Animated Video Backgrounds - Practical Examples - Religious

Example Six - Religious

This sample was created in Adobe Premiere but the same steps apply for Final Cut, Avid and other non-linear editing programs.

We used a Animated Background from Volume Four is this project. On the first video track, we placed the Animated Video Background, above that track in the timeline, we placed the still picture of the church window.

We prepared the graphic of the church window by placing it on a green background in Photoshop. We then used the green screen keying option to overlay the window unto the Animated Video Background. You could also use a Image Matte and your editing systems keying function if you prefer a more 'soft' look. We have a great package of 50 Image Mattes available for only $9.95 To find out more about Image Mattes and the many ways they can give your video production that professional network look, click HERE!

The text was overlayed using the titling function in Premiere but you could also create the titles in a graphics program such as Photoshop, Paintshop etc. ion a blue or green background and then use blue or green screen key to overlay the text. The advantage of this method is that you can combine unlimited text and graphics elements such as logos and picture elements on your title slide.

Of course you can also use video effects and movements on your titles to make characters fly or dissolve in.
