  • Round shaped video in Premiere Pro CC

    Hello All,

    I want to make my video round shaped. I tried googling & I found some answers but they are not sufficient for me.

    To do this task, I select Generate > Circle & apply to the clip. Then, I adjust its radius & select blending mode to Stencil Alpha. This creats round mask on the clip but it doesn’t make my video round shaped (because of round shaped mask I have to lose border of video). I want my video to be round shaped. Is there anyway to do so?

    Thanks & Regards,

    Vipati

    The best available alternative is a round image in a square frame. Use a codec that supports alpha channel to make the background transparent.

    How do you plan to use the video? There may be another way to achieve the desired result.

    Leslie Thornton makes beautiful round images, I had thought directly in a DSLR. I’ll ask her when I see her. I think you’d have to shoot with a round guide on a ground glass or a round matte in order to have the frame you want without “losing” image on the edges. Lenses make round images, but all sensors in film or video are square.
