Activity Forums Adobe Premiere Pro Cropping

  • Posted by John Johnson on August 12, 2018 at 11:05 am

    Hello everyone, i am fairly new to the world of video editing so i hope i’ll be able to learn a thing or two here.

    The thing i’m wondering right now is: How do you do crop irregular shapes with great accuracy? The crop option in Premiere Pro doesn’t seem to have been made for that kind of cropping ( or has it? ) so maybe there’s another way or addition to do the job professionally.

    If you don’t understand what i mean here is an example i found on the internet https://img-9gag-fun.9cache.com/photo/am7ZNZV_460svvp9.webm
    I think this video was mostly done in After Effects but i’m only wondering about the cropping part. Thanks in advance.

    If you select the clip and go to the effects controls, you can draw a matte in the opacity section using the pen tool.
