Learn the magic of video masking and create pro-level effects in your videos!
Picture this: You're scrolling through social media and come across a video with transitions and effects that leave you wondering "How on earth did they pull that off?!"
Well, wonder no more! Keenan Lam is a cinematographer and editor with over 100k followers on IG who frequently gets that question. He uses video masking—a video editing technique that allows you to hide specific areas of a video, blend images together, or add other video effects—to add a creative twist to his personal videos and collaborations with top brands like Xbox, Panasonic, and Porsche.
In his first-ever online class, Keenan will reveal the many possibilities of video masking and teach you how to use masking to blur out objects, build titles and create scroll-stopping special effects.Â
With Keenan by your side, you'll:
- Plan and shoot a special effects-ready video
- Practice creating effective masksÂ
- Dive into more advanced masking techniques, like masking asymmetrical and curved shapes
- Make the best use of sound design by adding effects and trending social media sounds
- Take your project over the top with pro color grading
Plus, you can download all of the videos Keenan creates in this class, as well as his presets in Adobe Premiere Pro, so you can practice your masking skills without even touching a camera!
By the end of this class, you'll have a new toolkit to up your post production game, impress potential clients, and rack up those sweet, sweet views.Â
This class is designed for students with a basic understanding of post production who are looking to advance their skills. The only things you’ll need are a device that shoots video like a smartphone or camera and a computer with an editing program. Keenan works in Adobe Premiere Pro, but whatever editing program you’re comfortable with will do the trick.
