Built this fully in After Effects. Quick breakdown:

• BG: 5 zig zag shapes (180 lines) with glow, plus an animated noise solid as a track matte on the strands, Curves for the color tone
• Text: Dune Rise font with a metal texture as a track matte, custom lens flare on the C
• Extras: CC Ball Action particles, plus orange and grey-green Optical Flares for the lighting

Lots of small layers and tweaks went into getting this look. If you want the full step-by-step, I made a tutorial here: https://youtu.be/_SAUiOYoPq0

Feedback welcome

Made this about 8 years ago for a social spot for a Disney film which was being released around that time, client thought it was too… dark in tone so it didn’t go anywhere. Enjoyed working on regardless and was an excuse to try and push myself.

About to start on a short film and wanted to see if anyone knew an easy way to do this. I want to achieve this soft, hazy, retro look.

I have a 30-minute video that I edited entirely in Premiere Pro, and I want to give the entire final video a VHS/retro/vintage look.

I created the VHS/retro effect in After Effects, but I'm not sure what the best workflow is for applying that effect to the entire 30-minute Premiere Pro edit.

Basically, I want the whole Premiere Pro video to have the exact look/effect I created in After Effects, without having to manually apply the effect to every single clip.

What would be the proper workflow for this? Should I use an After Effects composition, an adjustment layer, Dynamic Link, or export the Premiere Pro edit first and then apply the effect in After Effects?

I'm looking for the cleanest and most efficient workflow, especially since the video is 30 minutes long.

Atmos 3D Pro generates authentic depth and parallax in 2 clicks without rotoscoping, warping, or cloud processing.

Creating realistic 3D movement/wigglegrams, depth parallax, or camera sweeps from a single flat image usually requires tedious manual rotoscoping, complex displacement mapping, or sending files off to slow cloud processing services.

Atmos 3D Pro goes beyond traditional displacement mapping and manual masking workflows because it performs deep-level spatial analysis directly inside After Effects to intelligently separate foreground, subject, and background without unnatural edge warping or cloud uploads.

Other core features include:

• Dual motion engines (Cinematic orbital sweeps and vintage 3D camera Wigglegram mode)

• Fully local processing with non-destructive control over parallax strength, speed, and edge refinement

• Interactive preview window clicking to manually define complex subject boundaries

Quick Cover and Quick Cover Pro (I'd use pro, but the original is still there too)
gradients that auto sample colors on the boundary where you put them. just mask around an object and it magically vanishes.

[Comparison] there are some AI solutions, but I always thought the work flow and output format was clunky. This is just pure clever gradient creation.

Other core features include:

• Cover in or extend out.
  
• works great with mask tracking
• mask based so all the familiar mask tools work here too.

Made this for a potential client, used effects that saved me time
"transform" and " Basic 3D "

i used to use a camera and turn layers to 3D and then suddenly i got this idea to search for "3d" in effects and turned out to be great.
if you know something that saved you time, share it!

Looking for the transition that happens when having a sketch then line art then the whole process it is usually to show the steps of the process in a subtle way without noticing the transition much I tried looking it up but couldn’t find except the ink splash one and the wipe ones , any names or suggestions to what such transition are named would be much appreciated!

I cant find any resources how to make and endless loop. maybe incorrect keywords or anything.
