In this video, we'll show you how to create a roughen edges effect in Wondershare Filmora. First, drop a "Default Title" on track 1. Then enter your word and change font to any bold font. Increase the font size to 150. Take a "Snapshot" and replace the "Default Title" on the timeline with the snapshot.
Now, go to the “Effect,” find the "BCC Turbulence" effect in the "Boris Effect," and apply it to the snapshot. Then go to the "Effects" settings, then go to "PixelChoose/Mocha" and "Launch Mocha Mask and Track." In this pop-up panel, zoom in on your text using the mouse wheel. Then, select the "Brush" tool to create dots like this around the edges of your text.
Once you're done with the dots, click on the "Quick Mask" option, and you will see lots of Blue points reflecting masked places. Then click on track "Forward," and it will automatically create the mask in the same place throughout your clip. After that, click on "Save" and close this window.
In the "Effects" setting, we change "Scale" to 20, "Intensity" to 240, and "Reference" level to -50. You can see we're getting roughen edges around our word. Then, expand "Distortion" and change the "Master" value to -60. Expand "Texture Geometrics" and change the "Aspect" value to 160. You can change out "Wrap Mode" to get different edges. Switch off the "Use Improved Noise" option; under "Noise Type," choose "Smooth," then go to "Interpolation" and select "Quadric."
Now, stop at the 20th frame and turn on the "Master" keyframe under "Distortion." Then place the playhead at 4 seconds and ten frames and change the "Master" value to 0. Let's see the final preview.
Keep in mind that this effect is pretty heavy, and rendering will take lots of time.
Guide on How to Create Roughen Edges Effect using Filmora
What you need to prepare:
- A computer (Windows or macOS)
- Your video materials.
- Filmora video editor
Add and Edit Default Title
Open the Filmora's main editing window, go to the toolbar, and select the "Titles" tab. You will find the "Default Title," select it to drag and drop it to the timeline track.
Click on this title in the timeline, and settings will appear on your right. Under the "Titles" tab in the settings, select the "Basic" option. You can make changes like adding text, font style, and others from this section. For a roughen edge effect, try to choose a bold font. Also, increase the font size as per your requirements. From the preview screen, take a snapshot of this text by hitting the camera icon.
Add Effect to the Snapshot
Delete the "Default Title" in the timeline and replace it with the snapshot. Go to the "Effects" tab and choose the desired effects for your footage. Drag and drop this effect on the timeline.
Go to the right panel and enter the "Effects" tab; scroll to find the effect-specific section you added and select it. Enter its expanded menu to select an effect for your footage. Doing this, you will be entered in a new window.
Create a Pattern for Roughen Edges
A new panel will pop up; zoom into it using your mouse wheel. First, zoom in on your screen, go to the toolbar of the newly opened window, and select the brush tool. With the help of this brush, you can track and create lots of dots around the edges of your text.
Tap on the "Quick Mask" option from the above toolbar. You'll see many blue points covering your text. Next, click on the "Forward" play button below the preview screen, and from the top left corner, click on the "Download" icon and exit this window.
Adjust Effects Settings to Achieve Roughen Edges
Once your text is downloaded, return to the main editing window. It is time to adjust some effects settings to get roughen edges. Afterward, go to the right panel and make changes under the "Effects" tab. Customize the "Scale," "Reference levels,” and "Intensity" levels.
Then, under the "Distortion" option, decrease the "Master" value. Afterward, expand the "Texture Geometrics" option and raise the "Aspect" value.
Moreover, you can experiment with the "Wrap Mode," "Use Improved Noise," and “Interpolation” modes for additional effect. Place the playhead a few frames further from the starting point, and under "Distortion," turn on the "Master" keyframe and adjust its value a few frames forward.
Final Setting and Export
Head towards the timeline toolbar and click the "Render Preview" button for the final preview. If you like the results, click "Export" to end the process.
After going through the steps, you know how simple it is to make your content unmatched, along with personalization. You can use this roughen edges effect for intro themes, vlog names, and opening or closing scenes of movies as well.
