Re: BCC Glint - How to move without background

Hi,

Because the Glint is a threshold based effect, you'll need to be a little creative to achieve the intended goal of adding the glint to the talents' smile.

With AE as host:

• create a new comp
• create a new black solid color layer (although the color of the layer isn't that important)
• select the paint tool
• double click the layer to open it in the paint mode
• set the brush to about 5 pixels and the color to white
• create a single paint spot somewhere in the layer - the middle works fine for this
• enable the paint on transparency option in the paint filter
• apply the Glint to this comp and set it up so that you have only one glint the size that you need
• precomp this composition (select move all attributes) - name it Glint
• place the "Glint" comp over the talent and drag it into position

I hope this helps.

Peter.
