First Clone test with After Effects

[ProGamerHaloFan123]

ummm.this rocks, dude wat did u use. adobe after effects or something else?

[LucasAHardy]

I sent you a video of what I did the other day. Maybe give that a try?

[ChickensHeadless]

awsomeees.

[gz6p]

At 0:13 it's Scorpions voice.

[SSBBmaster10]

Are they playing mortal combat?

[paules357]

mortal combt???? =)

[MrDarcyzPP]

Since it's been two years since you've done it, maybe you could make them older now. Like longer hair and mustaches, and funky clothes like have one dressed like Elton John and another one dressed like Boy George Michaeal and another one like Modanna and another one like Slim Pickins.

[funnycatsvid]

looks cool but it would be even cooler if they interacted more with each other

[mikiemoo]

I know, I was going to follow it up with a better one considering this was done in 2006. I need to sit done and make a new one I think, long over due lol

[twistedwest1]

how you do that how you get the guys in the back?

[supercrazyguitarguy2]

The guys in the mack are different people

[MrDarcyzPP]

Where's the mack?

[MrDarcyzPP]

You sneak up on them.

[kompa2004]

its a good one

[Konstantin500]

(Mortal Kombat) XD

[guitarussia]

for a first time really not bad ;)

[theyacstacommish]

thats cool I can do it in Pinnacle Ultimate 12 to Im gonna try that sooner or later but nice video

[caninemd]

thats pretty good. a bit motionless and boring but put together very well

[carlichan21]

woah good job ! thats cool !

[BoxingdayinC]

crazy awesome

[Guitarfreak365]

nice start maken a movie you have some talent

[SharpedJack]

haahha good video!!

[jloveboy99]

this cool

[staghound]

I think it would be impressive if you had one of the guys in the back throw something like a box of tissues or something up towards the front. You can make it seem like it's supposed to hit one of the front guys but narrowly misses them. Then the front guy can react.

[mbnasir6]

Lol your playing Mortal kombat!

[icklerob]

lol@playing with yourself, great video

[SillyPhilly123]

how much does this program cost?

[hotxxxx]

um i think AE 7.0 is $999 in the US in other words a 1000 big dollas

[Gamerkid2112]

0.o

[dannyBoY712]

30 day free trial that most people use.

[shadyman2000]

I mean I have played with myself in the past but this is rediculous

[mikiemoo]

[Icepummel]

[icemanfan5]

wearing different clothes gives a better effect, but overall, great editing

[CarlMungo]

I disagree.

[Rickyboyce]

[ullklutt]

Fun! I'm gonna do four clones playing super smash bros :)

[ShariLee]

[SSBBmaster10]

@ShariLee Adobe After efffects. But you can do it with windows movie maker

[jachichacin]

[basen01]

MORTAL KOMBAT! I have every game except number 4, and my friend has it and he won't sell it to me, lol. But on topic of the video, really good!

[LoLChronosanLoL]

[JohnArneVan]

That was awesome.. =)

[AlumDixonP]

WOOW that was amazing! im also making effects but just learned how to clone, but i have to do that tommorow becausse its earily in the morning

[davidandesther]

nice

[Met182]

Looks excellent, very impressive! I've not learnt how to "cross the streams" ;-) yet...did you not find any decent screen grabbing software for the tutorial? Would have been cool to see.

[mikiemoo]

I found one (forgot the name) and it crashed about 6 times so I gave up in frustration.

Its really easy to replicate, 4 different clips, one is main foreground clip and the other 3 are masked. I might give the tut another go.

[rezurrxtion]

how did you get front you's to shower over the back you's

[rezurrxtion]

ok i totally was not thinking at all when i typed that. what i MEANT was... how did you get the front you's to show over the back you's

[rezurrxtion]

did you just keyframe around their heads?

[mikiemoo]

I keyframed the mask around the indiviual clips.

[maolyn666]

Not bad, not bad at all!

[ultrajumboshrimp]

the only thing i would say to improve is to have each one of u be wearing a different shirt :) that would be awesome.

[altamashurooj]

that was perfect

[SicTransit983]

very clean, cloning isnt easy, specially with lighting. but  it was clean.

[DEADLYB0NER]

fuck you you son of a bitch!!!

[mikiemoo]

Whats with the comment? Are you special needs? Are you drooling all over your Mr Men top?

[DEADLYB0NER]

wtf u talking bout nigga?

[wesly110]

Lol Mortal Kombat ... :P

Who won SCORPION?

Nice Vid!

[mikiemoo]

Cheers :) scorpian rocks man!

My fav character ;)

[wesly110]

Mine Is Raiden

[NSNH]

is there a way to do that in virtualdub?

[hailmattpitts]

all it is is masking but masking is awesome and takes some time to master so i give you credit for awesome cloning

[dynasty321]

YO U R MY IDOL!!!please teach me

[mikiemoo]

hahaha

Like Dabbi said, its not that hard ;)

If somebody can link me to decent screen capturing software i'll do a tut. Tried Captivate and couldnt convert the swf to mov/avi so I could edit it. Tried Camstudio and it kept crashing :(

[nooboarder]

Try Camtasia, works for me pretty good.

[Dabbi1337]

Not hard dudes, use a still shot and the garbage matte.

[deuce591]

Awesome job man!! Did you use a green screen at all? Can you tell us more about masking? I've just started using AE. . .

[mikiemoo]

No green screen mate, just a mask on each clip.

I'm currently making a tut on how I did this, coming soon ;)

[funnyjjk]

that was so good! make a tutorial of how u did it it would be great cuz idk how to lol. plz? lol great job

[mikiemoo]

If I get some time I'll make a tut on it :)

Thanks for the great comment :):)

[streetjustiz]

This is one of the best cloning shit i've ever seen! Like damn! I have AAE 6.5 but i can't seem to learn how to use it for shit! My ass is still stuck wit WMM! If i knew how to use the 6.5 my movies would be a lot more impressive. Good job though.

[mikiemoo]

Thanks man :)

Stick with it, you'll crack it with some practice.

[ernbabjr]

wheew! quadruplets.. how did you do it. can you give me some idea thanks

[mikiemoo]

I used a mask in Adobe After Effects and pre-planned the shots. I had to adjust some of the clips to match each other, like the lightening for example.

Thanks for the comment :)
