Omg thank you! I didn't know it was that easy. I feel bad for not knowing that haha ... View more

I think that is the issue here, I will start doing what you suggested for my other comps. 🙂 I did manage to get around this issue though, what I have done was, instead of adjusting the opacity of the elements inside of the pre comps I adjusted the opacity of the overall comp. So in other words, I didn't double click the pre comp, I selected the pre comps I wanted to make changes to and then pressed "T" to pull up opacity. I'm not really sure what the difference between opacity inside and outside of pre comps is but I managed to fix the issue.   I know I wrote a lot but I hope you guys know what I was struggling with and how I fixed it haha. I'll be sure to make duplicates inside of the project panel from now on!   Thanks, Daniel ... View more

Ya I'm really sorry about my video and explanation earlier I was just so confused. So I've just deleted the flickering on the wiring but that caused my actual flicker to disappear too. ... View more

Ah sorry about that, basically it seems like my pre comps are linked, whenever I edit one all of them change. I hope that makes sense.   Daniel ... View more

Hey, thanks for linking that! 🙂 I just had a look at some of their stuff and I think I found the right one! Thanks a lot, really appreciate it. ... View more

Wow that's a lot of info! Thanks a lot for your time to write all of that. Like you said it doesn't sound like it but it's far more efficient. I had to read through that a few times to fully understand it haha but I do get it now. I'll defo look back at this whenever I need to! Thanks so much 🙂 ... View more

I see, so to sum up it's best to work on each individual animation, BG effect, etc on separate comps right? I just want to make sure I got this right hahaha. Also, Let's use my project as an example, what if I wanted to match the particles with the BG, how would I know whether the particles are matching if I cannot see the BG composition preview? Sorry if this is something straight forward. ... View more

Sorry, I also have a question about separate comps, Let's say I wanted to use a blending mode on a text, would separate comps still work the same way, or would the text have to be created in the same comp as for example the BG?   Many thanks and sorry for going off topic here. I'm really trying to learn here as I'm studying creative media in college. 🙂 ... View more

Hey, thanks for replying! I've actually watched a tutorial to create that wave motion just changed a few things to make it look how I wanted. Then, I added the little dots on the screen which I have animated the position of throughout the whole song. I'm overall happy with the waves but I might change the way the dots move. Do you have any tips on how I could possibly animate the movement of the dots a bit better and in sync with music?   Thanks Daniel ... View more

Thanks for replying! That is defo some useful info 🙂 I'll keep that in mind. The text animation will defo take some time, I will experiment till I find the right ones but from looking at this and using your past experience do you have any fonts you'd suggest?   Thanks Daniel ... View more

Sorry, the vid file was too big had to compress it. Here it is! ... View more

Hey guys! Thanks for the replies I'll check everything out 😊 Thanks for the tips I really appreciate it! ... View more

Hey, thanks a lot for your reply! 🙂 I actually thought of other green card method that you mentioned but wasn't quite sure how all of that works. I honestly would love to recreate this video with a different song but then again I wouldn't wanna copy other producers. That paper effect though is really nice I might have to copy that one thing haha. I'm really happy you guys proved that it's an easy thing to do 🙂 Obviously, all of these are basic and like you said most transitions aren't seamless but I still love the look of the paper one haha. Thanks a lot for having a look at the video 🙂 ... View more

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! 🙂 ... View more
