    3D animating the hand instead of shooting it comes to mind as an “easier” solution. That way you can create the screen from a semi-transparent material. The exact meaning of “easier” in that sentence depends on your experience with such.

  • Hi Liam,

    I don’t recall in detail what I did there, but I dug out the file for you to investigate, that should get you started.

    13191_stardustobjcontainer.zip

    You may need to point Stardust to the new file location of the Obj.

    Best, Kalle

    This should answer your question:

  • 1) You’re using a box that is 500 pixels square as the base form in a comp that is 1920 pixels wide and 1080 pixels tall. To make it match, you’d use a base form that is 1920 x 1080 pixels.

    2) The camera settings and position affect the perspective, so if you have moved the camera or changed settings after creating it that will change the look.

    3) You have scaled the image to 232%, so that makes it 232% size in relation to the Form object even if the other two settings matched. If you want to keep the scaling to fill the comp, you can precomp the layer and use the precomp as the layer map. Or you can render the original at same resolution as the comp.

  • You’re talking about a similar situation that you would have in After Effects if you precomposed a set of layers, and added an effect to the precomp. How are you going to export the individual layers inside the precomp with the effect that is applied to the precomp included in the individual layers? You can’t. You will have to apply the effect to each of the layers if you want to export them individually. OR you would have to turn off all other layers except one, export the precomp, turn on the next layer, export the precomp, etc.

    The interesting thing is that I’m in CC2018, and I do have the corner rounding effect available.

  • This is sort of from the top of my head, so might not be exactly right.

    changepointframe == 0;
    for (i = timeToFrames(time); i <= timeToFrames(inPoint); i--){
    if (effect("Beat Count")("Slider").valueAtTime(i*thisComp.frameDuration)

    What it is meant to do is look backwards from the current time frame by frame until the beat count slider goes smaller than the value of the variable cnt (which is the value of the slider at current time), and when it finds that point, it ends the loop, assigning that frame number to the variable changepointframe.

    If you multiply with frame duration (changepointframe*thisComp.frameduration), it gives you the time where the decay should start.

  • Yes, that requires a while loop that looks backwards from current time frame by frame until it finds the frame where the value is different from the current frame.

  • Well, you got a bunch of issues there…

    The first two error messages indicate a corrupt video file.

    AE access error doesn’t sound good, it may mean the user account you’re running AE from does not have proper access to the AE program folders. Perhaps a reinstallation of AE is in order. Or minimally resetting the preferences and/or checking that your user account has full access to the folders AE needs to function properly. Here’s instructions for one of the folders (but it may not be the only one): https://helpx.adobe.com/after-effects/kb/fixing-startup-permissions-problem.html

    Your graphic card is not on the E3D supported graphics cards list, which could also be a problem.

    AE previews as much of the clip as fits in you computer’s RAM allocated to the program.
