    I have an project where i want to make footage look like a comic book. with the half tone dots and posterized look with some interesting line work. any tips or suggestions would be great! I have the concept of how to do it, but am hoping someone may have done this before and can lead me in the right direction

    Hi Jayo,
    there are various ways of doing this within AE, …but if you’ve got Photoshop kicking round, maybe try one of the sketch style photoshop actions that are floating around (get it to batch process a folder of still sequences), …theres a quite good comicbook one which i have linked below (I found it linked from the adobe studio website):

    The link shows you the steps they used to get their look, …sure its not perfect, but for minimum fuss its not too bad a technique.

    Goodluck!

    Andrew
