  Changing Background (I’m not sure what the name of the effect is)

  Anyone know how to do that one effect where an obstacle (like a or or something) opens up and there’s a completely different background behind it? For example, a car door opens but you see the interior of a different car. Thanks

  What you’ve described involves some basic compositing techniques. Such as using an animated mask on the outer layer to reveal the other layer below. Making it work and look good is a different matter entirely, that will depend more on what exactly you’re doing.
