Select the anchor creation tool on the left side of the Event Pan/Crop window and click in the workspace to create a mask. Select the Mask check box in the keyframe controller. This creates a copy of the video where we can apply the blurring effect.Ĭreate a mask to limit the blurring effect:Ĭlick the Event Pan/Crop button on the upper event to display the Event Pan/Crop dialog. Right-click the track that contains the video you want to blur and choose Duplicate Track from the shortcut menu.
The effect is simple to recreate using and Bézier masking. You’ve seen the effect on daytime talk shows and police dramas (and if you’re lucky, you weren’t the one being blurred). Learning how to mask and track in Premiere has value generally so if you can't use it for your needs now the experience of diving in and trying will only make you better.Blurring a Face (or Any Portion of a Video) If it's a paid job, proceed with caution until you know what you're getting into. but I feel someone learning can benefit from the experience if they're just playing around. Even in AE, I wouldn't consider this an easy task. If either are moving, I'm gathering Premiere is largely going to be crude here. and even if you're lucky and everything is still, it can be tough. my bet is you'll only get crude results in Premiere unless the face you are replacing it with is still along with the camera. It depends on the scene and what/how you will replace things. Both cases can be complex and difficult though, even for non-face simple objects. it's usually easy with stationary objects (despite camera movement) so long as you have good replacement content. I've removed objects from rooms with Premiere and all that. By common standards, that's an easy chore.
then I needed to replace it with a clean part of the table. technically the crumb was moving given the zoom so I needed to track the crumb.
the other day I removed a bread crumb from a shot that zoomed into a coffee cup on a table. Removing objects can be trickier but for simple things (not faces) Premiere works rather well quite often. and how to replace and block out objects.īlocking out is usually easier because a visible block like a blur usually doesn't have to be hidden from the viewer. find tutorials for masking effects in Premiere and tracking those masks. If this is a learning experience and you just want to see what Premiere can do. it's the place most folks would direct you for this. I use Premiere to replace/block simple things quite a bit. If you're just playing around with the tools, trying to do this in Premiere can be good way to learn its masking and tracking tools, see the limitations, appreciate what's good, what's not right for this, etc.
but beyond that, there's so much to take into account especially if there's a lot of movement, angled movement, lighting differences between replacement and replaceee content and all that. If you're going for a result that needs to express intent without elegance, such as an obvious result that may look funny for a comedic piece, as one example, you might be able to produce a crude face replacement in Premiere. Per what Neil mentioned this can be an advanced thing and I wouldn't consider Premiere the best place to do this elegantly.
