Introduction

In this episode, we will blur the speaker's face using Gaussian Blur and a mask that automatically follows head movement. Let's get started. Hello, welcome back to the complete Adobe Premiere Pro series from Cerdas Inovasi Digital. To protect the speaker's identity, their face needs to be blurred. Premiere can limit effects to specific areas using a mask, then track the movement of the face so the mask moves with every frame. The speaker's clip is on V1. Find Gaussian Blur in the effects panel and drag it to the clip. In the effects controls, increase the blurness to 60. The entire image is blurred, even though we only wanted the face. Below the name Gaussian Blur there are three icons, ellipse, square, and pen. Click the ellipse icon. The ellipse mask appears in the program monitor and now only the area inside it is blurred. Drag the mask to the face, then pull the edge points so they cover the head. The sharp edge of the mask looks unnatural. In the effects controls, increase the mask fader to 30 so the blurred edge blends smoothly. Mask expansion can be used to slightly expand the area without dragging the points. The speaker moves their head, so the mask must follow. Place the playhead at the start of the clip, then click the track selected mask forward button, which is the play triangle icon next to mask pass. Premiere tracks the face frame by frame.

Step 5: Tracking Results

After it's done, the mask pass is filled with keyframes, one for each frame. Play the clip, and the blur area follows the speaker's face wherever they move. Check several parts by moving the playhead.

Step 6: Inspecting and Fixing

If the mask goes off in one frame, simply fix the mask position in that frame and track again from there. The final result is the speaker's identity hidden throughout the clip.

Done!

Done. We've already applied Gaussian blur, limited it with an ellipse mask, adjusted the mask fader and expansion, tracked the mask using Track Selected Mask Forward, and checked the result. In the next episode, we'll obscure text with a mosaic effect. Need product advertisement videos, business profile videos, reels and TikTok content, or subtitles for YouTube videos?
