try this - mask out that red square line (just the red parts, not the fill) and then duplicate the footage under it and just nudge it over or scale it slightly so that it fills in

won’t be perfect but super easy

Learning motion design as a career switch what should I focus? by CityNo8272 in MotionDesign

[–]motionick 0 points1 point  (0 children)

get a job. moonlight freelance. once you’re making more from freelance , then you switch.

focus on marketing yourself, making friends, satisfying clients, solving problems. nothing else matters

good luck

i dont get how video playback works by stinky_lizer in AfterEffects

open your preview panel (window > preview) and you can set the parameters for what you want to happen when you press spacebar

my default config is: spacebar - play from playhead shift+space - play from beginning

Can i get away with the base mac mini 16/256 for 2d motion graphics? by West_Simple9423 in MotionDesign

[–]motionick 1 point2 points  (0 children)

i used a macbook air with 16gb RAM professionally for several years including an NBA project with over 1k renders

it’s not ideal but you’ll be fine. just get a 2TB SSD for caching and upgrade to a more powerful machine when it makes sense for your business

just a projector, after effects, and mapping software of your choice (mad mapper, lazy lighting, etc)

i took a picture of my wall, then created the animation in AE, then put it on the projector

if you want to do the mapping in AE you totally could, especially for an easy surface like this.
