  • Color change during interpolation of frames

    Posted by Bornstar519 on January 22, 2007 at 10:35 pm

    I am trying to animate a Photoshop file in AE. It’s as simple as it gets, I simply set four different key frames and change the position property to move the image around the screen. The image itself is of a black and white checkerboard. But when I animate it, the checkerboard pattern is affected by some sort of shadow or blur effect. It goes from a checkerboard to a somewhat blurred checkerboard. My guess is (as a new AE user) that the interpolation creating the “in between” frames is affecting the image.

    How do I get rid of this effect and have AE simply interpolate motion without color compensation or any other unwanted artifact???

    Thanks!

    Regards,

    So to better describe this, I want the output video to look like the “Draft quality.”

    With quality set to draft, the in between frames looks like the original, just shifted by the amount i specify in the position property. With quality set to “Best” the in between frames are interpolated to have some blur (and in the case of an 8×8 pixel checkerboard, there is a 1 pixel thick border around each checker box as a shadow/blur).

    Thank you!

    I am totally new to AE, but I have been doing a tutorial–and I think you need to go under Animation in the menu bar, then select keyframe interpolation. Try it, couldn’t hurt!
