I just saw this weird AR iPhone Filter and thought: how do I recreate this effects?

In head it's some sort of:

masking the hand > Echo > Turbulent displace> Vector blur > Colorama > Blend mode type magic..

But unfortunately that's not how it works. Maybe you guys can figure it out?

Still a work in progress. Would love to hear your thoughts and suggestions so far!

The music track is clipping on the timeline (not just the export) in AE:

The levels are set at 0 in AE. When I reduce the levels, the waveform just gets shorter but still flat on top as if the problem is in the audio file, but opening that same file it Audition show it isn't clipped.
In Audition, after zooming out one click, it looks like this:

I tried exporting from Audition as a WAV file and it still comes into After Effects (and Premiere) as clipped. In AE,
I updated my video card driver and it didn’t help. My specs are Win 11 Pro 25H2 (26200.9711), i9-14900K, 192 GB RAM, NVIDIA GeForce RTX 4080 SUPER.
Does anyone have any suggestions? Thank you!

Instead of one layer repeated hundreds of times I have hundreds of unique layers I need this same effect applied to ^~^

Attempted to find something similar on aescripts and older posts but no luck yet.

When you see a title sequence, from a Vox transition, or edit that blows you away, what do you do next?

Curious what your real process looks like, and what's the most annoying part of it.

This has been bugging me for 2 days. I cant finish work because of this issue. Ive searched and tried multiple fixes, none worked.

After Effects 2026

I’m sharing my motion design project and would appreciate honest feedback and suggestions. I’m still learning and trying to improve, so feel free to point out what works, what doesn’t, and what I could do better in terms of animation, timing, transitions, and overall visual quality. All constructive criticism is welcome!

This multidisciplinary project made by Me, Witchgaze and Meljiiit is dedicated to our curiosity about different media approaches. As well as creating a feeling of otherworldly curiosity & childhood nostalgia

we were making clothes out of carton + paper, creating music, constructing rooms, making animations, writing letters, working with aerograph and lots of other materials all together. special thanks to Rayden Vision for the crt

a week in Rīga - collaboration round 2 - 3 čelovečka

I look forward to hearing your comments, thoughts, and questions. I'm here right now to answer them all <3333

Made this motion design for Yaango. Would love some honest feedback and suggestions on what I could improve!

First After Effects project made for my Digital Animation Techniques class in college. Any feedback or critique is greatly encouraged! Thank you!

Hi everyone! I've finally finished my first mixed media animation in After Effects. It’s a recap video of my trip to Spain. I've tried to follow your advice on the old post, and i wanted to share the final result. Let me know your opnion. Hope you enjoy it!

So i switched to after effects 2025 and the preview is smooth but scrubbing is insanely laggy. I even have a video if anyone wants to see how it looks like.

I recently put together this product promo for Arpixa, an agency workspace I'm building.

I focused on the UI reveals, transitions, typography and making the software feel like a polished product rather than a generic screen recording.

I'd appreciate honest feedback, especially on the pacing, visual hierarchy and whether the product comes across clearly.

What would you improve first?

For the second layer, there is a square-shaped hold key frame that I couldn't replicate.

I turned this keyframe back into a diamond, then clicked toggle hold keyframe. It just turned into a one sided hold key frame (flat on the right side, pointed on the left side). Tried to ask AI and search through reddit and couldn't find an answer.

I am creating a project for a client i mistakenly used hlg 2100 color space in premiere pro and dynamically linked some footages to after effects with the same color space. Now i changed the color space back to rec 709 in both after effects and premiere pro but it caused the dynamic linked footage in premiere oversaturated. In after effects the footage are looking fine. I fixed the issue by selecting the linked footage in pp and clicking on interpreter footage and converting them from hlg to rec 709. But there are 100 comps do i have to select them all and fix individually?

Hey everyone!

I’m a motion designer currently job hunting, and I’d really appreciate some honest feedback on my portfolio:

brankovlahov.com

I’d love to hear what you think about the work itself—animation quality, pacing, variety, and whether the reel and selected projects show my skills well. Are there any pieces that stand out, or anything you’d improve or leave out?

I’m also looking for feedback on the website and personal branding/logo. Does it feel professional, and is the work easy to find and watch from a potential employer’s or client’s perspective?

Feel free to be brutally honest. I’m looking to improve, so constructive criticism is very welcome. 😄 Thanks for taking a look!

Need help in relighting the logo to match the environment and change as the cam pushes forward.

The footage is a drone push in and I have done the tracking part pretty well but the 3D logo looks too plain. I want it to be metallic and shiny with a bit of glow so that it fits well with the camera push in. The logo is a glb file and I've added a metallic texture (0.25) to it already but it ain't looking good enough.

I've tried parallel lights and a studio environment light layer but it ain't that good. The screenshot shows how it looks with 2 parallel lights facing on it.

Any yt tutorial or documentation regarding this would help a lot. Thank you :)

Hello.

I just finished to made my chat box for my twitch but the image isn't moving look a bit boring.. i'm looking for some to help me add some glow effects and tiny animations.

If someone is available to help me my DM is open.

Thanks a lot

I'm referencing this scene from Memories (1995), which made a strong impression on me. I'm trying to recreate a similar effect for a project and would appreciate some technical advice.

My current plan is to shoot two takes from the same locked-off camera position using a wide-angle lens. In the first take, a female actor performs a controlled fall to the floor. In the second, another actor mimics catching something. I'd then use rotoscoping in After Effects to composite the shots so that the female actor appears to pass through him.
