Step-By-Step Guide to Perform Masking in Filmora

Provided next is a comprehensive guide showing how to mask a video in Filmora using its extensive toolkit:

Step 1. Start New Video Project

Start by launching Wondershare Filmora on your desktop and clicking the Create Project button.

Step 2. Import and Access Mask Tab

As soon as a new window opens up, click the Import button present across the Media tab to add your editable video. With the video imported successfully, lead into the Mask tab for specific masking functions.

Step 3. Add Masking Layers in Video

From the available options, you can choose any preset option for masking. From basic shapes to AI Mask, the presets help you make the operations quicker. Not only that, you can select your own Custom Mask from the drop-down menu or click the Add button to import a mask from external sources.

Step 4. Determine the Basic Masking Layer Settings

Filmora now allows you to add more Mask Layers instead of just using a single layer. With multiple layers added, easily select a particular layer and adjust its dimensions across the preview window. Furthermore, you can change the dynamics of the masking layer by selecting the right option from the drop-down menu adjacent to each masking layer.

Step 5. Make Further Edits to Your Masks and Export

With the basic masking done, you can adjust parameters like Position, Scale, Rotate, and more across the Mask Settings. You can also use the Invert Mask option to alter all the settings for a different effect. Following this, if you wish to add an effect across your added layer, you can choose any of the options available in the Mask Stroke section. Once done, look for the Export button to save your video settings.
