    Hi

  2. If you see a "cool" title effect how can you know what it was made by ? You usually can't unless there is some telltale or signature effect

    The truth is, if you see something "cool" made in Adobe, it's actually usually made in After Effects, and/or the bundled Cinema4D Lite

    I think a better question is "what makes something cool?" - It's usually an original idea, or something related to the topic/content, or effectively conveys a message. Something can be a technical masterpiece of visual FX, but take away or detract from the actual video or movie. You shouldn't forget what the job of the title is in the first place. The software are just tools, you are the artist

    it's free, but is blender very slow to create "cool" comapared to after effects?

    Many of them could be done in blender - these are just "tools", and the same thing can often been done with different tools

    Blender is more difficult to use for most people. For beginners, it's going to be much slower. It is more 3D oriented , but has a VSE (video sequence editor) that is similar to a timeline "video editor". A critical difference is it uses nodes instead of "layers". People used to photoshop or image editing will learn AE much faster because the concepts are very similar. There are many, many free and paid tutorials for AE, but the same can be said about blender. Both have a large user base that are willing to help out.

    AE is mainly a layer based compositor, but it's the "gold standard" for most 2D VFX work, except for high budget productions, which tend to use Nuke more (Nuke is also nodal based). AE has literally thousands of plugins available, and many of them do have "signature" looks still used in things like movies today. (e.g. Trapcode plugins)

    Vegas Pro can do 2.5D card animation, and has the most common compositing modes, as well as the industry standard toolset. And you might check out HitFilm. HitFilm is to Vegas like AE is to Premiere.

    Yes it can be done in premiere, essentially the same way as it's done in vegas

    Both are "faked" 2.5D . In AE, it is much easier to do "2.5D" with parallax, there is more control, because you have real z-space, and a "virtual" camera.

    Once you get into 3D space, with cameras, the learning curve goes up precipitously.

  9. I wonder what you would call "fake 2.5D" ?? "2.25D" ?

    @rama - "2.5D" is a term used to describe "flat" image layers oriented in z-space. You have x,y,z coordinates, but the layer itself is "flat", like a photo . Layers can be offset in z-space (ie. farther away, or closer), but the layer itself has no depth. "3D" refers to real geometry with vertices - it exists "fully" in x,y,z

    This is also easy to do with Aviutl (free). Here is a simple example using camera, you can also add camera effects like shake and whatnot...

    I don't know, hahaha.

    Was there a joke in there? If so, it went over my head.

    Is that like a MatchMove simulation? The tractor in the cornfield is a still?

    Did you mean full screen ?

    Push the full screen button in the preview pane (it's the 2nd button).

  17. Yes, that button. Also Try alt+shift+4

    What do options => preferences => preview device say ? Try playing with some of the settings. Or sometimes it might be GPU drivers or settings problem

    hi
    thanks
    work
    do you know i had 2 monitor plugged yesterday , and i guess vegas tried to preview on the second monitor

    now i fixed and the short key works

    would like to have the normal preview preview auto , and for the full view best full
    but i guess it's not possible , there is no option in the preferences

    may i change the shortkey in f11 for example?

    Yes, both the field and tractor are images acquired from google image search. You can also do it on a single image, but you'll have to extract your target object into a new layer and clone in the background.

    P.S. It was just an excuse to try Aviutl running in Linux under wine. It works well with a few little quirks now and then, that you don't see in Windows.

    Running the preview window in Best/Full mode forces you to loop the region several times before smoothing out. Also uses more system resources.

    Tip: Make your workflow like a pyramid. Build UP. Use Pre-Render a lot.

    yes you can remap keyboard shortcuts (options => customize keyboard) .

    For the fullscreen button / 2nd monitor toggle
    options => customize keyboard => global tab => VideoPreview.ExternalMonitorToggle

    You can save it as a keyboard map, in case there are some configurations you use often or want to switch between quickly

    Hey, that one was good, but not enough view of the spider.

    That's because the preview window is docked. Undock it.

    Yes, obviously I made it with Aviutl. Here is a better version. I put the spider on it's own layer and added a web....
