Welcome back with me on Tutorial of Sony Vegas Pro.
And now we will make something like this...
It's like a 3D effect, isn't it?
The real name of this effect is : Parallax effect
Theres a background and foreground
that moving at one time in different way
So it make an 3D illusion
And let's started
First of all, prepare the photos
I have sample photos here
This is my friend on the picture, accidentally...
To making Parallax effect make sure your photo have a background like the trees
And foreground for the main object
And make sure the background is not too striking like trees, skies, grass etc
To make the effect more realistic
And now you can open Photoshop
We will separate between object and the background
This guy for the object
We must select it first use a polygonal lasso tool
To make it detail selected
Now I will select it
Now I have a selection here and next we will copied the selection one
You can click edit, copy and paste it
You can see on the layer window, theres a background layer and object layer
So if I deactivate the background you can see the object
But on the background layer, the object is still appear
You can click the object, magic wand tool, and click the outside of object
And inverse the selection by click Ctrl+Shift I
So now you are selecting only the object
Now click the background, edit, fill and choose the content as content aware and the mode is normal
As you can see, it will camouflage the object as background
Then click Ctrl+D to deselect the selection
And now we have the object layer and background layer
For the background we will save as JPEG
Don't forget to deactivated the layer you don't use
And for the object save as PNG
And now we will import it to Sony Vegas
I will import another photo
You can download this photo samples on link at the description below
The photo is separate by track
So you have the object and the background in different track
You can see here there's a blackbar on the sides
Because the aspect ratio of the photo is not same as the video have
Because the DSLR photo have 3:2 ratio and the video have 16:9 ratio
As you can see on my another tutorial : Aspect Ratio
We must equalize the aspect ratio first
Click event pan/crop,
Click at the first frame, click default and choose widescreen TV aspect ratio
And do it on object photo as well
Now add new track above
Then right click, choose empty event
If I click SOLO right here it's looks blank
But we need the track, I will show you how to use it later
We will make this photo become a 3D first
Click here : compositing mode, 3D source alpha,
The background too
This track is the parent and two photos below are the child
And now we will make a compositing child
The "child" track will follow the "parent" track
If I moving the "parent" pan, it will move the "child" pan either
It's will moving simultaneously
It's because the track is linked
Now we will make it 3D deep
Click track motion
We make this guy come forward
To make you can see how far it's move forward, you must change the track to 3D
And rotate it a bit to see it how long it's come forward
If I rotate like this
All photos is still sticking each other
Now I wil make it come forward this guy
So this is the top of camera,
This is left side, and here front side
I will move it forward a bit
Click here, and use your keyboard to press "down" button
As you can see here, the object is moving forward
Don't moving to far, use your feeling
Click here again to restore
You can see the guy is a bit bigger because he's look near from the camera
To adapt it, you can resize it on the object track motion and scale it down
And make it equal size
Click here again and restore it again
Now we will move the photos
Don't forget to click here to sync the cursor on the frame and timeline
For the first frame here
Then the last frame, I will move the camera forward and pan to right a bit
Be careful don't make the image out of frame too much
Now let's see the result
Well, it's not too obvious
We can moving this guy more forward, maybe.
And re-scale it again
If you see here, it looks more forward than before
At the last frame we will make it more forward like this, and pan
We can see the result again
Looks better now
You can see between foreground and background is moving
Let's try another photos
You can do it all again like we done before
At the first frame we will moving forward a bit
And the last frame I will move it forward more
and pan it a bit
Now let's see the result
You can see the effect better here
That's all for now
