Only in After Effects, Khemiset. Flash Video, in Flash, does’t have this ability built in. I suspect it could be accomplished by coding up a PixelBender Plug In but that is one seriously scary coding task.

Jim, Free Transform with a mask doesn’t give one the ability to actually “bend” a video around an object. I touch on thias subject in a earlier tutorial: http://www.layersmagazine.com/flash-cs4-media-encoder.html

This was very informative, but I have one question that was not shown and I have no experience in adobe after effects. How do you import the video so it is on the photo so you can adjust it to fit as you did in your tutorial. Thanks
