Animatte tutorial
Hello
Could someone recommend a tutorial [text or video] for using the Animatte effect? I want to blur out something and for some reason my brain freezes when I try to work out the effect.Thanks

First, I would suggest the paint effect, not animatte. Paint allows you to assign a blur, mosaic, etc. to your effect.
(Please keep in mind I’m writing this from memory…)
Apply the effect. Open the effect editor. Toward the middle of the editor, you’ll see a pulldown menu. Select whatever effect you’d like to see (mosaic, for example). On the right hand side, toward the bottom, you’ll see a square (and other shapes as well). Make sure you have the blue line sitting on the first key frame, and DESELECT THE LAST KEYFRAME (caps for emphasis – if you don’t , you’ll run into the annoyance of having the paint effect moving back toward the original location). Click (for our purposes) the square, click and drag on the record side monitor – it should show up as a mosaic. Now comes the tedious part – key framing.
Post if you need more help!
