the way the paths are revealed and the rather simple perspective motion makes me thing this was done in Ae and properly faked to give the impression it was 3D. here’s a nice tutorial about how to achieve it:

this is usually done by placing a captured video of a splatter caught on tape and then composited over the image using standard compositing methods including tracking if necessary. you may found something in here:

December 31, 2016 at 5:44 pm in reply to: After Effects rendered through AME gave jerky animationI suspect this is a GPU rendering issue. try this – in the Queue panel in AME use “Mercury playback engine software only” as your renderer and not and not “GPU” and try again.

[Dustin Campbell] “I’m assuming I need to keyframe the scale size of the text”
I would advise against that. you are not trying to scale the layer but to hover through it. you should make it a 3D layer and use the Z position. it will move much more realistically and you will find that controlling it is much easier because you can control the whole movement in a single parameter instead of two. tracking the text is an overkill. this is a simple movement you can easily reconstruct yourself

December 25, 2016 at 4:16 pm in reply to: 80’s VFX, part two – of page turns and cube rollsoh it’s you again ☺
[Calvin Hones] ” the page turn at 0:16″
not so much of a page turn. you can use a distort effect like corner pin or CC power pin and keyframe the corners[Calvin Hones] ” and the “inverted 3D cube” rotation from then to 0:25″
set your layer to 3d and offset it’s anchor point back in Z space

now just animate the Y rotation
when you are satisfied, duplicate the layer and offset it in time

you can create precomps of these layers (leave all attributes) and place anything you want inside

[Ronald Czarnecki] ” create a way the snow could go around the matte when it is applied to an NEL in which a matte key would be dropped on the effect. “
you lost me there. I think I still don’t understand the issue… if you could illustrate what the result should look like visually in photoshop or other ways then I think we can offer some way to deal with this. many ways to make a matte, surely there is a way that will satisfy what you need.
