How to Animate Web Searches/Facebook browsing/etc. in After Effects
So I know the title of this post may be a bit confusing, but you have to see what I’m trying to do to answer this question.
Since I’m sure you’ve all seen it, I’ll just use the Kony 2012 video as a reference point: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Y4MnpzG5Sqc
The best example of what I’m trying to figure out how to do occurs from 03:56 – 04:33
There’s no way that this process is simple, but if anyone can point me to a good video tutorial that gets me going, what program I should be using, or even what this process/technique is called so that I can search more effectively, it would be much appreciated.
Thanks so much!
Ariel

I don’t know that you are going to find a tutorial on it. I recently had to do the same thing and I proceeded as follows…
1. I took 8 Screen shots of one page down scrolls on a feed.
2. Took all images and combined them in photoshop in a large tall document…I Animated the position in after effects of the scroll, and replaced a picture with a youtube looking video that was linked to the scrolling photoshop file. I animated a curser in AE to click on it, and zoomed into the location of the video.

I’ve also just faked it with illustrator files/photoshop files as in here: https://vimeo.com/30987194

hey man thanks a lot!
That makes a lot of sense I’ll definitely give it a shot. I checked out your Leap Year Project vid.. really good idea and really well executed! Best of luck! -
I’ll definitely give that a shot. Thanks a lot for taking the time.
Just a quick follow-up.. what screen capture app do you use?
I have iShowU HD.Let me know what works best for you, and thanks again!

I had the same issue. I would recommend using the firefox add on “Web2PDF” It basically takes any web page and turns it into an ultra high res PDF. You can then take it into photoshop and chop it up any way you want. I used it with this piece https://vimeo.com/42387031 from the 00:10:00 to 00:17:00 second mark. I believe the plugin is free. https://www.web2pdfconvert.com/pdf-button#cid1
