Make Sports Highlights Effect Videos

Different types of music and transitions and so many other elements are used for editing sports videos so they look more intense and engage the audience when they are watching that video. You can edit sports videos by using the Wondershare Filmora.

You will have four different videos, each of them will be from a different angle. People in the video will be doing different things.

Have a close-up shot of a practicing. Take a shot of them playing the game. Take another shot with the team or use a headshot of the individual players. And finally, add another shot of the entire team.

Different angles will help to get you the best results.

You will also need some audio effects. So in the audio menu, you can have many options. For an intense video, you can have beat music or something which matches the energy in the video.

Choose a song of your own choice and mark the beats of the song. Right-click on the song and get the beat detection option which will detect the beats.

Track this onto your timeline and see the markers that will guide you exactly where there is a change in the beat.

Get rid of the first half, which is smooth, and move to the fast part. Go with the markers and adjust the position by clicking and dragging it to the other side.

You can change the position of the markers. When the audio waves are high, there will be a lot of beats going on. So we will have an introductory part and an integral part. Now pair up the videos with the markers. Go to the media and align the videos in whatever order you want.

Start with the introductory video. Now for the splitting use the speed ramping and transitions.

At the first marker, click on the speed ramping, go to customize, and add a frame light at the spot. Then jump on to the next marker and set the speed. In the middle add a keyframe, speeding up the video. Add two keyframes if you want.

Now continue with the speed ramping and match all the markers that you have created.

Right after the area that begins faster, you will bring it to the normal speed and then bring it down to a slower speed. Make a keyframe. Then go to another marker and slow that area. Grab the second keyframe and bring it down to the same level.

Just play around with the speed ramping until you have matched all the markers. Click OK. Split up the introduction video and then go for another video which is the video of the play.

Then go with the practice video. And then finally go with the last video. Do the same things as were done with the first one. Look at the markers and use speed ramping to either speed up or slow down.

After you finish speed ramping all your videos, it’s time to add some additional effects.

Go to the effects menu and type vintage. You can use different filters of your own choice. Then add it on top of your videos. Now you will get some nice colors and it’s a big theme which makes it look more serious.

Now go to the effects menu and type grain, add it just to make it look more stylish. Make sure to match it with the videos. And if it is too much then just double-click on it to lower the opacity of the effect.

Finally you can go ahead and add some light leaks which will help especially in the video where there is no action. If you want to add some movements, a light leak is perfect for the players.

Click on the effects menu and type light leaks. You will have many options there. You can also add some transitions to make this effect looks cooler. Go for any transition that you want. Add this directly in between the two videos. That’s how you can get the effect.

Now the video looks a lot more engaging. Follow the same steps to make this effect.
