Annoying Orange Effect



I had to make my face be on an object. Firstly, I opened up 'Photo Booth' and recorded myself for a few seconds. I then went to 'Google' and copied an image of an appleAfter that I opened up 'Final Cut Pro' clicked on 'File', then 'Imported' the short video clip onto it, then 'Imported' the image of the apple onto it.

After that, I dragged the image of the Apple on top of the video clip and cropped the apple to make sure it was the same length as my video. I then clicked on the 'Motion' tab and cropped some parts of the video image to make sure it was the same size as the image of the apple. I then clicked on 'Toggle Clip Overlays' at the bottom to lower the capacity so that I could match up my video clip to the apple.


I then clicked on 'Effects', 'Video Filters', 'Matte', and 'Mask Shape'. I clicked on the apple and went to the 'Filters' tab and clicked on the 'Oval' shape. I then clicked on 'Invert' and used the 'Horizontal' and 'Vertical Scale' to make the circle the same size as my eye.
I also clicked on the 'Center' button to make the size right.
I then clicked on the side where it says 'Mask Shape' and I copied and pasted that part so that I could do the other eye the same. I copied and pasted again and done the same thing for my mouth.

Once that was done, I went to 'Effects', 'Video Filters', 'Matte' and 'Mask Feather'. I copied and pasted again and where it says 'Soft', I made it '48'. After that, I clicked on 'Effects', 'Video Filters', 'Image Control', and 'Tint'. I then clicked on the 'Filters' tab then the 'Eye Drop', then clicked on the apple and it got the right green colour for it.

After all of that, 
'Rendered' everything and clicked on 'File', then 'Exported' it as a 'QuickTime' movie then to put it on 'Youtube'I didn't realise that I didn't crop out everything at the bottom though.
