-This tutorial was brought to you by Mixkit. Hello, filmmakers, and thanks for watching this tutorial by Storysium. Do you want to make your boring music video look more energetic and interesting? Well, in this video I'll be covering seven effects and transitions that will make your music videos look dope. [music] I hope you enjoyed this short demo because these are the effects that we're going to recreate in the tutorial today. I also wanted you to know that I've downloaded all the clips from Mixkit. You can also download them for free and practice long way to tutorial, if you like. Okay, now it's time to move over to Premiere and start some editing. The first effect that I will show you is really easy to do and it can give some very interesting results. As you can see, I've already got a couple of clips on the timeline that we're going to use for this one. With these clips, we're going to create something called a double exposure effect. To achieve this, we simply need to start by stacking clips on top of each other. If you need it, you can also extend the duration and then move over to the effects control panel. Inside the opacity section, we can now select a couple of different blend modes. Let's start with soft light, for example, and by the way, this opacity effect is applied to the top clip. Let's playback and see what we've got so far. [music] That looks really cool. Let's do the other one and also apply this soft light blending mode to this one. Make sure to select the right clip and change the blend mode. Let's playback and see the results. This one also looks awesome. If you like, you can also play around with different blend modes. This can give some very unexpected results. I'll change this one to multiply, for example, which looks like this. [music] For the next effect, we need to do a bit more work, but this can give some amazing results. You could use this as a separate effect or you can use this as a transition which we'll do in this demo. Here, on the timeline, we've got two clips that we're going to use for this. In the first step, we're going to create an adjustment layer. We can do this in the project panel. Click on the new icon and select adjustment layer. We can just accept the default settings and click okay. Then drag the adjustment layer over to the timeline on top of the two clips. I'll shorten the duration so it will match with the rest. For the next step, we need to move the playhead right between the two clips. Then move over to the effects panel and search for the echo effect. You'll find this one on the bottom in the video effects time. Apply this effect to the adjustment layer and move over to the effects control panel. Here, you'll find the echo effects where we're going to change some settings. First, I'll change the echo time to -0.133. Then I'll set the number of echoes to 35. We'll set the echo operator to maximum. Now you can already see that there's a lot going on with this effects-enabled. As the name already implies, this effect echoes and combines the previous frames together. This can result in some really cool trippy effects. In the next steps, we're going to add some keyframes for opacity. The playhead is still in the middle of the transition so we can create the keyframe with value 100 here, then move a few frames forward and create another keyframe with value zero. Then move that second keyframe to the end of the transition, create another one with value zero and move that one to the beginning of the transition. If I scrub to the timeline, you can already see a little bit of the effect that we just created. The only problem here is that this effect is really heavy for your machine, so you might need to render this first as you can see here by the red line. To render this, simply hit the enter key, and Premiere will start rendering. Once Premiere is done with rendering, it will look like this. [music] It's time for effect number three. This one will also be done as a transition between these two clips. For this one, we also need an adjustment layer just like the previous one. I'll add the adjustment layer on top of the two clips and then move over to the effects panel at search for the invert effect. You will find this one under a video effects channel. I will apply the effect to the adjustment layer. As you can see, this will give the video a bit of an x-ray look. Next, we're going to add a strobe effect. I'll put the playhead between the two clips and then use the left arrow key to skip one frame backwards. Then I'll enable the razor tool by hitting the C key or click this icon here. Then I will cut the adjustment layer on the point of the playhead. Then I'll repeat the same step a couple of times and we'll do the same on the second clip as well. That's enough. We can now switch back to the selection tool by hitting the V key or click this icon here, and then we're going to remove some parts. You can left-click and then hit the delete key to remove it. Basically, we're just keeping a couple of frames of the adjustment layer with the effect enabled to create this strobe effect. Okay. Let's have a look at the results. By the way, I've also made a full dedicated video on this effect with a couple more variations. If you want to learn more about this topic, then make sure to check out that video as well but after this video, because I'm going to continue with effect number four. This one is pretty easy to do and it works best with the clip where there is a point of impact like when somebody is jumping, for example. First we're going to find the point of impact, which in this clip should be here. Next, we need to move over to the effects control panel and then we're going to enable keyframes for positioning and scaling. Then we're going to move the first set of keyframes that we just created to the left. We create another set of keyframes and move that to the right, and then we're going to create another set but with different values. I'm going to zoom in slightly and I will also change the position. With these couple of keyframes, we've created a screen pump effect. Match this with the beat of your music and it will look awesome. [music] It's time for effect number five, which I call the scratch effect. We'll start here by finding a point in the clip which we can use to repeat a couple of times. I think that this part will definitely work. We'll move back a couple of frames then switch over to the razor tool and the cutter track there. Then go a few frames forward and make another cut. We can now switch back through the selection tool and then move that last part aside. We can use this later on. Next, we're going to make some duplicates of the part that we cut off. We can do this by holding the alt key combined with the left mouse button and then drag them aside. For this one I will make four copies in total. Now, we can attach the end part back to the copied parts. Next, we need to right-click on one of the parts and then select speed and duration. Then we will enable reverse speed and then click okay. We'll skip the copy beside that and go for the next one. Right-click, select speed and duration, and also select reverse speed. Let's have a look at the result. Again, make sure to match this with the beat of your music to get the best results. I don't have a name for effect number six, but if you do then let me know in the comments. Anyway, we're going to make a transition between these two clips. We'll start by going to the first frame of the second clip. Then we'll click on this camera icon to make a screenshot and I'll save this as a PNG file. Now we've got the screenshot here in the project panel and we'll drag it over to the timeline on top of the two clips. Then shorten the duration so it will cover a couple of frames on the end of the first clip. Something like this will do. Then select the screenshot layer and move over to the effects control panel. Inside the opacity section, click on the free drawing Bezier tool here this pen icon and then start drawing a mask around our main subject. This doesn't have to be very precise. We're going to apply some feathering and it won't be long on screen anyway. As I mentioned, we're going to apply some feathering to the mask and maybe also play around with the mask expansion. Sometimes it also works to change the position. Something like this will do. This one won't take very much time and this is the effect that you created though that. [music] Time for the last effect which is a bit more complex. We're going to create a glitchy offset effect. To achieve this, we're going to use an adjustment layer the one that we already created. I'm going to drag it over to the timeline and then shorten the duration. Next, we're going to make a copy of the adjustment layer by holding the alt key combined with the left mouse button and then drag it up one track above. Then we're going to add a bunch of effects. Inside the effects pedal, we're going to search for the tint effect. We'll apply this one to the bottom adjustment layer. Then we're going to search for the inverse effect and we'll also apply this one to the bottom adjustment layer. One more effect to go, which is the offset effect and we'll apply this effect to both adjustment layers. Time to change some settings. Select the bottom layer and move over to the effects control panel. First of all, set the blending mode to hard light. Then for the tint effects, we're going to change the map black to red, and we're going to change map white to black. For the inverse effect, we're going to change direction to 180 degrees and we'll set relief to five. We'll also change the vertical offset value with a couple of pixels. I'll change this one from 540 to 535. With these effects on the bottom adjustment layer, we've created a bit of an aberration effect. This also gives it a bit of a VHS look. It's time to do some changes to the second adjustment layer. Select the layer and then head over to the effects control panel. We're come to enable keyframes for a shift center and put the first keyframe at the beginning of the adjustment layer. Then move the center down and position that keyframe somewhere here. Then we'll create another keyframe by moving the offset upwards and we'll make a final one with an offset which is slightly downwards and we'll put that keyframe somewhere here. With these keyframes, we've just created this bounce effect and just like I said before, combine this with your beat and it will look like this, [music] Again if you combine all these effects together you can create something like I did in the beginning of this video. Let's have another look. [music] That's it for this tutorial. I hope you enjoyed it. If you did then please like the video and don't forget to check out Mixkit.
