  • Make white area of fram transparant / Reduced opacity

    Posted by Jon Huseby on May 7, 2013 at 8:41 pm

    I´m editing a music video in premiere pro cs6. I´m working on very high contrast images as you can see in the attached image. What I´ve been trying to get my head around is how to make the white are (the artist) have a lower opacity and show an image coming tru from VIDEO 1 underneath. I´d like the black area to remain black.

    I would also do this in AE if there is a way…Any ideas anyone?

    Attached image?

    Luma, Color, or Chroma Keying could work to mask off the desired areas.

    – Insert the background video on Track 1

    – If you want a semi-transparent layer of the high-contrast clip, insert it on Track 2 and set Opacity as desired (35% in the sample shown below)

    – Insert the high-contrast clip above the other clip(s) and add the Luma Key effect; adjust Threshold and Cutoff accordingly
