Star Wars Hyperspeed Tutorial: The "No-Echo" Method, After Effects

The Echo Effect to create long streaks is normally the way you'd recreate the jump to lightspeed, but I think I've found a better, more controllable way. And also, the Hyperspace tunnel can be done entirely in AE with no plugins! When I was researching the VFX History of Slitscan, I realized that the "standard" After Effects tutorials for #StarWars hyperspace are often slow and hard to art-direct. In this tutorial, I throw out the old methods and use Shape Layer Repeaters to create perfectly controlled star streaks. I also dive into the NEW 3D Parametric Mesh tools in After Effects (v26) to recreate the iconic "blue tin foil" hyperspace tunnel using a free Adobe Substance material. In this video, you’ll learn: How to use a repeater on a shape layer. How to create a star field from a single line. Building a 3D Hyperspace tunnel using a Cylinder Mesh and Substance Materials. How to handle the "Flash to White" transition and deceleration. ------------------------------------------------------------ ▶️ If you want to know more about SlitScan, check out my VFX History episode:    • VFX History: Slit Scan   ------------------------------------------------------------ ⬇️ Download the project: Ko-Fi: https://ko-fi.com/s/23227b2bc5 🎁 Bonus: Free step-by-step PDF: Ko-Fi: https://ko-fi.com/s/865545991d ------------------------------------------------------------ 🔖Chapters 00:00 Travelling across the galaxy 01:12 Drawing stars 03:41 Jump to lightspeed 07:11 Hyperspace tunnel 11:15 Arriving at your destination I'm an Adobe Community Expert - which means you can find me on the Adobe forums if you need any help. https://community.adobe.com/t5/after-... #AfterEffects #StarWarsVFX #Hyperspace #VFXTutorial #MotionGraphics #AdobeAfterEffects #StarWarsTutorial #SciFiVFX #AdobeCommunityExperts
