“Tack Studio are an extremely talented bunch who know how to get sh*t done! From beginning to end working with them has been an absolute pleasure. They are quick and great at expanding on ideas!”

Functionality

Like most extensions, Surveillance is built using HTML, CSS and JavaScript. Each button, slider or any other interactive element calls a function within ExtendScript (the specific flavor of JavaScript that After Effects understands) which in turn triggers sequences of actions and automations within the After Effects project.

Surveillance guides you through the steps required to create your perfect CCTV look, from choosing if you'd like a grid layout and loading in your footage, to finely tuning your selected look.

Features

Grids → Choose between a single piece of footage or a 2x2 or 3x3 grid.

Footage Slots → Load in your footage to each of the available slots, and easily go back to change them on-the-fly whilst keeping your look intact.

Styling Options → Each look is completely customisable. Edit the quality, hue, glow, add noise, flicker or digital glitches and loads more.

Face & Body Trackers → Add rectanguar trackers and use motion tracking to perfectly insert them into your footage.
