I thought that was just like predator. Great effect! Can you do that with effects lab pro not the composite thing?

[TemporalCoder]

sorry, no. C-Lab or Vision Lab only

[dandantrashcan]

Could these same methods be applied in After Effects? All AE tutorials only explain how to do it with a greenscreen

[TemporalCoder]

I would say yes, but i don't have AE. The technique should still apply, i assume AE has a displacement filter.

[TemporalCoder]

Sorry for delay. I have tried to make this error, but can't, so sorry don;t know how to fix it. try fxhome forums.

Lol, that RDJIM is so funny!

I bet he gets all the chicks!

If he died, loads of people would miss him -- that's for sure!

This sarcasm thing really is easy.

@legofoot09 No, and they have stopped making this program, There is new version called Hitfilm, you can download demo.

I shall be making a new tutorial for the same effect using adobe after effects soon.

I dabbled around with this "Predator" technique years back, using I believe After Effects CS3. It's pretty sweet and easy to do. Well, as long as the camera is stationary.

excellent vid! is it possible to do with Adobe premiere?

i know this is a late reply, but what you do is the person who's invisible goes on top. hope that helps.
