well
time
below welcomed his video tutorial TJ
wanna take a look at creating a little
water mark Egan stick
in a corner over your videos very a
simple to do
gonna become a two-part video tutorial
I'm going to show you how to actually
create this logo
and then returned over to the video guy
that remark Absalon
time he will be shown you how to take
care of the deal portion of this
of you the check out more marks doesn't
have all his our website which
you to challenge over the video
description are
official video shell my checking out I
can check em out rate you there
and this video is going to you you know
see mostly fayed right into him
picking up where I leave off so with
that in mind let's take a look at what
we have to create here
I we're gonna create this lovely see
your on-screen pretty simple to do
and typically for creating a logo
Memorex menus Adobe Illustrator because
that's going to give you
real vector artwork here in Photoshop
I'm cheese butter shops in a majority
black jury will follow along
nobody should have any problems which
can be used with doctor masking
in Photoshop initially had to do
everything is in easy we're gonna go
through and you're lucky things because
I actually picked up a couple little
lower
kitchen church that only use more
regularly actually as I was des moines
miss being out
ways to make it may be a little faster
some let's take a look at how we can
create this
particular logo that's just something
tisch's company may can be your name to
be an image and what are we watching
I'm gonna close this down. national save
it am reading a file new create a brand
new job when you mean what everyone
I want us to be 800 by 450
again size is really going to matter
because I'm using vector mast
real scale or something and how we want
human Photoshop so
background contents what the background
to be black we don't have that option to
choose white
Emerson hill K and pursuant to which the
commander control I
let's get inverted color background
making a black like you see
I'll the next thing we want to do is hit
the D key
that such a former on background colors
back to black and white respectively
and when he X to put the foreground
background colors white should now be
our foreground color okay what we want
to do next
he is grabbed our Rectangle Tool yeah I
reaction have selected
and I what we're going to do is click
and hold on that and she's the polygon
tool
and only copyright actually custom
shapes icon to log
arrow pointing down select them with a
polygon options
make sure you have starred checked on
and in Denmark sides by
75 percent okay we also want
this start have 10 sideshow said that
the 10 and we're ready to sharper star
up one last thing we do wanna make sure
he said his step is to draw a shape
layers
right there's day icon these three icons
your I all the way on the far left
that's going to give us a sheep that is
vector basically
a vector mask so that can be great so
we're going to do is rich list are
drawing out
stars to you begin creating shape than
what I want to do is make machine
to your to the left side to be pretty
big and then sort of narrow down to get
over the right hand side so
jurors are drawing and shit like this
plant under the stars
like saddam
just like this and don't worry if it's
not coming up with a perfect not to be
too too picky here
Sheena com blow through this pretty
quickly
mom I
couple more shapes Miami all done
job when they're you might wanna come to
topple additional shapes andrea is that
maybe don't look quite the way you want
them look much sense probably pretty
good went through a couple more out here
mom
might start a bond count: a little bit
because we have all these layers in here
easier all just the vector she players I
want you have all these layers we want
to do is select the top layer
holding the Shift key and select the
bottom layer and any commander control G
to group them all averaging double
clicking on an email logo
babys just like that perfect alright so
now we've done that
lemme we are ready to go ahead and
essentially punch a hole in center
stories we don't wanna play some black
text illnesses because
we want to be able to see our video
through this watermark russian teen tire
watermarks any
opaque so it's gonna be transparent
something like a little bit blast down
there in the bond plunged us your videos
through its not gonna be
obstructing anything from you when you
placed watermarking video to become
important
but his gimmick is a little more
difficult because we actually cut this
whole the center bar logo
all right let's get complicate things
because again we want to leave it as a
vector mask and this year
if you want a good time you keep talkin
image camera size increase can be sized
and just scale starting up you're gonna
see its gonna stay crisp and sharp on
the edge is not going and blurry
like you would typically expect raster
graphic to get
so it's getting a little peace of mind
you're working for ShopRite
we need to start with tax because which
one type or name across as a partial
home and also start with a textile
and I'm using this particular font face
honestly a manager to pronounce it de
now
the new something like that DNA ubet
is the name of the font face and I'm
doing bold
and 115.9 team in place that text are
so if you're not sure what font Asia
using you may want to just select a
different tactical and I'm gonna go with
a bright blue you're just for the sake
of being able to see it
I because the the call and text is not
going to matter since can select your
number to take the
the letters pH I L A and I left out
%eh every girl P H I L A as can be
our name are challenging or whenever
just some name I came up with
arms replace it or right here in the
center
%uh our arsov logo base are now we've
done it
text is up vector just sort of like
inherent nature
this modest particular to a hot so
what we want to do is just basically
commercials to a path and then use that
pat is our vector mask
need a path to create a vector mass we
can just you know controlled with this
texting
comer to mask so what we want to do is
just with this text layer selected
we're going to come up here to you layer
we're gonna tight
and where is a create work path you can
see well
if you're following along you can see
you now have the work path wrapping
itself around all those letters like
mike has battled there's my work better
now the problem is if I were to take
this members to elect a mass right now
all we do show me the white that inside
up his path
so high need to do is create a path that
covers everything except these letters
really really easy deal we come over
here it's like this polygon tool we use
earlier
we're gonna go up to the Rectangle Tool
nice result this to Joel pads that would
be the icon in the center
those three icons on left hand side
control bar and all over the far right
hand side control by Richard exclude
overlapping patterns are you can see the
tooltip is Tony
exclude overlapping Pat areas select
that and just drawn out shape
over the entire first up document just
like that
now go back to our past and we can see
that everything in our work as white
except the tax very tiny on how I know I
can barely see here's I'm sure you're
having a really rough time seeing it
there were you watching from so
everything except inside this text is
white
so all the white stuff is going to be
shown the black stuff which in this case
is the taxed
is going to be him so with this work
pass electing to go back two layers I'm
gonna selected this
layer group somebody'll layer vector
mask
current path so essentially we're
telling for shot take the current path
that we have selected
and make that a vector mask them and you
can see we've got a whole Middle however
doesn't look like we're dying because
our blue text to showing
here's a quick hockey tape when you
haven't I a patch selected
get the Escape key the selected there we
go that's gone I'm going to hit the
eyeball
the left hand side of the text layer and
you can see we've cut a very sharp all
in the center of our logo very very nice
I one last in dubious selected this
entire look up group you me and is
reduced capacity 50 percent
ago I'm gonna all double-click the
background layer the option double click
on a Mac
and and shut that off we can toss in the
trash I'm just gonna shut it off for
here
and there's our local you can barely see
it but what I'm going to do next is just
save it outta control should ask the
command
ship ass on the Mac and here I was going
in a min
logo that PST you know K and yes
maximize our compatibility and area we
have created
our logo easy there it is ratio that
background there although
and now I'm gonna turn over Mark who's
gonna wat you guys through
how to take this little girl comes PST
do everything to do
bring it in and getting your video how
you guys might have something here and I
don't think
10 min for making that cool and groovy
logo well we have the logo that had been
did
and now we're gonna take it and
incorporated into our video
and the way we're going to incorporate
it is we're gonna create something
that's called al Parque
now all what is a bug Love Bug you've
probably seen him before
it's the little logo this either penned
up in the corner of your video
you decide to wind down below a probably
seen it
on TV shows like for instance in de mi
uses one
NBC ABC all these are different
companies a usurper station
identification
and also show that is copyrighted and
who created it
and everything and you too can use this
in your video to make it look more
professional so what we're gonna do is
read takers in June
Sony Vegas Pro and we're gonna show how
to go from there
I'll was good too violence any Vegas Pro
and click
new and you'll see the project window
come up and I
on the template you can choose whichever
template you want to customize is up to
you
but I'll let me use a TV 7 2013 friend a
second for
this project more click OK
and Cortera media been area and or
select the
export abt and as you can see I get I'll
lie different files lined up including a
logo
now I'm gonna just drank these files
straight down onto the time line
negative trend is at all be Chizik these
files are going to actually
represent you were video
that you're putting your bug onto less
get these
down here in these are summer desert
files I did
quite a while back I was a nice Heights
n birthday when I get these but a
it was cool being out there it's really
awesome on but anyway
this represents your video now
we need to actually answer track and we
want the shank to be on top you can do
this by isolating
troll shifting cue or you can go over in
like like an answer
video track which ever you would like to
do now so that we need to talk about
really quick here's the panel's been all
non-linear editing software the fact is
your time line is like a layer
K again is actually like looking decided
key
were cut into the top being the top the
cake and
our video clip here being bottom of the
cake in this this is continuous
more each layer but everything the
layers down here
bottom as gonna be a mama que stayed
another layer on top so
you get the just up now your weekend
between noon REM preview and actually
Vegas and erase the preview on the
campus together but this is our campus
window at the moment
is like looking down from up top on the
cake so you can see the
topic so just remember this when you're
reading it said
something need to know 90 90 s probably
already know it
are but we need to keep our bug and top
up the cake and that would be this track
right here
before we proceed to men like to talk
about this a little button
here Vegas in CM hand box trying to help
those of
but I feel click on the site and click
Save areas
you'll see two boxes appear this is a 10
percent is owned by accident when he
presents sound box
between a person's own Bob boxes pretty
much for titles and 18 percent is from
cut off from the picture now uses and
video
and a income transfers because what
happens a light eyes if you're
watching on television the sites like
right over here
can actually be cut off by the TV
well the ten-percent box let us know
that we're in a safe area
%uh so if we're adding something well
actually
get cut off are sometimes it'll cut off
a little bit on the top and bottom to
the resolution but that
rarely happens arm and
just gonna prove a point you need just
demonstrate but let's say we decided to
put our
load a bug right here
well have been a safe area you know
their team will not cut it off but if we
put it over here
it would probably be cut off on the TV
so this is something a few
doing professional video editing you'll
be using these boxes a lot just to make
sure that everything's gonna be okay
now for internet video like this issue
to you
don't worry about these boxes their new
kind of points on UT
cell you can play shalom anywhere on the
screen in natal
it'll be ale get well now since I
can win over them leaders of the time
being
let's go up to you our Explorer window
and drag down our logo to our very first
rap
now you can see there big and bold
stupid right
yeah we're done now I'm skate not
finished
we have to recuse the site I love the
low dose so that it worked for our buck
project
but arm but there's only five seconds
when you take a little longer
so much committee very edge %uh yeah
the clip that we brought in from
Photoshop and
click on it and dragged over to the
entire duration over a cliff
and this is a Photoshop file for shops
files work great in Vegas they don't
layer it or anything like that in
Premiere Pro
but I the transparencies and everything
else cunt
fine so works great I love using
Photoshop files and
in biggest because it's so we've got it
here
and it's looking kinda big
we need to make it smaller so to do that
school over to track motion on the track
it the loaders locator click track
motion
and a jail window who is going to open
up the track motion window
now before we proceed any further
make sure that your aspect
ratio is locked and Addison button is
clicked
if it's not clicked will happen is if
you get and try and reduces
had all kinds a wonderful problems you
can hold shifted
maintain but just a it is better to keep
the aspect ratio
locked so any issued a summons for
artistic
creativity something here logo
I'm would recommend keeping it locked
Scotland indigenous
again I sell make sure that a button is
clicked
& Ellis co TN again and
and reduce it down insides
now the size of your buggy is really
going to depend
on the quality of your video by
transitive her shooting
HD you can
in make it a little bit smaller than
this and it'll work for you
if you're doing YouTube you might wanna
make it a larger but you can't in HD in
the quality looks pretty good on inside
out a
causing problems but if you're using
another internet video site
video and just isn't that great you may
wanna make it pretty hard to people on
it
so less actually
it's actually produce this incise
and me came about like that
cool and I was actually click on it and
drag it
to the courts because you want to make
sure
that your buck is
in the corner your video whether it's
the corner on the bottom
the corner on the top you never amber
ever want to for your buck bike right
there
I have it at the moment because you
might be doing energy
and your billions upon someone's
forehead
which has happened in interviews before
but not
this type of bug and if the census for
an issue but one other photographer
actually
team photograph with a tree behind
someone it looks like the tree is
growing at their head
so just be aware at the best place to
place a bug
is in the corners ugh your video I think
we're actually in a place
year said that top appear and
but I'm images and actually going to
select the oval a signed CD
temps end zone because a I'm so used to
doing this then disconnect do it here
anyway
can weekend so we know it's safe even if
we're not using on YouTube it'll
work on television you'll be able to see
it all right let's clean clothes are
attract motion window
now something that you'll notice is holy
word used it it becomes um
not quite as transparent there's one way
to solve this
arm go to the top of the track with the
logo
clip is located and the little finger or
appear a spleen
think like that employees net down to
about 75 because we want this to be
noticeable
but not that noticeable because I saw
home
winnable bonnets to show there's there
but it's not really
so all we just did now looks great
so now we've got this done have
professional-looking with Phil
appear look so release me then cool
need to render this out to blend
DoubleClick and
the track to select the region's ever
going to render book to file
could render as and all we're gonna do
this in a
ABIM sexy cars desert
and are we gonna do it in a template
which is a 720 intermediate but I'm
gonna change something here on the
custom
YouTube video and
a minute change the video format nissen
upon connect
black magic 42 because I was actually
the original on cuba's
reported click OK click
same
in with your action rendering out our
filed with the bug on it well this has
been fun guys we've created a
cool oh that 10 they did and I have
taken 10 min school oh and actually
shown you how to make em bug for
your opinions with their on YouTube are
of you did
up
