Good job, Robbert-Jan. Impressive.

Robbert-Jan,

Beautifully designed and realized and complex achievement… Thank you.

I will just have to devise a way to use this effect on a documentary I am making (with credit to you)–it could be effective for creating a self-reflexive visual texture.

Thanks again.
Eli

Thank you Eli,

I’m feeling honoured and I’m curious to see your result.
A year ago I was making a small documentary for a WWII-resistance museum in Amsterdam and I could use some old photographs from the person the documentary was about. It was then that I made this Photo Album animation in After Effects. With the introduction of Motion 5 and FCPX I realised that maybe it would be possible to turn it into a FCPX effect. It took me a few days to figure it out but I also learned a lot about the program. I think it is really powerful and giving it away for free is my way of saying thanks to all people sharing their knowledge on this and other forums. I learned so much from these forums the past years.
So I’m glad you can use it in your work.

Kind regards,
