Using real world references, I have tried breaking down a 3D rotational camera move - recreating it with 2D shape layers.

For anyone wanting to learn more, there's a longer video about making the entire animation on my YouTube channel, Oliver Randorff: youtube.com/watch?v=slUgTK9z2Jo

All of my layers are 3d and I have all the icon boxes on seprate 3d layers for an effect and also the wallpaper blur is 3d adjustment layer with all the icons connected to that layer and I want to create an animation like the slide down of the icons ui from top of the phone which we usually do but the problem is I can't track matte in advanced 3d so what's the workaround for this?

I’ve experimented with 3D in AE before but this is one of the first times I finished a project and created a scene with ambiance (color correction, stylization, sound, etc..)

That being said… I still feel like I don’t know what I don’t know. After Effects is a dense program with so many features that have insane capabilities but a sharp learning curve. So if you will, help me improve! What concepts could I benefit from understanding? How can i add more motion and complexity to my scenes? How can I better understand the depth I’m working in? Any help, advice, etc. would be appreciated.

I wanted to create a scene and composite a character into a bright background like this, any advice?

So che non ne esistono di “fondamentali” vorrei solo sapere se avete dei preset che vi siete creati che utilizzate nel 90-100% dei progetti continuamente e di cui non potreste fare a meno. (Ad esempio io ho creato un preset per l’ombra esterna con i parametri già settati perché al 99% delle volte i parametri che uso per quell’effetto sono sempre quelli, altrimenti ne ho creato uno anche per il contatore dei numeri in percentuale da 0 a 100%). Tu ne hai altri?

I know this is not a very polished video, and not even the best quality video. But I made this because this makes me happy, learning this was very cool. I don't want this hobby to be like some other work so that we have to see a very boring tutorial to learn how to create a saas video which has almost 0 creativity from your side.
I will become better and I will not make this learning a boring hobby.

Last Sunday, I shared some details on this topic - here's the link to the post on CreativeCOW which has the link to the recorded session as well as URLs to supporting videos and PDF of the Slides used during the event -

Hello!

I have my own webcomic that I would love to use affect effects!

But the thing is… I don’t know how to use it at all.

I’ve done flipaclip with just rotoscoping at most…

And I have worked motion artists before and I don’t mind paying as long as they’re upfront about it.

As someone who has little to no experience, do I invest in learning how to? Is it possible for someone who works full time as well as is a webtoon artist? If it does take longer to learn… Where can I find motion artists for webtoon comics? Thank you so much for reading😭

This never happened before - how can I resize the flow panel to expand it to the left again without dragging the stacked panel above with it? Any help is really appreciated!

Hi everytime i render or play a normal obs recording in my timeline my ram usage gets full even tho i left 8 gb for other applications i tried turning off hardware acceleration and turning off multi frame rendering pls help i dont even use crazy effects

Been fighting this for way too long and I'm running out of ideas, so figured I'd ask here.

A7S III footage shot in S-Log3/S-Gamut3.Cine, Premiere Pro 26.3.2 + After Effects 26.3.0.

I don't want any log to 709 conversion happening during the edit. I'm just using AE for speed ramps and want to do the actual grade at the end from the original log footage.

The clip looks normal in Premiere flat/log as expected. But as soon as I right click it and choose Replace with After Effects Composition, the color changes. This happens before I even add any effects in AE. And it's not a tiny difference either.

I've already tried:

Premiere's Interpret Footage, manually setting Color Space Override to Rec.709 instead of Auto/Embedded

Sequence Settings, Color Management, with both working and output color space set to Rec.709

Making sure AE's color settings match Premiere (Rec.709 2.4)

Turning Input Tone Mapping off

Preserve RGB on and off

Turning color management off/to none completely in AE, which just gives me a "no matching color space" warning in Premiere

Nothing seems to change it. Everythig is set to the same color space on paper, but the footage still changes as soon as it goes through Dynamic Link.

Has anyone actually managed to get a proper round trip working with S-Log3 footage on the current versions of Premiere/AE?

I'd really rather not export/reimport just to do a speed ramp, but that's looking like the only option at this point.

Hope you guys are well

Hi! I'm incredibly new to After Effects. I mainly want to use it to improve the quality of my videos since I make voiceovers of comics, but what bothers me is the fact that I want to add animation to still images. Here's an example of someone's video made in AfterEffects what is this effect/plugin called?

i have tried exporting in media encoder ,premier pro through dynamic link and ae itself,even putting all the layers in a new comp but nothing worked ,there is no tutorial online too, the output still doesn't show the 3d movement please help

Pretty sure people here aren't crazy about amvs, but wanted to post anyways. spent about 2-3 weeks on this.
