How to Create Clone Effect in Adobe After Effects

Creating a clone effect in Adobe After Effects is a great way to create interesting visuals for your project. To create the effect, you'll need to use the Rotobrush tool. First, select the footage or layer that you want to work with. Then, select the Rotobrush tool from the Tools panel. Next, draw a “brush” around the area of the footage that you want to clone. Once you’ve done that, you’ll need to adjust the settings on the RotoBrush effect. You can adjust settings such as the “Clone” option, which allows you to duplicate the area you’ve selected. Finally, you can adjust the opacity of the cloned area to make it more or less visible. With a few tweaks, you’ll be able to create a great clone effect in Adobe After Effects.
