    I want to take a still and make it look like it is reflected on a shiny metal surface similar to the polished metal look of a mercedes benz emblem (but any special shape just a flat metal surface). Can you do this in AE Standard?

    Use Light Transmission for your layer to create the reflection and then mess about with the background layer’s properties for accepting light.
