On Artbeats.com: Blending Ideas

Chris and Trish Meyer | 12/08

Extending standard vignette techniques to introduce new treatments to your footage.

In our previous article on vignettes on Artbeats.com, we discussed ways to mask or matte a black layer to create a falloff in brightness across a piece of underlying footage. The same basic techniques used to create that matte may also be used to treat footage in more creative ways, including the use of blending modes, adjustments layers, effects, and compositing a clip over a different background shot. Ideas are presented using both Adobe After Effects and Apple Motion.
