    10:19 to leave the shape open you can just SHIFT+ click the last point to deselect it and when you continue drawing it will create a new one.
    Thanks for sharing, NBA Commercial looks really nice.

    Excellent. I love how you took a standard feature in After Effects (The Stroke tool) and taught us how to use it through an awesome creative looking tutorial, not just here, make a box using the stroke tool or here the stroke tool can make lines. This tut makes learning this feature interesting. I've been using After Effects for approx. 20 years and there are still many features I haven't mastered. Cheers.

    • @cmdelavega

      Double check that no layer is selected on timeline. Click outside the timeline to deselect. If a layer is selected and you use pentool, it will draw a mask.

      Thanks a lot man.

    • @cmdelavega
      @cmdelavega  5 лет назад

      When you double click on any footage, it will open up in the layer panel. You don't want to be in the layer panel to create the shape layer. You want to stay in the composition panel (main window/work area where you see what you're creating/animating). If you're in the composition panel, follow these steps. (1) deselect all layers by going to Edit -> Deselect All. You can also use the shortcut Ctrl+Shift+A. (2) Click on the Pen Tool. (3) Draw/Trace in the composition panel. At this point After Effects will create a new layer and it should be a Shape Layer. The layer name should start with the words "Shape Layer". Hope this helps! Let me know how it goes.

    Great tutorial. How would you go about doing this frame-by-frame? For example, on a 30 frame video, and wanting to draw on each frame separately.

    • @cmdelavega
      @cmdelavega  5 лет назад +6

      Thanks! That's a great question. The long and tedious way is perhaps to make a comp for each frame, draw the lines in each comp. Make a master comp and bring each comp and trim to one frame. Wouldn't be very practical. Another way is to keyframe the shape layer throughout the 30 frames. This will be faster. A faster technique involves using masks instead of shape layers. Use the auto trace function (Layer -> Auto Trace). First, make the image a high contrast, black and white image. 2, use the alpha channel option in Auto Trace to create the outer line/mask. You would just need to add the details in the face, etc. You can also you the Saber plugin from Video Copilot for the glow!

    Can we use this effect like talking to someone in a conversation

      Most definitely! You may want to use a different technique to make it less work otherwise you could be going frame by frame or if it's people talking maybe the face stays the same but just the mouth moves. You'll need to do some experimentation and see what works best.

    I think you can improve your speed if you use Adobe Illustrator, not only can it give you smoother and cleaner lines but it's easier to navigate around for painting. Then, import to After effects and convert to shapes.

      Thanks for the tip! Yes, definitely for those who are comfortable with Illustrator, it's a better/quicker workflow. Illustrator is not my strength, so that's why I just stuck with AE. Appreciate the tip!!
