Cutting shapes on videoI have searched but haven't come up with a solution. I want to cut out an oval section of some video footage and put it on a motion bkgrd. Is this possible? I don't if you can do things like that to video.. but thought i would ask the experts.
Go out and make it a great day. The choice is yours!

Re: Cutting shapes on videoYou can use the Titler to create a oval shape, then use the track matte key to show video through that.
You can also create a transparent oval in Photoshop Elements to use, what is your goal Donna? There are two tutorials on using the track matte coming up later this month ![]() 1. Thinkpad W530 Laptop, Core i7-3820QM Processor 8M Cache 3.70 GHz, 16 GB DDR3, NVIDIA Quadro K1000M 2GB Memory.

Re: Cutting shapes on videoChuck's method should work, Donna.
Put the video of the kids on Video 2 and the fog on Video 1. Add the white over to Video 3, then apply the Track Matte effect to the Video 2 clip and set it to use the dot on Video 3 as the track for the matte. HP Envy with 2.9/4.4 ghz i7-10700 and 16 gig of RAM running Windows 11 Pro
Re: Cutting shapes on videoHere is a tutorial that Curt Wrigley did for PrPro. It works exactly (or as well as I can recall) the same way in PrE.
http://www.wrigleyvideo.com/videotutorial/tutdes_ppro2_smoothface.htm Now, in his tutorial, he's using the Track Matte Keying Effect to limit areas of a face, that are softened. In your imagination, just replace those Track Mattes with your Oval shape. Instead of a dupe of the face, with Blur added, think of the kids. Hope that this helps, Hunt
