I’m just about finished with the Earth Zoom tutorial. I’ve also been reading all the suggestions and the information has been very helpful. I’m going to get the Tutorial up soon.
PS: Here is a small taste of the quality you can expect!


God! It’s freaking photrealistic ![]()
thanks for the upcoming tutorial
Can’t wait
.
Its really thrilling keep it in this way andrew you are
the hero:D
You have outdone yourself this time Andrew. I think I can see my house from here… P.S. Are you familiar with matchmoving? Like with Boujou, or PFHoe? And have you seen the movie children of men?
I’ve done something similiar to Universal opening.
We’ve got earth, space, zoom, and a bit of light.

Awesome. You’ve obviously listened to your fans and comments (all 300+ of them in the last post!)
… I wish I was that good with Paint …
Cheers,
Jacob.
Oh my godness! You better had payed attention in geography-lessons! Since when there is a land-brigde form Nothern-America to Europe?
But a nice light-effect!
I can’t wait for the tutorial!
Great, looking forward to the tutorial, i was gonna work on the effect before you started to do the tutorial, but i couldnt find high quality images, but that image must be like 20megapixels ultra detail :O
heey, Great I will wait for it.
I tryed make it whit Google earth but it don’t work. I hope you have something bether.
Greetzz
Soon as in…?
Minutes? Hours? Days?
Come on, you can’t tease us like this!!!
“With great power…”
It’s breath-taking…. i…. can’t even describe it…. amazing really… but seriously, can’t wait for the tutorial, though i don’t have any projects that need the Earth zoom effect, i’ve always thought it was a neat trick
Awesome!! Can’t wait for the tutorial
Hey you could do an earth zoom for a cell phone video game with that “quality” pic!
The north pole exists?!
oh man I cant wait.
We’re is the moon?…tztz Andrew
Wowza, start writing tutorials on how to draw like that on paint please =P
P.s. can’t wait for the tutorial ^_^
HAHA! Andrew, I love you sence of humor! So this will be your switch form AE to MS paint???
wow cant wait and i would like to see some tutorials on matte painting since i never seen one of this from you before
cant wait for the earth zoom
hurry up andrew!
peace from israel!!!
Wow!! Had I known you could get those kinds of photorealistic results from MS Paint, I would have made the switch YEARS ago. Instead, I’ve been wasting my money and time with that other Hack program, Photoshop. I feel so cheated.
yea, this’ll be a really cool tutorial!
I missed the deadline, but I just wanted to tell you, that I really want to see more Paint Tutorials! (who the hell needs AE or C4D? we wan’t *real* pro-apps ^^)
yea i have an idea why not a lot tuts about how to use ms paint with AE that would be kick ass.
lol
Is that MS Paint Extended?! Awesome!
i hope it doesn’t use any stock footage
Oh yeah great I can´t wait to see the Tutorial.
I will send you an e-mail soon. because I have a little problem with an effect I created. I hope you can help me Andrew.^^
Greetings from Germany
You even put the North Pole sign!!! You’re seriously a genious!!!
Man, I can’t wait for this tutorial. And I also already wanna know what’ll be coming next
Keept it up! But hey, Venezuela’s NOT in that globe!
hehe… i like your sense of humor
hey tutorial looks great!
btw please could you get a tutorial together
for some special effects from the program
charmed. Like orbing, freezing (you have already done),
vanquishing and other styles of teleporting (with
other actors in the scene and how that would work.
Thanks!
Finally. I can rock paint the way it was always meant to be rocked.
I can’t believed you used the Flare filter for microsoft paint. That is so overused.
While looking at those High Res Photos I can’t help but think, will I have enough proccesing power to do this effect?
as usuall Andrew using the essential of PAINT to make amazing things
thanx a lot Andrew you are very kind person.
waiting the new BOMB
I think we all gonna drop photoshop for paint after seeing this amazing earth
Very good tutorial I am waiting for it !!! We also want the storm promo tutorial and the car hit tutorial !!!
Blessings
Andrew, your paint skills are a-m-a-z-i-n-g…this should be in the Louvre…looking forward to the Tutorial.
as a reply to the person above. The best way I know of to use Google Earth for a zoom if you can;t get the Pro Module is to set up your path as a “place” and click it a few times to get the zoom in loaded fully in your buffer, zoom out as far as possible into “space”, click record on the mini-DV cam set-up on a tripod, click on the places and rapidly hide your side bar slide the mouse cursor off screen concurrently. Do it a couple times for safety. Pull your footage into AE and color treat it as wanted including flouro greens and blues throw a grid with a glow filter on it and voila! a cool looking background computer screens for your next Enemy of the State wanna-be home film!
Hey! Thanx 4da upcoming tut. can’t really wait!!!!
Warm Regards
Sandy
Woo I now have a new desktop background.
Been waiting for a tutorial like this for a long time “excited I am”!!
can we make it so that you end up zooming in on a swarm of bees?
Its so hot in Split today, grr
great painting mr.Andrew, on work i use paint a lot so i kinda know myself around it preety damn good, i know how hard is this.
cant w8 for the tutorial, but i have a rough idea how to create it, just …nah, just cant wait=P
1ce more, u could use a forum=P
Great painting, but you kinda messed ut Norway :/
i miss your voice Andrew, your Tutorials re very useful for me, hope to see your new Tutor soon.;)
I’d like to cast a vote for MATCHMOVING as well.
Cant wait for the tutorial
looking forward dood! And btw, i hope you have heard all of our prayers about tutorials!
i can list em up:
- How to use track information from Boujou4 into AE probably!
- Some Trapcode Particular Tuts
- Some rotoscoping
- C4D to AE – Make 3D and video blend together! By that i mean, good lighting techniques in C4D
- Something on how to create this: http://www.ryan-w.com/ryan-w/clips/lightning_duel.mov (wich are made in AE, with some help from boujou)!
PLEASE LISTEN TO MY PRAYERS!
please andrew….
yay! a ms paint tutorial!
you did it again andrew!
ps: there is a bridge of land there between europe and america?
lols at all i just want to know that do you guys really know what andrew is being talking baout or its me the fool ova here :d just wondering…
opps i my gramar mistke..up there
Awesome!!! MS PAINT!!!! AAAAH HA! In your face all you 3D guys!!!!
I sent you a p/m andrew, but maybe you didn’t get it. But please explain how you did this, veeery slowly!
Oh yeah, one more thing. I know that creating this effect will bring my machine to it’s knees, so can you NOT include any clouds or land masses in this tutorial? SWEET!!! Thanks Andrew!!!!
I’m impressed! Even van Gogh couldn’t do it better.
i think this time you messed it up Andrew
i don’t like the quality in this last one
I like where the land is extruding from the earth on the South-Eastern hemisphere.
PS. I would like to know how to make those clouds and things..
Great, looking forward to see your technique! Check out my site to see my earth zoom (under demos->animatie demo).
Oops, I’m not supposed to talk about the North Atlantic Bridge. That comes in the future. There is a starbucks every 5 miles though.
Does anyone knows how to use the rotation tool on Paint? I can’t find it
Andrew, keep up the excellent sense of humor!
Regards,
Eduardo
How the hell did u do that? 3D??
So Realistic..
Does it comes with some Paint Presets???
How can i make keyframes in paint, or import video, that is awesome…
Can I have this picture in 1280×1024 please? I want to set it as my desktop wallpaper.
Oh oh…
wonderful…bur where is the Italy???
Wow 3D in MSPaint, you must have the conoa Plugin for it. Didn’t think it did such an amazing job in Paint, but you, Mr. Kramer, proved me wrong. Wow, looks like it is worth every penny. Impressive Globe you made there. I can’t stop looking at it photo realism.
Haha, I laughed.
CAN’T WAIT.
Have you considered my tutorials Andrew?
Oh by the way..congrats!
1 Of your great products and 2 or your great tutorials were used in one of the greatest Machinema’s ever made:
http://www.waroftheservers.com
If you have heard of ‘Half-Life 2′, a mod to it Called Garry’s Mod is a sandbox mod where you can muck around and build stuff.
At the start of the 2 hour movie, he used the Fast Fly By text, Riot Gear and the 3D room!
Hola!!
Podría haber escrito este comentario en Inglés, pero creo que vale la pena hacerlo en castellano para mostrar el alcance de esta web y cuanto me ha ayudado a aprender! Soy Leo de Argentina y estoy fascinado de cuanto he aprendido con estos videotutoriales en poco tiempo. Me sacó completamente el miedo de usar After Effects ya que lo veía muy complicado de usarlo. Soy aficionado a la edicion y apenas con mis 18 años te agradezco mucho Andrew Kramer, ya que lo que estas haciendo es muy valioso. Seguí asi!!! y espero el proximo videotutorial about earth zoom.
See you!! Bye!
Thanks man, cant wait!
Oh ho ho. The realism is ASTOUNDING. Gotta love the Big Dipper in the bg
Big Dipper! I wondered if anyone noticed. Nice call.
Hey Boss whats up .Is there any way to show us how to clone .
Andrew, once again you have left us in to much suspense, is it a joke, are you really making the tutorial, ar you gonna do it on fourth of july and throw in an explosion of earth like in a cinematic scene as a present?
to many questions that we cant wait untill they are answered!
incidently i was working on a tutorial for after effects, just about to make one, but then, mic doesnt work, plugged in and everything, just not detects at all
Guys.. Just for your notifacation! If u seek training for after effects go to http://www.fxphd.com, they are like an online VFX school.
Check it out!
Just rendering and them it will be online!
Excellent, but unfortuantly i cant be the first to watch, my dad wants to go on the pc
looking forward to the excellent tutorial tho andrew!
good luck, hope you included that bitmap as a souvinier or however you spell that
Niiiiiice! Thank you Andrew!
well i might be able to if its up in the next 5 mins, i got some spare time before Top Gear starts, hope your uploading speeds are faster than mine
cant wait for this!
andrew!!!!! great! My birthday is 6 of July and your tut is the greatest present for me!
Your rendering speed in tutorials is much faster than this time. Your computer must be very slowly. That explains the usage of Paint.
no he means rendering as in rendering out of camtasia for the final flash tutorial files, i know because i make tutorials, usually it takes longer then the actual tutorial, so it must be a long tutorial, 30 minutes +
Well, there is a little more to it. Graphics and blog entry plus upload after rendering.
thats true, it gets annoying doing it every time for every single tutorial, but its worth it in the end, cuz you know you have thousands of people who watch, learn and enjoy your tutorials and have a great time.
i will be making another tutorial soon myself, but my mics not working so ill have to hold out till my new computer gets back from repairs(hdd problems)
I know what Andrew means. I was just kidding. It’s hard to wait. I’m feeling like in that Time Freeze tutorial. The time seems to stand still.
I’m really looking forward to the earth zoom!
Keep up the good work dude!
PS: MS PAINT RULES!
i like your site..i even like your mspaint earth zoom…
so cool, a perfect mouse drawing
*pressing refresh…must…do…pressing refresh…*
hehe lol I think my F5 button is broken. I hit it to many times.

“Andrew Kramer Says: Well, there is a little more to it. Graphics and blog entry plus upload after rendering.”

Can’t wait for the tutorial! No way is that created with ms paint I think its an HD stock photo. Very nice.
Meanwhile I’ll render my old earth animation without crappy camera (forgive me, I was blind probably) and put some link here :>
Maybe I will be one of first viewers of new tutorial \o/
