Hi,

For the pictures, download google earth, and take snapshots of the screen.Redimension the picutres on photoshop afterwards (otherwise it's really hard to adjust them on Aftereffects)

There's nothing wrong with cs6, check your steps again. Turn on all the layers before you scale layer no 1 to 100

There must be ... having the same problem. Even when I open the project files the the same problem occurs... must be a setting.

Anyone got any ideas?

Hey Andrew, I'm planning on doing this same effect for a music video but I'm in Chicago. Where did you get the pictures used in this tutorial and is it possible for me to get some zooming out from there? Thanks so much.

I followed your tutorial step by step but when parenting all layers to layer 1 and scaling layer 1 to 100%, only layer 1 zoomed in and out.

Finally I just left the layers parented to each one but last and increased the scale of last layer to bout 30k and it worked perfect for me.

I'm having the same problems as Brad. Must be a different setting in CS6. Or I'm doing something very wrong. Also possible ;)

I am having the same issue. I am working with CS6, and each layer once un-parented and re-paranted to layer 1 loses all scale and position info... I can't seem to get it to work.

For some reason, I can't switch from rectangular masking to elliptical masking. I am using CS4. I know you click on the little triangle thing, but the selection panel won't pop out. Help?

Wich Programm did you use to take this photos? Google Earth won´t let me take some without brandings on it. And FlashEarth images aren´t in 3D.

i am trying to finish this effect for a music video, I wanna give up, I just started using AE and it is taking me forever, I still think that I will not be able to finish it. Anyone interested in sharing their effect, will give you credits! We recorded on a roof top in SF, so it needs to be Zoom IN to SF. Thank you so much!

you need to type a comma, not a point.

Thanks Andrew! I did this and made a moon out of a New Solid with Fractel Noise and made it come past the earth. I also achieved a pretty deacent sound effect by making it with the sound of a missle.
