  • This tutorial will show you how to use the Content Aware Fill Tool in After Effects. It will show you how to remove people or objects from a video with a few simple steps. Adobe After Effects' Content Aware Fill Tool uses some crazy technology to fill in the background that should be where your subject is standing while also removing the subject or object from your video. It's like modern-day sorcery! You can remove anything from your video with this tool. All it takes is drawing a rough mask around our subject, changing some settings and generating a fill layer. I hope this tutorial helps, let me know if you were able to remove an object from your video after watching this!

    Can't thank you enough as you saved my mental health, dealing with after effects for the first time and trying to make someone disappear from my video, I watched so many tutorials and spent hours of trying until I found your video!!! Thank you for saying that I have to click on the mask path!!! I had literally made the mask 5 times and I was getting an error message in the end! I wish every success on your channel because you are a great teacher and video editor!! Keep up the good work!

    Amazing tutorial, thank you so much!! Desperately need advice: I'm trying to use content aware to get rid of a radio mic. Every time I generate a fill, it says the background is "completely opaque (no holes to fill)" and aborts the content fill. Is this because the mic is black and the person's wearing a black jumper and jacket? Or something else? How do I work my way around this? Do I make the mask area bigger? Any advice and I'll be eternally grateful

      I dont think you can, I havent tried it yet but there could be a way to rotoscope and then convert the path to mask, I have seen someone do something like that before using a dropdown on the menu, but not sure how it is done, sorry

    Instead of masking can you apply content aware to a rotoscope layer?

      I dont know if you can, the only way it could work is if you auto trace the rotoscope layer and then try, but I havent tried it out, so I'm not sure 🙈

    • @ShaunNotcutt
      @ShaunNotcutt  Рік тому

      You would also have to add some sort of mask expansion as you need space around the edge of your mask..
