    Hey everyone,
    I was just watching the Iron Man trailer and I noticed that when he is in the suit, there are curved holograms that rotate around his head. Is this possible in after effects? If so how? If not, what program would you use to achieve this effect?

    Thank You,
    Jack Simmons

    I just looked at the trailer, and it looks like a basic animated comp with some transparency, using layer add mode or something like that, and maybe a bit of lens flare to add to the glassy look.

    The little bit of curving could be done with cc-cylinder or cc-sphere but for something that simple, more likely just a punch effect. Should be pretty basic, really…
