Would I need to split the clip in AE doing ctrl + shift + D and then apply the invert effect? If so, then what would I do after that? or is that all?

I know that but figured maybe you or someone else has worked with Media Composer before. So can you make the cut in After Effects and then apply the invert? Or am I just better off importing the exact piece of the clip I want inverted from my editing software into AE, make the effect and then re-import back into my software and doing it that way?

I’ve never used AE before so I don’t really know what it can and can’t do, however, for this project I’m doing I’ll finally be using it.

Thank you for taking the time to answer my questions.

Ok so then I would just place an “add edit” where I want the invert to start on the clip?

Hey George,

Thanks for the reply but wouldn’t the “invert” effect just be applied to the entire clip vs. just a specific part of the clip I want? Or is there a setting or transition feature that will let me invert whichever section of the clip I want inverted?

As you can see in the video the inverted effect is done to only the tail end of the clip which makes me think it could be a custom dissolve/transition but I’m not 100% sure. That’s the only way I can think of that would enable to get only the tail end of the clip inverted but I have no idea if that’s what this person did to achieve this effect or if it’s something different. Either way I don’t know how to do it and hopefully someone could point me in the right direction.
