when i try to add it to my video the it effects bits of my image that I dont want it to, is there anyway to fix this?

[@stephanzammit]

Hi, this technique would be dependant on the kind of footage you have. Basically the more silhouette and contrast there is the better it would look. SImilar to what happens in real life. You can however adjust this and tweak this a bit by adding a curves effect on the adjustment layer before the Radial blur. then you need to play with the curves chart to create more contrast in the footage.

Hey Which Mac are you using? and Which mouse do you use?

[@stephanzammit]

Hi, I am running this on: Apple M1 Ultra, Venture 13.1 ,just switched from PC very recently, and I love how smooth everything is!

[@alisheikh1582]

@@stephanzammit i was planing to switch from mac to pc. Would you suggest or shall i stay in the Mac??
Its m1 max.

[@stephanzammit]

​@@alisheikh1582 Would definitely recommend Mac! Most Adobe software has been re-designed for the new apple architecture, and it's just so much smoother in my opinion. Of course, there are some issue here and there, but over all it serves us quite well, and we do quite some high end stuff with it! you can see our online portfolio here: neuronfx.com/ 😁 Of course, it depends what you are doing... since if your intention is to use other 3D software like Autodesk Maya, etc, these might be more optimised for PC at the moment.

[@alisheikh1582]

@@stephanzammit Thats Great. I will stick to Mac yes I can noticed that Launch times of Adobe apps are now blazing fast. By the way Which mouse do you recommend for faster work on the Mac in after effects?

[@stephanzammit]

@@alisheikh1582 I am using a Logitech MX Master 3 Mouse. I would greatly recommend it. Just assign a few of the most used shortcuts to its side buttons, and it really improves the workflow.
