I have after effects. I am fairly confident in the editing side of things and am happy applying masking and all the basic stuff. But I'm not so happy with the particle side of things.

Anyway, did you have any ideas on how to do it ?

I am looking for information on creating an effect that would be similar to the effect used in Minortiy Report on the force gun. It seems to shoot out energy that bounced people away. All of you who have seen minority report will know what I mean. It is like a large blue force field bubble that hits...

i think it looks stupid when people of a younger age try and play parts of older characters. Play your age!!!!

I'm 17 and i have just directed 2 shorts with full crews and proper actors. i used 40yr old for a 40 yr old character, a teenager for a teenager etc

not trying to sound too negative but to me the plot is a utter rip of Darkness Falls. Being as it is a LITTLE BOY who is scared of the dark and in both films people DONT BELIEVE HIM and try to CONVINCE him there is nothing there!

Minority Report

wel i have 3D Max - are you sure there is no way to do it in After Effects?

How do you create 3D text in After Effects or Premiere? I want to do it for a logo so it needs to be 3D and not flat. I want it to look like it is made out of gold. how can i do this?

i've done both as it depends on how far the virus has taken them

Thanks for feedback

I have been looking around the web for some prop guns for an upcoming flick. I would like to get them in the UK but the only ones are like £300. I was wondering if anyone had bought cheeper toy ones and turned them into realistic looking ones? If so where did you get them from, websites or anythi...

How do you film the effect where you make loads of people instead of one? For example. Like the effects used in The Forest. Say if i filmed a shot in the woods and then had one person run onto screen. and then the same actor comes out from another bush, and then the same actor comes from another bus...
