Create Transparent Ghostly Effects with Mocha & Particle Illusion #halloween

It’s October, so you know what that means!?! Lots of spooktacular tutorials, of course!
Mary Poplin at Boris FX shows you how to create transparent ghostly effects. Because there was no clean plate shot, Mary had to create her own clean plate using the Remove Module in Mocha Pro. She used Photoshop to help with the process to remove the actress from the background. Then, with the help of Particle Illusion, the actress is transformed into a wispy, smoky ghost. Finally, she uses Sapphire Glow to create a transparent glow effect to give it that true spectral look.
Removing Objects for Creative Effects with Mocha & Particle Illusion
Boris FX Mocha Pro 2019
The latest release of Mocha Pro combines the features of Mocha Pro, as well as the Lumiere award-winning Mocha VR, into one all-encompassing plug-in. Plus, they’ve added lots of new features like GPU-accelerated object removal, new spline creation tools, a mocha essentials workspace and more.
Mocha Pro 2019 Highlights
Mocha Essentials Workspace: Simplifies the power of Mocha with an updated interface. For that reason, planar tracking easier to learn and faster than ever before.
