  • AE CS5: Map a flat image to a curved TV?

    Posted by Don Stroud on September 22, 2015 at 3:41 pm

    Hi, everyone. I’ve got a situation where I have to key a regular 16:9 video onto one of those new curved flat-screen TVs. I am relatively new to AE, so everything I’ve tried so far hasn’t worked at all.

    Any ideas or tips or tricks or advice or HELP! would be greatly appreciated.

    Don

    My setup: Macbook Pro, OS X Yosemite, CS5.5

    Thanks for the warning, Dave, but I’ve already addressed that particular demon over the last few months. I’ve been toiling away on stuff since April, and so far, so good.

    I’m more concerned with the immediate dangers right in front of my face!!!… which are all these “we’ll fix it in post” requests I’m being handed.

    So… back to the topic at hand: anyone out there know how to map a flat rectangular video to a curved TV?
