Description

Learn how to use stabilized precomps to do complex compositing tasks in After Effects in no time. In this tutorial we use a stabilized precomp to manipulate the facade of a building: We add additional windows and even an oriel. And although the camera is moving, all of this can be done in just a few minutes.

A stabilized precomp is a composition in which the tracked region no longer moves. Inside this precomp, you can make any modification - as if it were a still image - and all your changes are also automatically applied to the original perspective.
