hi..is there a remove and change video backgorund in PowerDirector 365? Please reply me before i'll change my software to After affects adobe . Thanks.
@@coycoy1362 Yes. As I stated, I have plenty of videos that show how to change and remove backgrounds with PowerDirector. Just search on RU-vid and you'll find them. They will work with any version.
Maliek´s tutorials are simply wonderful in all respects: straightforward, with clear, logical, and concise descriptions, always on point with no wasted time or space, packed with useful and pertinent details, and so skillfully presented that his fluent and natural delivery almost masks his total professionalism. He has a talent for making the complicated appear simple. His is truly a university: it takes the "student" starting from "Editing 101" all the way through to a Ph.D. And the icing on the cake is that his delivery is so pleasant and enjoyable.
I was looking for a video like this about two weeks ago and was really disappointed I couldn't find one. I ended up having to figure making video masks on my own. I do this will be very useful to someone in the future. Thank you for making these videos for people.
I don't get to watch your channel as often as I'd like, but every video I've caught has been A+. Learn something or remember something every time. Thank you!
I LOVE this! I had never actually learned masking. I thought it was super difficult but you just broke it down so easily. I feel like a Middle School child who just saw a Volcano or Rocket science project for the first time! Going to move my funds around because I need to be part of this community! TAKE MY MONEY DAMN IT!! Lol Sorry, got a little too excited there.
Maliek, I have been watching your videos every since I found the channel and they are most informative and very educational. I also want to say 'THANK YOU' for creating the all PD MOBILE CHANNEL. My son(11)has been making his own videos using PD MOBILE and he is better at using all the effects than I am...lol. I have introduced him to the PD MOBILE channel and I think he is gonna learn so much more on that end. I greatly appreciate what you've done for all of us. Stay safe and take care.
You’re welcome. The Motion Mask in ColorDirector is easier because it does all the keyframing for you. For those who don't have ColorDirector "this is the way:. Problem is, lots of people are finding that the Motion Mask isn't working as it should. It's turning the background into a spotty white mess instead of turning it green. I'm not aware if CyberLink has fixed the bug yet.
@PowerDirector University Maliek, great tutorial on Masking, in this case above, could you not have just used the Chroma Key and hit the white space to do this more efferently or have I missed something? (I do understand the purpose of this video was to explain masking, I was just curious as to if this would have worked better using Chroma key?)
Hey maliek. I am new to your channel and I just started getting into editing. These videos are super helpful. I just downloaded powerdirector 19 and can't wait to dive in. Great videos bro. Thank you.
@@PDU_Tutorials I just purchased PD 18 ULTRA a couple of months ago and I'm trying to get use to it before upgrading. Thanks for all that you do. Blessings!
@@catchingwithkeytv1707 Understood. In your comment you said you can do this(custom mask) with PD 18. I was letting you know you can do it with 19 because the feature is not in 18
Thank you. I am tutoring Acting Students with Assignment of participating in Skype movie or Stage Play. Sometimes a young man or woman arrive at lesson with black eye or missing tooth which not in earlier shootings of actors & actresses. U r teaching me how to disguise their blemishes.
Thats really a great way to do a custom crop.....in case your video subject is not on a green screen.....however frame by frame need accurate adjustments......great tutorial...just what i need....unfortunately my version 15 PDR doesn't have custom mask selection....huhu
Quick question if I'm trying to do this is it best to use a solid white background behind the video I'm shooting? Basically I'm trying to make a video and walk around over a still photo.
@@PDU_Tutorials thanks so much. I would just hate to make a lengthy information video and not be able to figure it out and have to reshoot over and over. Thanks for what you do!
Brother ur videos are awesome and easy to understand keep going !🤙 And I have a doubt that is there any custom transitions and more effects available for powerdirector
As usual...awesome tutorial. Side question, what's the best computer to use for running PD (PC, All in One or Laptop) AND what specs should I look for? Thanks in advance!
There is no best PC. The higher the specs the better the experience. The required specs are listed on their website but as I stated higher specs would be better. www.cyberlink.com/products/powerdirector-video-editing-software/specs_en_US.html
I have PD 19 ultimate, however, the "Create a custom selection mask" button doesn't show up in mask designer properties.. I really appreciate your tutorials! I hope you can hekp.
Would this be as hard work as I imagine to do something like, say, a man running running across the screen ? It only really works on static images like in the example ?
In the example the woman is moving and she blinks so if you follow the tutorial it can be used for any moving subject. It would be a lot of work though.
How do you remove a person from a video clip and then ur left with the background only. Is that possible? Instead of removing the background from a video, I want to remove a person.
My version of PowerDirector 19(ultra) does not have the create selection mask with the vertex points. But it has a mask painting brush instead. Is it still possible to remove a background from a video clip, that way?
Considering the white background, I'd be inclined to chroma-key out the white so as not to need to use that mask effect as it will take too long with adjustments to the dot positions for each keyframe.
You can also use blend modes since the background is white but the intent of this tutorial is to show viewers how to create a custom mask regardless of the whether the background is white or a football stadium full of other people.
@@PDU_Tutorials I only suggested for those with earlier PD versions with masking limitations. As it happens, I was trying to download and install Power Director 17 Ultra(My Harvey Norman store did not have PD19 available) but the effort was met with failure because the Product Key, when entered, flagged Error, incorrect, out of date or already installed. I forked out $130(Australian) with nothing to show for it and I'm chasing up Cyberlink to make good on it.
@@Samador08 Looking at the image, the whites of her eyes(the woman in the image) don't show up, so chroma-keying the white out should work okay. And there isn't anything else on her that is white.
This channel is for pc. The option is not available on mobile. My mobile channel is RU-vid.con/pdumobile You can find other tutorials to remove the background in that channel.
You can't really make a thumbnail using PowerDirector but here is what you can try. Go to the frame of the video that you want to use as the thumbnail. Pull up the Text/Title tool and add the text that you want. Use your Android device to take a screen shot (usually power button + volume down button). Use your phone to crop the photo so only the thumbnail shows. Save the image to your device.
Question how do you get sharp detailed mask and add movement like the old adult swim bumps with black color boards and text? Can you help me please thank you.
Bro hello again, i am searching this function on my mobile phone, i habe a videoclip and want just the singer and remove every think else please help me
That's a video file that was made on a website called placeit. There are a lot of templates to choose from. placeit.net/gaming-templates?f_devices=RU-vid%20End%20Card Keep in mind, if you have PowerDirector 365 it has free end screen templates that you can use.
So I spent an hour going through all these steps to create a mask. Clicked OK and it didn't take. My clip is the raw clip with no mask. I go back into masks and can choose the mask I made but it won't stay when I click OK. Other masks work on this clip but not the one I made. Frustrating Thanks for the video though. I've always wanted to know how to do this without a green screen.
There has to be an easier and faster way to mask around the lady's shape and still maintain the quality. I think Power Director needs to spend some more time on this function to make it more user friendly.
Why does my PowerDirector19 not have the "Create a Custom selection mask" option? I have tried to ensure its got all updates installed but the vertex selection tool is still not showing up
@@thembilove Have you checked the version on your PC? I have heard of people who upgrade from the free version who think they are using Ultra or Ultimate and it is still the free version. Right click the PowerDirector logo to see the program info. You can also go here to check what features Ultra has compared to other versions. www.cyberlink.com/products/powerdirector-video-editing-software/comparison_en_US.html If Ultra is on your machine and you should have the feature then you should contact CyberLink support for help.
I wanna ask something in case someone is still here almost 2 years later of this video How can I custom mask in mobile? or maybe custom mask cannot be supported on mobile? pls help I can't edit on my pc cuz I don't have enough money for a new one
Mobile tutorials are on ru-vid.com. You should ask on one of those videos. ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-2FHNLqOVDxY.html Be sure to subscribe to that channel for new mobile tutorials every Tuesday.
I just spent money on the New PD and it says I can't use it because I am not connected to the internet. I am, I just downloaded it with the internet. Nobody in forums or google searches has a fix for this. Starting to think I just wasted my money. -.- Does anyone here know how to fix this??
I downloaded powerdirector 21 to the computer but how to get the best resolution I have a sjcam m 20 camera I shoot with it I do video editing but I want to make the best resolution and quality image and I want to upload it to my RU-vid channel Thank you very much for your help Greetings from Turkey
@@hakanaltundag Record at the highest resolution of your camera. When you're done editing your video go to the Produce tab in PowerDirector. Select 2D, select Custom, choose the resolution and bit rate you want for the video. Select the Folder options to pick where to save the video on your PC. Select Start. Upload to RU-vid manually. ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-8cT-UCFWOQc.html
@@PDU_Tutorials If I do this like in the video you made, will it be of high quality? I want to do the same, but I will do it in the latest version of powerdirector 21
You can do this on mobile. It has the mask feature but not custom mask. If you want to see videos for the phone version check out the mask tutorial on my other channel. ru-vid.com
Not sure what you mean, did something happen to it? I haven't checked in a while but I think it is still there. Some people are experiencing bugs with it though.
Hello Ardith. You can do whatever you like. If you have a solid background of any color you can use chroma key. This tutorial is about creating a custom mask so that's what I show the user how to do. Whether the background is all white, a jungle, a busy city street, or an amusement park, this shows viewers how to use the custom mask feature.
Too tedious. You can do this in MS Paint 3D really quick by just pointing and the part of the image you want to keep. And it's FREE! Thenbjust paste back into your video.
