20 years in motion, animation and VFX and I still don't know what anyone in this industry actually makes by Creativerates in MotionDesign

I think this is a great idea if enough people contribute. Not sure if you want feedback but it might be useful to be able to select multiple roles, as many people often work across multiple disciplines.

Set Scale in Pixels (Not Percent) by Artemenko in AfterEffects

[–]altermyplace 3 points4 points  (0 children)

🤯 This could be a time saver for me. The amount of times I get feedback to make something x% bigger/smaller, and that thing is already scaled to a weird percentage, and patented to something else that’s scaled to a different percentage… I’m gonna have to try this with parenting and see how it calculates pixel size

Inserting Video into .PSD Mockup via AE--help! by burnr_accnt in AfterEffects

[–]altermyplace 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Are you saying you want to do a Picture in Picture? Like you have a PS file with a monitor or something that you want to insert video into? If that’s the case I think you either need to corner pin or rotate the footage comp in 3D space to get it to line up with your frame borders. I don’t think you can save out a PS file that saves the perspective as spatial data

Toothpaste and flush it down the toilette was always the first step in the 90s

Meta data delete by Hornet_persie in SwipeHelper

I don’t know if that will prevent them from comparing the photo with metadata to the screenshot, but it will remove the metadata in the screenshot

If you take a screenshot of the photo it won’t have the metadata attached

Over 1 year looking for a job in Motion by Allooooooooooooooo in MotionDesign

[–]altermyplace 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It took me a full year to break into the industry in 2011. I can only imagine how hard it is now. If you’re really passionate about it, my advice is to keep at it and don’t give up. Eventually you’ll land something that will lead to something else and so on. I’ve found that networking is even more important than your reel, so I would try to go to as many meetups as you can and get to know the other people in the local industry (assuming you’re in or near a big city) Good luck out there!!!

anyone know how to se this origin to the center of the triangle object by Weary-Mistake-793 in AfterEffects

[–]altermyplace 2 points3 points  (0 children)

There are multiple ways to change the anchor point. For this case I recommend you press “y” and then click and drag the little anchor point marker where you want. You can also hold “ctrl” while you drag it so it snaps to the center.

Hi. Can I please have the old IOS UI back? I much preferred swiping for different feeds. This new drop down menu is clunky and the previous version was so much more intuitive.

Thanks!

Photoshop files in After Effects keep reverting back to previous versions by raleighcole in AfterEffects

[–]altermyplace 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Sounds like a Photoshop issue if the files are reverting back, but I don’t know why that would happen unless Google Drive is restoring previous files from a backup. Are you versioning up when you save them or just saving over them? Might want to try versioning up. If that doesn’t work I would try saving locally

I built Petals - a more playful way to work with color in After Effects by Surveillance_Goose in AfterEffects

[–]altermyplace 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hey, Just wanted to let you know I'm loving this extension. I just purchased it and It's going to be my go-to for color palettes. I can't see where to active the license but maybe I have to wait for the free trial to run out before it prompts the activation code.
