Masking a video
Aug 19th, 2008, 9:59am
 
Hi,

I wondered if it might be possible, if you have a loaded Movie-clip (e.g. .mov) which is covered by a colored rectangle, to uncover parts of the Clip with e.g. moving the Mouse over the surface?

Something like a mask which covers the whole clip exept some area where the mouse moves?

Cheers!

i attached a  image, maybe then it will be more clear?

its about having a blured video (with fliter(blur,5))

then a certain area shoud be de-covered by the normal images if you roll over:

Masking a video works like masking an image. At each frame, you get a picture from your video recorder, and you apply a mask. That's all.

Search the forum, I've seen many thread about masking techniques.
