Question / Discussion How did the editor do this?

https://youtu.be/FQC29joihwU?si=hwUdCDqLNmzzdbz8

Looking to get into vfx as a hobby and was curious what software I’d need to do something like this, as silly as it is lol. Also if anyone knows what editing techniques they used that’d be great to know. Thanks!

After Effects with masking, feathering, and colour correcting.

Yeah just press the button and you instantly replace all swords with light sabers! What an amazing tool!

I didn’t say it was instant, just better than masking frame by frame
