  • Four corner move

    Posted by John Wilson on December 2, 2008 at 1:50 am

    We are trying to create a transitional element by splitting the graphic into four pieces. The intent is fly them from all four corners and get them all to land to recreate the graphic. The next move is to reverse the process, fly off and reveal the next sequence. We are coming really close on the timing and positioning but cannot seem to get it exact. Is there a process that will keep us from pulling all of our hair out?

    Thanks,

    John And Coop

    I’m not sure I understand the question 100%, but did you duplicate the clip four times and create a mask to separate the image into 4 sections?

    We figured it out. We split the image into four sections and used the HUD to time out the moves. I was hoping that there was some sort of short cut that we could use other then eyeballing and jiggering.

    Thanks for responding. Still learning my way around motion. Each discovery opens up a lot of doors.
