Justin Odisho are you editing in your PC or in Mac???

i like you so much more than Video CoPilot

[@carlperl412]

Godd tutorial, but I hate your voice. Sounds like you are bored or high with marihuana.

[@JustinOdisho]

🤷🏻‍♂️

[@cujobo]

One small note: if the clip you're using has an audio track, be sure to disable the audio on the duplicated layer, otherwise your rotobrush clips will have a higher audio volume. nonetheless, awesome tutorial!

[@JustinOdisho]

Thanks!

[@iamstrell]

I came here thinking that its a Premier pro tutorial. But this video has inspired me to work on After effects too :) Thanks

[@JustinOdisho]

Glad you're trying new things!

I've made a similar comment in another of your videos, but it's worth repeating -- your get-to-the-point style is SO appreciated. It's way too common to find tutorials that take three minutes or more to START addressing their topic. I wished I'd seen this one two months ago before spending a weekend trying to correct a crappy greenscreen!

[@JustinOdisho]

Glad you appreciate my style!

[@mvpsandeep]

you are soo underrated dude. i saw so many premiere pro tuts and almost every tut was confusing but you taught me some major things so easily. Big thanks my man

[@JustinOdisho]

Thanks!

[@albertofrancisco9271]

I am a newbie having trouble with masking. Things just simply cleared out. Thank you Justin!

[@cadetindell5365]

You can use Ctrl + D to quickly duplicate layers in After Effects.

[@bhapampa]

I'm subscribed all the way from Nigeria. I watch a lot of your videos and I learn some good hit everyday. Thanks man.

[@JustinOdisho]

Thanks for watching!

[@subtleprelude2400]

The rotobrush and refine edge tools have come a long way. Today, the roto system is much more sophisticated and the even added rendering versions regarding quality.

[@JayGarces]

Thanks for making this video Justin! This was the clearest explanation of how to insert that text effect that I've been able to find!

[@musicbykg]

Ah finally a decent masking tutorial. Thank you!

[@altitudesounds3168]

Thanks again Fam!! your tutorials are very clear and straight forward. Im glad i subscribed to your channel! keep sharing that wisdom

[@paulgambino1463]

I was so intimidated by After Effects. However, after watching this video and actually creating that masked title sequence. I cant thank Justin enough. The best.

[@tran862005]

Awesome. You made this look so much less intimidating. I have dreaded getting into video editing because I've heard the horror stories of frame-by-frame cutouts. Much appreciated J.O.! - DesignWill

[@worldofavis60]

Was searching for this, didn't know what it was called, thanks mate

[@fanatic4sports]

Thanks! Glad they help!

No problem! I have subscribed and am checking out your website now, quality stuff I gotta say. Looking forward to making more content with my new knowledge. Keep up the good work and thank you again.

+Travelling Berks thanks!

[@dzienisz]

Hi, on 0:27 you can also use cmd+d/crtl+d to duplicate layer ;)

[@joanacandeias1641]

[@francisjtuk]

Extremely brilliant tutorial - you receive the prestigious "Best thing since sliced bread" award for this - well done !!!

[@riomanty]

what great tutorial. perfect balance between efficient and informative

[@AishawithanEye]

Wait but how to do you fix that one spot near the guy's waist after you freeze and had AE render out the rest of the clip?

[@forged4war]

Great tutorial- thanks for taking the time to share!

[@w4eg]

Why can’t every after effects tutorial be this easy?😭 super good tutorial👍

[@UnknownColour]

TRASH BLAX ゴミ箱 Because After Effects is much harder to master

[@RenderGolem]

This is a brilliant video. So clear and concise. Thank you for this!

[@JustinOdisho]

Thank you!

[@subjectifobjectif]

fantastic video, explained really simply...thanks

[@Theagames10]

After Effects crashes whenever I try and press the freeze button, and it was working perfect yesterday when I used this video! Plz help?

[@IndustrialPlasticsNanaimo]

Another awesome tutorial Justin, thank you.

[@BBDOMS]

I'm gonna make the sickest music vid ever with this info. Thank you, Justin!

[@MrAlifarrukh]

Bro you’re the best , soo much information clear and articulate that teaches so easily. Big respect, you really a guru. Can you please make an after affect tutorial on any cool thing from jr ali latest Egypt video?

[@HeyItzAri]

WOW! This SERIOUSLY helped me with my PMV project entry for BronyCon! THANKS FOR YOUR HELP!!!

[@nikj1178]

Yet again you have exactly what i was looking for.

[@aces2364]

2020 is just over and the word MASK triggered me. Cool tutorial!

[@ibrahimayad6732]

you`re amazing ...so simple ...so perfect tutorial

[@TeslaChad]

This did not work for me :( The text I have underneath dissapears after half a second and I'm pulling my hair out trying to find why.

[@samfischer1085]

Excellent Tutorials!! Thanks for doing these.

[@Akojam1]

I like these it's really very good and clear instruction Justin

[@JustinOdisho]

[@bovinicide]

Thanks for this video, really useful, and nice and concise!

[@FeedbackWrench]

Awesome as usual. Are there any good paid plugins that make this even better? I'm alsways looking for tools to add efficiency.

[@questionnaire528]

nice one . but why cant i find the brush tool used here? 0:43 i am using windows 10 premiere pro 14.01 ( if that helps ) thanks in advance

[@stopnot7016]

Justin odisho, you are really great. I always watch your video & must take great lesson from you. But, i request you, always try to make understand to your viewers very smoothly, with that try to give us new video on Adobe After Effect. I am Bangladeshi but i always prefer your videos. Best of luck!

[@squidthicc]

the technology is so amazing!

[@gibsonedu]

When doing this with a video, at one point in your video do you bring it into After Effects? When everything is done except the text? Just export it out of Premiere in the desired resolution and bring into After Effects or is there an easier way to link the two projects?

[@JustinOdisho]

+Thom Gibson I might make a video on how to work between the two. It depends on your desired workflow

[@590Studios]

Awesome tutorial :) One question. After you mask him out could you use the mask tracker for change of camera movement?

[@dirsonbernardino2884]

Great Job Justin

[@yauguai]

This really helps !!! Thanks Justin

[@wickedangel2147]

Thanks!! It helped a lot💕

[@TecknologenAB]

Great tutorial - Thanks! How do I correct when "freeze" makes an error? I try to use Rotobrush to "edit" but it does not work. The "brush" is green, but the marking is not changed...

[@aritafel8993]

Cool tutorial thanks dude!

[@Jay-xp1df]

This was a big help thanks man

[@JustinOdisho]

Glad it helped

[@paulwedel3169]

Hi Justin, great video thanks! I'm using this technique, but I need to export just the title layer with the cutout as the background video is going to the Colour Department. Is there a way to export just the text layer with the roto info cutting out the text? Many thx!

[@paulwedel3169]

Figured it out: select the top layer that you've roto'd, right-click and select "Blending mode->Silhouette Alpha." That cuts the text to the shape of the roto, allowing you to export an alpha of just the text only.

[@johntsunami]

could you do like the legion transition? where the shot starts at side shot of the table then pans down, into a transition of another clip

[@Jobzachariah]

Your videos are awsome Bro

[@TechRatesHD]

Great helpful video!

[@nickrussell2537]

thank you for making this vid it helped me alot!

[@mariovojtas]

hey Justin. first of all nice work with tutorials..thanks. but I got a small problem with this roto brush tool. I got same frame rate as u got but have frame rate mismatch. actually can't do anything with this tool right now. it says set to 35.964 frame rate to match. actually in the end it won't be good looking in different rate would be?

[@OKLAHOMALOVE2]

AMAZING!!!!! Thanks for the share man!

[@loffe8694]

Hey awesome tutorial! It got me into After Effects CC and now I'm having a blast with it but I have this problem where it doesn't let me start drawing for some reason. If you'd help me out on that one that'd be great :)

[@snsanttan]

Thanks very much, Justin,

[@YourTechGuide.]

can this be done on adobe premiere cc as well or just strick for AE?

[@JustinOdisho]

+YourTechGuide you can get the same results but you would have to mask out each frame by frame with the pen tool in premiere

[@p.d.h.9342]

Hi justin, I’m on a Mac and I am a beginner of ae, when I take the rotobrush tool and paint the green portion, when I leave my finger from the mouse my AE crushes? Can you help me? Thanks in advice (Sorry for my English but I’m italian)

[@DeVaunToon]

If I just have a character and a transparent background to make it simple, how would I mask that character if I want to put a shading or lighting type of type of gradient on him or her? I can’t get the mask to snap on the character

[@gdeolivki4374]

Great one buddy! Thank you very much

[@alexandraeid]

can I ask a question , I haven't found a quick answer to This, but am I able to make edits to the colour etc to a video in after-effects like I can in photoshop on photos? such as blurring , burning etc ?

[@Hmmmmgh]

thank you thank you thank you thank you thank you thank you thank you thank you. Everytime i tried to get something in the background i use the mask/pen/whatever tool.

[@JustinOdisho]

Glad it helps!

[@floris7552]

Omg thank you this is exactly What I needed

[@Rosomyat]

so cool.. please make more like this

[@itsjustme4131]

You're a hero!

[@DanyFaddoul]

Great tutorial 👍🏼👍🏼 Any chance you could do a video where you can show us how to work between premiere pro and after effects? Like if im working on a project in premiere pro but i wanna mask the text in after effects and then go back to premiere pro

[@JustinOdisho]

Check my Music video scribble effect tutorial for an example, might cover it more specifically in a future video

[@DanyFaddoul]

Justin Odisho alright thanks a lot 👍🏼👍🏼

[@baloulibilel1667]

good work .one question adobe after cc 2015 or 2017 ? and rotobrush is new version ? thank you

[@amiescribes595]

Hey Justin, love your videos! I was wondering if you have any tips on the After Effects processing time? It takes forever for it to process new information, and if I change something it has to run through it again slowly before it can play normally. Is there something I can do to help it load faster?

[@joshuabrown8480]

you need more RAM

[@ohluna5678]

OMG. I LOVE UR CHANNEL. I NOW HAVE A RESSON TO LIVE❤️❤️❤️❤️

[@JustinOdisho]

YAY ❤️❤️❤️

[@gdiddy3235]

Hello, would there be a way to use roto brush for things that either leave or enter the frame and does many sudden motions? Or do I need to just use the masking tool instead

[@shahalamdar3446]

Great channel :D thanks man

[@ameer-dex]

Thanks dear 💕

[@TrikdOutClan]

Hi there, thank you for the tutorial. When I put my text in between the two layers i can still see it in the masked area but its like the opacity was just turned down in that part.

[@vizyon4020]

Is it possible to have the background in slow motion, and the actual person of focus moving in real time?

[@JustinOdisho]

Check my combine slow motion tutorial for an idea

[@FrancicsoFazbear]

you are the greatest! Thank you so much!!

[@uzairmehmood16]

[@samgeriane8286]

very helpful dude but its hard to rotoscope on moving objects. you got any tips?

[@StratoSoulz]

do you think you can make a video on how you did the guy changing colors at the beginning of the video ??

[@JustinOdisho]

+Zahra did you watch the whole video?

[@StratoSoulz]

Justin Odisho no lol i'm in class my bad i will later my bad but thank you good job on video 👍🏽

Hey, how do you mask only a portion of a video in after effects? Please reply I've been looking for answers for a very long time now

[@ff58856]

It's helpful !! Thank u so much!!

[@TheGoodsChannel]

I'm not seeing the frames of gray in my timeline and noticed you edited the video right there. Is there a step i missed. (3:27) I'm a AE newbie

[@liswil4785]

Hi The Goods, you can check the Freeze behind Render, do not high light the Freeze (let it gray), and you should see the arrows.

[@melvineapen8762]

the reason is mostly because you're using a long video and there is a large number of frames

[@DenJC]

press + on window preview selected. zoom in timeline

[@vincentnghiem9280]

I am doing this but I am also using the wiggle effect which shows both layers out of sync, how do i fix this?

[@noahrichard8767]

How did you get all of the color correction tabs onto after effects?
