Comic book effect
Hi,
I’m new to both the forum and After Effects and I’m looking for some help for a project I am doing.
I am trying to produce a video in the style of a comic book. I don’t want to stylize any of the video I am using but I want to present it in comic book cells with a moving camera. This is an example of what I am aiming for (with video rather stills):

It would be great if anyone had any tips of could point me in the direction of any tutorials.
Thanks for your help,
Tom. -

It’s fairly easy to do.
Create a comp the dimensions of a comic’s page.
Add a white solid or a paper texture.
Above them, create another solid(s). Mask off the panels. Add a stroke to your masks.
Place the video clips beneath the panels layer. Mask them to fit the panels or use the panels layer as a track matte.
Bring this comp into a new comp set to your final video dimensions.
Move and scale this comp or create a 3D camera to pan and scan across it. -
Thanks for your reply!
