Just wanna share that I've made this using Rotobrush 2.0 and Auto-Trace feature of AE. Not sure if there's already a tutorial regarding this but just messed around with this one until I got it haha
Basically you do the following:
1) cut the clip you want to rotobrush
2) select the part where you want the saber effect applied
3) adjust rotobrush per frame as needed
4) the resulting clip will have black background(at least that's what happened to mine) and shows what you've selected.
5) Go to Layer > Auto Trace and let it do its thing. You should now have the rotobrushed subject a mask of sorts that you can use
6) duplicate layer
7) on the duplicated layer apply Saber effect(optional, you can apply this on the actual clip)
8) on Customize Cores setting - select layer masks and the Saber Effect should be wrapping around your subject now.
9) Go to Render Settings > Composite Settings > use transparent or add depending on the effect you want
Play around with the settings for the glows and stuff.. By now you have a saber effect-ed gun for your montages! 😊
wow thanks a lot i had no idea you could create a mask from a rotoscope. ive also just recently updated to 2020 and rotobrush 2.0 is much better
@@Rocklan Indeed! A game changer! haha go and make a tutorial using above steps! :D
@@GabJornacion Did u make one?
where is render settings
I'm fuckin lost in what you just said
I don't even have after effects, I just love watching this kind of content for no reason!
If you are just using it for personal use, then there are alot of safe cracks out there. Up to you if you wanna use them lmao
@@ZÏ̇̃ yeah I got mine yesterday
@@tideypods4808 sick lmao
Yo just get the cracked version its free and for sure safe
Can anyone send me the link to the fake crack
I dont even understand english perfectly and never used after effects, but your explanation was perfect, great video bro !
will definily try to use it, thank you.
I'm glad you think so 😊 Thanks!
@@Rocklan lol
thx helped a lot
worlds best of best of best tutorial
Much love bro glad I could help you
people who work with computers for such animation n stuffs and then share to people how to do it are the real Superheroes in disguise.. he had to do masking so many times just for 2-3 sec clip.. now imagine doing such hard work for atleast a 4-5 min video so as to look that amazing for people are always enticed to effects cos it looks that dope in a full montage..
yeah its hard work lol. thanks for all your support i appreciate it
you dont even understand how much I love your edits and how much youve helped me improve your actually a great editors whos tutorials actually help I dont know why your so underated but Im subscribing
Aw thanks! Glad I could help you 😄
Ah I see you are a man of culture. Saber is amazing
Yes it really is! Super easy to get too carried away with though
You’ve actually explained this perfect compared to other videos I’ve now made this in 2 of my montages now! Thanks man
You're very welcome, glad you like it ❤️
oh my gosh. You're the guy i've been looking for, for my edits, I have never subscribe so quick
You can also use the trace mask option on a mask so it tracks it automatically, it usually works quite well but you may need to make adjustments
Is that not what I did?
@@Rocklan oh shit i just realised xD my bad
THANK YOIUUUUU OMG. I WAS TRYING TO FIND THIS FOR SO LONG AND I WOKE UPWITH THIS IN MY RECOMMENDEDS THANK YOU SO MUCH
eyy glad you found it !
the best tutorials out here
*me going on this video for the 3rd time because I keep forgetting*
Aha I can relate 😂
same lol
why wont the transparent screen work need help
9:02 Is when he stops tracking
10:00 Is when he starts using Saber
No problem
saber glow effect is LIT
Yes sirrrrr
this is what i was searching for thanks man
You're welcome!
i know u probably wont see this but much love man ur awesome
I read all my comments, much appreciated!
@@Rocklan thanks man i was just wondering after using this effect my montage wont render and the playback will be very slow and i am not sure how to fix it i have a pretty good pc with 16gb of ram but i am just not sure any ideas? thanks
ur a legend bro, been looking for this for ages
You can use the roto to "mask" it. Make a copy of the clip then on the upper layer clip do the roto and make sure that on every frame the gun is clear with nothing else, then do an auto trace, fix things if needed and apply the saber to the mask that the auto trace did.
(Traces it way better than the tracker)
Lemme make sure I understand what ur saying. So roughly mask out the gun every frame, then precomp and auto trace it and then put that auto traced mask back onto the original clip and saber it?
Rocklan yeah thats one way to put it. I no joke tried it yesterday and did the saber glow after a shot of the operator and I made it last after the reload animation completely.
thats insane ill have to give it a go and update the tutorial if it means massive time savings. thanks a lot
So much potential with this effect thanks for the tutorial
youre very welcome go wild with it!
ive been looking for this type of tutorial vidoe for ages, finally found this❤❤

Thnks for the tutorial you helped me a lot, thnks again
just made a montage, should have used something like this but atleast I can use this for my next one
tysm!!
the best!
Cheers Seppe
hi! ik this might be a dumb question and i’m not sure if u addressed it in the video, but do i apply the effect to the clip before editing or after i’m done with all my syncing and other effects and stuff. love the videos btw, super helpful!!
I was literally about to comment on ur last vid that you should do a tutorial on how to do the saber effect
Aha one step ahead of you 😉
Bro tysm for this tutorial I just posted a new montage with this effect ❤️
Glad to hear that!
very useful
holy fuck thanks so much am gonna try to use it in my next short csgo project
Sounds good man look forward to seeing it
love you
mmmm gotta love a bit of rotoscoping. (well similar approach to something I've done before in Nuke and it was a pretty painful xD)
Good tutorial though, love this effect.
OMG TYSM
I was actually intrigued about how to do this when I first saw it in one of your montages. Thanks!
nice hope you make good use of it :D
This is great, but how do I export this to premiere? it just says missing video copilot
Are you using dynamic link and are you using cracked software? If u can’t get it to work you can always export the clip as an AVI and import that into premiere pro so you lose as little quality as possible
thanks bro
Ty!
thanks!!!!
Tip: Use rotobrash and curves. Adjust curves to the image that you wanna track to make a difference between your mask and backroung and rotobrush should do very good job
Save : 6:38
everything is ok.
except for my saber effect doesnt catch up like yours at 12:23
You can now use rotobrush to make masking far easier.
Yes :) rotobrush 2.0 didn’t exist when I made this. You need to remember to convert it to a mask path for the saber to latch on to or it won’t work tho
I need help. I'm up to the part where you copy the mask to the saber one and my masked out gun doesn't go onto the saber solid
idk if you will reply but when I did the pen tool it colored in the gun instead of masking
Make sure you have the layer you want to apply the mask to selected otherwise I'll create a shape layer
hey rocklan,
it would be really helpfull if you could make/suggest some tutorial for installing these plugins some videos on yt have even given virus.
bro i never completed any thing in after effects at all like whenever i try to do something no matter how ever basic it really is but i just always ge so many errors that i dont complete it but the way you explain it was incredible like it was super easy to understand and apply and this was the first thing on AE that i done at all
THANK YOU
btw CAN U MAKE AN UPADATED VERISION OF THIS VIDEO THAT HOW TO DO THIS WITH ROTOBRUSH 2.O?
nice video
Thanks!
Please help me😭😭😭. The black background from 10:37 cannot be reflected on the original screen. I would be grateful if you could give me some advice.
10:30 when I copy and paste its not in the same place and its way bigger? @Rocklan
Is there a way to make it pass through multiple times?
sorry late comment but after downloading the effects how you put the saber effect in the AE
Download it using the link in the description and install it
@@Rocklan OK thx I got it alr
when i make the new solid and put the saber effect on it and copy the mask to the new solid then i out the customize core to layer mask is all fine but when i go to my render settings and i change the composite setting to transparent it doesnt do anything so i just have the mask without the saber how do i fix this?
keep it with the black background and change the layers blending mode to screen. hopefully that helps
