    I’m trying to take a still image in Boris Grafitti, and shrink it down, then apply a circular sofe mask around it to hide the sharp corners. Can someone give me a wa to do this. I’m editing on Media 100 Hde. Thanks

    Hi Greg,

    This should be no problem.

    Get your layer and Scale down as desired. Then twirl open the track and select the downstream mask (the top one). Add a Spline Primitive then change its shape to a circle.

    Finally add a blur filter to your mask and adjust as desired.

    That should be it.
