Easy VFX Every Video Editor Should Know

The role of a Video Editor is to cut together a story, but the role of a Video Editor is evolving. Video Editors now need to have a basic understanding of how to rotoscope, motion track, and composite. The good news is that using Premiere Pro and After Effects (and some creativity) it is quite easy to perform these basic visual effects. In the video below you’ll learn how to do all the basic VFX every Video Editor should know.

Of course, in order to pull off some of these effects you need the help of some visual assets. One of the best places we find assets to help us bring our creative VFX to life is Production Crate. It has millions of pre-cut visual assets, such as fire, magic powers, smoke, motion graphics, debris, and much more.
