Cut out images on Premiere Pro

Okay well I was just wondering how they usually cut out images and put them on videos with premiere pro? I see some people doing videos that allow this. Below I have a attached a symbol "ten" I want to insert that into a video, but when I insert it you still see the white around it. Any specific program I have to use to cut out the white and put it onto a video?

Dino,
Unfortunately, the links you provided do not work on my browser, IE7, and the images do not disply.
Let me take a guess at what you wish to do. You want a graphic "10" with the video showing though it. Is that even close? If it is, you want the Track Matte Keying Effect. This will require that you have your background Video on Video Track 1 (VT1), your "inset footage" on VT2, your Track Matte Keying "matte" on VT3, and then add the Track Matte Keying Effect to your video on VT2, linking to the matte on VT3. You have a few settings, like Luma/Alpha and Invert. You may need to experiment with each of these, to get your desired effect.
Good luck,
Hunt
PS Help and the manual have much more information on Track Matte Keying, as does this tutorial on another use for it. Different application, but the principle is the exact same.

  • How can I create a stop animation video with single images in Premiere Pro?

    Let me start off by saying I am 100% new to pretty much all Adobe software as of about 3 weeks ago. I have been doing a lot of googling these past few weeks. With that said, I will do my best to explain my question.
    I am making a stop motion animated video.  I am not using several photos to create the look, but rather single photoshopped images that I have deleted the backgrounds out of. Basically the video is single charms "crawling" or flying in individually from off screen into a circle, there is a story explaining what each charm means. I started in After Effects, but had issues with audio... am I right in my understanding that you cannot preview the audio unless you use the preview feature? So my solution was playing a guessing game, rendering/exporting, importing it to Premiere Pro, taking notes and then heading back to After Effects to try to re-do the timing. Obviously this was not working too well.
    Then after doing more googling and clicking around I figured out you could layer images in Premier Pro and make them move just as you would in After Effects, which is great! There are two things hanging me up...
    1. I used the wiggle effect in After Effects. For the life of me I cannot find or figure out an effect or preset similar to this in Premiere Pro. Is there such a thing? Or do I have to create rotation keyframes? (I think I'm using keyframes correctly).
    2. Making the images stop-motiony and not smooth.
    My question is... any suggestions on how to re-create the wiggle effect easily in Premiere Pro? Or is there away to create the effect in After Effects and then import the image into Premiere Pro and still be able to change the position and timing?
    Please help! My deadline is tomorrow by the end of the work day!
    Please forgive me if these are silly questions... go easy on me, I'm soo new! Thanks in advance!

    Thanks so much for the reply!
    I read that... but it doesn't preview the whole thing? It only previews a few seconds and then loops. I tried to figure out how to change the preview settings, but I can't seem to get it to work.

  • Final Cut Studio Vs Adobe Premiere Pro CS5.

    What are the best reasons for purchasing Final Cut Studio over Adobe Premiere Pro CS5?
    Thanks!

    Hi friends i'ven reading your coments and my conclusions are CS5 is faster and has the same features and quality than FCP, i like to ask to Studio X if you know more FCP and you are a pro why? with facts because if i have to buy or say to a friend or client go and use one or another with real facts.
    Example FCP has better color calibration, better final quality, more features or so.
    Another curious thing is that jhon 1 in 2 said is better AVCHD compatibility or handle these are to consistent points that i can undertand as a normal person.
    I can understand a  point if you can say me why FCP is better with examples because i know much of hardware but a little of this software, i can give a big point to a software tha can use mi machine at full capacity because if i spend 10K$ in a computer i'd like a blazing fast one, if not is better to spend only 2.5K$ and wait the same amount of time for the same results.
    Sorry for my english i'm not from USA so my vocabulary is short.

  • I dragged a cut out image from one photoshop document into another and now it is blurry. What to do?

    I dragged a cut out image from one photoshop document into another and now it is blurry. What can I do to prevent this?

    What is the resolution of the image that you "dragged"? The resolution is the number in pixels per inch (ppi). If you dragged a significantly lower resolution file into a higher resolution file, it could result in a blurry image.
    see below:
    For further reading of Key Concepts:
    http://www.adobe.com/designcenter-archive/keyconcepts/articles/concept_resolution.html
    You can determine the image size by choosing Image > Image Size
    below you can see the pixel dimensions of my example image.

  • Importing Cut Out Images from Photoshop w/out White Background?

    Hello Everyone,
    I am brand new to Illustrator. I have been a Photoshop user all these years. I am trying to import a photo to Illustrator CS5 that I cutout using this method:
    http://thedesigned.com/2009/08/21/how-to-cut-out-images-like-a-professional-in-photoshop/
    Unfortunately it superimposes itself into Illustrator with a white background when I thought it would be transparent surrounding the image. I opened the file in Illustrator as a PSD. But I tried .jpg as well. Anyone know how to work around this?
    Thanks!
    Randall

    Well from the looks of the tutorial which leaves a lot of info out you ended up flattening the image so that the background is now white but that is hard to tell from the tutorial.
    If your background is white you should rmove it in in photoshop and save the image as a psd with no background layer only a transparent layer of the subject.
    Then place that .psd in Illustrator and your background will be transparent.
    I suggest placing it rather than opeining it in AI.
    Like such: (even my signature is a psd on a tansparent layer.)

  • 'cut-out' images from Photoshop import into FCE with unwanted background

    I want to import some custom 'cut-out' images from Photoshop, but they come into FCE with a rectangular background around them. Is there a way to import just the irregular 'cut-out' image?
    Bob

    Make sure the images are RGB 8-bit and in a format that carries an alpha channel or Photoshop transparency like Photoshop, TIFF, PNG, even PICT.

  • Why won't my Prelude Rough Cut material appear in Premiere Pro?

    I've done everything accordingly.  I have my Rough Cut ready, but everytime I go to send it to Premiere Pro, it fails to do so.
    What am I missing here?  Is it my directory location that's the problem?  I have no idea as to why it won't do as I say.

    I'll get the image once I can obtain it - it's not appearing atm.
    I have CS6 for both programs.
    Yes, nothing happens when it's empty.  There is a failure with the connection between the softwares.  I also had this problem with trying to transfer files from Premiere to Speedgrade a while back.  I never did find out the problem.
    Is there a central hub or connecting device that provides this operation, because I have a feeling that that is what's stopping it from operating correctly.

  • Can't import Final Cut XML file into Premiere Pro CS4 MAC

    Hello,  I'm traying to import FCP Studio 2 XML file into Adobe Premiere Pro CS4for the purpose of then color correcting the project in Adobe After Effects.
    I followed all the rules of exporting XML files from my Final Cut Studio 2 timeline, then closed FCP, opened Adobe Premiere CS4 and when I go to Import option XML file is greyed out.  I can't select the XML file...
    Could  someone tell me what I'm doing wrong?  Thank you so much

    I'll just say that the high end AE users list I frequent suggests that the more common workflow is to bring AE to FCP for color correction.  Isn't that one of FCP's strengths?
    Also, to the extent that you want to process an FCP project in AE, look for the best way to bring it directly, not through Premiere.  Ask in the AE forum what opinions people have.  Mac and PC types use AE, but my impression is that only a small proportion of those users use Premiere.

  • Final cut express versus Adobe Premiere Pro 1.5

    Hi
    Resently I bought a Mac Pro and Final cut express.
    In the past I used Premiere Pro 1.5. When my project was finisched i wrote it back to tape as a Microsoft DV avi file. Is it possible to create a Microsoft DV avi file in Final Cut Express ?
    I'll aske this because this tape is transported to the studio and imported into Adobe Premiere 6.0.
    thanks in advance
    Tonnie
    Mac Pro Mac OS X (10.4.9)
      Mac OS X (10.4.9)  

    Once it's on tape it's back in DV format and is no longer an AVI or .mov or any other computer format. If the material is put back on tape it can be captured from the camera or deck into Premiere in whatever format that uses.

  • Cutting out images in indesign, clipping path problems

    Hi,
    I have been putting images of my drawings from photoshop onto indesign for my portfolio,  after looking around the only way I can seem to find to cut them out is using clipping path/detect edges.
    The problem I have is because they are scanned sketches this method produces really inacurate and shoddy results and no matter how much I play around with the threshold and tollerance this means I still have to mess around with the pen and arrow tool for ages on each image.
    Is there a quicker solution to cutting them out like the magic wand or lasoo tool on indesign?
    It has taken days now in in design , I have all the images already cut out from their original pages on photoshop but the white box always comes around again when I drag or place the images in indesign.
    I have been shorcutting some pages and doing layout on photoshop and placing the image behind which works fine sometimes but is really inconviiant when I want to move the layout around text ot anything...... i have attatched some pictures to show you what I mean.
    Thanks for your help in advance
    Leo

    Well Thats 2 days of my life Ill never get back!
    Thankyou very much! cant belive I was that stupid

  • Two Different Imported TIFFs Show The Same Image in Premiere Pro

    I noticed sometime ago that some imported TIFFs with alpha channel are not showing the correct image. Recently I upgraded to Premiere Pro CC (for PC) to see if such issue was solved, however it is not.
    Basically just importing the TIFFs into the project panel results in Premiere showing the same text even though the actual TIFF files contain different text. This is quite bizarre. No other software (including FinalCut Pro) displays such odd behavior.
    I have uploaded the two TIFFs that replicate this issue consinstently here: https://drive.google.com/folderview?id=0B2IT1EAcyLlBZXRlMDkxNzY3d1U&usp=sharing
    To replicate, just create an new empty project and import these two TIFF files. You will notice that both show the same text within Premiere while outside they indeed show the different data.
    Anybody has any clues on why this is happening and on how to solve it?
    Thanks in advance for any help and clues.
    Valerio

    Thanks for your reply.
    At this moment we can't export PNGs with an Alpha channel so we are stuck with TIFFs.
    It is a bizarre issue though.
    Here is a Dropbox link for the images, seems Google Drive download links are buried deep:

  • Blurred images in Premiere pro?

    I'm using Premiere Pro CS6 and when I have imported images they go blurry when I play the video. Also I have made an intro in After effects and imported that and that also turns slightly blurry when it is imported into Premiere. Do you have any ideas on how to fix this? Thanks.

  • Photography - cutting out images into new photo

    Can anyone suggest an easy app to use to cut a images out of 1 photo and put it into another photo. I have an iPad and MacBook . Jane

    Thank you wade I will have a go!
    UPDATE: yes that's good. I created a "sunray" using a line which I transformed to have as many lines as the mesh I used (actualy it had half the number plus 1 for the lower half of the sunray, then repeated the operation fo an identical line on top of the first but wit the ange of transformation = to 360 - the angle of the first line's transformation) and made the line long enough to get the perspective right, this I then used as a guide to move the mesh lines. The only thing I would have liked is to a) lock the verticalsin the mesh so I didn't move them inadvertently and b) if I could have moved the beginning and end point of a mesh horizontal and said now redrawn the line between these two points it would have been quicker. (I was using illustrator)

  • Help with importing images in Premiere Pro CS5.5

    Hi all... I'm working on a widescreen ntsc project that mixes video footage with power point slides, which have been exported to BMP, JPEG, PNG and TIFF... when I look at the images in an external image viewer, they look great... when I import them and drag them in the timeline in Premiere Pro, they look terrible.  The text looks bad.
    Since the dimensions of the power point slides are 960x720, I have used the scaler in Premier, and I've also resized them in an external graphics program to about 720x480, but to no avail.
    The vexing thing is, I gave a sample full sized slide and footage to a colleague, and he just dragged the slide into the timeline, resized it to the right size and the text is crystal clear.
    Any ideas??
    Thanks,
    Matt

    check your paused and/or playback resolution settings...
    I've found TIFF to be the cleanest output from PPT for inclusion in video, and I've also found that the scale to frame size command usually works pretty well within Premiere. However, Photoshop's scaler uses much better algorithms and will give you a much better result. You can do a batch process on all your files and automatically create smaller versions of them if you'd like. Alternatively, you can open PPT and customize the size of your PPT slide, which should scale everything to fit your new size. Then you'll have native 720x480 TIFFs on export from PPT.
