If you can load a bitmap with an alpha channel (or the image and alpha channel could be loaded in 2 separate images) into some programming language software such as the Lazrus IDE or maybe python (maybe AI could help create the code), you could make it read the image with alpha channel and make it output a specified number of output images. eg. so it could split it into a number of layers (eg. 5 or 10, or in theory more but it would get slow to do or more manual work importing and positioning them if there’s no script to do it in After Effects). So based on the depth map channel for each outpu ..read more

I don’t want to use the well known projection mapping technique with the camera, light and white 3d solids, since the image is complex. It’s not just some planes, where you can get away with traditional After effects projection mapping or Vanishing ..read more

Thank god for CopyCat. Sure, some time sink went into waiting for it to do the calculation but throwing super fast moving roto work through dailies is hell. Many eyes are always going to be better than your own. Letting copycat handled the blowing grey cape in front of a nearly equally grey ocean was a huge help for me. This allowed me to move on to more creative based tasks and reduce burnout. Don’t be afraid of AI. There’s always going to be a need for someone to drive the AI. I predict a very near future where being an AI Jockey is actually a thing ..read more
