After all these years, Harry Potter is still a thing. Trust me, I know what I’m saying. I just had to create Harry Potter style pictures for a wedding (!) couple believe it or not.
If you are trying to apply that effect to videos with Adobe After Effects, the latest tutorial from ProductionCrate might be something for you. It’s as easy as tracking the tip of the wand and applying on of their assets from the huge library on their website.
Of course, you could go in and go all crazy with Plug-Ins like particular to create those magic particles and strokes. We will cover that in a later tutorial. But sometimes, when you just have to get the job done, it’s good to know where to find the necessary assets and how to apply them.
