Hey. I try rotobrush first time and i do not get it working. ( I just doawloded new version of Ae) Same problem as before.

I know in teory how to use rotobrush. I never get red colour.I get with allt( Win 10 16 GB ) minus and red brush but it does nothing.Green color works fine but there is not perfect  selections.and i cannot change them.I have tried several hours with different videos with same reslult.

I have teacher in Udemy who shows how to do and Adobe has good learning videos here.I have looked around web to find answer.

As I think I do everything right but I must make a same misstake all the time.Can somebody help me.please.

Sorry for wrong spelling.I have bought videoclipps..

.Many greetings.

is it a real project or just a training?

Do you have thid problem with any video or just this one?

for training I would suggest to try another video, with better contrast between for/back (e.g. the 5th video in your source folder)

if possible, render please a short fragment (about 10 sec enough) of your original video, put it somewhere (Google Drive, Dropbox or any file keeper which you like) and add a link here so that I (or someone who will join this conversation) can try to find what is the point.

At mine, it's quite late now, so I can continue tomorrow.

Hey ,It is late here too. I am sure I do something wrong or preferenser are wrong .or something I have changed in program.. It is no wrong with program.  I train many other things with it without problem.Today i have only tried rotobrush.

I have no video where I use AE.. but i can make one.short. And I try rotobrush on other photo .

Good night and thank you for caring

It is only course for beginners..

well, video with your using AE would be useful, but the best thing is if you share your project (AE) file with this video. It would allow to see all settings and try to find the issue.

please, make the screenshots with Rotobrush control panel expanded:

1) with general (green) brush win process

2) with alt brush in process

3) the resulting shape

there are many details to check and the easiest way is to see them on screenshot

no, I don't see them 😞

you can add them directly in your post using the "landscape" (mountains with the sun) icon in menu line of the post window.


Anna, if i understood you right you got no screenshot.I sent them as a nswer to your email..

Now I found this way to send.

This with rotobrush controll panel i am not sure you get.

I hope you can see what i do wrong.if not we can continue if you have time.

I go  a course - a long 400 lection. - on AE,... some short in Motion Craphic.

I really want learn AE. It has so many possibilities. to make very good videos

.Boring only use bought videos..

Wish you all the best and write if these screenshots are wrong.or say anything.   Mirja
