Masking Trick 1:
First, you need to shoot footage to add the masking effect. To do that, find a doorway with enough space to walk back and forth before setting up a camera with a tripod facing the entrance. Make sure you set the camera at the center height of the door to prevent lens distortion.
With the tripod set up, film yourself walking behind the door toward the camera. Get close to the camera, then walk back to the door. Then, cross the doorway slowly before walking out of the frame. Now let’s get editing with Wondershare Filmora.
Step 1 Fire up Wondershare Filmora, then import the clip on the video editor. After that, move the clip to the timeline by merely dragging it. Add two clips on the first and second tracks.
Step 2 Now proceed to hide the first track before adding a freeze frame on the second track. To do that, move the playhead to find the starting scene with the door frame without your subject. Then, right-click the clip and tap Add Freeze Frame. After that, extend the freeze frame area and cut out the rest of the clip.
Step 3 Next, click the Effect button and find the Image Mask effect in the Utility folder. Now drag the effect to the top layer.
Step 4 Double-click the clip to open the video editing options, then choose a rectangle image mast under Video Effects. Ensure the mask is inverted by clicking the Invert Mask checkbox. Now adjust the mast to match the door frame before clicking Ok.
Step 5 Up to this point, unhide the first track, then find the scene where the subject appears on the door frame. On the first track, cut the clip before the subject appears on the stage before cutting the scene where the subject crosses the door frame for the second time on the second track. Now play the video to view your masking effect.
Masking Trick: 2
In the second masking effect, we want to create a subject walking in and outside a tree. To do that, find a tree with a clear background, then place your camera to film the center of the tree trunk where the subject will be walking.
Now film the subject walking from one side of the tree, stop for a second, and then turn back. They should repeat the same action, but this time they’ll walk forward outside the frame after the one-second stop. That’s all!
Step 1 Import the clip on Filmora, then add the footage on the first and second timelines. After that, hide the first track, then find the scene where the subject walks forward away from the tree in the second track. Cut off the area before that action.
Step 2 Next, click Effects, choose Utility, then drag the Image Mask effect on the second video track. Then, double-click the second clip, select Video Effects, and choose a rectangular option that masks the right side of the frame.
Now adjust the mask until it covers the entire right side of the tree. After that, unhide the first clip and move the second to match the first clip’s timing. You can also cut out everything outside the scene of the first clip.
Step 3 Play the video to see your subject walking in both directions of the tree.
Masking Trick 3:
For this masking illusion, we’ll create a video with a subject jumping over a house. So, set up your camera tripod on a low level in front of the building. You can also add a mark on the ground for your subject to know where to jump.
Now tell your subject to walk to the marker before jumping and walking out of the scene.
Step 1 Import the clip into Filmora and add it to the first and second tracks. Now hide the first track before finding the scene without the subject in the second track and add a freeze frame. After that, extend the freeze frame area and cut out the rest of the clip.
Step 2 Now, it’s time to customize the clip with a mask. To do that, head to the Utility folder under Effects and choose Image Mask. Click the Invert Mask box to invert the mask.
Step 3 Double-click the video track and choose an image mask under Video Effects. Note that you may need several combinations of masks to mask out the sky and leave the building. So, play around with different masking shapes until the sky is covered.
Step 4 After masking, unhide the first track on the timeline before playing the video to find the scene where the subject appears and cut off everything before that scene. Also, find the scene where the subject jumps in the air and cut the clip in the second track. Then, delete everything after that scene.
Step 5 Play the video to see your subject jumping over the building and walking away from the scene.
Conclusion
That was easy, right? Playing around with Filmora’s masking tools can create incredible masking illusions like the ones we’ve discussed. And don’t forget this video editor has many more creative possibilities. You should try these masking tricks!

After looking through this article, you will make your video more fascinating and get more views instantly. It’s all just due to B-roll, which will act as a ninja feature in your video. In this regard, Wondershare Filmora will handle everything.
Scroll more to discover two different types of B-roll videos and get an idea of how to make fascinating B-roll videos.
Part 1. What Is a B-roll?
B-roll is alternative or supplementary video footage that editors can use to intercut in between their main video. In that way, B-roll can add more information to a scene.
An additional footage
It is added as a supplementary video to interact with viewers more closely. This feature helps to give more details of a scene.
Visual representation
When the main explanatory video is too boring, you can add a b-roll to represent the movie’s story visually. It can also add to spice up and beat the energy of the narrative.
Without sound
The B-roll shots are mostly without audio or with little background sound. In most cases, the sound of the primary video is continued while the B-roll footage is just shown.
Act as a filler
The criteria for the B-roll is to provide the situation of the storyline. Additionally, it could be utilized as filler in between scenes in a movie or television program. B-roll may be found almost anywhere!

Part 2. Two Types of B-rolls: Explanation Video B-rolls
When recording any explanatory video, the audience may leave it in the middle of a video if a character explains without any visual representation. When explaining something new, showing the object in B-roll can be more effective than just verbally explaining what the audience is seeing.
Let’s take the video we made about microphones as an example. Instead of just verbally introduce the various mics, we inserted B-roll footage to display what they look like and how they can be used. The combination of the visual footage and the background voiceover presents the mic in a more vivid way. Also, it keeps the audience’s attention.
Goal of the explanation B-roll video
The main goal of this type of B-roll is to show your audience what you are talking about instead of just telling them in a dull way.

- Watch your edits back and check out where you need.
- Sense about the dull and complex points and cut the main video from there.
- The points can be easily fixed with visual aids.
Part 4. Two Types of B-rolls: Storytelling Video B-rolls
During the creation of short films or any storytelling videos, if a person sits and speaks without showing any character or anything else, it will turn boring. Due to this, you have more chances to lose your audience and viewers.
In visual storytelling, if you will insert more clips with close shots, it will make the environment cool. The crazy thing is that you can make mimic shots easily at home by utilizing household objects. Let’s check out one of the examples.
Example 1. Film B-roll footage with food
So let’s add some b-roll to give it more context even if you have a master shot of yourself looking off frame alone.
Step1Write a script
Before making any video, the first step is to write a script for the whole video. If you will have more than two characters, then make dialogues for everyone and practice it again and again to give a fascinating look.
Then speak to your audience, make sure that what you are speaking is vivid and make everything simple and crystal clear.
Step2Shot a primary video
First of all, make a primary video according to your script by implementing a camera at one side, or you can also change the angle of the camera lens during shooting to have a look from all sides.
As you can see that it’s kind of boring for the audience, but we will make it more unique by implementing closer shots. For this, follow the last step:
Step3Make B-roll shots
Make closer shots of things which the character have to select and pick up. Check out two B-roll shots for the main video:
- First, make a closer shot of the object (Snacks) that the character is noticing prior.
- Second, create more intimate footage of the second object (Banana) which the character will select and grab.
Step4Edit both B-roll footages in Main Video
Now, in the last, insert the B-roll footage in between the primary video from the Filmora and get your results. Enjoy it with your viewers!
Now experiment at home with more daily life activities and create all on Filmora. Check out one more example to create B-roll footage!

Try using readily accessible cardboard to create light effects in different shapes and give the film a fantastical place. These methods frequently produce artistic videos that transmit unique moods to viewers.
Only experienced photographers and videographers understand how to use these fundamental tricks to gain viewers into the photos.
The intriguing thing is that if the light is more shaped, it will more accurately reflect the image’s background, setting, and context. Try it out!
Step1Cut the cardboard
You may shape the cardboard any way you desire. We’ll experiment with this by cutting cardboard into the shape of window shades.
Step2Make B-roll footage
Create B-roll footage by moving the cardboard around the light source after giving it shape. The person appears to be seated close to the window and conveys aesthetic vibrancy.
