Introduction

Creating visually stunning text effects for your music video edits can elevate your project and captivate your audience. In this article, I’ll guide you through creating mixed media, 3D chrome, and CRT (Cathode Ray Tube) effects—all within just one minute. Let’s dive into the steps!

Step 1: Mixed Media Effect

  1. Choose Your Template: Start by heading to your template folder. Browse through and pick some cool effects you want to use in your edit.
  2. Add to Timeline: Drag and drop your chosen effects onto the timeline.
  3. Apply Ultra Key: To achieve a mixed media effect, apply the Ultra Key effect to your footage.
  4. Adjust Frame Rate: Lower the frame rate to 12 frames per second for a unique look.
  5. Overlay Paper Texture: Add a paper overlay to enhance the mixed media feel.
  6. Set Blend Mode: Finally, set the blend mode to 'screen' for a seamless integration.

Step 2: Creating 3D Chrome Effects

  1. Key Out Green: For 3D chrome effects, simply key out any green elements in your footage.
  2. Instant 3D Visuals: Once the green is keyed out, you’ll have striking 3D visual effects without the need for any rendering.

Step 3: CRT Effect

  1. Import CRT Files: To create that nostalgic CRT look, drag some CRT overlay files onto your timeline.
  2. Adjust Blend Mode: Change the blend mode to 'screen' for that vintage vibe.
  3. Enjoy Your CRT Effects: Voila! You now have impressive CRT effects ready to go.
