02:42 when i copy and past the banana into the apple precomp , the banana mask go to "seat" on the apple, but the banana itself stay in the same place. why is that?

[@eveningsky6798]

When I hold the alt the straight line didn't show up, what's the problem?

OMG! Thank you so much Octopus Effects. I searched a lot for this, and I finally found it. You got a new subscriber. Thanks again ^_^

Thanks, happy for that 😍

[@yudisuryalaksana9682]

thanks u so much. btw i like the song you use for this tutorial, not disturb me actually

[@OctopusEffects]

it's the song How it Began and the song You Had To Be :)

When I attach "Banana mask to apple mask" (reshape option) then the mask go half way from Banana to apple . Banana is not changing full to apple

[@goldenratio2329]

The same. What is done wrong and how to correct?

[@sudheerbethina2085]

While doing pre-composition select "move all attributes into new composition". Hope this will wrks for you...

[@LoofTroop]

This is awesome! How can I do this with other layers where auto-trace creates more than one mask? I can only select one source mask and one destination mask. Any ideas Octopus Effects?

[@OctopusEffects]

I think you should remove the masks and leave only 1 outer mask (the mask surrounding the whole object)

[@LoofTroop]

@@OctopusEffects That worked! thanks a lot

[@Felicity123able]

the connecting part using the pen tool with holding alt is not working, could it be because I'm using an older version of after effect (cc2017)?

[@russmondragon8644]

happens to me too. I hope we get a reply

[@Felicity123able]

@@russmondragon8644 I found out the mistake I was making, you don't have to select the pen tool. from the effect panel click on the reshape effect and then hold alt, but make sure the reshape is selected and highlighted

How do you get the pen tool to create that line? I held alt but it would not create that line between the masks

[@alessandrorizzo9705]

did you find a solution? I am trying the same on a mac.. i cant understand which is the key!

[@hi199736]

@@alessandrorizzo9705 So I found unlike a reply somewhere above, you have to click on the reshape effect so it's highlighted, then change to pen tool and hold alt to get it work! or else it's just a camera icon

[@chikenduckduckgoose9106]

please help me i have a mac so i don’t have the alt key for the part at 3:39. i don’t know what to do

[@OctopusEffects]

The shortcut on Mac differs from that of Windows. So you should look for keyboard shortcuts to use on Mac

select highlight the mask and hit enter, type new name and hit enter again to apply the new name

Do you have any tutorials for morphing png images that have two masks like a tea pot to a coffee cup?

[@beth02x]

Hi! I'm trying to do this with a vector from Illustrator which I saved as a PNG - so it is an image of one flat colour. When I auto-trace, it turns it to white. Any idea why this is? Thank you!

[@WasaFilms]

When I copy the effect to the second composition it doesn't work, It gets really warp when Ae try to convert the second composition layer to the first, help please-

[@OctopusEffects]

You have to connect the corresponding points between the two masks, the more points you connect, the smoother the transformation process. I do it at 3:34

[@emelio6928]

Nice, didn't know about this way of morphing. Does auto trace work only with png files or with vectors as well?

[@OctopusEffects]

both png and vector

Can someone tell me how to increase the number of corresponding points? Its always one you can control so it makes ugly flip instead of nice transition

[@christinetyler4960]

hi for some reason no matter what I do I cannot get my masks to rename. I have spent 2 hours doing it over and over and they won't go from "mask 1" to any other name. I click nothing, I hit rename by right clicking and still nothing. I cannot figure it out. any advice?

[@chelseamerrow42]

you just hit "enter" and you can rename

[@nlokesh1717]

Nice one... learnt

[@OctopusEffects]

😊

[@hollyevebrook]

Would this work at the start of an animation? For example, if I had a rising bubble morph into a bird and then fly off?

[@OctopusEffects]

Yes, it is OK. when the transformation happens, you let the objects stop moving. So it is still the transformation between the two still lifes

[@imperfectstillworthit]

By God I hope you only use copy and paste in the menu dropdown for showcase reason and this isn't your actual workflof o.O Thx for sharing this!

Sorry bro.. I can't understand in 3:34 please help

This step helps connect 2 similarities of bananas and apples to make the transition softer. To do this you have to highlight Reshape FX then press the alt key and then click on the points
