  Prevent AE Objects from Moving

  Posted by Anton Reed on June 30, 2010 at 8:58 pm

  Hi all,

  I just had a quick question about preventing objects from moving in After Effects. It’s probably a very easy question but I can’t seem to find the specific answer to my question.

  I’m wondering how I would prevent an object (let’s say an image of a bullet hole) from moving as the video the image is in pans or moves for whatever reason? Is there an easy way to lock the position of the object even though the video moves?

  Thank you very much for any help.

  Ah, indeed. I for some reason had my thinking backwards. Thanks for that.
