Here's just a few tips on how to remove something in AE/PS without using AE's content-aware fill. Sometimes it takes too long, and tracking a still frame is way easier. Enjoyyyyy

saved my life dude. ae content aware on a 2 minute 6k b-raw clip literally would have taken a week and my computer would have exploded. Thank you!

Hey Cody, thank you for making these videos. I think and feel that your Channel is underrated for the YT Almighty algorithm. I subscribed to your Channel.

Hey man, thanks for taking the time to show off this info.
I just want to ask at about min 2:10 why did you also make a mask? You could have just left the content aware layer active and that's it.
Is it more efficient this way? works faster or something?
Thanks again.

I wish I had the money to hire you to be my editor. Not just for how knowledgeable you are, but because the two of us trying to explain things to each other would be comedy gold.

Excellent thank you! Just what I needed to learn. Now my background looks beautiful! If only my hand would go IN FRONT of it when i move instead of disappearing behind it. Suggestions? lol

I don't have create reference frame or content aware fill in after effects. That's why I looked up how to do it without it, now I need "create reference frame"? How do you do that without that option? Just take a picture and import to PS? Which also doesn't have content aware fill..

Okay I see you JJ Abrams glasses look.

Hey Cody, I have watched this video 3 to 4 times already and followed along the step-by-step process that you explain here, but for some reason right after I move the reference frame above the footage, freeze the frame, expand it and reload the footage from the actual Reference Frame within (Fills) I don't see the footage moving just like it does in your video, I am not sure what is going on or what am I doing wrong, should I keep doing the other steps after that?
