Simulating CMYK Color
I have a print piece that I am trying to animate in After Effects. Obviously the blending modes won’t translate and I can’t seem to get a close “fake”. Because of what I am trying to do I cannot just flatten and change color modes in Photoshop.
Is there any plugin to simulate CMYK blending modes for AE?Thanks,

Hmm… Maybe you could save out the color channels of the cmyk file as black and white images, then use them as mattes in AE, applied to colored solids in ae. Set them to “color” mode, over an rgb version of the image, which you will need for the luminance. I dunno, just guessing here. Personally, I would just find some acceptable way of converting the image to RGB before importing.

walker effects has a plug in which allows for some CMYK functionality within AE. I couldn’t find a way of using it for a CMYK-centric thing I was doing, but maybe it’ll work for you.
If it doesn’t work then I ended up batch processing image sequences in PS as a last resort..
