And 1 last question why do you have an x6800 you should have picked the qx6700 I got mine @ 3.5 ghz, I know this isn’t a pc hardware place but just curious. Also 4 gigs of ram would be a better idea :P

June 18th, 2007 @ 10:16 am

Hi Andrew :)
Thank you very mush for everything here.
i learned a lot from you and always you have a good idea.
the important thing in your tutorials is how easy you are using the software, really i loved After Effect much more before, of course the reason is Andrew Kramer ;)

that last one, I added no sound effects to, she got her noggen knocked. I bought the package last month. The wife wasn’t too happy about the money, thats ok a week of sleeping in the dog house was worth it.

Dear Andrew, Hey I loved reading all the responses. It’s a little foreign to me. (I’m not the computor master) so I didn’t understand everything but it seems you all do and that’s all that matters. I’m so proud of you and the hard work you put into everything. I know that you’ll keep producing great stuff. Love Mom.

Andrew Kramer’s mom? So you think I could have an autograph from Mrs. Kramer next time I buy one of your DVDs Andrew? I’d give you a 5$ bonus, how’s that for a deal? ;)

Not sure where to request this but I was hoping you could do a tutorial on converting video to cartoon in AE like the movie “A Scanner Darkly” I dont know if it is even possible to do in AE only. I know there was a tutorial on Creative Cow but you had to use Illustrator and I have a version that is too old to do it with.

Hey Andrew . I just want to thank you for all the free tutorials on the site :D

June 23rd, 2007 @ 12:37 pm

I have a fantastic idea about what you could do Andrew. Why not set up a part on your web page where you can put little clips of what people have created from your products and ideas. It would be cool to show people what you can do with it along side yourself with your tutorials. I thought it would be a neat idea to see what could be created out of all the products with some ideas from everyone. Just sharing, See ya!

Ok Mr. Kramer, I just bought Sound FX. Spent the money I had saved up towards the CS3 After Effects upgrade. So make sure you still do some 7.0 tutorials. hmmm where is my BBQ sauce?

Men, this site Rocks!!!
Andrew, I think I have read each of your tutorials 500 times and I just can’t wait for this music video I am working on (after learning the light streak tut.) You are definitely awesome!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Ok, I was viewing the new 3d project tutorial and you don’t just understand how much I have been waiting, no dieing for such thingy from you. Is it possible for you to do like a tutorial on how to do different camera movements from probably one street to the other then entering an apartment window like Rob Thomas music video “Little Wonders” http://youtube.com/watch?v=9IVzYLthJow I know pictures will be a lil intense so anything to make the point will be just great!. By the way Andrew, yeah, she’s always right!.

i just have to say that i sit down to watch and learn from your great How To vids for after effects.BUT not only do i learn i laugh alot. a funny guy. An example would be when you said somthing about “stop trying those dating websites that always reject you ” and then you say “hold on let me just move this out of the way” and there on the screen is a dating website. thats just one example thanx for the laughs and the sharing of your skills in AE

Hey Andrew,
How about doing a tutorial on The famous Star wars
Text crawl with a planet or death star camera zoom in one shot.I know a lot of people out there including my self are wanting to know how its done.

So if you could please be so kind and make a full tutorial from start to finish please it would be of great help.
Thank you!
