Highlight Your Subject with Gaussian Blur

Use Gaussian blur in Premiere Pro to make your main subject stand out. This blur type softens the background, drawing the viewer's eye to the sharp, in-focus areas. It's great for interviews, product shots, or travel videos where you want to emphasize specific parts of the frame. With Spotlight FX, you can adjust the blur strength to get just the right amount of softness for your project.
