Morph Shapes in After Effects

[@moirahornik5043]

Super efficient! All the other tutorials for this are 15 minutes + and I can’t believe it’s so easy!

[@Michael_Tierney]

Thanks Moira :)

[@lokaster]

Pure gold this channel thanks a lot I didn't want to see a 21mins video explaining this, you got your well-deserved like and sub.

[@orinivanvrkas7409]

This is how I like my tutorials, short and to the point.

[@KourasmenosGR]

There's a problem, object position and anchor is changing during morphing...is there a fix?

[@cyberhustles]

Yeah I just found one that works for me.
You have to make sure all anchor points are set to ( 0,0 ) on both shapes. Note that both shape layers have 2 transform panels - 1 for shape and 1 for layer - make sure ALL anchor points are set to 0,0.
Also make sure that the scale is the same for both layers. Let me know if that works for you.

[@小笼包-m3o]

Yes, and nobody is mentioning that! 😂 Igor advice helped.

[@mehrdadirani978]

Hello
I have a problem, after placing the anchor point of the second shape in the desired place, the shapes are morphed by changing the displacement, while I have not moved the position at all.

Thank you so much i've been looking this for 1 hour !

[@arashkh3188]

you are a savior. helped me a lot on a project.

[@eduborrell6166]

When I do the morphing they go to a random position and Idk what I have to change, anyone ?

[@msjstudioo]

Thank you Michael amazing tutorial in short time!

[@Pandachii]

Thank you for your helpful video!

[@Cyber9tech]

Cool, I loved it!

[@AbuBakar_0001]

that's incredible

[@vfx888]

Brilliant, thanks

[@Michael_Tierney]

No problem, glad I could help :)

[@kwyjibo02]

The shapes keep moving and I cant stop it. Even after setting all anchor points to 0,0. Followed everything in the vid but I get different results??
Edit: I can get it working when both shapes are on the same layer, but not when both shapes are on different layers like the tutorial.
Edit2: I got it working by lining up all anchor points and positions of both the layer and shape properties but it took many more steps than this (great) tutorial. When lining up the properties, it took both shapes completely off screen and I had to drag them back together! Weird, but got there eventually.

[@evelynschepens]

So easy and helpful, thank you!

[@onemansarmy]

👏👏👏 That's the good tutorial! Thanks! 😀

[@arkhi.anastasia]

thank you very much) great for a beginner level)

Thanks a lot Michael it was very beneficial, your way is super easy and clear. 👍

[@BeansGalaxy]

[@Sakaiedit]

Tysm that's too helpful ❤

[@cengkirwaskita8511]

[@kevinjlakner]

[@danny6379]

Thank you!!!!

[@imalkarandev3516]

thank you

[@MyName-bv9xd]

Hi Mitchell! I really like the way you do the morph, but when I do it, there is a problem. When the star turns into a circle, my shape moves by itself! What should I do to fix it? Sorry, Im not good at english😁😁😁

[@technopoint5681]

Other morphin tutorials are 5 minutes +, this one is nice and short 🙂 Thank you

[@danielelagha6755]

thanks michael. can we even make this work for shapes we paste into after effects? or will it then be something different.

[@stevenmakse9481]

thanks!

[@octanefx3228]

while doing this the positions are getting messed up , the shape is morphing but it moves to different position. Even after we recentre it, it goes on the other direction.
HELP ME PLEASE

[@alyssafavorito4963]

Look at comment above about anchor points. SAme thing happened to me because I wasn't zeroing out the shape AND layer anchor points.

[@jesuismt17]

[@Jayysam95]

This tutorial was very easy to understand, would the process be the same for morphing text into PNG?

[@HendAlMansour]

Looks great, but when I tried to do it the "Convert to Besier Path" command was grayed out. For the life of me I could not figure out how to make it work!!

[@emmawarman]

same :/ idk what to do ive searched stuff up for the last few hours

[@cbcsurvivalguide]

Can this be used to morph vectors as well such as two different people eg. fat to skimmy person?

[@feridferid1739]

Teşekkür ederim .

[@evelynschepens]

Just tried it for some more complicated shapes (a square with pieces angles out and a circle) and it doesn't work, it makes weird shapes all over the place...

[@starsbythepocketful.]

will it work the same way if i animate stick figures?

[@benthosundercover7916]

genuis thanksss

[@dfxasv7675]

Hi guys... Tell me is it only usable for simple objects like a star and a ring or it is the same technique for complex shapes, like icones, characters or anything cplex.... Thanks for sharing

[@joshuaspruett]

I'm currently trying to figure out how to do this if you have more than one path in a shape.

I am having the same issue. On current version of AE "convert to bezier path" is grayed out for some reason... trying to look into a fix.

[@shamirareddy754]

@@TheWereouttothewoods it would only work if u make a shape with pentool in new shape layer,, try once

[@lmy222]

​@@TheWereouttothewoods Im a little late but I just had the same problem and it was because I had to go one more step down to next path to convert it to bezier

[@FragMentt]

Doesnt work for simple line shape =(

Я тебя целую! Спасибо Бро!

[@Penlevod]

What would I do without you?

[@danielchutin2439]

This only works for predetermined shapes, otherwise this is usless.

[@mrglowtm]

That's not true, it works with custom polygons as well.
