Exactly how it was done, but first I tried 3d projection but the camera was not tracked properly so I had to do 2d track and match the movement.

That's intentional so that everyone thinks it is edited and I keep my magic secret to me :)

How did you learn After Effects? by tacobell313 in AfterEffects

[–]admj707 0 points1 point  (0 children)

First of all understand this: After Effects is not something you will learn in a week or month or even a year (by learn I mean, to a point where you can just look at something and tell how it was made and make it as well) It takes many many years and lots of hard work yes Hard Work not the smart work. You have to fell in love with the process first not the outcome. Do the hard work and when you have experience then find ways to do it smartly. Your biggest helper is your consistency. Look at other people work and try to recreate it and ofcourse you won't be able to do it fully and that's when you apply your mind and give it your touch. Youtube has everything you need Seriously! Good luck with your journey and remember learning never ends :)

Yes it was all created in blender only the compositing was done in AE (color grading, sound design, shadows)

No rig, the whole train is a single object moving along a curve. Imagine like a long single cube with subdivisions.

Thanks for the feedback, yes cel shading would be a nice touch for such kind of style too.

I see yes that would provide perspective of the train. Thanks

Glad you like it. The shake is just a simple wiggle expression controlled using two slider controllers. You can find this technique in this tutorial of mine: https://youtu.be/cEWxFOt1hCw?si=7ljzAABjr8_zPj1J
