    sometimes I have to tweak it a bit by hand. Also your fan might not be perfectly symmetric.

    good luck…pivot points tweak me out!!

    Does emptying the cache every so many frames speed up a render?? If so what are the negatives of this option…everything has a negative….

    thanks

    Video games help me…Along with going for a ride and picking up a chocolate shake. I also found that when I dont make it to the gym during the week that I feel a bit sluggish on the creative side. I have to get rid of some stress by playing softball or basketball or something…

    I would definitely shoot for a layered look with some transparent materials. Maybe just hits of your logo and branding statement would work for you…I dont think a mural is the answer…

    You can always trace them in AE and export a still to Photoshop.

    I like the stand alone version. I dont need another plug-in to slow down AE. If you plan out your work flow there is no loss by using it as a stand alone. And either programs run just fine with them both open.

  • The key to make this look good is reflections. The tube of the TV give alot of great reflections that you will need on top of you footage in order to get what you are looking for. I start off by matching the colors and contrast. Then you will need some noise or scan lines something to dirty up the footage a bit. Then mask out the tube from the shot and lay it over the footage you are trying to insert and use a combinations of transfer modes and level adjustments to lay the reflections over the top. To top it off you will need some fall off in the corners so make sure your footage fades out towards the edges of the tube.

    This is all about perception. If you can look at a TV and figure out what makes it look the way it does then the hard part is over with.

    good luck

    Ya I am familiar with that. Sorry I should have explained a bit more. But I restarted the computer and we are all good. I dont know why it was doin that. But I did a bunch of tweaks and tryed to save the proj and it wouldn’t so I just used save as and overwrote the proj and it was cool.

    Thanks
