  • Need help trying to create effect!

    Posted by Steffles on August 18, 2007 at 1:43 pm

    Hey, sorry this is a first time post and I was wondering if you could help! I’m creating a short film with acrobatic planes, one is coming from left to right of the screen but what I want it to do is freeze the image of the plane as it starts a manouver then freeze the next key point so they all appear on screen together. Does any of that make sense? I’d like them to be sort of ‘boxed in’ with a colour tint inside the box. I tried using masks but I’m still pretty new to After Effects! Thank you!

    No idea what you'[re talking about.
    Acrobatic airplanes are aerobatic. Freezing motion is easy but are these real planes or art objects? Big differnce around here.
    Drawing boxes is easy, tinting them is, too. Get out the manual and run the tutorials.

    Try the basic AE forum but you’re still oing to need to post a sketch.

    This is my standard sigfile so do not take it personally: “For crying out loud, read the freakin’ manual.”
