---------------------------------------
A tilt-shift lens is one of the craziest lenses you can use on a camera and it gives a surreal miniature feeling to basically anything you point it at. We can recreate this feeling in After Effects with just a few steps and layer on some other creative techniques to make boring stock footage look like it was shot with a cinema camera. I'll show you how to create a completely customizable faux tilt-shift effect and how to optimize it for render time. We'll also look at how to add some cinematic lens effects and distortions for a more analog feel, color grade the footage with Lumetri color, plus how to create a chromatic aberration RGB split. Then we'll learn how to use Photoshop to generate a depth map using AI in order to more accurately blur your shots, and how to use a third-party plugin called Depth Scanner to do the same thing for video.

These tilt-shift shots are soooo pleasing to the eye, it's actually so satisfying to look at.
Ill probably never need to make a shot like this but yet I watched the whole video because it was just so eye pleasing and refreshing to learn something.

Perfect timing. I was searching the internet for a solid tut on this process. Thank you.
Dude... this is honestly an amazing video Jake! Great lessons... Very well done! 👏👏
Great tutorial! Your commentary is so flowy without adding unnecessary info
thank u Jake this is what im looking for, cant wait to watch it
I made a print out of your channel and always return here, your great and talented and I really appreciate your work.
Thanks for this tutorial and sharing good plugins along the way.
Great tutorial! I used this type of fake depth map effect with gradients at the time at my old VFX job, but that depth scanner thing is crazy! I love simple tutorials like this where anyone from a newbie to a seasoned vet can learn something new.
this is dope. ive always tried using different ways of attempting this without nearly as great of a result
Great tut. Thanks Jake!
Man jake i love your work, i have been making videos (part time, i am a doctor full time) for the past 7 years, but i never find myself able to up my editing game, i feel that my style sucks and is not up to industry standard, part of that is because of my job. I hope i can do more this year and learn from your skillshare classes. Thanks for the awesome tutorial
This tutorial was already awesome, and then depth scanner appeared and melted my brain.
Thanks for your job man. This channel is awesome!
Great tutorial! Also love love love the Weird Al print behind you! Respect!
Great stuff, as always. I may need to get that Depth Scanner plugin, that's the kind of stuff we used to dream about existing.
Videographer using the most expensive apochromatic lenses u can find to produce the cleanest video. Editor: Lets just smack some chromatic aberration on that! Jokes aside, a very nice tutorial and cool effects!
I love this effect so much
Jake been knee in your skillshare courses..gotta say they're fire!
Its awesome! it look miniature effects to me and i love it!
Thank you so much jake ❤️
Thats really cool, thank you so much for such value.
Best tilt-shift guide ever, thanks alot =)
Thank You 💜
I recently started learn from your skillshare course... It was very helpful....
Great tutorial, thank you 🙂
Brilliant Tutorial!
That footages looks amazing.
seen this type of content on twitter and it blew my mind off, wondering how they do this kind of shot or how can they achieve this shot. thank you so much for making this tutorial.
I was just wondering today how I'd best create a depth map. This is great, thanks Jake!

Amazing video dude !!!🔥👍
I could make a very funny joke about the title of this video, but won't because I'm too classy.
as soon as I saw Depth Scanner come out I instantly thought of Tilt Shift stuff with the Lens Blur effect!
Depth scanner is killer ❤️🔥 Cool tutorial ❤️
Great tutorial man
Great tutorial
U're a lifesaver man. Thank ❤️
what the hell???? i've been trying to do this same effect in AE for almost a year and in the first minutes of the video you showed us how and so easily. my god. thank you so much!!!!
This is where i learned about Chromatic Aberration, great stuff jake!! everyday learning something, and look i aint even and editor. I'm a programmer, but still great to know!
Great explanation thankyou
My fav❤... I'll be back to watch this
I've Learnt a lot from your videos.
Exactly what I was looking for. Ttsm Jake. 🎉
I simply adore them tilt shift images makes me feel like god playing with the toys
Just perfect!
This video blew me away! And i was supposed to study for my exam in 3 days :D its 2:30 am The Chromatic Abberation effect really opened my eyes. I have to use that more often! And the depth scanner effect.. just wow!

Very Very Nice.

Great 💯💯💯💯
Hi Jake o/ I love your job. It is very useful. Thank´s for everything you do for AE users When I need to send a frame to PS and bring it back quickly, I use Content Aware Fill's "generate reference frame". Then I edit the frame in PS, and just press ctrl+S and close it, and it's automatically edited in AE. I just freeze the frame of reference in AE and that's it hahaha It will have to be like this, until I buy the timelord
A rectangle the size of your WHAT
oh great Jake, I praise you for your dedicated work to make us all better, your talents are far from vain. Im sure your worshipped across the globe ... however thy great one, I have a troublesome question for thee... so when i try to create the depth map with various gradient layers, i have the edges completely white even if i tried to block it out but cant, thus this shows when im adjusting focus to the shot. Is there another way to remove white from the edges???
nice
what is the best focal length for the miniature look?
I got once this efrect without using software , i got it witha kindof binoculars attatched on a cellphone amd did a photo with it from a distance
i mean, i am not seeing where i can use this effect? only if i make animation videos?
Da Vinci Resolve Studio also has a depth map generator if you have that

I've always wondered how they did that in some movies or in an anime like Konosuba
Random and waaay off topic. What kind of har style is that? I want to get that for my son.
I like my tutorials like I like my women... easy to follow and no riff raff! GREAT video!
Wow 😮😮😮😮
Great Tutorial even if not using AE, it is still intertaining BUT i am really getting triggerd by the TO MUCH BLUR In the City xd
Trend: 3d is killing 2d and after effects! Jake: hold my beer!
this looks so funny
What software are you even using?
You can actually generate Depth map for all the frames of a shot. Just render a sequence of the video and then record an action in photoshop where you apply the neural filters.Then go to file - automate - batch and select the action you just created, choose the folder where you rendered the sequence and just wait a few minutes for the depth map sequence.

That's a really interesting idea! Have you tried it? I'm curious how smooth the map is from frame to frame. Is there a lot of jitter?

Dumb question but is there a difference between this and a masked + feathered adjustment layer with camera lens blur? thx
@JakeInMotion
Жыл бұрын
Not a dumb question. Yes, there's a big difference. Feathered masks will not control how much of the frame is blurred, just which parts of the frame are blurred. If you try you'll see the big difference between the two techniques.
if you add posturize time, will it become more stop motiony, miniatury?

Yep. 12fps is a great choice for that.

Only if you want slow motion. The tilt shift effect doesn't need a high frame rate to work.

@@JakeInMotion thank you again. Any chance you would create a tutorial for a depth scanner luma matte transistion? Something along the lines of one image's depth being sliced into a different one from furthest to closest depth. I've been working on trying to make that work.
Even though you placed the locator for your gradient at the horizon, your gradient was still tilted, and that was a little annoying to watch😂. You’ll want to make sure the line between the start and end locators are perpendicular (90 degrees) to your horizonline, that way your gradient will follow the horizon across the image.

Love the miniature stylistic look. Not sure if the Runway ai software auto depth mapping would work with this. Auto generates a depth map to video footage. Going to have to try it and see.
