Using only footage and simple compositing techniques, we'll zoom into an actor's eye, and enter an abstract effect shot. This is a great transition when showing a character's inner thoughts, isolating the subject they're looking at, and really enhancing a scene.

Eye opening tutorial 💯💯
Flawless pun. 10/10.
I love how detail oriented you are. You’re not afraid to do some, you know...work
It's pretty wild. Most of the work I do is in fact work. I'll say most of the good stuff we see is the result of a heap of labour rather than tricks or clever hacks.
Thanks so much for sharing Sir
I really love the idea behind this !
Glad you like it!
Really like your tutorials lesson, thank you for this
Glad you like them!
Thanks for this tutorial🙌 I want to try it!
You're very welcome! I would love to see how it comes out!
wow looks amazing
Thank you so much.
Damn,14 min video make felt just a 5 min video,well done.
Thank you for sharing
Thanks for watching!
Awesome
Thanks
It is a bit fast. Really like it however. It is just a little hard to follow with one's own example footage to try to do.
What a fantastic tutorial. I think we have the second coming of Andrew Kramer on our hands. I'd really love to see, if possible, how to make or start making such an elaborate element as the cyber one used in this comp. A lot of the things I'd like to do seem time-prohibitive without using premade stuff, but if there are shortcuts or techniques to make it easier, I'd be all ears!
You're in luck, I'm actually doing weekly live streams over on Behance.net/ECAbrams. And for the next few weeks, every Saturday we're focusing on making just such an element. If you can't tune in live, the streams are archived for all time over there. It's a much more long-form, relaxed thing compared to these tutorials though, giving time to answer questions and get into tangents. It's a good time.
@@ECAbrams Sounds awesome! I'll try to at least catch a VoD or two! Cheers bud :)
Thanx
Always legit contents..
2 legit 2 quit.
Cool Stuff.
Thanks!
Wow
Another great tutorial! Hypothetical question here, if someone were to attempt this with a slow push instead, how would you account for the needed resolution as we blow up the image? I would assume that even 6K video would start to show its limits zooming into a pupil from a shot as "wide" as the starting frame. Without totally constructing the scene in 3D, could you think of a way to somehow hide a transition from a close up shot to a macro one - or maybe some other method I'm not even considering? Thanks again!
You could fake some DOF with the Camera lens blur once your footage is too scaled up.
Sounds like you also want to start wider and go slower, right? I would actually amend the process and start with a dolly shot into the subject as close as you can. Then a technique like this one takes over at a certain point. A zoom may play as well. You may need to deploy more tracking solutions to make this work, but basically the idea is one thing is going, and then another takes over, then another takes over from there. So long as the handoff can be smoothed and the track is solid no one will notice.
That's a very good point. Where the focal plane "is" in this kind of vfx shot can really hide some stuff, and bring some realism at the same time. If the focal plane is at the glowing elements, and it's deeper in the eye space, certainly the iris should be out of focus.
Can you please link to the footage? Great tut though. I collect eye zoom tuts! Love the effect, and this is a great addition to my collection.
For sure. I'll drop links in the description.
@@ECAbrams Thanks a lot. Great tut. Much appreciated and greetz from France.

Zooo😐ooo👀ooo 👁️ooo ✨ooom
Great video. Very thorough tutorial. I have a tracking question on a video I am trying to edit. I have a short video scene where a computer screen comes into the scene twice at different times. I am replacing the footage that is already there, not green screen, but I am not sure how to track the scene at different points in the video. If I track the scene in Mocha, I know I make and in and out point on the first time in comes onto frame, but how do I track it the second time. If you know of a video you have or someone else has on doing this, can you link to it please? I know the answer would probably be to long to give in the comments. Thanks in advance.
I would ask why it needs to be one track for both instances and not two tracks. You could pull data for the first instance, then different data for the second instance in the same long take. Two sets of data for two screen layers that are a prcomp of the same screen asset. Alternatively, you might solve the wold to get data about the space rather than data about the screen. Unless the screen is being manipulated relative to the world. Does that make sense?
@@ECAbrams yes and no. I understand making two different tracks, I’m assuming that means two different layers, but I tried that and it doesn’t seem to make a outline of the second time the screen comes in to view, I am probably doing something wrong.I am new to the after affects add mocha. I’d really like to see a video on it if you have one or could make one or know of one on UA-cam. I’ve searched everywhere. Thanks
Just to add a practical effect, like an all black sclera, and you want to put a reflection in it. Could that be easily done in post?
Maybe not "easily" but it's absolutely possible.
I want exactly reverse of this. Camera zoomout from a scene in eye. I didnt watch yet but can i do it with this video?
If you can reverse engineer the process, yes. Or just play the result in reverse I guess.
@@ECAbrams yes thank you
Great tutorial as usual, but I hope you could slow it down more so I could follow and comprehend it.
I'm not sure I can do that after the video has been uploaded. I would recommend using the slower playback speeds through youtube's interface.

In what sense do you mean?
hello from kenya. i love your tutorials buddy. i will find a way of appreciating that....maybe by buying you a bottle of whiskey
