    I used the 4-point or 8-point garbage mattes in the effects tab to select what I wanted to blur, then added the blur filter.

    Drop the garbage matte on the clip. Select the area, using key points if the faces are moving in the frame. Then drop the blur filter onto the clip, and select the amount and type of blur you need.

    Joe’s Filters is the easiest way to do this.

    Have a wonderful day.

    I use Matte>Mask Shape along with the free TooMuchTooSoon Mosaic filter.

    If you really want the easiest way, use BCC 3 or BCC4’s Witness Protection filter. It even motion tracks the object. Doesn’t get any easier than that.

    Something I didn’t know I had in BCC, nice to know!

    Have a wonderful day.
