Question

Zoom in a video that is masked without scaling the mask

Hi,

I try to zoom in a small video which is masked. When I use the scale parameter I have the problem, that the mask is also scaling which I don't want. I want the mask to not change and only scale the video. 

 

Thanks for your support

Go to the Effects Panel and search for Transform. Drag Transform on to the clip with the mask. Under Effects Control you can now adjust the position and scale of the Transform (not the Motion position and scale), without affecting the mask.

Everything works with the Transform effect on the clip except position.

But one needs to put the Transform effect above the Track Matte effect.

Mask is attached to the frame.

Keyframe the expansion property.

I'm sorry, I'm relatively new to premiere pro and my version is in german. Could you be a bit more precise? Where do I find the expansion property?

Last property in the Mask. Have no idea what it is called in German.

 

Alternative nest the clip and put the mask on the nest.

Scale the clip within the nest.
