    I have never seen the film so can you find an example online?

    But going from your explanation it sounds like you want to time remap your footage to stop and start where you want, then use another layer(s) to do your fancy bits. I can’t comment on how you might go about that without seeing the intro.

    Good god man! How long have you got? And how much like Rock N Rolla do you want it?

    In brief it’s built up of: Vector/vector like artwork (lots of it), 3D layers, particle effects, wipes, masks and colouring etc. The animation could be mainly taken care of within AE with the camera or by moving the layers in simple ways.

    It’s not necessarily complicated per se, but it’s going to be time consuming.

    [eddy lizi] “i want to create it from video and to add the effects only on one frame and than continue the video from the same point that i stopped”

    Go to the frame you want to freeze on, then split the layer [link]. Advance one frame, then split the layer again. You now have three layers — one before the freeze, one single frame for the freeze, then everything after the freeze.

    Select the single-frame layer, then freeze it (Layer > Time > Freeze Frame). You can now extend it however long you like and slide the rest of the layers back in time.

    You could also do this with time remapping [link].
