WEBVTT 1 00:00:01.889 --> 00:00:02.786 How did you do? 2 00:00:02.786 --> 00:00:05.382 Hopefully you were able to add some cool motion. 3 00:00:05.382 --> 00:00:07.479 I have this sequence that I created 4 00:00:07.479 --> 00:00:09.423 for the preview of this lesson, 5 00:00:09.423 --> 00:00:12.413 showing you some different motion of this clip. 6 00:00:12.413 --> 00:00:14.166 To start out, what we need to do 7 00:00:14.166 --> 00:00:16.687 is take this 4K Interview clip 8 00:00:16.687 --> 00:00:19.985 and drag it into a new sequence. 9 00:00:19.985 --> 00:00:22.265 You might be saying, wait, what are you doing? 10 00:00:22.265 --> 00:00:23.716 This is a 4K sequence. 11 00:00:23.716 --> 00:00:25.739 We need to be able to zoom in on this clip, 12 00:00:25.739 --> 00:00:28.302 and if we do, we're going to lose quality. 13 00:00:28.302 --> 00:00:29.135 That is true. 14 00:00:29.135 --> 00:00:30.824 So we have to change the sequence settings 15 00:00:30.824 --> 00:00:32.561 for this clip first, and maybe 16 00:00:32.561 --> 00:00:34.627 this is something you forgot to do. 17 00:00:34.627 --> 00:00:37.653 Go up to Sequence, Sequence Settings, 18 00:00:37.653 --> 00:00:40.660 and then, under Editing Mode, change it to Custom, 19 00:00:40.660 --> 00:00:45.488 so that we can change the frame size to 1920 by 1080. 20 00:00:45.488 --> 00:00:47.609 This is still HD. 21 00:00:47.609 --> 00:00:49.632 And then say OK. 22 00:00:49.632 --> 00:00:50.646 Just say OK. 23 00:00:50.646 --> 00:00:53.531 It's going to say that the clip that we added, 24 00:00:53.531 --> 00:00:55.477 it's too big for this sequence, 25 00:00:55.477 --> 00:00:56.790 or it's not the right settings. 26 00:00:56.790 --> 00:00:57.738 That's totally fine. 27 00:00:57.738 --> 00:00:59.898 And you can see now that I said OK, 28 00:00:59.898 --> 00:01:04.076 our sequence is actually smaller than the footage. 29 00:01:04.076 --> 00:01:06.702 This is great, because now, I can take this clip, 30 00:01:06.702 --> 00:01:11.269 go to the motion, and zoom out, or move it around. 31 00:01:11.269 --> 00:01:12.695 So that's what I'm going to do. 32 00:01:12.695 --> 00:01:15.176 There's two types of motion I want you to consider 33 00:01:15.176 --> 00:01:17.392 adding to your clips to make them more dynamic. 34 00:01:17.392 --> 00:01:20.971 One is a zoom, and one is just sort of a pan across. 35 00:01:20.971 --> 00:01:24.870 And like I mentioned in the last little preview lesson, 36 00:01:24.870 --> 00:01:27.032 this is something you can do while you're filming, 37 00:01:27.032 --> 00:01:29.426 if you have a dolly or a slider 38 00:01:29.426 --> 00:01:32.034 or even a camera with a tripod 39 00:01:32.034 --> 00:01:34.629 you can move around the frame. 40 00:01:34.629 --> 00:01:36.333 But when you are shooting an interview 41 00:01:36.333 --> 00:01:39.172 and you don't wanna mess up the shot, 42 00:01:39.172 --> 00:01:41.288 it's hard to do that if you only have one camera. 43 00:01:41.288 --> 00:01:43.350 So, shooting with two cameras is an option. 44 00:01:43.350 --> 00:01:45.163 You can have one camera moving around, 45 00:01:45.163 --> 00:01:47.826 and the other just stable, or shooting 46 00:01:47.826 --> 00:01:51.348 with one camera in a higher resolution, if that's possible, 47 00:01:51.348 --> 00:01:55.072 shooting in 4K or 2K to get some footage 48 00:01:55.072 --> 00:01:58.259 where you can punch in and move around later on. 49 00:01:58.259 --> 00:02:01.007 So with this clip, I'm just going to zoom in, 50 00:02:01.007 --> 00:02:03.493 start the frame around 57. 51 00:02:03.493 --> 00:02:06.287 And I can put my timeline indicator really anywhere, 52 00:02:06.287 --> 00:02:09.731 and just set a key frame for scale and position. 53 00:02:09.731 --> 00:02:11.461 And then, I'm going to drag those key frames 54 00:02:11.461 --> 00:02:14.298 all the way to the left, and then I'm going to 55 00:02:14.298 --> 00:02:17.048 zoom in even more, and drag down, 56 00:02:18.648 --> 00:02:21.216 and to the right, just a little bit. 57 00:02:21.216 --> 00:02:23.244 So, moving to the right, and move 58 00:02:23.244 --> 00:02:26.009 these key frames to the very end. 59 00:02:26.009 --> 00:02:28.693 Now, I wanna play through this to make sure 60 00:02:28.693 --> 00:02:31.298 that it looks good and it's not too fast, 61 00:02:31.298 --> 00:02:34.962 because you might have motion that's a little bit too fast. 62 00:02:34.962 --> 00:02:37.884 And I actually think this is a little bit too fast. 63 00:02:37.884 --> 00:02:40.458 So I'm just going to move these key frames back, 64 00:02:40.458 --> 00:02:43.625 and change it to maybe 68, and move it 65 00:02:45.020 --> 00:02:48.149 just back to the right and back up just a little bit. 66 00:02:48.149 --> 00:02:50.761 And move these key frames to the right again. 67 00:02:50.761 --> 00:02:53.678 Now, the percentage changed from 57 68 00:02:54.730 --> 00:02:57.147 to 68, is less than 57 to 72, 69 00:02:59.361 --> 00:03:02.979 meaning this motion is slower and more subtle. 70 00:03:02.979 --> 00:03:04.752 You can still notice this motion. 71 00:03:04.752 --> 00:03:06.512 And maybe this is a little bit too much. 72 00:03:06.512 --> 00:03:08.575 But I actually kind of like it. 73 00:03:08.575 --> 00:03:10.844 So now I'm going to show you how to add the pan. 74 00:03:10.844 --> 00:03:12.830 So I'm going to take this video clip again, 75 00:03:12.830 --> 00:03:15.207 drag it onto this sequence. 76 00:03:15.207 --> 00:03:17.244 You can see it's already punched in. 77 00:03:17.244 --> 00:03:20.360 And I don't wanna go any more than 100 on scale. 78 00:03:20.360 --> 00:03:24.527 That will mean a decrease in quality when I export it. 79 00:03:26.059 --> 00:03:28.955 And so if I go up to 110%, that's basically 80 00:03:28.955 --> 00:03:31.850 digitally zooming in on this footage 81 00:03:31.850 --> 00:03:34.586 past the point of its full quality. 82 00:03:34.586 --> 00:03:36.785 So I'll just set it at 75. 83 00:03:36.785 --> 00:03:39.234 And I can make it move either way, 84 00:03:39.234 --> 00:03:43.185 but I think going from left to right might look good, 85 00:03:43.185 --> 00:03:46.479 so I'm going to move Anthony over to the right a bit, 86 00:03:46.479 --> 00:03:50.008 set a key frame for position, drag that to the beginning, 87 00:03:50.008 --> 00:03:53.340 and then just drag to the right, just a bit, 88 00:03:53.340 --> 00:03:56.219 and drag this key frame all the way to the right. 89 00:03:56.219 --> 00:04:00.302 So now, if I play through this, pretty darn good. 90 00:04:02.533 --> 00:04:05.111 Pretty subtle, but I like that. 91 00:04:05.111 --> 00:04:07.422 Now, I wanna show you something. 92 00:04:07.422 --> 00:04:09.439 This is a cool trick, actually. 93 00:04:09.439 --> 00:04:13.457 So, say I added that position animation, 94 00:04:13.457 --> 00:04:15.960 but I think, oh, actually, I think his head 95 00:04:15.960 --> 00:04:17.989 is a little bit too close to the top. 96 00:04:17.989 --> 00:04:19.835 I want a little bit more headroom. 97 00:04:19.835 --> 00:04:23.738 Well, I can't just go in here and drag him down like this, 98 00:04:23.738 --> 00:04:27.558 because that's setting a new key frame for position. 99 00:04:27.558 --> 00:04:31.555 And it's actually making the motion of the video clip 100 00:04:31.555 --> 00:04:35.543 go to the left, and then down, and then continue. 101 00:04:35.543 --> 00:04:38.788 What I can do, I'm just going to delete that, 102 00:04:38.788 --> 00:04:41.559 what I can do is change the anchor point. 103 00:04:41.559 --> 00:04:44.468 The anchor point is what I call the saving grace 104 00:04:44.468 --> 00:04:48.635 of affecting, or fixing, position, if I have key frames. 105 00:04:49.808 --> 00:04:51.615 I can actually take the anchor point 106 00:04:51.615 --> 00:04:53.543 and move this clip around. 107 00:04:53.543 --> 00:04:56.549 Now, the anchor point, if you're familiar with Photoshop 108 00:04:56.549 --> 00:05:00.003 or Adobe After Effects, might make a little bit more sense. 109 00:05:00.003 --> 00:05:03.785 It's basically where this clip is anchored to. 110 00:05:03.785 --> 00:05:05.854 Originally, it's anchored in the middle, 111 00:05:05.854 --> 00:05:09.052 but by moving this anchor point setting around, 112 00:05:09.052 --> 00:05:13.365 I can move the anchor point basically elsewhere. 113 00:05:13.365 --> 00:05:14.860 That's really all you need to know. 114 00:05:14.860 --> 00:05:18.261 But what this can do now is I can move it up or down, 115 00:05:18.261 --> 00:05:22.428 and it actually keeps the motion of the previous animation, 116 00:05:23.339 --> 00:05:26.181 but this whole clip is nudged down now. 117 00:05:26.181 --> 00:05:28.716 So I have a little bit more headroom. 118 00:05:28.716 --> 00:05:31.799 Or, say I wanna move it up even more. 119 00:05:32.785 --> 00:05:35.220 Just to show you what happens, 120 00:05:35.220 --> 00:05:38.066 it moves the whole clip up, but keeps the motion 121 00:05:38.066 --> 00:05:40.120 the left to right motion that we had before. 122 00:05:40.120 --> 00:05:43.145 So that's just a quick tip if you get stuck 123 00:05:43.145 --> 00:05:45.436 so that you don't have to actually go back 124 00:05:45.436 --> 00:05:48.244 and change both of these key frames for the position, 125 00:05:48.244 --> 00:05:50.204 because sometimes that happens where 126 00:05:50.204 --> 00:05:51.546 you make a bunch of key frames, 127 00:05:51.546 --> 00:05:54.594 and you do go back and change all of these. 128 00:05:54.594 --> 00:05:57.328 Well, you can actually just use the anchor point to do that. 129 00:05:57.328 --> 00:06:01.390 So, that's how you add motion to a video clip 130 00:06:01.390 --> 00:06:03.553 to make it a little bit more dynamic, 131 00:06:03.553 --> 00:06:07.544 especially for shorter promotional trailer type pieces. 132 00:06:07.544 --> 00:06:10.979 It's kind of a cool way to make your video look even better. 133 00:06:10.979 --> 00:06:14.398 Thanks for watching, and we'll see you in another lesson.
