CE LightWrap
Posted on 23. Aug, 2008 by Jerzy Drozda Jr in After Effects, Products
Learn how to make your keyed out footage blend better with the background by casting light on it from surrounding elements
Click here to watch the video tutorial
Light wrapping is something everyone should know about and learn how to do. It greatly improves the quality of your compositions by making them look more believable.
In this tutorial I will show you a quick and easy way of creating great looking light wrap effect without using any 3rd party plugins (with exception of CyCoreFX which you should already have by default). The results are fantastic and you can easily compare them to many expensive commercial plugins out there that do the same thing. But that’s not all…
After over a year of providing free content I thought it’s about time to give you a chance to say “Thank you”, so I also build a CustomEffect that you can buy for a low price. It’s even more advanced and powerful than what I show you in the tutorial. I provided some examples of what you can achieve when using ceLightWrap but to see the real power I really recommend watching the tutorial.
You can purchase ceLightWrap via PayPal. Sales are handled by a secure online shopping system – E-Junkie. After purchase you will be redirected to a download page. Each purchase is valid for two download attempts. The file you will be downloading will be a ZIP file with a polyCE file in it. You need to use CustomEffects Installer to be able to use the CustomEffect.
I hope you will choose the CustomEffect over the simple preset that I show you how to build in the tutorial and therefore you’ll take your part in keeping this site alive and providing new tutorials.
For installation instructions go to What CustomEffects are page.

somethign´s wrong with flashpalyer. your tutorials pop up but will not be shown.
any ideas?

Same problem…I can’t see the videos anymore…
Good job on the custom effect anyway…I’m cheap so I think I’m stuck with the preset :D
Maltaannon
24. Aug, 2008
Probably some temporary server glitch. Should be working now.

24. Aug, 2008
Do you see any reason why this would not work with AE7.0 instead of CS3(only)?
Maltaannon
24. Aug, 2008
The reason is I don’t even have AE7 installed anymore, and with CS4 coming out soon I don’t think I’ll be messing around doing AE7 versions for any of my presets or CustomEffects.

24. Aug, 2008
Pretty awesome. I’ve always wondered what goes into making these custom effects, are there any resources on how to make these sorts of plugins?
Maltaannon

I am working on a tool to build those so that everybody can create one.

Hi JD, i´ts definetly because of Flash version 9.0 r124
Monroe E. "tequilaman2006"
25. Aug, 2008
tutorials are still playing here– if on Firefox, try disabling, then re-enabling the Shockwave plugin. I do this monthly because YouTube and other Flash vids will stop playing audio for some reason, but if you reset the Shockwave plugin, they are fine.
good luck, and cool plugin Maltaannon!
(I’m on Firefox 3.0 (shockwave 9.0 r 124) and Windows Vista 32-bit Home Premium)

25. Aug, 2008
Hi,
no chance. i even reinstalled the plugin.
the start screen of the tut pops up shortly and then disappears.
other sites, e.g. VCP do work without problems.
don´t know whats wrong.

UPDATE
Have installed FF 3. Now everything works fine again. Even the cursor here in the input window is back again.
so far. keep on rocking

Hi ! There’s a problem in your flv video. I can see till the music start and you say: ” Stop the music !”. From that point my players stop. I have 8 computer and 6 different players. 6 computers are recently installed…so there’s no win reg corruption, disk fragmentation…etc…i can’t see the second part of this BEAUTIFUL tutorial. Can you fix it?
Maltaannon
26. Aug, 2008
It’s hard to say whats wrong. It all works for me. I know that the server is going through some difficulties at the moment. Honestly there are problems all the time. Sorry I can’t afford a better one. As you see others do see the video. I don’t know what’s wrong, it can be a gazillion things.

Hi,
Just having a slight issue getting my head around one part of the tutorial. When I apply the ‘CC Composite’ it brings back my original footage with the greenscreen still in the image. If I set it to ’stencil alpha’ I end up with the feathered outline, but the rest of the image turns black and I can’t figure out how to get rid of this.
I’m guessing there is something I was meant to do to the keyed out footage before starting this tutorial, but I have no idea what.
Any help would be highly appreciated as this looks like it will really enhance my university project.
Cheers.
Maltaannon
30. Aug, 2008
i think that precomping your key would solve the problem. key your footage out, precomp it and then apply the steps from the tutorial
Jamie
31. Aug, 2008
Thanks heaps Maltaannon, that got it working. Regards for all the great tutorials, they’re a real help.

Hi, thanks. I’ve been lookin’ for something like this for a long time. Just a quick tip: To display percent after the value you can use DISPLAY_PERCENT=”true” in the PresetEffects.xml file.
Please also make sure to checkout my free AE Preset Collection: http://youtube.com/watch?v=2O2OyLlwqUU

I can thouroughly recommend that you BUY this CustomEffect – it will save you a heap of time and is easily worth the small price being asked.
I am not a professional by any stretch of the imagination but this little tool makes a HUGE difference to how the finished product looks. My keying was pretty good before but with a little bit of further tweaking, this tool has allowed me to completely get rid of that ’sat on top, layered look’ and I am delighted. You will be, too.
Professional or amateur, you will be really glad you added CE Light Wrap to your arsenal.
Sorry if that sounds a bit like an ad for it but my words are genuine – you’re definitely going to be impressed with what this thing can do for you…

Maybe if some of you people put your hand in your pocket once in a while and paid the tiny amount being asked for great products such as this, instead of take, take, take all the time, EXPECTING this stuff to be delivered free all the time, he might find more time to make the free tutorials. The man does need to put money on the table, you know.
Jesus! Blatant greed…

22. Oct, 2008
Alan, just notice that you’r simply talking without any proves.
I did paid and donation maltaannon, and he can check it too, and i want some back for this. at the begining the site was great but now he is not updating nothing. i this he wait until he gonna get the mony for the server+domain back and ran away to neverland or something like this.
so if maltaannon reading it – don’t wait until someone will donate you. think about te rest that donated you in the pass.
Dekel.
Maltaannon
23. Oct, 2008
Of course I do and I am thankful, but keep in mind that I’m also running a company and dealing with all sorts of crap right now, but with all do respect that’s none of your business unless I post about it in the blog section, so if I need a time off, or simply can’t find the time to do more than that.. well… that’s just the way it is.
But… as a matter of fact I just finished recording last but one tutorial for the DVD training I’m making for you guys, and I assure you – you’ve never seen anything like it. It’s 04:36 in the morning. No other time for me to do this. I loose my time, my sleep, and my health due to that. But screw that. I do love it so I spent every moment I can spare on providing you guys with great content.
If you’ve been watching my site for a long time like you say you did you’d know that I had major breaks like this one, but there was always a great come back after. I am thankful for your donations Dekel, but they don’t make you a saint. I am grateful for all the donations I received so far – they reassure me that I am in the right place doing the right thing, and they occasionally help with the hosting bill.
Like I said – I love what I do and I’ll keep posting tutorials, tools and all sort of new stuff that you haven’t seen before. I’d just love to make a living out of it – that way everybody wins. I get to do what I love, you get your free content. I’m doing everything in my power towards that.
Best regards my friends.
Happy AfterEffecting.

I have just recently found your site and tutorials – good job. I would like to help you and myself by getting your lightwrap preset. But first wanted to know if it will work with AE CS4. Let me know and thanks for your knowledge sharing.
Maltaannon
02. Nov, 2008
I have at least one confirmed working copy on AE CS4. You may have problems installing due to different security settings on Adobe folders. Make sure to follow the instructions when installing. It should work fine.

I”m interested in purchasing this Preset but I can’t install it with your installer.. I’m using Windows Vista, followed all of the instructions and nothing will install. I have downloaded some of your other presets from Creative Cow and manually installed and they work great. If I purchase can you deliver the preset file so all i have to do is drop it in my polygon folder?
Maltaannon
13. Dec, 2008
Yes, I can deliver the preset file, but please note, that you should not use any information from Creative Cow since they are outdated. There is a new installer, and CustomEffects has a different format than they used to. Please go to http://maltaannon.com/what-customeffets-are/ and download the newest CE Installer.
Stevem
14. Dec, 2008
I’ve already tried downloading the newest installer and for some reason, Vista will not allow me to write to the adobe files. When I change the properties it appears to chance but after a few minutes they are the same as before. Note I’m running Vista and not very familiear with it.
Maltaannon
14. Dec, 2008
Well… I don’t have Vista yet, and several people have reported the same problem. They always said that they found a solution, and the solution was to set up the privileges for the entire Adobe folder and all subfolders, so thats the only thing I can recommend doing.

Hey there!
I must say I’m totally overwhelmed and absolutely impressed by this preset. When i had a shot with complicated background and very complicated foreground character which was in many precomps of various sizes i just had applied the preset to it and it gave me absolutely lovely control and just the effect i wanted for the shot. I’m glad it’s quite fast also, cause’ i have been doing Lightwrap effect in several differend and quite more complicated ways earlier and this baby is just.. wow! Incredibly simple but absolutely powerful.
Thanks Maltaanon!
Best wishes! :)

28. Jul, 2009
works beautifully! in fact, it gives better results than a leading Lightwrap plugin that I won’t name here…
Navarro Parker
31. Jul, 2009
Really powerful. Far more flexible than Key Correct Light Wrap! Beautiful results!
I got it with MILG5, but are there any instructions? Most everything is pretty intuitive, but not sure if/when/why I should use some settings.
Your examples are using names that don’t correspond with the plug-in settings: “Wrap by pixel”, “Wrap by enviro”, “Hard Lightening”, “Soft Darkening” ?
Jerzy Drozda Jr
31. Jul, 2009
Yes. That’s because they describe the results, and the results were achieved by tweaking the settings. Hard light for example means that you can clearly see the light on the edges, so the lightness of the light was increased. As for Wrap by pixel or enviro there’s a checkbox for that, but please note that it only works when the BG is larger than the comp/key.

I can’t get this to work. I’ve gone through every step multiple times, exactly as shown in the video. Adding the CC Composite does not get rid of the black (yes, set to Stencil Alpha), and when I add the second CC composite (set to Add with RGB deselected), I end up with my character having a “halo” of the background layer, and the background I’d keyed out showing in the rest of the monitor. I’ve tried precomposing my video layer but no luck.

great maltaannon. thanks very much for all. I want to tell you something: The celightwrap doesn’t function very well with camera out of focus. I guess that’s why the blur capabilities, but it will to much great if it’s possible do an expression to calculate like the sample pixel the bluriness of the camera and translate it to the lightwrap. A really big hug and happy birthday
Jerzy Drozda Jr
07. Aug, 2009
Try precomping. If that doesn’t help check out my CE PixelSampler. Theres an example like that.

It does go out of focus, but it does independly of the layer and note to much the border. Lost the integration. I don’t know how to explain it, i don’t know the words.. But it’s only a comment. Don’y worry.

OK, I’m gonna buy this thing, even if I don’t use it (because I am new to AE and really not up to speed yet), But I gotta show the love for all your effort, and If your like me, you can hear a thousand compliments and one insult, and let the one insult chip at you. Please keep doing what your doing, and when you need help from the community, we are here for you, just ask.
be well, and thank you
james
23. Nov, 2009
YES!!! I got it to work, using the optional method. Because I am new to AE, anything I can get, to make it easier for me and give me a victory, keeps me pushing ahead! Seeing my light wrap around my object with just a click of the button, and being able to have control over it is a Big Victory for me!
Now I can move on to another challenge, cause I got a list.
If you guys are having a challenge with this technique get this product and save yourselves the hassle of working 6.748 times harder to get something that isn’t as sweet!

that makes my final output dynamic.
thanks for all support.

Hey mate! Nice work. Quick question, you mentioned in a previous post that it works with minimum CS3, does this mean it definitely works for CS4? Cheers in advance.

I love the plugin, but I will note that there is a flash that occurs using the default setting. I disabled it by disabling the default automatic color correction. It usually happened a few frames into the layer timeline.
I have had this happen multiple times, and I am not sure why – or why the default setting is one that would allow color adjust like that.
Jerzy Drozda Jr
18. Mar, 2010
Send me the clip you were applying the effect too. I’ve never had that issue and you’re the first one to report it. Honestly theres nothing in it that could cause this problem that I could think off, so I’m interested to see your footage.

Hi, CS5 is being launched next week – any idea if this will work with CS5 which I believe is going to be native 64 bit?
Jerzy Drozda Jr

It is going to be 64 bit native, and since my CE’s are basically presets under the hood the answer is yes – it will work.

Hey maltaanon i love your tutes but i just bought this plugin and can’t get it to work. its installed fine. i got my greenscreen footage. used keylight to key it. then i precomposed it and put it in a new sequence but when i apply the lightwrap it just brings back all the greenscreen and puts a yellow halo effect around my subject… any tips on what im doing wrong?

Maybe theres something wrong with the precompose. Lighwrap cannot know what was the footage like before keying if you precomposed it correctly so it’s impossible for it to bring back the green pixels. Make sure everything is fine. If you’re still running into problems write me an email. You got the address with your purchase. Thanks.

Getting errors all the time with CS5 and this plugin – have you tested this plug in CS5 yet? I would love for you to shed some light on this topic as it doesn’t seem to be working properly at all…. I had great success with CS3.. but CS5 is nightmare

I am looking into this and upgrading everything to CS5. Although it is surprising that it needs updating, since this is not a plugin – just a very clever preset based on build it effects.

Hey JD. I think until you get this fixed you should put a clear note on the lightwrap page that cs5 users will have to wait for an update

Nice work JD,
If your updating this can you rework it to be greater then 8 bit….
as the cc plugins for most users will be limited to 8 bit….I don’t know if theres another way around that or no…perhaps a different technique not using them
Thanks
