Yesterday i was watching some of this year VCA wining videos. Some of the effects used were incredible; you guys really know what you’re during. So here’s my question. Did you guys used tutorials to do those effects? Are they plugins? i just finished my first amv and someday i want to do some of the effects you guys use. I have Adobe Premiere Pro 1.5, After Effects 6.0 and Photoshop CS. i only know how to use Premiere so far.

Thanks for your Time.

Premiere Pro and Photoshop 5.5 baby!

(... But knowing how to make paths in Photoshop instead of using the polygonal lasso for everything would have helped.)

Hey Scintilla,

i saw your Eva bebop video. that was an awesome video, and it was really clever. i believe you sad that you did it using Photoshop. i thought Photoshop was for pictures. Any way your vid is one of my favorites.

Photoshop is for still images as you said- which can be integrated into AMVs efficiently, as AEO:EB has proven.
It's very useful to AMV making.

Photoshop to make the images -- Premiere Pro to put them in order and move them around.

i saw an effect that was very interesting. i saw this effects several times but the latest one that i can remember is by istiv sprit never dies vid. the effect was when istiv overlaid another footage that looked like a cutout put onto a footage. I don’t know how to explain it but istiv uses it several times in the vid. so i was wondering is there a name for this effect and was it done by using Photoshop.

Image Matte or Track Matte, most likely.
