00:00:00,380 --> 00:00:05,950

Now this is a very useful tip and I use it all the time because sometimes I get myself in trouble.



2

00:00:06,180 --> 00:00:11,240

For example I have a recomposition I did all animation and very happy with it.



3

00:00:11,250 --> 00:00:15,900

And I want to give it to the client or I want uploaded to YouTube and show my friends.



4

00:00:15,900 --> 00:00:22,800

Now I notice here that when I did the composition I started with 20 by 10 E.T. which is a very high



5

00:00:22,800 --> 00:00:23,620

resolution.



6

00:00:23,640 --> 00:00:24,520

That's fine.



7

00:00:24,710 --> 00:00:25,180

OK.



8

00:00:25,300 --> 00:00:34,120

I wanted 19:28 and I want to reduce it to 720 P that is now at 12 A.D. by 720 cool.



9

00:00:34,350 --> 00:00:41,150

If I change here and click OK here I am my whole composition or my whole world is destroyed.



10

00:00:41,340 --> 00:00:45,750

I have to come and change the scale of every lead and I have any issues.



11

00:00:45,930 --> 00:00:52,340

So it's almost impossible and it's really very tedious to do it what you can do and this is a very useful



12

00:00:52,340 --> 00:00:52,870

tip.



13

00:00:53,070 --> 00:00:57,660

You come to a file and you have here an option called scripts.



14

00:00:57,690 --> 00:01:01,830

I hope you have seen before and there is scale composition.



15

00:01:01,830 --> 00:01:02,820

This is a script.



16

00:01:02,850 --> 00:01:06,000

It's a javascript that will scale your composition.



17

00:01:06,000 --> 00:01:06,970

How does it work.



18

00:01:07,170 --> 00:01:15,870

I would click on scale and before I scale here I must make sure that no layer is locked if any layer



19

00:01:15,870 --> 00:01:16,600

is locked.



20

00:01:16,620 --> 00:01:18,140

This one will not work.



21

00:01:18,150 --> 00:01:22,180

The composition will not work just give you a damn liar here.



22

00:01:22,350 --> 00:01:24,300

You can try it yourself here.



23

00:01:24,330 --> 00:01:26,460

I will remove the lock from here.



24

00:01:26,460 --> 00:01:32,640

That's the most important so make sure there are no layers that are locked and I say you can position



25

00:01:32,640 --> 00:01:33,050

with.



26

00:01:33,090 --> 00:01:35,660

And I want to reduce it to 12.



27

00:01:35,940 --> 00:01:38,870

OK you can put any figures here any numbers you want.



28

00:01:38,880 --> 00:01:44,300

That's OK but of course you want to take care of distortion and I would say scale not less.



29

00:01:44,310 --> 00:01:45,400

Nothing has happened.



30

00:01:45,410 --> 00:01:51,190

I just look at my composition and if I run it it's gold.



31

00:01:51,300 --> 00:01:54,700

It's looking a bit smaller I'll bring it back to 100 percent.



32

00:01:54,780 --> 00:02:00,630

It seems like nothing Haskett but the magic comes when I right click on the composition setting.



33

00:02:00,630 --> 00:02:09,450

I find out it's now 12 80 by 720 and it is really working very fine and there is nothing to change or



34

00:02:09,450 --> 00:02:13,080

no work to be done and this is a nexilis tip.



35

00:02:13,080 --> 00:02:19,700

You can change to any size you also can change by a factor for example you can make it 1.5 bigger.



36

00:02:19,830 --> 00:02:25,310

And if I click OK look at my animation it's working very fine.



37

00:02:25,460 --> 00:02:27,860

What is the size of the composition now.



38

00:02:27,860 --> 00:02:30,560

It is 1920 by 10 eighty point five.



39

00:02:30,560 --> 00:02:32,390

Of course it will go back.



40

00:02:32,390 --> 00:02:40,370

So this is how you scale down and scale up your composition without having to scale all the layers.



41

00:02:40,370 --> 00:02:41,660

I'll put it back to 12.



42

00:02:41,680 --> 00:02:43,370

80 and here you are.



43

00:02:43,610 --> 00:02:46,530

We have scaled everything and it's working very fine.



44

00:02:46,730 --> 00:02:54,020

Now remember that no layer should be lot less lock a layer locked to and try it and see exactly what



45

00:02:54,020 --> 00:02:55,120

will happen with you.



46

00:02:55,160 --> 00:02:57,120

So you have a good idea what's happening.



47

00:02:57,140 --> 00:03:00,920

When it doesn't what will good scale composition say scale.



48

00:03:00,920 --> 00:03:06,130

For example I put it at 19 20 whatever and with scale.



49

00:03:06,260 --> 00:03:12,020

Not this you just have another layer and your composition did not change in size.



50

00:03:12,140 --> 00:03:14,140

I will delete them later here.



51

00:03:14,150 --> 00:03:20,570

So from now on to scale down or up your composition and scale all the layers and do not have any problem.



52

00:03:20,600 --> 00:03:25,650

Please use the file script and Scale Camp.



53

00:03:25,760 --> 00:03:28,560

Thank you very much for listening and I will see you in the next lecture.
