Interactive Lighting [AE] - Video tutorial

Î'll show you my method for adding interactive lighting to existing footage. Pretty easy stuff, I am not quite sure what I kept talking about for more than six minutes.

Don't forget to check my website, http://petergerri.blogspot.com/, for more fx tests and video tutorials by me.

very helpful... thanks

how did you make the mask smooth at 1:31?

[PeGeProd]

Hold down CTRL + ALT and do a left mouseclick on the mask point, that will turn all selected points into bèzier curves.

Very useful. Thanks!

But how exactly do I turn a mask path into a bezier mask path? I can't find a working option in the mask settings...

[PeGeProd]

If you're running Windows, CTRL + ALT + left mouse click on the mask point should work.

that's odd. That's one of the things I tried. It doesn't seem to work with me. Another thing that doesn't work on my PC is the maximizing of a window of the workspace. According to the help it's the ` button, but it does nothing...
