumi as the example. She was best girl.. 😍

[@arpitsharmai]

How about I use a planar tracker and then attach my mask on that, instead of keyframing the polygan ?? Will that help ? Pleaseee reply !!!!!!

[@PeeJ_ENT]

yes that will work

[@Endriu192]

I have a question. How to put lighting on the mask? And how to move mask in each frame not smooth?

[@PeeJ_ENT]

you can light the footage that is being masked by putting the node you are using for lighting on that footage ( in this case it would be before the green input of the merge) and you have to put multiple keyframes on your mask in order for it to stay on the shape

[@iyanriaz9075]

what is that blue box on the node graph?

[@PeeJ_ENT]

kzbin.info/www/bejne/nprYZ56MZ9een9E

[@Keriys]

hey bro is there anyway where i can have my 1st polygon on one frame and 2nd on a different frame without having the 1st showing?

[@PeeJ_ENT]

If they are two different nodes, keyframe the level on the one you want to disappear from 1 to 0

Is there anyway to delete ONE point in ONE frame and leave all the others intact?

[@PeeJ_ENT]

Nope, you have to move it

[@mlitsh4873]

I did the masking and the same node structure as you but when i add a text or a box it goes into my masked object and it cant escape the frame of the masked object how can i fix that?

After putting the polygon into the input, the only thing I can see is a checker board screen without my mask. Do you know how to fix it bro?

[@PeeJ_ENT]

I'm not quite sure, you can trying joining the discord server for more help but just make sure all the nodes are connect in the right places to the right colors

[@bullseye8053]

If i make screen recording does it quality goes down?

[@PeeJ_ENT]

depends on the bitrate of your recording, higher bitrate, higher quality, but larger file size

Do you make screen recording first while doing editing ? Beacuse i downloaded 2 episodes but da vinci resolve doesn't tkae suppert beacuse the episodes are MKV file but stile i converted MKV into mp4 but still it didn't take support why please help

[@PeeJ_ENT]

depends on what version you are using, I'm on 17.4 and it takes MKV, most likely it is the codec the video is exported in which is the problem, you should be fine if it is h.264
