January 30, 2020 at 4:12 pm in reply to: Using Particle playground to make an image into particles and blow it to side of a mask

Note: you don’t need to keyframe the radius of the particles of your layer exploder down to 0 to make them stop after the first frame, you can also (if it’s precomped), just trim the image source to the first frame only. The Layer Exploder does not create particles where the source of the layer is transparent.

As to your particles not being affected, I don’t know what the issue might be. I’m not having an issue getting them to work. What radius do your cannon particles themselves have?

Also, I’m not sure this plan will exactly do what you want anyway. WIthout gravity, the particles are just going to bounce all over the place; they’re not going to settle against the boundary. You’ll need some gravity and then some friction in the perpetual property mapper to keep them still until the repel force hits them and then to keep them from bouncing around infinitely.

You can use motion graphics templates in AE too.

The image showing the alpha is all white. That means nothing is roto-ed. It’s all there.

What does the warning banner say at the bottom of your layer window?

What version of AE are you using? Is it 17.0.2?

January 30, 2020 at 2:34 pm in reply to: What’s your workflow using multicams in AE using virtual sets?

I would suggest going with the edit first and then AE workflow.
Otherwise, you’re having to wait for SO MUCH extra AE rendering time.
You can import a Premiere Pro Project to AE and it’ll come in with each cut on its own layer, so you can pretty easily match up which “camera” to be using in AE.

You don’t need to stabilize both shots. You only need to do it with one. Get one rock-hard stabilized and then use motion tracking to tie it to the other one.

January 30, 2020 at 2:27 pm in reply to: Paint and clone stamp tools out of whack

I don’t have enough experience with the paint tools to offer much in the way of help, but (if you’re using the newest version of AE,) you could try using the Content Aware Fill option instead of the cloning tools for some tasks. Might be worth a glance.

Speaking of AE versions, what version of AE are you using? Is it 17.0.2?

What is the frame rate of your footage and what is the frame rate of your comp?

If you can click the Collapse Transformations option on the layer without messing up how it looks, the drop shadow will respect the angle.

I don’t know how I thought about it. I guess just experience over time.

If you have a chain of nulls. One for each axis (or maybe two nulls and your regular object) with each one parented to the next, you can get rotation always in the desired axis.
