    Turbo Squid has plenty of free textures. If i need a certain look I’ll find a couple textures via google with elements of what i need and photoshop them. The 15 or so min it takes to make my own usually saves more time than searching through texture libraries for something specific.

    Hi Bob

  • One way to understand this is to realize that it’s not that “an adjustment layer affects all layers beneath it”, even though that’s what people tend to say.

    that’s also what the adobe website says on the link you provided Todd…

    ‘Because effects on adjustment layers apply to all layers beneath them’

    granted that later there’s a note…

    Note: A more accurate description is that the adjustment layer applies the effect to the composite created from all layers below the adjustment layer in the layer stacking order.

    but that could partially explain this misconception. your post certainly clears that up though – thanks!

  • yep, agree with Craig – 2 comp viewers would be the solution. my understanding is adjustment layers will affect everything below.

    You could duplicate the text layer, put that above the adjustment layer and use that as a matte for the adjustment layer but the effects will only work within the confines of that matte. so something like the warp effect wont produce the result you want.

    you could also apply the effects directly to the text layer, then link various parameters of the effects to a slider via an expression. then you can use the slider to adjust the effects globally.

    you probably already know this Eugene but when you use 2 comp viewers you can lock one comp viewer so you can work in a precomp downstream and view the result higher in the hierarchy.

    sounds like you’re well aware of this anyway but i’ve attached a screen grab of an example just in case…

    On the timeline…

    Duplicate the layer with the tracking data effects etc(the less saturated one in your case)

    Highlight the duplicated layer

    Then go to the project window

    Select the footage item you want to add effects to (the more saturated one in your case)

    Hold down the alt key and drag the footage from the project window to the timeline.

    that should do it

    if she moves significantly rotoscoping will of course be needed but that wasn’t the question.

    Stu, for the first clip you could shoot the scene at a high resolution – 4K for example

    then track/stabilise the guitar so that the scene rotates and the guitar remains stationary.

    you’d have to shoot it wide enough so that when the scene rotates the edges of the frame don’t show at the corners

    high shutter speed would be advisable so you minimise motion blur on the part of the image you’re stabilising, in this example the guitar.

    for rocknrolla looks like they used a variety of techniques but my guess is primarily something like a doggicam bodymount.

    Aza, have you tried using Align? Open the align window

    Window/Align

    select the layers

    in the align window select the alignment icon that corresponds to the type of layer distribution you need.
