    Hi does anyone know how to do an inverse cornerpin in AE, so that for example, if you track the 4 corners of a tv screen, it applies the cornerpin effect in such a way that the 4 corners of the screen move to the 4 corners of the comp filling it completely.
    Help!

    Effect > Distort> CC Power Pin

    However, if the camera is moving (i.e, the TV Screen does not stay in the same spot), it’s not quite that simple.

    -You will first have to stabilize the footage

    – then you’ll probably want to precomp the video – though I don’t think you absolutely have to.

    – then you apply the power Pin to the nested comp.
