You can get halfway there with the card-wipe or card-dance filters and some clever shading, but it won’t have that subtle “waving in a breeze” look.

Well,

I just spent 20 minutes recreating this title using Card Dance.

Here’s what I got:

The actual movement of the cards isn’t too complicated. But since Card Dance doesn’t cast shadows I had to fake that.

Here’s the project file. It’s pretty straightforward, except for the faked shadows.

It’s a 7.0 project though…

It’d be awesome if you could throw up a tutorial on how you achieved that effect Barend. I would just download the AEP but don’t have 7.0 yet. How’d you achieve that? It looks really good!

Fantastic stuff. Thanks for taking the time. After Effects 7 has not been released in Australia yet. But as soon as I get my hands on one, I’ll check out the project file.
