I have just started learning Adobe After Effects, and I couldn't find how to do this :
I have a character which looks like walking on a black background. So I want to move the background (or the camera?) to make the walk look realistic. How can I do that?
I can think of a way but I'm not sure :
- I will prepare a very big image (all the possible positions of the background) and move it as an object.
Is this how I should do it? Also I would appreciate a tutorial link.
Thanks for any help !
Edit:
Sorry that I slightly "misworded" the question. Of course my background will not be plain black. It will consist of buildings, streets trees etc. I just need the way to move it so that the character will feel like walking.
Expressions
might help you out. More specifically, you could useloopOut("cycle");
to loop an animation. --- You could animate an object to go by in the background once, and the expression would take care of looping it. – Joonas Jul 22 '14 at 0:21
