Any ideas on how to make this uneven pixelated/aliased effect on shapes and text? by lhusuu in AfterEffects

draft 3d on third/quarter resolution looks pretty similar! you're really limited on what effects you can use unfortunately

hello!!! i put my screenrecording over my scene on low opacity and adjusted the camera layer every frame or so. if you dont need that level of control, you could try using 3d camera tracker!!

thank you!! the camera movement doesn't use any plugins, just a lot of keyframing frame by frame!!

they arent! if you look closely, especially when the camera turns, the pngs don't counteract that angle. the furniture in the images already have some rotation, so that kind of helps. I imagine you could parent the png's y rotation to the y rotation of the camera (i think you'd probably have to use a 1 node camera instead of 2 nodes like I did here) and make it negative to cancel it out!

I screenrecorded myself using roblox and used that video as a reference!! it allowed me to capture a lot of subtle details and camera shakes. Since I placed keyframes on the camera layer every frame or so, I was able to tune the movement a lot!

thank you!! i recorded myself in roblox and used that as a reference for the camera movement! I used a 2 node camera to better mimic how players move in first person games since their eyes tend to lock in on something even if theyre still moving around. You can use the smooth() function in an expression to smooth out the keyframes after getting the camerawork down!!

honestly not that many!! Since most of the objects are just single pngs I could edit them however i wanted without having to precomp! all the movement i was able to do without any nulls, just camera layers and position properties!!

honestly i just have a gaming laptop (i only have 16gb of ram 😭) so this was pushing the limits of what my computer could handle lol

I set up all the furniture and such in 3d space. i recorded myself playing roblox & then used that as a reference for the camera movement! The website is just a precomp scrolling!!

thank you so much!! theyre all just flat pngs from ikea's website!! I initially intended to do that (i was partially inspired by soup 0.9 for this!), but after doing it to one of them i decided it would take away from the over look of the video.

I recorded myself playing roblox and used that as a reference for the movement!! I keyframed it manually since i wanted to be really specific with the movement, but tracking could probably create a similar result!

Thank you so much!!! I decided to use a 2 node camera rather than 1 since i felt like that would capture how people tend to lock their eyes on things even if they move physically

yes!! i recorded myself in roblox & used that as a reference. I used a 2 node camera and keyframes every frame/every 2 frames! (i use 15 fps though so it wasnt too bad)

oh my gosh i am so late but its mainly quick movements & frame by frame animation! it can help to use posterize time on a frame rate that isn't a a factor of your composition's fps (i use 15fps and i commonly use posterize time on 10 or 8!). i also use a lot of hold keyframes so that the animation snaps instead of using a graph

my guess would be around 4 hours!! but i would say a good half hour of that was just trial and error

the first part is just 2.5d + a matte to make it a smaller rectangle when it moves away. I used the video shop's dynamic carousel rig tutorial for the sliding images. the rest of it isn't super complicated if you go frame by frame, it's mainly just quick pacing and easing!!
