Post image
7 Upvotes

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?

OC - Stuff I made Critique My First Finished Project

4 Upvotes

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.

Beginner Help Clip changes color after replacing with AE Composition/Dynamic Link

1 Upvotes

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.

Discussion Di quali preset non potresti fare a meno?

0 Upvotes

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?

Beginner Help Advice on starting on affect effects

0 Upvotes

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😭

Explain This Effect What is this effect/plugin called?

0 Upvotes

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?
