Hey Ben, on the paper texture, did you add a grain texture? If so, was it your grain brush or dissolve? It looks really cool, and I'm having trouble replicating it.

@BenMarriott 5 лет назад

There a repeating grain brush in the shading on the ufo, nothing on the actual paper texture. You can download the grain brush for photoshop here: bit.ly/2Ez72WO Hope that helps! :) Please let me know if I misinterpreted your question. :D Thanks for watching! :D

Ben, I must have seen thousands upon thousands of tutorials on youtube over the last 20something years - this one, with the nice music in the background, you, casually explaining stuff, and the graphics that are so nice to look at must be one of the nicest and most chilles tutrials I've seen in my life. Hats off. Well done.

Just found this tutorial and it's great! I love using real textures in mograph. I did want to share that I have used fractal noise and a luma key to Generate some nice looping grainy BGs! Mega high contrast and keying out darker with a ~255 threshold is the key and then animating/looping the evolution seed gets that jumpy grain. Lots of control and easily reusable over anything. Thanks for the great content!

@JacobCarlson 2 года назад

Just in case anyone else runs into the same issue I did with looping a texture. Make sure to create the keyframe on the second to last frame of the texture comp BEFORE deleting the last keyframe. If you do it on the reverse order, you'll be stuck with a comp that just plays the first frame. Hopefully this helps someone who runs into this like I did 😊😊

@luffwoto Год назад

To anyone that's having issues where you get a missing frame in your animated texture after you've done property > LoopOut > Cycle - you need to make sure your paper texture comp length matches the frames per second of the main comp. For example my paper texture comp was 20 frames long, but my main comp settings showed 25 frames per second - so I was getting blank missing frames when I looped the paper texture comp. I changed the paper texture comp length to 25 frames long in its comp settings, duplicated the paper texture to fit the increased length in the paper comp, then went back to the main comp and did everything Ben says to do and it works without an annoying frame gap.

@bigfootsaxe3119 3 года назад

At 3:20 I've tried making a seamless loop that extends past 16 frames using this method (from the video), but I run into the same problem every time. Step 1) I right-click on timeline > select time > select enable time remapping Step 2) enable new keyframe on second to last keyframe > delete last keyframe Step 3) hold alt + click on stopwatch > press expression language arrow > scroll to and select property > select Loop Out "cycle" It loops, but my problem is that the loop has one frame where it goes blank or rather skips over one frame. I swear I have I've checked over this video and my notes several times over, but I don't understand what I'm doing wrong that it's not looping nicely. EDIT - So I ran a few tests with both an 8 frame loop and 16 frame loop (both running at 25 frames per second) on a 72 frame long timeline. For some reason the 8 frame loop runs seamlessly whereas the 16 frame loop will go blank or skip every 15th frame and then restart the loop cycle every 16th cycle. Could the speed of 25 fps be screwing up my 16 frame loop cycle?

Love this tutorial. I'm experiencing a really weird issue though - my texture is vanishing for a frame in between loops when I'm at the time re-mapping phase. Have tried everything to fix but am getting nowhere. Very frustrating.

@mspo_ 4 года назад

@Múmu So I found that if you rearrange the order of the layers in the composition with the looping frames it fixes it for some reason-- no idea why but it worked for me lol!

@Patowtow 4 года назад

@@mspo_ Oh what? You're right - I was having the exact same problem and then I just swapped two of the frames and boom! Fixed. Thank you :D

@jonpharis991 4 года назад

@@mspo_ Thanks! I hate that that worked, but glad there's an answer! Haha!

@ryanwehner9172 4 года назад

The issue is that time remap automatically makes keyframes for the length of the composition which includes the non-visible end frame of a comp. Two easy solutions: Inside the texture comp, drag the last layer(s) to be one frame longer than the end of the composition. This will fix the blank frame. You can also change the last time remapping keyframe to be one frame less than it is. ie) 6 rather than 7.

Hi Ben - can I ask a super noob question? 😂 You’ve got a real nice hover effect working on your space ship - what expression do you use for a gentle hover? I’m trying to make objects float in a zero-gravity environment for a project of mine but I’m struggle to get the gentle up and down effect. I found a few expressions online but I’m not sure how to alter them to get the effect I want.

@lawrydenyer 2 года назад

Hey Ben, I know this is an older video but I have a quick question. In regards to the first method where you copied the image of paper that you painted over, could you add a wiggle expression on the rotation and then posterize time so that you also get rotations without having to manually duplicate the image and rotate it every time? And if so, what parameters might you suggest? wiggle(1,180) and perhaps a posterize time of 12? Would you even need the posterize time to make it more kind of gritty and less smooth? Anyways, love your videos and they are all super helpful, I am hoping to take your class at some point!

you're missing one step! You have to put the one keyframe before the last. If its still doing the same thing, try moving it to the left one more frame.
