Top 5 Masking Video Editors that Create Excellent Videos

What’s Video Masking

Video masking is a video editing technique widely used to create all sorts of videos, like video ads, slideshows, or movies. The masks can be in different shapes, for example, circle, square, star, heart, letter. Some advanced video editors even use customized masks on videos. Their purposes are hiding, or revealing certain parts of a video.

There are two types of video masking. The first is static masking. This kind of mask doesn’t move throughout the entire duration of the video clip. The second is dynamic masking. It changes the position, size, shape, or transparency over time.

Video masking opens up numerous possibilities for video editors. You can remove unwanted objects from the video, isolate a particular area of the frame, track the movement of an object in a video.
