Hi all. Does anyone know a way of feathering the edges of a clip? I am superimposing several clips on lower tracks over the main clip on track one. This is not a problem but the clips have hard edges that I would like to soften to make the end result feel more natural. Any ideas?

Regards

Hi Nigel

Have you thought of highlightling the clips and using one of the feathered masks. They are customisable to suit your needs.

Just a thought Panny TM10, GH2, GH4,

i did think of it but thought as my clips are moving and resizing across the screen it would be impossible. At least for me! It probably is not worth the hassle. I just thought that maybe I had missed a setting in the modify option.

PD15 has masks that can be keyframed. Have not tried it that way yet.
