A tutorial on making portrait animation effect at the beginning of AE;
1. First, open our AE2 and create a new composition. 1280*720px, lasting for 5 seconds, on a black canvas. 3. Import our material picture into AE and click on the layer. The previous composition was named media click Pen Tool. Draw a folding line on the canvas and change the strokes to 500, so that the canvas will all turn white. Click the new shape layer and name it stroke click. The timeline moves to 1 sec, and the end point is changed to 100. Select two key frames. Let's add a slow-motion effect and click on the media layer. Our Alpha masked brush strokes search for burr effect in the effect bar, drag it to the brush stroke layer, and change the edge type to rust color, the boundary is 65, the edge sharpness is 5, the scale is 75, the telescopic width or height is 15, and the complexity is 65438. Change the evolution angle to 20, copy a layer of burr effect to get burr 2, change the edge type to shear, change the boundary to 30, change the edge sharpness to 1.5, change the zoom to 30, change the telescopic width or height to 12, change the complexity to 7, and change the evolution angle to 64. Create a new black solid color layer named BG, select two layers, pre-synthesize them, name them animation, and open the 3D layer. Move the start time to frame 12, search for the projection in the effect bar, and drag it to the animation layer. In the projection, change the opacity to 65, the distance to 40, and the softness to 160 to open the position properties. We change the Z axis to 350 to copy an animation layer to get animation 2, move the start time to frame 6 to search for hue/saturation in the effect bar, and drag the curve to animation layer 2. In Hue/Saturation, we will darken the RGB curve and turn on the position attribute in the curve, and change the Z axis to 500. Copy a layer of animation 2 to get animation 3. Search for blinds in the effect bar and drag them to animation layer 3. Change the transition completion degree of the shutter to 46, the direction to 45, the width to 35, the opening position attribute, and the z axis to 700. Copy a layer of animation 3 to get animation 4. We deleted the blinds and projection effects in the effect control, and then changed the zoom to 220. Change the z axis of the location attribute to 10005, create an empty object and name it camera control. Open the 3D layer and create a new camera layer. Click Camera Control on the camera control layer. Open the position attribute and rotation attribute, move the time axis to 0 second, change the position to 350,560,68, change the direction to 8,6,359, and change the X-axis rotation to 16. Move the timeline to 1 sec, change all the rotation attributes to 0, change the position to 580,340,0, create a new adjustment layer, name it OP, search for light compensation in the effect bar, drag it to the OP layer, the timeline moves to 0 sec, the visual field changes to 180, and the timeline moves to 1 sec. And check the reverse lens distortion 6, so that our animation has completed the animation effect about "how does AE make the opening portrait?" I want to share so much about the wonderful content of the portrait animation special effects production tutorial at the beginning of AE. I hope I can help you ~ If you think you haven't learned enough, don't miss the excellent video course of Feather Rabbit. In fact, to tell the truth, there are professional teachers to guide learning, and the effect is still very poor without guidance!
