RE:Flex Tutorial File: Motion Morph

This project has 1 composition that demonstrates how to accomplish a moving morph using RE:Flex Motion Morph. RE:Flex Morph can only morph from still image to still image, so RE:Flex Motion Morph is the tool for this job.


1) PeteHeadTurn Comp and 2) RichardsHeadTurn Comp.

These are precompositions for the source footage. We would apply any enhancements to the imagery here (brightness, noise reduction, etc.) In this case we've increased the brightness and contrast on each piece of source footage.

3) Motion Morph This composition creates a motion morph between the two movies. By animating the Global Warp % and Global Blend % from 0 to 100% over the course of the sequence, the Pete footage starts out in the Pete shape, and slowly warps towards the Richard shape while slowly dissolving from the warped Pete sequence into the warped Richard sequence (and vice-versa).... while moving!

To notice and do:


4) Motion Morph, variable warp

In this composition we've animated the hair into the "to" shape by frame 4, instead of moving into shape over the whole animation.

To notice and do:


 

5) Motion Morph, var dissolve

In this composition we've dissolved Richard's hair in completely by frame 7.
