    Scrolling on ipad

    Posted by Stig Olsen on April 22, 2015 at 8:34 am

    Hi,

    I have a shot with a guy scrolling down on an ipad. Im supposed to comp in the screenshots from a website.
    How do I keyframe to get realistic movements when the finger is scrolling down?

    Best, Stig

    Thanks Dave, the roto and track part is taken care of.
    Its just that the scrolling has some characteristics that is not that easy to replicate.

    Are you trying to match the finger movement and “inertia” effect as the screen scrolls to a stop? What Dave’s suggesting is basically the best way to go about it. Are you familiar with the graph editor? I’d take some time to get to know it and really learn it, otherwise you might try a script like Keysmith that lets you plug in the numbers for influence and velocity, among other things.

    Still, learn the graph editor. It’s the bane of most motion designer’s existence. Once you get over that, you’ll enjoy keyframing in AE much more.
