  • You can create the title effect in Daybreakers, adobe after effects cs4, please take this one as cha

    IM considering Adobe After Effects CS4 and I found the title of the film DAYBREAKER (2009) a very interesting to create effect, I hope you can give me some tutorials on how to do it... Please! more power, NOTES: im using adobe after effects cs4

    From what I've seen on the trailer for this film, titles are a modified version of George flowing Peolvoy title tutorial posted on Creative Cow about 10 years ago. You can find the tutorial here.

    The effect on the type of glass can be reproduced using layer effects in Photoshop and / or then apply the layer effects to your text layer directly in AE. You will find a lot of these tutorials by doing a simple search on Google for glass Photoshop text.

    There is not a single click, a plugin solution, but if you integrate the effects of layer, a card of displacement, a compound blur and keyframes for position a little + blur of movement, you should be able to reproduce the effect exactly. Tutorial of George should help you get started. If I remember correctly the project files were for AE 4.1 so they probably will not open in CS4.

    Good luck

  • I did a shape layer, and it moves in After Effects CS4.

    Hello

    I'm working on a project that has a lot of masks and shape layers to frame masks in After Effects CS4. For example the timeline that I am focusing is 3 seconds long; There is 2 keyframes in the shape layer (vertical rectangle), key frames are 3 seconds gap and are at the same position (511.1,89.5). If I go to the beginning of the seconds 3 press the space bar and let him play for some reason any moves the rectangle from left to right. Although keyframes aren't there, he is moving-even thought the last keyframe to the left is the same as the next keyframe law - as the first screenshot

    The best solution, I came up with for this is to copy and paste keyframes so that there is a keyframe for each frame within 3 seconds, then I get a schedule like the second screen shot.

    Is there something I could use where I could select 2 identical keys seconds out and make the form remain in the same spot with them into the second screenshot? It is speed and things happen quickly in this case isn't it?

    I also had an another question-are there - it a shortcut to insert a keyframe in the timeline? I found a page with all the shortcuts and couldn't find this one should be.

    Thanks guys, you have been life savers in the past!pic 1.pngpic 2.png

    As keyboard shortcuts you go to hold down the option/alt key and the keyboard shortcut ' Show/Hide properties ' to switch between adding and removing keyframes.  Adobe does not have the freedom to document them all in their page keyboard shortcuts, so here goes:

    Option + P: Position keyframe

    Option + R: Rotation keyframe (adds the keyframe at all values of rotation and orientation if the layer is 3D)

    Option + S: Scale keyframe

    Option + A: keyframe Anchor Point

    Option-T: Opacity keyframe (adding a keyframe of intensity if the layer is a 3D light)

    Option + M: Keyframe mask path

    Option + F: Mask Feather keyframe

    Option + L: Levels Audio keyframe

    * This does that for the single letter shortcuts - double letters do not work (i.e. TT for the opacity of the mask, RR for the time remapping, etc.).

    * Option + shift + the letter will work too which is good if you have reconfigured the Option + letter for other things such as throwing scripts - that I have.

    On the "boomerang" effect, I highly recommend you go to your preferences > "Général" tab and turn on 'by default spatial interpolation to linear', then you can manually add the Bezier handles to your keyframes in the composition Viewer if need be.

  • Can Adobe do an After Effects just for 32 bit

    I have a 32-bit and I was wondering if Adobe could make a 32-bit version of After Effects. I know that After Effects cs4 work for 32, but I want to most recent.

    AE needs a lot of RAM to work. 32-bit operating systems cannot access more than 4 GB of memory total system. This means that, if you have a tiny GPU has only 512 MB of video memory on this subject and that your computer has 4 GB of RAM installed, your system see about 3.5 GB of RAM.

    AE needs 4 GB of RAM minimum to run (I think 8 GB is the minimum to use actually reasonably).

    It is impossible to make a 32-bit version unless they created a whole new piece of software that could live with less than 4 GB of RAM. And it would go really slowly and nobody likes him. So, as Rick says, you are flat out of luck unless you upgrade. It's pretty cheap (or free) to build a 64-bit operating system, so, you know, you can do it.

  • Hotlinks for first and After Effects CS4 with titles

    I created a Rolling title in Premiere Pro CS4.  I would like to create a dynamic link to get back the title in After Effects CS4 to add effects that appear in the first.  I watched a few video tutorials on Dynamic Link and read the documentation and tried a variety of permutations but can't seem to get there.

    Also saw something in these forums about the problems using dynamic links with titles (as opposed to regular pliers?)

    And something about the Premiere and After Effects projects being saved together? in the same folder - is that correct?

    So, could someone explain to me if this is possible and the right way to do it?

    Thank you

    First titles are usually not supported æ as separate entities, since they do not exist as such. Only the titles added to a timeline of the Organization will be present themselves, but can renderings and merged with the background. So, essentially, that it is not the best of ideas to create even titles in first in such a scenario - you can only end up seeing a ton of solids in the placeholder or a completely black canvas. If this is the case, make the titles to separate TIFF or PSD with adequate transparency. And Yes, the projects must be saved in the same location relative to avoid lack of sequences and make mistakes...

  • Document text for After effect Cs4

    I never opened the After Effects CS4, but it's amazing...

    For the start, want to try Animatin text but could not created the text document.

    When I created the text in Photoshop and import to After Effects, then it will show "transform" not "text".

    How can I create the document text for After Effects...?

    Thanks for reading and the little help please

    Creating text in legacy is really easy.

    Create a new publication

    Go to layer > new > text.

    Write what you want.

    You can animate text by using transformation options, or you can apply the animation presets that are really cool.

  • Effects of lightsaber using the dynamic link with Premiere pro and After Effects CS4

    Hi all

    I'm working on a video project and that you want to add a lightsaber effect, but a layer which is suppose to be transparent isn't using dynamic links.

    I shot the video in my head, and everything else hidden.  I made a flash body to put my head on.  Now I know how to make a lightsaber in After Effects CS4. (starting with comp 1 with videos making a white solid layer, and then using the tool pen to make the sword.  Then copy the sequences video and place it in comp 2.  Then to return to comp 1 and remove the video sequences. then on comp 1 making a SOLID BLACK LAYER {that's the problem} and place it under the layer of white.  Then duplicate the white layer 3 times.  Changing each feather white layer mask to make the glow.  so going to comp 2 and take the 1 model and her nest to model 2...  Then change the blending mode of the model nested 1 to the screen.

    The main timeline in Premiere Pro CS4 and I have the video layer 1 to Photoshop file which is pink and the background of this project.  I made a dynamic link to After Effects and copied and pasted the video images and flash to the comp.  Here, I made the lightsaber.

    That is the problem.  The model of dynamic links with video, flash and the lightsaber will not show my pink background in Premiere Pro shows him my video, flash and lightsaber but the background is black.  In case of problems, I noticed if I turn off the LAYER BLACK for the lightsaber effect, I see my pink background with video and flash sequences and the glow of sabre, but my blue lightsaber color will not appear.

    Do more problems I set photoshop to lightsaber model file and I see the video, the flash, the lightsaber but I think because the background is pink I don't get a color glow to the sword (vilot color)

    If the layer of black is supposed to be transparent, so why can't see my background in Premiere Pro using dynamic links?

    appreciate any help I can get,

    Thanks in advance.

    Mr. PETER K

    P. S. - one-way I kinda had this work was I took one of the masks of white and copied and pasted layers in nested layer comp 1.  Adjusted to the width of the mask and the pen and I got a glow of blue ok.  You just can't mask width too because it shows a lot of black.  It is not as good as I want and I hope someone can help...

    Thank you again...

    Well, blend modes don't create transparency, so the behavior is correct - because technically, the background of the model is ignored for the mix of operations, in areas where there are no content below for the mix, only the layer of black color is used. You create transparency good, real luminance based on unmultiplying, that can be done with the Knoll Unmult plugin Red Giant Software (free) or the effect of changing the channel of the AE monitoring bey a color delete effect.

    Also, I heard that you are limited to download After Effects on only 2 computers. This rule applies for all older versions of After Effects or it is just limited to CC and CS6?
