Re: Invisible Cape

I enjoy watching this tutorial. I'm going to work on doing one also. I like how the shadow was done on the ground.
very very useful tutorial
by Brij nandan
hello Eran.
this tutorial is very useful to make invisible predator,ghost or magician. I think this effect is used very frequently in movies, so we needed it .
Thanks, keep it up!

by Kai Indvik
very cool.
in response to an earlier comment, the way you add an alpha channel to the video file is very simple.
once you have your comp in the render que, click on the output module. the default is "lossless."
under the video options, set the depth to "millions of colors+"
this will preserve the alpha channel.

Regarding Fantastic 4, I don't know if they used AE, but the principles are the same with any effects software.
