And let's add the words custom, clothes, and then press Return to go to the next line. Now, to add text into the scene, let's go to the Tool panel in the upper left corner and click on the T for the text, and then we'll hover underneath the word LANEKA'S and then click towards the middle here.
So, I'll go to the lower left corner, click on the Magnification drop down and change that to 100%. As I'm looking at the Composition panel, its magnification is less than 100%, and I'd like to actually zoom in. Lastly, go to the Paragraph panel and make sure that the text is center justified because we want the text to be centered underneath of our main text here in the Composition panel. Just so we all have the same size text, let's click on the drop down where we can set our text size. In order to choose white, just click the white box down here. Yours may be a completely different color. To set the color of our text, let's go over the right side here and notice we have red as the previous color. And now I have a bunch of different Arial options. So, click on the first drop-down and you'll notice that we have not only the names of the fonts on the left, but previews of what the fonts will look like on the right. Let's start in the Character panel and set our font. That'll open the Character panel and the Paragraph panel here on the right side of the interface. Click on that and that'll show you all the rest of the workspaces. Go to the upper right corner of the Composition panel, and just above it, you'll see this double arrow here. This clip could not - relies on computer generated to add some of the motion but the basic process could be done without a computer.Since we will be working with text in this tutorial, let's start by switching to the Text workspace. A film like mine could be make using a mutiplane Oxberry animation stand. Disney refined it - google photoanimation to read Wikipedia and watch Disney himself explain ( ). This overall technique is "multiplane photoanimation" that is nearly as old as film itself.

Plus I have a bunch more techniques beyond this form of 2.5 for photoaninamation. I actually find the missing data to avoid any computer-generated imagery (the video posted here relies on quite a bit of computer generated background fills, image warp and distortion (e.g.
I leave the photographs as is except for the layering. My film is a 40 minute 6k film for IMAX theaters created entirely in 2.5D from over 1,000,000, photos and importantly, I don't do any painting, cloning, warping that is done in this video nor add lens flares, moving highlights etc.
That was the film that inspired my project, In Saturn's Rings ( ). However, you failed to mention the Kid Stays in this Picture - the film that really refined and created this process via After Effects almost 10 years ago.

A still shot shows up on-screen, and it appears to be moving in 3D space, the camera zooming or tracking forward toward the subject.Īccording to an article from The Creators Project, Fellows worked on the 2D animations for Ad Hoc Films to create incredible visuals for the World Wildlife Foundation, using their photo archive to create the parallax effect show in the video below: We've seen this effect in the title sequences and end credits in films, where still photos are animated to have 3D look - mostly in recent action films. By separating the background, mid, and foreground, you can animate your photos creating a parallax effect that will turn your simple 2D still images into moving 3D storytelling devices.

We've seen this used in countless film intro sequences, and now motion graphics artist and director Joe Fellows shows us how to achieve this 3D effect in After Effects. One of the post-production techniques I've yearned to know more about was animating still photos.
