After Effects: Superman Take Off
In this tutorial VideoFort Don teaches you how to fly using After Effects. Start out by filming your actor jumping into the air, then running out of frame as soon as you land. A tripod is necessary so that frame jumps don't occur when editing your final shot. After you have the shot, VideoFort Don shows you how to mask your actor's body and add a motion blur to create the flying effect. From there you learn how to create a shockwave from scratch to sell your superman take off.
