[@mmohaa]

helpful, thnx

[@sarahouellet5783]

amazing! can I make the ice chunks way bigger in a simple way? ( dealing with 4k x 4k here.. )

[@GoatmanArts]

My only suggestion would be to scale it up, not 100% how much detail would be retained.

[@giovannitorres9281]

How come I follow step by step and it looks nothing like yours? Only difference is that I don't have Fast blur.

[@PhantomOfTheSchool]

Amazing tutorial! Say, if I want to use this ice as a border, what would you suggest I do? So basically i need the center of the ice effect to be blank...

[@GoatmanArts]

So I actually did exactly that in a different project, luckily its nice and easy to do. The first thing you need to do Is create the full screen version of this, then render it off or pre-comp it (Cmd/control>shift>C to pre comp) I recommend rendering it off though, once this is done import it back in to after effect and add a oval mask to the footage (Shortcut Q) then give it a generous feather (Select the layer and press F) somewhere around 200-300 should do. That should give you the effect you are after, let me know how things go :)

[@benjamindanilov3121]

weird thing is that I dont have a track mat wtf, I am using the 2022 version of after effects tho

[@GoatmanArts]

Go to the bottom left of your timeline In after effects, then you want to click the circle and square to expanse the transfer controls, or press F4

[@JamsMinecraft]

hey I'm very new to after fx and just trying to learn it.. I'm wondering if I could put the effect over top of some moving 3d tracked text... The text reads cold hearted and I want to make it freeze over for a dramatic effect. Thanks

[@kevinpeng1894]

How do you apply this to only a person? I want to freeze a person in after effects. Thanks

[@SangHendrix]

Cooool

[@GoatmanArts]

I hope that was a pun :D

[@iHeartGamesYT]

Watching this after Ghostbusters Frozen Empire

[@lildrinkwaterdehydrationai2608]

Where is track matte? Its not there for me

[@Brolaf2000]

I dont have TrikMat :/ ?

[@GoatmanArts]

Hi so there's a chance you have it hidden, on the timeline panel look at the bottom left corner, there should be three little symbols the second one of them, a circle and a square, should add trkmat to you timeline panel
