Effects

Open a video clip in a new composition. Go to Effects >> Stylize >> Fine Edges. Create a new layer and add the effect Drop Shadow. play with this until you find the look that you like. On this layer, go to Layer >> Mask >> New mask  then, change the mask shape to Elipse. You should be able to see the layer with the effect underneath. On the same layer, use Effect >> Colour Correction >> Hue/Saturation and set keyframes to the layer and make the hue change. As you play the clip, it should make the image in the mask change colours. you can add text over the top as you would in Premier by using Layer >> New >> Solid. to Add the text, use Effect >> Text >> Basic Text and write what nou like. the text can be changed in the same way you would for Photoshop or Premier.
