Instructions
Step 1
Often, such operations are performed by qualified professionals using special equipment, with the required software, but with the help of programs almost any user can do it. Download Adobe Photoshop from the Internet. If you have this software on a disk, then install it into the system local disk of your computer. The version of the utility is almost irrelevant.
Step 2
Select the desired video and the series of photos from which you want to crop faces to insert them into the video. If you need to cut a face from another video file, then you will need to take a snapshot while playing the video clip (pause and capture a frame and save it in the video editor).
Step 3
In a special program, using the right tools, cut out the face. In the Adobe Photoshop software package, this can be done using the lasso. It neatly cuts the drawing out of the photo.
Step 4
Paste the cut image onto the transparent background and save. Decompose the video clip into frames. For each frame, you need to superimpose your cut image. Then save the video in its usual format, such as WMA or AVI.
Step 5
Remember that the drawing changes constantly in the sequence. If you leave the face in the video clip static, then it will be noticeable with the naked eye, and to make the video look more natural, you need to select several photos with different facial expressions in the frames.
Step 6
In order for the contrast between the superimposed photo and the original to be not noticeable, the edges must be retouched. It is also better to choose a photo of similar quality with a video. As one of the options for inserting a face into a video, you can record a video using HBH projection (on a blue or green background) and using Pinacle, insert a face into the video.
