    Hello all!
    I’m new here and new to After Effects. I need to recreate the “Speeding” effects that are used in The Fast and The Furious during the first race with Paul Walker & Vin Diesel. Any ideas?

    Hi Dylan,

    For those who haven’t seen the film, me included, it might be better if you describe exactly what you’re trying to achieve.

    The ‘stretching’ of the Bg and the car surface?

    You might want to try adding the liquify effect and animating the amount of distortion. Or use some kind of animating displacement map? For liquify, see videocopilot.net tutorial on ‘demon face’, and for displacement mapping, see the AE podcast here at CC.
