May 15, 2017 I'm looking to do 2 things as I learn the clone stamp tool in After Effects. I am trying to remove this cord from the shot: 1. I am using clone stamp on a completed Premiere Pro project. I only need to use the clone stamp on 1 shot that appears a few times in the video. I don't seem to be able to. Read more about this exclusive Premiumbeat.com video tutorial, where Evan Abrams shows us how to use an inertia script to simulate a.

Make your motion titles more impactful with this After Effects trick.

One of the hardest things to do as a motion designer is to create realistic physics in Adobe After Effects. In the following video tutorial we will take a look at how to preserve and create realistic inertia in Adobe After Effects. The video covers:

  • Using the merge layers effect on shapes
  • Using inertia scripts
  • Using sliders to dictate expressions.

How to Create the Grunge Paper Background. Create a new 850 x 550px document. Here are 4 animated Rubber Stamps I made in After Effects. The 3D rubber stamps are pre-rendered and made out of a png image sequence. All stamps have an alpha channel (transparent) so you can use any background behind them. Of course you can change the text on the stamp.

The inertia script is a great tool for any physics based projects. You can download it from GreyMachine.

1Create a new composition and add in circular shape. Add a merge paths effect and subtract a star from the circle.
2Create a new background solid, any color will work. You also probably want to set your shape fill to white.
3Make everything 3D and create a new null object.
4Parent both the shape and the background to the 3D null object.
5Set keyframes for where you want your stamp to end.
6Set the start position to be off screen.
7Add a slider control to the null object.
8Set keyframes of 0 50 and 0 to coincide with the stamp landing on the background.
9Go to the GrayMachine site and copy their inertia script.
10Alt-click on the slider keyframe and paste in the script.
11Add a wiggle expression to the position of the null object, 1 times per second with the second parameter of the null object being parented to the slider control.
12Add the same wiggle expression to the rotation of the null object and multiply it by .1.
13Add a noise HLS to the background to simulate texture.
