In this How to MOTION TRACK AND REMOVE A LOGO in Premiere Pro CC video tutorial, Alli shows you how to hide a logo as it moves on the screen, by tracking it. This is a great technique to know and use for many types of editing projects AND you can apply it to hiding something distracting or not-so-visually-appealing in the background of your clip, or even to add a logo or element on the screen.
Hey! I’m Allie and in this quick tutorial, I’m going to show you how to mask and track by hiding this big circular sticker on this iPad here.
The technique you’re going to learn can be used for lots of different things. Let’s say you want to hide a logo that’s moving around on screen, or you want to hide something that’s in the background of a wall. By the end of this video you’re going to know how to do just that.

We’re in Premiere Pro. We’ll select this clip on our timeline, hold down the alt or option key on our keyboard and drag up to the second track to create a duplicate of this clip. Next, turn the visibility of the original clip on track 1 off by clicking on the eyeball icon so it’s crossed out. We don’t want to be able to see the original clip because if we could see it we wouldn’t be able to easily spot our mask and it would just make things confusing.

In the effect panel, search bar type in the crop. It is in the transform folder. Drag this effect onto your clip on the V2 track. Hop over to the effect controls panel. Before we adjust the crop effect, let’s get a closer look at our clip. So we can choose the best area of the iPad to use as a mask. Go to the program monitor, click the drop-down menu here, and change the view to 200%. So we’re nice and zoomed-in. I’ll just scroll down here so we can see the iPad and circle and effect controls under the crop effect. Select the free draw bezier tool and over an area of the iPad. That’s a more solid color that doesn’t have any distracting elements. Let’s draw a tall rectangle. This will be part of the iPad that we use to cover the circle. The decision of the shape of the mask you create should be made on a clip to clip basis but I’m choosing to draw a mask that’s a rectangle and larger than the circle because this rectangle mask will blend better with the rest of the iPad and be a lot less noticeable.

Okay, we’ve got our mask. Now under the crop effect, let’s bring the crop over from the left by scrolling it from to 100%. Now we have a rectangle cropped out of our clip, but we actually want the opposite of this. We want just a rectangle mask showing the gray of the iPad and the entire clip around it to be cropped out. We can quickly do that by check-marking inverted and now we have our mask that will track over the circle. Let’s script through this clip to make sure no distracting elements are going to show up in our mask. Here we can see the top edge of the iPad starting to show. We don’t want that to be visible, so let’s select these top points of the mask and drag them a little lower so that we’re just seeing that solid gray part of the iPad. Our mask feather set to 10 by default which subtly softens the edges of the mask instead of having a sharp edge. In this case, I’ll leave the feather at 10 depending on the clip you’re working with. You may choose to increase the feather or decrease it.

Let’s go back to the fit view and turn the clip on the V1 trackback. I’m going to select the mask under the crop effect so we can see the blue outline of it and scrub through the clip. We have our mask but as the iPad moves around on the screen the mask stays still, so we gotta track this mask making sure that the V2 track clip which is the mask is selected on our timeline and that our cursor is at the very beginning of the clip. This is where we’ll have our tracking begin. In the effect controls panel, we can adjust the position of the x-axis until the mask is covering this circle. Under the mask drop-down menu where it says mask path, click on the circular toggle to the left to place your first keyframe which will hold the position of the mask in this spot. Next, we’ll use Premiere’s mask track which does a pretty great job of tracking. Press the play icon and this is going to take a few seconds. These are the tracked keyframes that are now holding the position of the mask over each frame of the clip.
Let’s check out how successful the tracking job was. As you can see, it has done a pretty good job overall, but there are a few areas where the tracking missed the mark, which is okay because we can manually adjust the mask’s position in these areas. Let’s just get a closer look at our mask and this line indicates the play heads position and where it is within your clip. If we move our mask the new position will be saved to that specific keyframe. Click on the mask here to show the blue outline of it and we can bring our cursor over the program monitor where the mask is. Doing this brings up a hand icon that allows us to click down and move the position of this mask so it covers the circle. It’s peeking out. This new position has been saved to that keyframe.

Let’s play ahead to see where the circle peeks out again and move our mask again to hide it. Now that we have the new position saved, let’s check this clip out. There you go. That’s how you mask and track distracting elements to hide them as they move around in your clip in Premiere Pro.
