Iam having a weird problem with the animation curves in AE. I’ve never come across such a problem with curves before, and iam not sure how to explain it. However I have a screen of it to explain it even further.
The problem is when I set keys for example for the position of an object on 3 (or more) different places on the timeline all the keys in between the start and the end key have splitted(tow) points on the curve. Iam hoping for some answers to solve this, I had no luck searching the web.
thx in advance,
I am looking for place where i can buy pre-animated rigs, skin weights, etc. I am not just talking about mocap animations, i am more into cartoony style animations.
Thank you
BrandNewSchool recently finished this first spot from advertising agency Arnold’s new Jack Daniel’s “Label Story” campaign … I love the design and transitions. Watch in full HD.
First of all, I’ve made the ramp as a passive collider and the box as a nCloth with rigidity of 10 (is that engough to make a solid object??).
Than I figured out that you can assing a friction map to the nRigid node. I attached a ramp texture with a gradient from 0 to 1 but it seams not to be working.
Do you guys have any idea what am I doing wrong? Or a better idea on how to make this effect?
Thanks in advance! 🙂

I have another problem with Nuke. I really HAVE TO render my outputs to QT. Problem is though I set the file to be 25 fps in my write node’s advanced settings FCP sees the files as 59.97 fps. What did I fail to set up?
And please do not tell me to switch to frames as this is not really an option.
