I have been shooting and editing wedding videos since 1992! I’ve changed with the times and adapted to most of the technical changes and creative innovations that have come up over the years!
Removing the photographer from a wedding video with Adobe After Effects.
The Photographer followed the bride down the aisle taking pictures. I wanted the footage withOUT the photographer in it.
I brought the shot into Adobe Effects.
I placed a piece of video that didn’t have the photographer UNDER the footage with the photographer. Then I used the ellipse tool to mask the bride and inverted it…. so that the bride was floating over footage with out the photographer.
Then I added an ADJUSTMENT LAYER with auto color and brightness / contrast…
then I added a second adjustment layer and played with the HUE& SATURATION to make the footage look better,
The video is also slowed down 1 percent ( Time stretch 101%) and converted from 30 frames per second to 23.97 frames per second, to make it look more “cinematic”
