Rotoscoping in Premiere Elements?

I thought I saw a tutorial on TFN about rotoscoping Premiere Pro, and I was wondering if you could do that in Elements, or is it too scaled down?

EDIT: Found it here.

I'm not sure if "Premiere Filmstrip" is the same thing as Premiere Pro or another program, or if they're just talking about a part of the program...

PS: And if I get a trial of premiere, will it leave an "image" on my hard drive when I uninstall it?

If I got the student version would it conflict with it?

(I mention because I know some programs do leave "imprints" on your hard drive so you can't keep getting free trials and I was wondering if getting the trial and then getting the student version would conflict with it...)

 

filmstrip is a file, not a program. What a film strip is, is a collection of all the frames of the movie seperated into their individual frames like pictures. Further more, I don't think you can rotoscope in premiere. You have to export the filmstrip to photoshop, or do the effects in After Effects.

 

There actually is a way using the Titler feature, and its not too difficult as as far as the rotoscoping goes as it is simple frame by frame rotoscoping, but I have never gotten the glow quite right (not that I spent much time on it) and you don't have as much control over lightsaber shape as you do in After Effects. But if someone wanted to spend some time figuring out the glow, i'm sure it can be done in Premiere without Photoshop.

Wrigley videos has some good tutorials on how to use the titler and keyframes in Premiere, which can be adapted to lightsabers.
