creating concave contact lens in AE
Hello
I need to create an animated (Sci-fi) contact lens that has a concave form while it’s on a finger and flattens out a bit when it’s placed in the eye.
I’m looking into 3D Warps by Zakwerks and FreeForm V2 by Mettle, i haven’t used either one, so if anyone has an experience with a similar task, what would work better for this effect?Currently i’m trying to avoid investing into 3rd party plug-ins, but getting rather silly results with Sperize and Corner pin plug-ins.
Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated
Set up: CS6, Win7 64bit, Nvidia Quadro 4000, 12Gb RAM

FreeForm V2 would be my first choice, but even better is FreeForm Pro. The ability to add a Reflection Map will enhance the effect in your situation.

Like the effects and designs.
I’ve made some effort putting together an article about concave lenses and it’s uses so it could be of intrest for those trying to design concave lenses in design software. Here is the concave lens article that I researched and wrote: https://zoom.camp/concave-lenses-optical-use-definitions/
