lol stuoid question, but how do you round edges on the little videos?:D

[flowershavesacs]

there are a few different ways to do it, especially now depending on what after effects you have. but I think at the time i was just using a rounded square mask from illustrator on each one (make one and duplicate it and replace)

now with the new Shape Tool, you can control how rounded the corners are, and use that layer as a matte.

not a stupid question, though. it's not as easy as it should be.

Ah cool =) thanks

ah, those are all hand drawn elements that i arranged in 3d space. it's a matter of having the anchor points in the right place. it's kind of not what after effects is meant for, so it can get buggy. but just get good with the camera tool and then it's trial and error

I mean the animations not the title screen, the robots?
