Doing a Walking Through a Wall Effect with After Effects
In this video, we will show you how to create a walking through walls effect using Adobe After Effects. To get started, download the footage used in this tutorial so you can easily follow along.
Secure your footage and drag it into a new composition in After Effects. We will be using two parts: one where the wall is clean and another where you or your subject is against the wall and walking out towards the camera. Freeze the frame of the clean wall to eliminate any unwanted objects from your shot. Ensure that your subject is positioned within the frame.
From the composition settings, pick the time when you want to start appearing from the wall. The goal is to make it look as if you are walking out from the wall. To learn how to achieve this animation effect, check out this step-by-step tutorial.
