How do they do it?
Hey guys,
Was wondering how this effect was achieved.

That it seems to be one continuous take but obviously is not since it’s the same skater in each shot. I assume this can be achieved in after effects. I suppose the multiple-layers-masks effects aspect but it also seems to be editing/camera pans.
Thanks ten million,

If you look closely, you can just make out where the cuts are. I think most of the work here is in the shooting and editing, not post FX.
Follow the first skater with the camera, stop, pan to where the next shot will begin. Stay in that spot. Start shooting again when the skater is ready. Redo the pan from the prior shot and start following the skater. Stop, pan, tilt, whatever you plan to do. Start again.
The overlapping panning, tilting, etc. will make matching up the shots easier. Some quick fades or slight time-remaps can help sell the transitions if they are too abrupt.
That’s my guess.
The last shot is 3 separate shots masked together. Notice, the camera doesn’t move.

Thanks Jason!

If you think that is cool-rent the movie “Rope” by Alfred Hitchcock
You’ll think that the entire MOVIE is shot in one take!It’s an old trick-pan to something that you can use as a transistion for the beginning and end of the shot i.e. asphalt.
It’s done very well with the video.
