Ive tried all the different alpha/luma modes and it none of them work 🙁 I found a really really long winded way where I import a project that has successful luma mattes in and then copy the compositions into my current project and use them, but its just so bizarre. Theres not really anyway I can send the files I would have thought they are too big 🙁

Thanks for your help tho!

Hi there

Well basically, I really dont know whats wrong. Ive actually imported a composition where I know the luma matte works fine, then copied and pasted the two layers into a new composition and the same still happens! It makes absolutely no sense at all. Its like in one composition they are fine and in the other comlpetley the opposite. I can email the project but i have a feeling itd be massive casue of the size of the video….?

cheers

Yeah I know, I managed to use a luma matte to get the projected look and then applied posterize time to give it that extra edge, its all good 😉 Thanks guys

Hi there

Its because I need to pan along it, my animation is lots of long panning shots basically. That is the problem!

Cheers

Hey Steve

Thanks for your help, much appreciated, I tried what you said and the quality seems to be quite poor when I bring down to PAL size so im just gonna live with long render times I think, thats what Ive been doing up til now, just wish there was a quicker way! I dont understand why when I bring the image size down in AE the quality is still good but in photoshop when i make the image size smaller the quality is poor. I guess less pixels.

Thanks again!

hi there

I scaled it down in AE, so does it not help scaling it down in AE because the project is about 3000×500 pixels..would that be the reason I guess? I just dont want to loose the quality of it, but I guess if I save another copy of it for use in AE thatd be better?

Thanks for your help
