  • Replacing footage in a template layer

    Posted by Gary Woloszyn on August 23, 2014 at 6:21 pm

    I use Motion so I am a bit of a newbie to After Effects…

    I want to reuse a complex scene with camera movement, lights, keyframes, etc. from a template. Then I want to change the image in that scene.

    Do I make a new layer, copy and paste the old layer, then replace the footage using ALT+drag?

    Thanks much

    if you in “project” rightclick on the footage you want to change you can choose “replace” and select the file you want
