In this video I teach you how to easily edit a sky replacement / change the sky and color grade / color correct your clips to change them from day to night! I show how to do it on Valorant gameplay footage, but you can use any gameplay or even standard camera footage for this effect for use in your montages and edits. Techniques like this are used by a variety of gaming montage creators like Connorjaiye, Ethos, Nowack, Ladiff and Frogling. This method is completely free and requires no additional plugins as you can use the standard edition of Adobe After Effects! These techniques can also be used for any kind of clips even in other games such as Fortnite, Counter Strike (CS:GO / CS2), Call of Duty, PUBG, Overwatch, Rainbow Six Siege (R6S) etc.
