Some Suggestions about use After Effects

[cici]

------------Stephor Aynor
To study and use for many years, in the period also produced a lot of things. His is also exploring the use of gradually worked out a set of experiences and personal preferences.
I am not a English native speaker, so in the passage possible have some gammer mistake.
1: white flash: I usually will not be directly used white frame stack, but also on the increase in the original material for a gamma and brightness animation, and then use the stack, so you will see the light of the screen in the first Fanchu white, and then the whole Screen only in white, flashing white disappear as well. Feeling this way quite similar to the transition of optical changes, not monotonous, but the best maintained even in the most white of the time things are vaguely visible, that is not white Yise, length My experience is singular, such as 5,7,9 than double the number of good, blinking into the best Shanchu a difference.
2: In fact, I never rarely use pure cut, usually to 1-2 frame to replace the stack of look-point will be more.
3: color screen: In fact, this is a big topic, we can not generalize, some parts may have to explain in detail.
I try to avoid screen with a white, even black, often with pressure to a very

dark red, blue, and so instead, the specific color by the tendency of video films for a decision. Sometimes feeling of the film-or not dark enough, usually with increased light of the size and the relative proportion of such solutions. Try to avoid or reduce the overall increase dark-absolute manner. The most frequently used tool is the color curve. Certainly not for A small metal or metal word shiny texture, in fact, this is also a big topic. To grasp the principle of mainly metal feel there must be something inside of the dark, that is "not afraid of black gold", followed by as much as possible with a certain number of lights to animation lights up the flow of high-performance reflective textures to replace the animation. And I often use the lights to create a negative value of the dark.
4: Composition: TV image, unless serious performance, power, otherwise make use of non-being, a Perspective on the composition. As far as possible from the clips, the convergence point of view to consider composition, will not be too obsessed with single-screen composition, to the long TV Width ratio, a single lens of the composition is very difficult.
5: voice and screen: voices and images, in particular acoustic environment, and do not have to strictly screen clips counterparts, the general environmental sound first-in, after a. If we say that the rhythm and music clips of the accent, and often under the wave of Screen the shear point stagger 1-2 frame is correct. Important to take your eyes and ears to feel, should not be too persistent and wave-cut plans and point agreement.
6: normal color screen: a normal television screen color on a computer's performance is often too saturated, television is one of the characteristics, the brightness will increase, the protection of the decline. But too much saturated color easy to see greasy, the solution One way this issue is the level of attention to color transition, not only to focus on the color.
7: I remix colores always following those rules:
a: First remove the color, only gray level. adjustment to correct the transition and shades.
b: the color of the first color for good, which is the most part tend to color. For example, distant tone is cold, the foreground is warm. or anti-Instead of a category, is the color of the design process.
c: control of color transition, making the transition is not monotonous and often use color of tools to avoid linear transition.
d: absolute respect for the quality, the above process may not lead to significant decline in quality, otherwise, would rather not transfer, or fine-tuning.
e: to avoid over-adjustment.
8: optical effect: Personally, I prefer hard and fast-changing and always maintain or change (whether this change is large or small) of light effects, and do not like excessively vague, rigid-efficiency. Therefore, in general, if possible , The most reasonable as far as possible their production of light efficiency, for example, the use of Ps painting of several layers, and then boost of the lack of direct access to software plug-in the light efficiency and secondly, to avoid prolonged use of optical efficiency, and good control - The level of efficiency, often even the most simple glow, I will be with a 2-3 layer, brightness and color of a loss of boost.
9: Animation: Animated rhythm arrangements, if not to emphasize the rhythm, not in the same frame animation, but also need to avoid excessive regularity, and excessive coordination. This point, I often stressed that in due course to break the rhythm of the audience. Otherwise, the whole film will Sipingbawen, the lack of impact.
10: Institute of fraud to undermine the law point to little change the lens can be adjusted to control the circle mask the scope of this point on the screen similar to paint.些小may sometimes be breached, but the movement, or But in the whole film feel good, this point needs choice, not only focus on a scene. This can also be introduced next.
11: If possible, before and after the preview at least into the lens. This point in the flint or cyborg such as software, no problem, in other software, or very troublesome.
12: Institute of plagiarism: You can not just copy the form of animation, and so on. Good at copying of the people, all can learn from. For example, color can also be copied, first of all shades to choose close to the screen, suitable for video pictures, films, and then you can directly on the screen for color. Of course, good copy will add it to your understanding, but often not only focused on a copy, copy End after you is difficult to see which part of plagiarism, this is a copy and learn from the distillation of creative ways.
13: Many times, when the need to be considered in the synthesis of authenticity. I personally divided into three ways of the real: real physical, mental and visual real truth. The former two kinds of easily explained, usually refers to the psychological truth we do not have some of the visual experience of the lens, for example, space in the explosion. Space is the real explosion in the film may be different from those we see on those, such a scene, we have no real visual experience, with only some of the visual experience similar to judge, for instance, coupled with the explosion on the planet in space Sense of weightlessness and so on. In the production of such lenses, as some people in cities such as swimming, such as lens, I have to emphasize the general psychological truth, to find suitable reference for the visual experience, often on the screen 70 percent of the true picture is enough to let the audience satisfied with another 30 % Can be considered as a visual effects and Bu Quguan true or not. This topic too slowly to explain the time.
14: the best learning materials in the synthesis. Here are a variety of top film of the best-quality trailer. Sufficient to allow you to color, special effects, composition, and so on a disruptive influence. For example, many people thought that film are all obvious grain, color, as a general calendar.
15: Sometimes, the need for a strong rhythm of the shear, then I will consider whether or not to use broken all the way. In paragraph 2 cut or quick flash of white material between Add to Local 2-3 of the screen or strong color cast Screen, the length of each general not more than two, it could be related to, can also be no relations.
16: some time in the compact but not the ads omit the film, sometimes not consider whether the continuous action, using clips of cause and effect. Lens may be starting a trend, the next to the entrance of the camera has.
17: Institute of reference material production .03 done in the time of 1 min 1 Taiwan advertising, need a bunch of water running through the middle of films and a whole separate, and sometimes flows, and is a scene in the end. For such a complex exercise, no matter what may Kind of dynamic or advanced method of calculation can not meet all the conditions so I take fluid and particle produced a number of Central dynamic effects, make reference to these animated the speed and shape, with hundreds of stars deformation of the ball out of a manual 1 10-minute animation, and the draft. Of course, which also contains another reason, do not be afraid to reconcile trouble hand, the key is to find ways.

18: key: key is a process to maximize the difference, you can test themselves under a layer of black and white to color map whether the plans will become less well key points. This approach can be uniform brightness, it is a pity that in many cases because the accuracy of overflow and other issues, the edge is not very good, or to combine a variety of ways. According to the original important thing is to see how the material differences increase.
19: ink effect: this effect has been discussed by many people, did not intend to repeat what. But after that also saw the need to add one point, the ink part of a halo and I think that is not only part of a blur, often with one point off the assembly line of gamma to undermine the transition will be better results. T-litter and white, decreased parabolic transform, freehand brushwork of the general upward parabolic transformation.
20: I never trust any palette at the display and monitor, regardless of their more expensive. Pal always create a standard color cards, compared with transfer.
21: Sometimes Chi Buzhun elements of a good use of colour, I will make a hue on the key, rendering of the animation, and then selected the best look at the color going.
22: security box only as a reference, in fact every TV show that the scope is different, so is not insurance, and about security box from top to bottom than the safety box even more insurance, some 16:9 television can see about security Things outside the box, titile safe in the flat screen TV out only after the basic composition of significance.

23: Affinity color, I was the most prudent use of yellow, the color if not, then it is easy both soil and dirty, but each TV are somewhat different. Therefore, I will give in warm yellow add a little red, orange instead of using cold non-use of color yellow or strictly control the area.
24: For color and depth of field control, this part is very easy to transfer that led to film a strong bias or color depth of field level too clear, a rough look at that good-looking, not Naikan the Duokanjibian. I therefore suggest that the film should at least check the next day, often when you think OK, come back parameters, is good.
25: a mature film, first of all, there is no obvious shortcomings. If I were in no apparent weaknesses and shortcomings, but will also highlight circumstances, I choose the former. Unfortunately, the start of the election two years I do the latter.
26: I always believe that customers the best understanding of their products, most clearly how their products sell Caihao, which made them more or less the basis of the investigation, not we, as a production staff will be than a Painao Dai They strong. So is product promotion points and moved the target groups have purchasing power, I respect their views, but on the screen and artistic, I can stick to their point of view, they be strong in this area than you why do you look for films.

Can I know what are you 'talking' in this thread? The 'content' doesn't seem to be the same as the title. (Most of them start with 'I' and is this thread about your own opinion / how you use the program, or is about suggestions for After Effects users?)

Thanks.
