Diving into blenny modes and have a good understanding how to blend videos into images and images and
videos and all these blending stories that you see around and are extremely useful.
Please believe me.
So I have two videos.
I have my first video.
That is the cloud.
And I have another video down there that is the sea.
You notice we have a sea a boat in the sea.
What I want to do is to land the top layer into the layer beneath it.
So blending walls from top to bottom meaning I will take this layer.
I will change its blending mode here and then it will merge with the layer beneath it all the other
layers that are beneath it.
Now first of all to get this mod and transparency and rackmount it is this button here is expand or
collapse the transferred control panel.
If you click it you will remove it.
In this case if you click it again it will appear or not this the transferred control here.
If you not this expand or collapse the transfer controls.
These are the three of them the model the transparency and the track mind.
So don't call the mode or the blending mode the transfer modes.
It's just not correct for now.
OK this was very old time when we used to call them transfer modes.
It was in Photoshop in fact.
So now I want to blend the top layer into the bottom layer.
I can come and change the mode I changed it from normal for example to multiply I'm going to just take
you know random ones just to show you click on multiply.
Now notice what happened here.
The video has been blended into the bottom video and there were more.
It will also be blended all the layers above will not be blended.
For example if I take a rectangle here and just a click and draw in rectangle just a very simple rectangle
with certain colors.
You'll notice that the rectangle has not been blended at all.
But if I take the rectangle and put it under the layer that has a blank mod that is clouds.
Now you notice it has been blended so this is what happens.
You blend the top layer or the layer Abarth to everything that is beneath and that is very powerful.
Just think about it and the things you can do.
For example let me show you some things that we will do together.
Here we have another layer.
If I remove the blending normally has a white background fabric back.
The blending here I don't know which what it was.
This one the white background has disappeared.
Now the top layer the one that has the go is not this it's the layer that is a motion graphic layer
not everyday layer.
OK it's not Shabak.
I'm a Martian graphic which is very nice also.
So I'll bet a buck nonmetal or it was multiplayer I think.
Also another example here I can show you let's create a new composition just to see some examples.
I'm going to take the go see how that goes.
OK.
And I have a brain.
OK.
I want to blend the the goes into the reeds.
I'll choose ghost here.
Come to the blending modes and try multiply it didn't work.
Let me try screen.
Now it was.
Of course I knew it but now it works.
The Black has disappeared.
Desperate Inez's are two still images I can take to see.
Put it under let's remove the rain and hit you.
You have a ghost in the sea so it's pretty easy actually you can create a whole animation just using
or whole video mix if you want.
Just using the blending modes you can get to artist one singing here one thing here and blend them when
you have shot you know completely different on a green screen.
Things like this will work very nicely with you.
The next lecture will go through the categories and see the best we can do.
