In this easy to follow tutorial by flomotion you will learn 5 really cool steps of compositing in after effects. They will be time saving as well as improvements for workflow and realism of your compositions!
Perfect for absolute beginners as well as trained professionals!
In part one I am going to explain to you all you need to know about perspective, vanishing points and finding the horizon. As well as some tricks for matching perspective and how to shrink yourself and make yourself a giant!
Part 2 focuses on black levels and gamma. How to match the black level of two images with an easy trick within the levels effect
In part 3 you will learn about depth in general, as well as depth compositing and setting up depth of field with the camera lens blur and a blur map.
Part 4 covers color matching in After Effect. How to fake color spill! You will learn how to create an average color of the Background and how to blend that color onto your Foreground elements. And you will also learn about the lumetri color effect and about color temperature of day time shots and night time shots.
And the last part is the coolest: You will learn how to create camera effects to make your shot look like it was shot with a real camera!
We are adding lens effects, like a dirt texture, a chromatic aberration, a vignette, lens distortion as well as lens flares from anamorphic lenses and letterboxes, meaning the black bars on top and bottom of your video and we do that with the crop effect.

#aftereffects #compositing #composition - Фільми й анімація
This was easily one of the best tutorials i have ever seen on compositing. It was actually providing information in a way that was entertaining but more importantly, it was actually educational. Too many of these UA-cam videos that are aiming at promoting their sh*t to sell and don't care if you learn or not. You my friend felt like a university prof that actually wanted his students to learn something new.
Thanks a lot for your comment! The goal always is and was: Infotainment!!
This is the most in-depth guide about compositing ever! Especially about perspective; I usually just match them by eye. Didn’t know there was an accurate way to do it.
Haha... but once you know how it is done you will see so many wrong owrspectives on posters and so on!! Watch out!!
The Tutorials get better and better. Probably tue best VFX Chanel on youtube. Keep on tutorialing 🤘
I love this GUY... i love and love and love this guy. Never disappointed and have learned what ill say costed me sooooooo much in editing school which i even didnt get it... wow...
I love him too…
This is hands down the best compositing tutorial I've ever seen! It's so hard to find detailed information about compositing, especially color correction and perspective. Thanks so much for the helpful tips. I'd love to see a step-by-step breakdown of how you composited the alien abduction scene, it would be awesome to understand how you applied the compositing concepts to all of the different elements and footage.
OMFG!! Thank you so so much for your feedback and the nice words!!
@@flo.motion I agree with @Step1. this tutorial taught me soo much, aswell as the zebra one that you explain how to level out the blacks and whites. Please add some more tutorials for compositing, they are amazing, so hard to find any good ones that are very well explained like yours. Would love to see more on how to integrate footage.
Thanks soo much for these amazing tutorials!
This content is totally underrated! The technical information dropped in here are gold indeed!

This has answered all my questions.
Perfecto!!

Really nice video :D
Thanks a lot!!
Oh my gooooooooooooood, you touched on so many, SO MANY questions I've had simmering in my mind for ages.
If I could like this video more than once, I would.
...any open questions??
@@flo.motion Compositing buildings / spaceships in the background? You kind of covered it with 3a but I'd love to see more in that topic.
Getting perfect perspective when shooting and making perspective corrections digitally?
Adding the perfect amount of motion blur back after shooting different kinds of high-shutter footage?
Compositing miniatures?
But yeah, 5 More Compositing Tricks ahahaha Make this a series!
@@flo.motion Sir, would you like to see a lyric video I made based on many of your techniques here? I got hired by a record label in the past year hehe
I've been compositing for 3 years and had no freaking clue about half these tips and tricks.
Haha I didn't know about those for the first 10years!!
Nice 😘
I’m a huge fan of your channel. Congratulations! I really wanna develop myself In compositing and it’s very hard to find good content about this
Thank you so much for your nice words!!
Tip No 4 was great for me as struggle with matching colours often.
Also YaY ! for prize...many thanks Flo.
Hey! License should be in your inbox!!
@@flo.motion You sir are a true star.
Many thanks and cannot wait for your next.
Amazing! Wanna more!
thank you!!
thank you
Tnx
Good Lord! I was already writing a comment to say thank you for the tut and fantastic as always as the winner announcements came up. I hiccuped in surprise. Thank you so much!
Haha, thanks! Will get in contact with you soon! You have your mail on your youtube account??
@@flo.motion Not sure. Let me check and revert.
@@flo.motion I do now.
@@flo.motion Did you get my email address from my UA-cam account? I set it up in YT studio but it's the first time I try and I'm not sure it works.
@@ccuny1 Hey! License should be in your inbox!!
Tell me, how do you auto turn colors and black&white mode in AAE?
with the black and white effect! Or simply use the saturation effect and turn the saturation to 0!
Naice man
thanks a lot!!
加油！
Man that was great tutorial!!
What about adding shadow? Do you have some principals or tricks that are important?
Thanks!
Hey! Have you watched my "riding a dinosaur" tutorial, there I speak a bit about shadows!
@@flo.motion I will!
4:52 how could you tell you were shooting at the same perspective as the tiger footage? In the green screen shot, I can see one of the lines matched up with the box the tiger jumps on, but I don't see any straight lines being matched in the plate
Hey! I matched the vanishing lines on the box to the vanishing points on the table. Meaning I looked for the horizon line in both shots and aligned them! You can see the full video here:

🙌🙌👍👍
Thank you!!
More!
...soon...
Nice
tnx
Some clarification.
This is stuff I also learned online. I'm not a professional by any means.
Perhaps some things were simply not explained well.
By my knowledge, letterboxes are a solution to the mismatched aspect ratio. Letterboxes, don't make things physically correct. They are inherently a 2d solution to a 2d problem. It's the fit option compared that lets you have all of the image sacrificing it for eye space. The process you explained was the process of using an anamorphic lens. Letterboxes don't inherently come from the process of using anamorphic lenses. Anamorphic lenses let you capture a wider image on a camera. If it's too wide, it will be cropped. It's an if because there can be formats and screens that support the aspect ratio. Also, there can be different amounts of squeezing. It's a separate thing. There's nothing fake about what you did. Nothing is physically more accurate.
Hey! I think we both mean the same thing here! Different lenses create different aspect ratios. To compensate for that we sometimes see black borders at top and bottom and got used to that! So if you have a 16:9 video image and simply crop off top and bottom, even though your lense has full coverage, it still looks a bit more cinematic, as we are used to seeing this! Makes sense?
It’d be awesome if you talk about creating fake shadows In post. Such as contact shadows and projectes ones
Hey, that is actually a really good idea!! Will do that in my next "Dinosaur" Tutorial
❤❤❤❤❤
Great ask for the subscribe button. Made me do it
Jiha!!

Haha... the footage is from envato!
really nice, do you do music too? I see a guitar.
Jeah! I have a lot of guitars... actually i am a collector! Do you play as well??
@@flo.motion Nice, I play the piano not the guitar. I get excited when I see video creators that also do music. lol maybe because I am trying to mix the 2.
