Re: How to highlight or single out someone on screen?

You can do it in FCP. Duplicate the clip with the person you want to highlight and place it above the original clip. Add a Mask Shape filter to the duplicate clip (Effects/Video Filters/Matte/Mask Shape). Reduce the opacity of the bottom clip, it'll help you see the mask and the amount is up to you based on how much you want to highlight your subject. In the Mask Shape filter, adjust the shape and size to what you need and use the Center crosshair to center the mask on your subject. Keyframe for motion as needed.
