  • bubble effect – magnify glass

    Posted by Tielman Dewaele on September 7, 2008 at 4:07 pm

    Hey,

    I am making a bubble animation.
    I made some partical bubbles for the background.
    The foreground bubbles have to come from down to middle of the screen.
    Inside those bubbles are letters(16)
    To create a magnify effect, i watched the tutorial from Ahron.
    The BG bubbles are precomped.
    But for the letter-bubbles i need to animate it manual instead of using a partical system.

    My question is how can make an magnifying glass effect on each letter-bubble, that effect that background?
    I tried to do make for each bubble an seperate adjustment layer and animate the position. It works but the render time is huge and AE crashes all the time.

    Is there an other way for this effect?

    Thx

    Break up your project into seperate renders. For example, render the background seperately. Import it and then render the foreground bubbles. and if that breaks, then render the letters in groups of four – impor and then compile/composite them in a ‘final’ composition.
