[Ror0noaZoRo]

does this make a pro ?

[DrakeEnt]

@Ror0noaZoRo Yes! only noobs use pentool > : D

[Ror0noaZoRo]

@DrakeEnt sometimes its better to do it with the pentool

but in the clip you showed ofc its not the way to do it :P

[DrakeEnt]

@Ror0noaZoRo ye i'm just kidding man seems u din't get the irony xD! for this sort of clip using pentool either chroma key it's an abomination. When with 2 cliks u can make it perfectly trasnparent in PS xD That\s what i meant. and ofc if u watch almost in the end when i'm writing i say i use multiple like pen tool, rotobrush, magic wand, etc. even sometimes masking with alpha mate is usefull.

[OverFlowKyuubi]

its all white why dont u just use chroma key on the white?? xD

[tehninjarox]

@OverFlowKyuubi

It would key out the white in their clothes and eyes too, and it would most likely key out some of their skin even if you adjusted the sensitivity of the upper and lower ranges.

[DrakeEnt]

@OverFlowKyuubi Just as tehninjarox said ;P

[EMPReborn]

the only thing i took away from this is

BAKA!~ BAKA!~ BAKA!~ BAKA!~ BAKA!~ BAKA!~

[DrakeEnt]

@EMPReborn THAT"S THE POINT! > :D BAKA!~ xD

[Ectasied]

[mYRpCYuKiix3]

now I can mask like a pro O: !

[DrakeEnt]

@mYRpCYuKiix3 xD Indeed

[mYRpCYuKiix3]

@DrakeEnt :D

[DaRyniek]

wow, it will be usefull ! thanks bro ! <3

[DaRyniek]

@DaRyniek tho i still like chroma keyer more, i'm such an lazy ass :)

[DrakeEnt]

@DaRyniek xDD! i dislike it a lot x)

[mulraf]

too bad that i got no sv and my photoshop skills suck ^^

but i guess if i had a clip like that then i'd just chroma key the background color, and then mask away the titles?, looks easier too me ^^

and @harder clips i guess i have to use the pen tool <.<

[DrakeEnt]

@mulraf If u chroma key all the whites get's afected and if u try to mask/tile like u said, the parts u wan't to be unafected by the chroma key u're still using pen tool haha xD!

This is the easiest way for solid colors. IT dosen't only work with white. with anything just change the tolerance of the magic eraser ; P

[mulraf]

@DrakeEnt hm.. yeah i guess you are right, since i need like 10 hours to mask 5 seconds xD (especially hardcore at 1920x1080 at 60 fps xDDD)

but i haven't worked with the rotobrush tool either, since the clips i have to mask always have extremely complicated colours ^^, but i guess it would work fine in a simple clip like that, ain't it? :o

[DrakeEnt]

@mulraf the rotobrush ye.. well, goodluck if u try with 1980 x 1080 rotobrush saves constantly info in the cache it's a pain to get previews of it. and if u rotobruhs in full resolution u can only watch the mask properly in full resolution. :S that's why i recommend using all the tools toguether, each one is better for certain things. This was just trolling the pen tool users xD cause i mean pen tool or Chroma key for a solid color or multiple solid colors.. it's kinda strange xD

[mulraf]

@DrakeEnt yeah, would be a pain in the butt xD

and i also don't really need sv, i could just render it out as a photoshop sequence in ae - right?

now i just need to get how to do all the masking in photoshop ... as i said i'm a noob with it, i even made the bg for my youtube channel and my ava in ae :O and then video was ....... kinda fast? xD

and sry for the spamming :D, i always ask you about all my questions since you are the only one who answers (and knows how to solve 'em e_e)

[Woodpecker300]

only this easy whit u got a bg like that xD

[trerb4]

Yep I know this technique :P thanks anyway <3

[TheSunLight9]

OMG, once again thank chu o3o *she fells stupid for using pen tool until today

[DrakeEnt]

@TheSunLight9 xD! No u din't understand beatiful.! i use pen tool too, but just when u have a solid color u can just use the magic eraser it's way easier! :D actually u should be using all of the tools that every program provides . My mostly used when masking is "Pen tool, Magic Eraser, Magic Wand, Rotobrush," between AE and PS ^^

[TheSunLight9]

@DrakeEnt Np, anyway i used pen tool for solid color too 8'DD Or sony vegas, it's fucking easy o3o Oh, can i ask u another stupid question? Don't kill me, but i'm very noob with AE *depressed

[DrakeEnt]

@TheSunLight9 Sure ask anything! ^^

[TheSunLight9]

@DrakeEnt I resolved by myself, but thank u anyway *3* i didn't know there is the waveform for the sound, kyaa many thanks finally i have solved my problem with the timing too :D

[DrakeEnt]

@TheSunLight9 btw! thnx for the comment! *o*
