How Zach king Made his Viral Corn Video (After Effects)

After Effects, Masking, Zach King
The king of editing magic
Zach King is not someone I have to introduce anymore, we all know and love his work. He’s always on top of the trends so it only made sense his latest upload was corn related. In this video we can see that he warms up a cob of corn which eventually explodes into thousand popcorn pieces.
How to hide a cut
As said in the video the most important thing Zach King is really good at is hiding his cuts. To make it look like magic you cant see when he is using his editing trickery.
The easiest one is the match cut, here you cut from one shot to another but everything what is in that shot is lined up perfectly. Another easy one is the wipe cut. When you move your camera fast there is motion blur, this you can use to cut from one shot to another hiding the scene in the motionblur. Then we have the wipe by cut. With this one you mask in another shot by following a certain subject. A good example is someone walking past the screen.
Or you hide the cut by using overlays, adding explosions, flares and all the stuff to make the differences in shots less visible.
