What I did:
Today, I learned how to mask in Sony Vegas. Masking is used to separate an image from the background so if you have someone standing in front of a house, you can mask them and have the same image of the person in front of a beach or something. In my case, I took a picture of a warlock in Destiny and cropped out the background to make it look like he was standing in front of beach/ocean area.
These are the steps:
1. First, I loaded in the picture to the composition.
2. Next, I went to "event pan/crop" and clicked the mask button on bottom left.
What I learned:
Today, I learned some new things about Sony Vegas. I learned that you can mask in it like you can in Photoshop. In Photoshop, it's obvious that masking would be a thing because it has everything to do with pictures. However, Sony Vegas can also remove backdrops off photos by masking. I also learned that you need to connect the all the dots when you're masking to have the background be removed. This process took me a while because I kept messing up and I finally figured out what I was doing wrong and that was that I wasn't connecting the dots. I also learned that if the dots are too close together while anchoring, it will start another layer of dots so that also messed me up because I couldn't connect them to the first layer thus having me restart multiple times. Finally, I learned that you need to be using the anchoring tool to do this or it won't work. The anchoring tool is the tool that creates the dots so you can mask.
What I plan to learn tomorrow:
Tomorrow, I plan to continue with my English Project and my goal for tomorrow's class is to create the character known as Kenan. Kenan is one of the main protagonists like Arrow and Dragan and he is who I'm creating tomorrow. The thing I plan to learn is how to skew. If I'm just creating a character, there is nothing to learn because I've already done that so I plan to learn about skewing just like I learned about warping. If I can't learn to skew, then I plan to learn something else tomorrow.

These are the steps:
1. First, I loaded in the picture to the composition.
3. Then, I learned how to mask, by clicking around with the anchor tool.
4. Finally, I added the background. I dragged it to layer that was under the warlock so it would appear.
