Would it be possible to use super comp, and then render ONLY the subject? It’d be so amazing to use stills from an unreal engine scene that I’m going to place my subject in and do the super comp edit so that the subject fits in unreal perfectly without having to do a bunch of steps in UE.
It's not possible at the moment - Supercomp was built with the intention that it's the final step in compositing. That doesn't mean we can't add that sort of functionality in the future though. We'll pass your request on to the team.
I cant get thru it im stuck at 21:33 LOLOLOL talk about a 120jump RED GIANT always smasing me in intervals of 4 to 7 years BAM!!!! Smashed my particles and Im banged up for awhile
It's difficult to composit if you're losing composure - but seriously, what he showed off would make any grown man or woman weep. And 36:15 flat-out deserves a human sacrifice or two, what even on earth is going on here
This video alone along with the dudes fun personality just made me purchase this whole pack. So excited to use it for my upcoming films. Long time fan and customer of Red Giant :) I lost my mind at 36:15 you dont know...oh my god. I can't even talk rigth now
I just wonder why adobe doesn't make these tools by itself, to really improve and speed up their software... Red giant, you should make your own editing and compositing NLE. great job on new plugin!!
Dang Man, you are so good! You have perfect command of the English Language with most perfect articulation, to the point, no filler, easy to understand Instruction I have ever heard! LOL No question, the best tutor anywhere! Cheers again!
It is a very good plugin! I think though, it lacks something important... You can't create a 3D camera within Supercomp. You cannot apply lights. You cannot 3D or 2D track. I don't know if Supercomp works with Mocha for planar tracking... You cannot place layers in 3D space in Supercomp so you can move them using 3D cameras. Almost every After Effects project uses 3D cameras and lights. I don't think if you can apply camera projection to the Supercomp layers..... I don't know if you can work with 3d layers withing Supercomp... If this plugin can incorporate all these, it will probably be the best plugin in the film industry market..
@@dashidoshi This is a composition plugin - you already have pre-composited or rendered all elements including lights and camera movement and you want to combine them all.
I've never giggled with delight watching an after effects tutorial continuously. Stu! dude you rock! The VFX Suite rocks. I am a blooming data scientist using AE to build data scenes ... this is such an amazing tool set to make things look realistic. Love it.
This video is brilliant because it goes through all the fundamentals of integrating objects right and convincing. I've passed this to my students. Thanks!
I don't know about the other things, but the pain that I had with all linear, log etc. gamma in after effects... ohhh this is the most awesome plug-ins ever!
@@diogosa7159 I hear you, but remember that we're not trying to recreate the stuff that AE already does well. Feel free to let us know what blend modes you'd like to see in Supercomp!
@@prolost Its understandable, and so far everything was managable making precomps with the after effects. Sometimes it became just a bit frustrating to be required to do so for example adding a shadow pass layer to the composition, I wanted to edit it by itself but comming in white and grey scales I ended up making a precomp with it and the background footage in multiply There were also other elements that I needed for different compositions where the footage didnt have any alpha and I really wished to have multiply right there I'm not saying that I can't leave without it, just that it would increase the process at least for me, oooor I'm doing something wrong (high chances) im new in the area
@@diogosa7159 Sounds like you're doing everything right! Multiply is a very useful blend mode. We'll give some thought to how Supercomp might make working with Multiply layers easier. Thanks for the feedback!
sometimes you have this moment when you see a new piece of software and you are like .... how ... where .. when ... why .. what ? .. big respect to the one who coded this tool sometimes its like watching penn and teller doing a magic trick you enjoy but you have no clue about how it is acomplished. thx for sharing this video demonstrating the this piece of software
Indeed. Be sure to watch the follow up video showing off newer features that have been added since this video was made: th-cam.com/video/tOa46VTjyl8/w-d-xo.html
at 22:38 MIND BLOWN! Thank you so much for saving unnecessary precomps and making a project heavier with pixel transparency, and blending frames all into a single UI on VFX suite. Thank you very much!
when i click my footage and then click effects supercomp, it creates a supercomp solid layer but then when i click the footage in the supercomp window, it does not show in the preview in the supercomp window, the square preview window inside supercomp stays black and then when i add something like a colour correction it don't change anything in my scene, even if i push all the settings to the max, nothing happens :( sometimes i see a upside-down blue version of my footage and then it goes away
FUN to watch the entire episode, not only because it's a great tool but mainly because of the excitement in your voice! YOU ENJOY YOUR WORK AND IT SHOWS!
This is an elegant and ingenious plugin without a doubt. The problem I see is for a lot of meat and potatoes green-screen work (particularly for templates used by video editors as opposed to compositors) this is too much. In some AE templates all you need is a lightwrap plugin in tandem with your keylight and that works. Again this plugin does beautiful and amazing things that take forever to do in a manual setup - but I feel like Red Giant should have kept the individual plugins exposed as well if you need them (particularly the Composite wizard effects) Not everyone is working on Star Wars or the composite to end all composites. We just need some granular tools for some of the more mundane stuff. I think Red Giant isn't really considering all of the workforce. I get it, you want a Game of Thrones looking splash screen and a ton of people to sign up for subscription. The fact is there is just a whole other sector of the market that needs a little less power sometimes. I'd love both options for the cost of entry.
Oh man, can this is a nice plugin. But this would be so much easier to do in fusion or another node compositor. I mean, this plugin really represents how AE needs to be changed. The way it works with layers and precomps is clumsy... This plugin should be how AE functions natively.
Am I missing something? There doesn't seem to be a multiply mode. How are VFX artists supposed to comp things likes shadows and AO? It's practically unusable. I love these features, but I'm rarely able to use supercomp because of this.
Yes, sorry about that. Supercomp doesn't (yet) work with 3D layers. If it's a model you've imported, like an OBJ or GLB that you're rendering with AE's new Adnvanced renderer, you can use the Calculations effect to get the 3D layer into Supercomp as this tutorial shows: th-cam.com/video/ly40nyicW3Y/w-d-xo.html If it's a normal AE 3D layer, you can follow this tutorial here: th-cam.com/video/InyNouL6g1s/w-d-xo.html Tips for better tweaking in that situation here: th-cam.com/video/qTAeqpQLZhA/w-d-xo.html
so there is a max to the amount of layers you can be editing at once right? im trying it for the first time and can only do like 26 layers before it automatically disables one and replaces it with another layer from source layers, and also when it does it layer replacement thing it removes all the plugins you added, please help
AE is using an alphabetical labeling system for each layer it feeds to Supercomp. So, yes, we ran out at 26. Unfortunately, in this current iteration, you'll need to precomp some of your layers to get over 26.
Finally it arrives!!!...I literally lost my count on how many times I had searched youtube for a trick to properly match FG to BG. This is by far is the best answer to all my research. It looks freaking awesome to be true. ..Respect "The Red Giant".
I'm using it now and it's really good, super fast and a lot of options. I would only add an alpha/lumma matte features or at least copy the properties if you're using mattes in the comp. I have been having to precompose many layers just because of this missing feature. Other than that, it's awesome.
How basic comp tools such as lightwrap are not included in AE is beyond me. I’ve also started to think of the tree map as a node compositor in order to save some sanity. Keeping track of precomps is not fun in AE.

Waiting for you for an Amazing show or Tutorial using supercomp by redgiant. Thanks
Lol
Can you please make a video?? I really want to see the plane clip as well as the volcano one
At this point you won't even need the kid!
Will Supercomp ever be available for Davinci Resolve?
I loved this. Great examples. This will save tons of time when compositing! You're also pretty funny in this video.
One thing I like about it is that it's super awesome. wow
Thank you so much! unbelievable!

Do a supercomp is basically a comp shot in a comp shot like in hitfilm
yes you can precomp in AE as well.. but this allows for better integration between layers than precomps
@@shadowproductions969 ah cool
12 effects in the wheel and not one of them is "Orange Solid". The orange solid option better be in an update! (LOL)

Totally I agree. Hope Adobe hear this. Thanks
How have I been sleeping on this.... Getting this ASAP
High5-ing a week later. Same here!
This plugin doesn't work for me! In the supercomp window, all layers appear black. And any changes are not applied to the layers.

jesus dude he's not god
It’s designed to work with whatever you do in the AE comp. Your 3D animation, lighting, etc are still handled by AE.
UH that would be a new software....
@@harryjf I tried with a simple camera and a bg layer, the bg layer doesnt react to the 3d camera in supercomp, also doesn't recognise lights

The best part of this video is how happy Stu is! Also, the whole plugin, that's also the best part.
This has got to be one of the best after effects tutorials I've seen. It's so clearly explained

Ok, got it. If I want 3d scenes, I first have to precomp all layers, then it works.
Stu! 36:22 I just started screaming here at my computer! Damn, you nailed it!
Haha, same here! I had to show my wifey, who is completely not interested in this stuff, lol. I just got so excited!
Same. Wow.

@36:12 Blown away. Literally.
Same.

so so....cool ...just wow
Depth map support? We should be able to assign depth maps to all layers and composite them with correct depth.
Great suggestion!
Also more blend modes would be great to avoid precomps at all

Mind blown. Game changer. I'm in!
Hi everyone ! I have an issue, when I add my layer in supercomp, it appears in the supercomp Preview but not on the main preview...Any idea?
My mind is blown! I think I lost my mind. Anyone sean a brain lying around anywhere?
i have brilliant idea how about unpremult and premult in the pie menu stack.....instead of that edge erode
My favorite plugin being explained with master Stu! BTW the dislikes on this video are probably by HitFilm owners :D
Oh man... the amount of hours and layers I could have saved....
Fantastic!!!
Well, I guess there is a god. Here's proof
It's all great, but how to make transparent background in supercomp?
This is my favorite tutorial for anything in the universe.
Super informative and funny tutorial. Lots of (ma)zingers in this tutorial 🙃

31:50 is just Stu messing with the orange rectangle, but only as a sword. I see you trying to sneak that in....Stu
i just found this and i was giggling the entire way through will be purchasing
It really is a game-changer for compositing in After Effects!
It started with DV Rebel's Guide and now Stu does it again...
Bravo. I'm hoping to start a production company by the end of the year and THIS looks like a great investment.
I can't tell you how much fun i had watching it
Tedius. Use the subject as light wrap technique is much easier with better results.
what sorcery is this ? Mind freaking blown
I love this. wasn't keen at 1st until I saw how much time it saves especially the separate32bit float on super comp only
