    Looks like simple Mesh Warps on both layers and a tastefully designed dissolve.
    The trick with these types of moves is matching up the clips so they sort of suggest good distortion effects either by position of similar content or by having similar metaphors. The heads or hands are sort of in the same place, a computer screen can turn into a book, a steering wheel can turn into bike handlebars, a door can turn into a blackboard.

    Hey there,

    There are several plugins that makes this possible for NLE programs(not AE).
    If you use motion or FCP aswell, you should check for CHV Morph FX on google.
    It easy to use in motion and fcp.

    Thanks alot for all of your help and the swift responses. I will look into all of your suggestions.

    I have one more, is there a morphing plugin for AE CS3 instead of using the Mesh Warp? If not, the Mesh Warp should work fine.

    Thanks again,
    Kevin

    You might try googling “plugin central” I don’t know if it’s stilla ctive.
    There’s also the AE Portal and there used to be the AE Freemart. For the advetnurous there’s AE enhancers that helps you write your own effects and scripts. Creeps me out.
