    im working on an add for a local custom shop. like west coast customs. they want an mograph style add.
    it will consist of footage of every day cars that they have done.
    they have a good pin stripe guy and i am doing an animated pinstripe for part of the add.
    here is a quick test i did to see how well it works.
    any feedback would be great.

    Hi,

    IMHO I think you need to use a better car shot, at least one without dents.
    Also the pinstripe build is out of perspective a bit. It does seem to build
    nicely though.

    yeah the car shot sucked. i pulled it off google for the test. when you say it grows out of perspective do you mean it should lay a bit flatter?

    Hi John,

    Carl is right; You should work on the perspective. Apply “Corner Pin” to the lines reveal layer and try to adjust this way your design to the image of your car. The way you shoot the cars is important. In other words shoot frontal to avoid the perspective distortions and if you can don’t use a wide angle lens.
    Also make sure you are previewing your work on a video monitor and that your lines are at least 2 pixel wide to avoid flicker.

    Salut.
    Serge
