| Most of the Puppet Tool examples show static puppet pins. The pins can of course be animated. And when animated, they should ideally track a viable moving object. Here's a simple, yet powerful, proof of concept - http://youtu.be/n58i9FyMqsk HTH - Roland Kahlenberg Intensive mocha & AE Training in Singapore and Other Dangerous Locations Imagineer Systems (mocha) Certified Instructor & Adobe After Effects ACE/ACI (version 7) ----- Original Message ----- From: "Chris Meyer" <chris@crishdesign.com> To: "After Effects Mail List" <AE-List@media-motion.tv> Sent: Tuesday, November 6, 2012 11:50:57 PM Subject: Re: [AE] Good Puppet Tool tutorials Puppet forms the mesh once; therefore it doesn't deal well with layers that self-animate. But you can animate it's Transform properties in AE, as Transformations are calculated after Effects, and Puppet is an effect. (Unless the layer is continuously rasterized, which rewires the rendering order for transforms to come before effects.) - Chris |
