How was this created?

Hey, I'm not too sure if this is the right place to post this but I have recently came across this random song and the music video was actually really enjoyable to watch. I know it contains some videography based transitions but how were those paper like transitions created? I'm really curious as I'm getting into editing/animation and only create lyric music videos for now but I'd love to add videography to my personal projects as well and maybe produce something like this one day 🙂 Here is the link to the music video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NwxTgf_J_vY&list=RDMMT1p-21a1Qeo&index=6 Any replies, thoughts, opinions, or whatever will be greatly appreciated 🙂

Nothing specific there. Just a bit of 3D tracking and the rest is indeed just clever timing and using freeze frames/ time remapping to get the frames for the posters and photos. The only more elaborate thing would be the grafitti effect, but even that looks like basic AE with a cartoon effect slapped on. Really basic stuff. You just should not expect a comprehensive tutorial on it, but ratehr would have to peice it together from individual ones that explain tracking, toonification and so on.

Hey, thanks for the reply 🙂 I could kind of tell the cartoon effect was slapped on there using AE. Now I'm not too sure if this is the reason why but you could kind of see it move as the camera moved away from it, I was like "yep AE" mainly because I've used camera tracking before and had to deal with certain objects or text moving hahahaha. I guess with the posters and photo effects I just have to play around a bit 🙂 I'll definitely look up some tutorials to get some more knowledge about this stuff as I'm familiar with Premeire Pro and AE but I do struggle sometimes. Thanks a lot for having a look at the video I appreciate it! 🙂

Yes, the tracking on the graffiti image floats a little bit, particularly as she is walking away from it.

For the transitions where she pulls away a flat image of the preceeding scene, you could of course do it old-school. Shoot in chronological order, take a colour printer to the shoot and print each frame while the next shot is prepared. No post production required!

But the obvious way is to track the still into each transition. Ideally, get the talent to hold a green card with tracking markers on it. Then track a chosen still from the preceding shot into that green card as she does the movement to pull it out of frame. A more elegant approach would be to make this transition seamless, so you never see a cut between the preceding shot and the new shot with the card. But most of the transitions in this video are a little more obvious, with a defined cut from the preceding shot to the card, which are similar but not identical..
