You can save a “Master Style” in the Essential Graphics panel to apply to other text, but I haven’t been able to find a way to apply that to multiple text clips at once, which is a bit of a drag, to say the least.

Did you ever find out if this was possible? Trying to figure out the exact same problem. I wish the compositing tag had an “amount to cut reflections by” option…

Render to Animation codec (for example) then open eh file in Media Encoder and export to h264 from there. Or open in QT Pro and export to H264 from there.

Maybe try precomping your layers? Sometimes render order with plugins causes problems.

Have you tried playing around with the “Set Matte” plugin (Under “Channels”)? I seem to recall using that in a similar situation a while back.

I don’t know if you’re on a Mac or not, but I’ve found that encoding my files using the x264 codec in Quicktime Pro works pretty nicely. Using a combo of the aforementioned techniques with multipass encoding, you can reduce banding quite a lot.

If you want a continuous 3D camera move to zoom in to that panel, you’d really need to either construct the panel pedestal with solids, thereby creating a 3D object in AE, or you would need to do it in a 3D program. Otherwise, yes, a lot of messing around with corner pinning and stuff that I don’t think would work well at all.

Are you using CS6? If so, did you hold shift while parenting? A new feature in CS6 will snap a child layer to the position of the parent if you hold shift while parenting the layer.

Maybe the Page Turn effect would give you the effect you’re looking for? Depends on how complex you’re looking to go, I guess.
