Through the Mouth-Mask Zoom Transition in Premiere Pro
Aug 27, 2018 — In this Adobe Premiere Pro CC 2018 Tutorial, I will demonstrate how to create a zoom through mouth mask transition effect as inspired by the BTS Idol music video and instagram / snapchat face filters. —Justin Odisho
If you have any irrational fear of the insides of peoples' mouths, DO NOT WATCH! You actually won't see the inside of Justin Odisho's mouth (sorry to disappoint any Odisho super-fans) thanks to the power of masking. The really cool part of this tutorial is Justin creates the mask using the Paint Bucket effect in Premiere Pro. Technically, this creates a matte, but since you can stencil alpha directly in the Paint Bucket effect, it feels like a mask. Regardless, there are lots of potential uses for this technique! Not just for zooming into someone's oral cavity.
