No. 2: Can anyone point me in the direction of a guide to making a mask in Adobe Premier Pro 1.5? This one is actually not necessary to be answered. Thanks!
Have a look in the programs help section under "matte". I think what you may be after is a track matte.
A quick summary
- make a b/w image with whatever you want visible in white (I think could be other way round) in whatever image editing software you have (to the resolution of the project).
- Import it into premiere. Place it in a video line (say video 5) all by itself above wherever you want the mask.
- Go to video effects. Select keying. Select track matte. Drag and drop on to the video you want masked.
- Go to the effects options. Select the matte to be video 5. Fin.
