Video after effects template causing newb problems :-(
Hi from totally pitch black freezing York UK…
Hands up I’m a newb with limited after effects experience (but I have build comps before and followed lynda.com training) which will probably explain why I’m running into early trouble with a slideshow Ive just downloaded from video hive @ https://videohive.net/item/wedding-photos-slideshow/4565295
The above link illustrates my problem but here goes…
I want to drop my pictures into the frames but I just cant get it to fit the perspective of the frames. Is there a technique I could follow? I really hope each picture does not have to be individually re aligned that could cause me to hammer the coffee machine.
Well heres hoping someone takes sympathy on a newb who has wondered into the after effects jungle with no previous tours of duty experience 😉
Thanks,
David -

Unless your photos are the exact size as the frame compositions, you will likely have to adjust each one in the frame.
Or maybe you want a horizontal frame where a vertical one is? In that case, duplicate a horizontal frame in the project window and option+drag it too replace a vertical one in your timeline. You’ll likely have to move it a little to get it looking right, but it should get you close.
Templates often need more adjustment than we anticipate. If only it were so easy. 😉

Also, you are opening the photo comps, right? Don’t replace them with a photo; double click it and add your photo in the precomposition.
