Looking For An After Effects Tutorial for Burning An Image
Hello All,
Forgive me if I’m posting this in the wrong spot but I figured this was my best bet. I recently watched a video tutorial on After Effects and the opening had shown a book opening to reveal what I believe to remember to be text that was burned on to reveal it. If anyone can help me find it I would greatly appreciate it. If anyone can tell me how to take an image (actually a yin yang symbol) and have it slowly burn onto a wall I would greatly appreciate that as well.Thanks,

Generally one would start by changing the layer’s transfer mode to color burn or something similar (play around with this), and keyframing the opacity from 0 to 100 percent. If the background moves you should parent the text to the background (unless the background is a pre-rendered video file, in which case you’d have to track it).

Thanks Grant,
I am already using classic color burn on the image and I have C&P the position of my BG wall to the image so those two are sticking together throughout the clip. I tried using the burn and burnt film plug-in to have the image burn onto the BG as the camera gets closer to the wall but it’s still not gettting me what I want. I will continue to fiddle with it and once again I appreciate your help.Thanks,
Josh M
