Introduction

This is the result we'll create: a busy city intersection becomes an empty, quiet road, as if all the cars have vanished. Let's get started. Hello, welcome back to the complete Adobe After Effects series from Cerdas Inovasi Digital. Content-Aware Fill removes objects from video by filling in the missing area with pixels from other frames. This method works best when the camera is stationary and the object is moving. Create a composition from the city road footage.

Step 1: Assess the footage

It's a short clip, the camera is stationary on a tripod, while cars cross the intersection. Since every part of the road was previously seen empty in one of the frames, Content-Aware Fill can build a road without cars.

Step 2: Mask the car area

Select the footage and the mask rectangle that covers the car path at the intersection, from the left edge to the right. Change the mask mode to Subtract, so that area becomes a transparent hole that will be filled. Open the window, Content-Aware Fill.

Step 3: Content-Aware Fill panel

Fill Target shows the hole that will be filled. Select Fill Method Object to remove the object, Lighting Correction Moderate, and Range Wear Area so that the entire clip is analyzed. Click Generate Fill Layer.

Step 4: Generate Fill Layer

After Effects analyzes the frames of the clip, taking pixels of the empty road from different times, then arranges them into a new fill layer above the footage. Turn off the fill layer, the cars return to crossing.

Step 5: Before and after

Turn it on again, the intersection is empty, while trees, buildings, and clouds remain naturally moving because they are outside the mask.

Step 6: Preview

Play the preview. The city road becomes quiet without vehicles, suitable for a fictional scene or cleaning the background. For moving cameras, track the object first and animate the mask before generating.

Done!

Done. We have evaluated the footage requirements, created a subtract mask, set up the Content-Aware Fill panel, created a fill layer, and compared the results. Keying and rotoscoping modules are complete. In the next module, we create the N6FX visual effects.
