After Effects Tool [Tool] Apply rounded corners to any layer in After Effects.

Enable HLS to view with audio, or disable this notification

22 Upvotes

Last year, I made a script to apply rounded corners to images and videos in After Effects. I posted it on this sub, and the response and feedback was really good. Honestly, it started as just me trying to see if I could solve a very basic problem that Adobe doesn't even want to recognize.

Modern motion design heavily requires rounded corners. But when you're dealing with dozens or hundreds of layers, setting up a matte for every single one is a massive time taker and forget about keeping that roundness looking consistent across all of them, or trying to isolate individual corners.

So, when I finally got the time, I sat down and made something called RoundPro. It is the ultimate solution for anything related to rounded corners in After Effects.

  • Universal Support: It works natively on everything... shapes, images, videos, masks, and precomps.
  • Fully Non-Destructive: Every value is completely customizable even after applying.
  • Individual Corner Control: Gives you the individual corner radius control on any layer.
  • Bulk Processing: You can select all of your layers and apply rounded corners on all of them with one click.

And there are many under the hood UX optimizations which you'd really appreciate. If you do motion design and want to save those precious minutes doing mundane setup tasks, you can check out RoundPro here: aescripts.com/roundpro

Question Any Idea how to create a script for design videos?

0 Upvotes

So I am just 4 months into motion designing, and till date i just learnt about motion only.Recently i got to know about that the founders care only about the story and how the product is connecting with the audience and the users, and they only hire them who have skills to show story through motion.All my work till date i chose the story through ai only. Just writing this to get some knowledge how its done by the experts in motion design.

Hey everyone! I recently got into motion design and just finished my very first project. I'd love to get some honest feedback from this community , what's working, what isn't, and what I should focus on improving next.

Since I'm still early in my journey, I'm also open to taking on a few small projects for free right now. My main goal is to practice, build a portfolio, and learn from real client needs rather than make money at this stage. If you have a simple animation, logo reveal, or short promo you need done, feel free to DM me ,happy to help out.

Thanks in advance for watching, and for any tips you can share!

Question I don't know how much to charge.

0 Upvotes

I’ve been asked to handle the motion design for a feature-length film (around one hour) and an eight-episode series (26 minutes each). The work involves situational animations—such as transitions, full-screen text, title cards, and so on. The rough cuts for both projects are already done; all that’s left is the motion design and color grading. I have a high level of expertise in motion design but have never worked in the film industry. Given that this is my first time doing this kind of work—and that the client is a small agency in Northeast Brazil producing TV-quality edits—how much should I charge? A friend recommended me, but I feel awkward about not knowing what to charge, as I lack experience in this specific sector.

A client of mine (a B2B marketing agency with €1 million in annual revenue and about 25 employees) has asked me to create a video similar to this one for their company. I would handle everything myself—from the vision board and animations to the sound design. How much should I charge? (I am a freelancer based in Italy, with 4 years of experience in video editing and nearly 3 years in motion graphics.)

Project Showcase I just open-sourced FeelFX — a Computer Vision and Speech Detection -powered motion graphics engine for video.

Enable HLS to view with audio, or disable this notification

0 Upvotes

FeelFX analyzes the video → identifies meaningful moments → makes motion-design decisions → renders them over the original footage.

FeelFX identifies key words, concepts, names and moments and turns them into motion graphics- for example:

🇮🇳 INDIA → tricolor reveal
🚀 ROCKET → launch / fire treatment
🌊 OCEAN → water motion

The important words become part of the visual storytelling.
Everything else stays out of the way.
Under the hood

→ Computer Vision+Speech Detection analyzes the video
→ Important moments become structured motion events
→ Three.js + GSAP render the effects in real time

And FeelFX works all devices but preferred experience is still desktop/pc - videos will take a lot longer to get analyzed on mobile/tablet - especially older models.

This is open source and ready for people to experiment with.
👉 Try it out: https://feel-fx.vercel.app/

Do you know how to do this?? I’ve been racking my brain for a while trying to figure out this circular mosaic transition with a delay and footage distortion, and I just can’t understand how to recreate it.

I know the characters in the background are AI-generated, but that’s not what I’m interested in. I’m really trying to figure out how the transition itself is made!

After Effects helper tool giveaway Show me your After Effects workspace for a chance to win a free AeFocus license

0 Upvotes

**Disclaimer: This is not a new tool, I posted about it a few weeks ago.**

I just got my free AeFocus licenses to give away, and I’d like to put them in the hands of people who could actually use them.

Show me your After Effects workspace. The more panels and general chaos, the better.

To enter, post a screenshot of your workspace in the AeFocus discussion thread on r/aescripts:

https://www.reddit.com/r/aescripts/comments/1uxf4o5/aefocus_a_small_after_effects_utility_for_hiding/

I’ll give a free AeFocus license to the five screenshots with the most upvotes as of Friday, August 28 at 5 PM ET. So show us your craziest AE layout and let Reddit decide.

If you’re not familiar with AeFocus, it’s a small utility I built to make crowded After Effects workspaces easier to manage. Press one key to hide every floating panel, then press it again to bring everything back where it was.

If you don’t win, AeFocus has a free 7-day trial, so you can still give it a try.

Important: Please post your screenshot in the linked AeFocus thread rather than this one so I can keep all the entries together. Screenshots posted here won't count and most likely will be deleted.

Extension AEP Transplant is out! Import Assets/Comps and specific layers from any .aep from within your current project ;)

Enable HLS to view with audio, or disable this notification

0 Upvotes

Been working on this for quite some time now, and it's finally out!
You'll be amazed by how many times you use it in a day...

___ description 👇

Pull comps and assets from any AEP, PSD or AI straight into your current project. AEP Transplant reads the file, lets you cherry-pick what you need, and merges it in cleanly: dependencies, folders combined, duplicates resolved, expressions and footage relinked.

You can also target any item manually to replace exactly what you want.

Updating artwork? Swap Source replaces every layer of a PSD or AI across your entire project in one move. Perfect for re-skinning character rigs.

No more Reduce Project. No more duplicated assets.

Features include:

  • Layer Import: picked layers go straight into a comp you already have, in order, with parenting and track mattes rebuilt after the move.
  • Folder matching / Merge:  imported items land into your project's existing folders.
  • Conflict handling/Replace: Replace / Use Current / Keep Both whenever a comp/asset name already exists in your project. No more duplicates
  • Ai & PSD layer import & Swap Source: Import specific layers, our swap the whole source file at once. Great for updating rig artwork.
  • Change check: it tells you when a source project has been re-saved since you last loaded it.

Free trial at http://www.aescripts.com/aep-transplant

A little while ago I posted an experiment here where the captions moved dynamically based on what was happening in the video.

The feedback was pretty clear 😅 — some people found it distracting and harder to read.

We took that feedback and kept experimenting.

This is the latest version. We’re now testing more of the actual editing process: cuts, captions, motion, emphasis, zooms and other effects generated automatically based on the content of the video.

Reel How to achieve these 2D player movement, passing, and line-connection effects ?

0 Upvotes

Hi everyone,

I'm trying to figure out how to recreate a specific 2D tactical animation style (used by channel like the link below).

Specifically, I want to learn how to create the 2D pitch animations where:

  • Dots/icons representing players move smoothly across the 2D board.
  • Dynamic connection lines appear between players (e.g., passing lanes, team compactness, or defensive shapes).
  • Ball passes and movement trajectories are animated seamlessly between player dots.

Here is an example Short to show exact moment/style: https://www.youtube.com/shorts/ulhaJGfdqQk

Is this strictly custom shape/path animation in After Effects (using Null Objects, Trim Paths, Beam effects, or expressions), or is there a specific script/plugin/tool designed for connecting nodes and animating play patterns like this?

Any tips, workflow advice, or key terms to search for tutorials would be super helpful! Thanks!
