Until Shotcut can do painting on the film.īut, for now it’s still a do able work around Until Shotcut advances to the ability to do more complicated selections to turn into transparent regions. It’s a complicated proces but a work around for now. Then move the transparent images around on the track to line them up to where they want to go on the film. in Shotcut BELOW the film you want to add the rotoscoping to (eg add light sabres on own track below other track of people fighting) Then after you can bring those transparent images (images stores in boxes if you like - but that does not matter since the relevant areas, like a light sabre, are complex and opaque while the rest of the box shaped image is transparent) back into ShotcutĪnd set them on their own video track. In Gimp you’d then add alpha channels and select regions on the film that you want to be transparent (or reverse transparent).
So all you can do (after selecting out a series of images from a film in Shotcut) is take those images to a photo program like Gimp.
Nor does it have painting tools for painting onto the film. It can’t do lasso type selection of complex regions on a film. You should notice that Shotcut has no tools for other types of selection. So setting all the transparent films together gives a nice finished film.īut, so far Shotcut can only do 2 types of transparent regions… greenscreening (select area by color to make transparent) and box selection (put transparent photo on top of your film). For example you might have a film made with many matters - background of city, second film of robots fighting (all regions but robots are transparent), third overlayed film of spaceships flying around in background (all regions but spaceships are transparent) and 4th film of glowing light sabre in robots hands (all regions of film but light sabres is transparent). Involved is having transparent regions - alpha channels and Shotcut has that. Yet in theory Shotcut could - at some time in the future do rotoscoping.
In general Shotcut cannot do sophisticated rotoscaping - if you mean having a whole series of mattes. The recommended video only refers to using Shotcut to prepare a sequence of slides.The actual rotoscoping is then done in another program.
