Posted at 1:30 am on October 8th, 2007 by Andrew Kramer
This is a very exciting week for some big news and announcements. As you know we are quickly approaching the 50th Video Copilot Tutorial and we will be having a special celebration and we’ll also be announcing a brand new DVD that you don’t want to miss. (Hint: it is not a sequel to any of our current products)
Of course we have a brand new tutorial this week that should be a lot of fun and may include a special demonstration by yours truly. I hate to be so generic but there is too much excitement and I had to let you know.
And more importantly, I’m going to be Indiana Jones for Halloween

AN TIS EE PAY SHUN!
Just when I thought I might have some money for myself you come out with a new product… :p
Wonderful news, Andrew! Looking forward to everything
Ha ha! Go Jones!
Looking forward to it man!
LMFAO! “and more importantly…” lol
I really can’t wait! These last few tutorials have been so awesome, so I’m sure that that new DVD, as well as the 50th tutorial will be amazing!
andrew, you rock! i got all of the dvd’s and can’t wait for the new one!
Will the DVD be all the tuts grouped together in all their non-downloaded, perfect-for-home-viewing-anytime glory? Or something else? Sounds good though! I thought about going as Henry Jones Jr. too, but there’s also the possibility of Wolverine. Depends on the availability of fedora.
looking forward to all, nice to see un ingaged, just dont niglect your child ; )
Awesome. I can’t wait for the suprise.
Cant wait dude what ever it is it will be awsom HOW MUCH Ha Ha…….cool
You can’t stop to surprise us
Last year on Halloween I was a zombie and may be I’ll try in the same mood this year Frankenstein I guess.
No it’s not the free tutorial DVD, although that will be available soon. This one is much more interesting.
Awesome > > > >
you are always surprising us with Big Things.
ya, we cant wait
Awesome! My head is spinning with the possibilities. Maybe it’s a Pre-Matted Sam Loya Stock Footage DVD. Essential for any Videocopilot follower!
Seriously, I can’t to see what’s in store for us. My credit card is prepped.
Ohh wish we had Halloween here in Australia. Sounds like a laugh!
I think the tutorial DVD should be called “50 Golden Tutorials of the Copilot – 2005 – 2007″… Yeh, very excited about this week, in fact I’ve taken an overdose of anti-anxiety tablets just to calm down and now I can’t remember what day it is or who I am.
Thank you for telling us, Andrew.
As everyone else, I can’t wait!
OMG Im exited:D:D:D
Hey! Dont forget that you’ve got a family to take care of to! WE are just your anonymous little friends;) We can wait, your daugher cant.
But WoW! Great news anyway! Cant wait for both the tut and the product:D
You’re the greatest!
A new awsome DVD Products + 50th Tutorial Celebration + Twitch Plugin (?) + Halloween Indiana Jones Party ? :p

BTW, I never thought about it, but you really integrated this blog into your site very very well. Nice job indeed.
Wohoo…
Great news…!1

:D
I can’t wait either. I wanted to buy a couple of the DVD’s during the sale but totally forgot about the expiration of it.
Sounds awesome, really looking forward to it.
Just don’t let a giant granite sphere land on you. Seems to happen all to often around here.
Can’t wait! Big 50! And a new DVD. Sweet!
I was Indy one year for Halloween
Very awsome Andrew. You never cease to provide for us. But like plenty people before me said; we’re just a bunch of anonymous internet junkies
. You got a family to take care of. We most certainley can wait as long as you need us to. Real family comes first. Then internet family
.
Although…An Indiana Jones costume you say? Hhhhmm. Not sure I can wait for that one
. Indiana Kramer and the Fountain of After Effects Knowledge.
Too long for a title? Lol.
Best wishes from New York,
Denis
I cant wait for the new tutorial. Its the 50th; so much. But keep going on.
I like all of your tutorials. Really Great Work!!!
Indianer Jones is one of my favorite film charakters, too!
Why must you always get us hyped up and not tell us whats going on. I cant wait.
I’m in need of a new video copilot product…..I’ve used the others to death!!! Release ‘em quick so we can purchase!!
YAY! I can’t wait.
The DVD wouldn’t be Twitch and supporting tutorials…. would it?
Awesome! I am so happy.
I really can’t wait man. You’re what gives my boring boring days of the final year of senior high some light. I’ll hopefully buy a MacBook Pro anyday soon. And also your DVD ^^
Btw, Good luck with Halloween
Hope these be The RIOT GEAR 2

Sandy
Nice… lookin’ forward….
It’s amaizing how much influence Andrew has had on AE users (especialy young ones).
if u type in something witch incluedes AE, for example in Youtube, u’ll see the result of Andrew’s free tutorials and products! Andrew, most of what I know and do in AE, has come from U, young people over the whole world are now getting more interested in video effects and etc.
Thank U from the deepest corner of my heart. I owe U great thanks, as do many others.
Here’s a little teaser for my current project, in witch I have greatly involved most of VideoCopilot’s products.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=chjNO-O6NCU
! It’s in Estonian, but U can still see the effects.
Trailer coming soon…..
Thanks million times,
Märten Kaldamäe, aka Max
Indiana Jones, you don’t say. Big surprise, who’s gonna be Sala?
I think ou should give us a discount if we are upgrading. Or you could just give it away free.
good man!
last few tutorials are really good, loads of indepth information and nice workflows, easy to adapt in various other projects!
tutu-dudutuuuu duuu tu duuuuuuu
These are realy great news … Can’t wait
One question … why you did that to us ? you make me check your site every 30 minuts … even if nothing new … but still have fun with learning with your sweet tuts …
Thanks Andrew
Dear Andrew ….
why you do this to me ….. your website in my homepage …. i can’t wait.
last time you did a very big tutorial about face warp and it was fantastic.
this time i’ll not guess your surprise because it’s not from our earth.
thanks a lot
I have a feeling it’s the TWITCH plug-in……but that’s my guess…
At this point dude, if you said you made a tutorial on how you could physically pass through our computer monitor and enter our living room…as freaky as it would sound.,…it would not surprise me lol. BTW I hope your wife and kiddo are doing well.
I hope it’s the Forest Gump tutorial incorporating the old footage with new, or advanced compositing.
Dude, I think Im just gunna cry. Youre the man
OMG!!!
Andrew You ARE THE MAN!!!
Cant w8 for this one!!!
Andrew you just love having this power over us don’t you. But i thank you for the awesome tutorials you do for us and i do buy everything i can from you and my money stack is built up so let me spend it dang it:) Now once you let us know what the new dvd is will it be available right away or in a couple of weeks?
I just have one question…. Is it better than RG or DSFX?
I’m reading from vasque country (north Spain) and love your tutorials, I’m trying to improve in video editing by myself but with your help (and creaticows one) is much easier!!
I’m expecting that new tutorial as the new dvd.
Greetings, from Bilbao!!
PD: Sorry for my crappy english!! Lol XD
Wow this looks like an exciting week!
Thanks for everything Andrew, I can’t wait to see what this is going to be
All I can say is…., Bow-wow-wow-yippie-yo-yippie-yay
If all the online tutorials were put on a DVD I would buy them! For $50 or more
Having access to the tutorials offline would be really cool, especially when you are looking for something in the latter parts of a tutorial you wouldnt have to wait for 20 minutes of it to buffer!
Cant wait for the new Product!
a mystery new product? CAN”T WAIT!!!! hope its like riot gear or the sounds one, i love those too.
Sorry for my bad english. (im from the US ..HA!)
Im very psyched about these new release dvd`s. (though I did find a way of yankin` your tuts off of the site..just so I can watch them without freaking wireless network crapping out)
I shall sacrifice 50 bulls and 10 virgins in your honor!
I dont know why but Im also excited. Not to say I have piles of exams coming my way this week lolz..but the new dvd and tutorial hmmm *goosebumps*
Hmmm, the ‘Secret Product’ ay?
Well, I can’t wait Andrew! My money is ready!
Keep up the good work, and I’ll speak to you in 2 weeks or so..
Cool! Any idea when they’ll be anounced?
Woohoo !!! Could the 50th be the mystic Sin City Tutorial ???
Gratz, keep it up! Real good inspiration on my everydays’s work !
OMG it is 2:00 am in Germany and there is still no tutorial OMG
PS: Footage of Andrew Kramer as Indiana Jones in one of the next tutorials would be great
Just bought my first VCP product, and I couldn’t be happier with it. Great shizzle Andrew – can’t wait for more.
woooooo-hoooooo.
That’s a great news!!! thank you Andrew!!!
can’t wait for this.
lol, Indiana Jones
make sure you post pictures Andrew
im going to be holloween town sora for holloween and my wife will be winnie from wonder years… dont know why but i thought i would let you know.
2 new tutorials this week?! we are only on 48.
One thing that bothers me is that the media all over the world are finding secrets and info about celebrities that we dont need, at ALL.
So why couldnt they find out the secret about this secret product? that’s something people care about…
wow Andrew excelent news.
I hope, come tutorials for Website, for example intro animations!! with a size very little, as there isnt in all the web.
Only Flash, and flash and more flash
Greetings.
I figured it out!!
It’s going to a 50th Anniversary Wedding DVD
With a Cake and all the Fancy Silverware
Just bring it on im checking every half hour dam it….lol
greta to hear, i think i’m an addict to ths site and video co-pilot. i’m checking this site on a daily basis now. is it sad?
anyhow congrats on the 50th tutorial. you’ve worked so hard for us(sniff!)
Dear Andrew ….
u are really make different fantastic motion graphics tutorial
i can’t wait more time…
thanks a lot
Tutorials keeps getting better and better. Can’t imagine what Andrew has prepared for us this time
I used to check out the website about 10 times a day. Now i must bump up that dose to 50 times a day just for my addiction problems…..
Bittersweet love…

Bittersweet love…
can’t wait… i hope there will be another 50 great tutorials coming!
We really do NEED a formal forum here I think. So many times I want to ask questions (like this one) which are, strictly speaking, off topic from where they are posted but related to the tutorials and/or VC products.
I’m interested to see if anyone is interested in sharing AE projects containing compositions made from the sound FX disk. Not to include the sound FX you understand, just the projects themselves so they would only work for those who have the soundFX product. Might need to search for the sounds files but that’s OK.
I’d love to see and/or share build ups/fanfares etc with others.
And just to bring this post back on topic. Can’t wait for the new product. I have little doubt I’ll be making a purchase along with the offline tutorials disk when it’s available. As I hope both these new products will appear quite close together I hope a special ‘bundle’ price is going to be available
best wishes to the family.
Alan
Apologies! Broke rule #5 in the above. Please edit as apropriate!
Cheers. Alan

Awesome. Can’t wait for the new product…
You sir are a machine.
Awesome! Great news! Looking forward to it. I just received Designer Sound FX and Film Magic Pro, coupled with my existing Serious FX & Compositing and Riot Gear … and all your fantastic tutorials … I am putting together stuff that while simple in comparison to what you can do, is definitely impressing my friends and family. And that’s what it’s really all about anyway, isn’t it?
Keep up the great work. It is very appreciated. Looking forward to what you got cooking for us!
I finished my MEDICAL ZOOM test!!! it’s pretty cool!!

Hey Andrew, these tuts and presets are amazing, and really are in a class of their own!
Have you seen the trailer for the new movie JUMPER yet?
Check it out and tell me what the end zoom effect reminds you of?????
I swear it’s an exact rip!
People, check this link out to see just how far this site is reaching!
http://www.jumperthemovie.com/
Nice find Workshed. Pretty cool to see that
yeah, I saw trailor for Jumper today, looks very familiar! geez, even smallville had that effect, for awhile. Now they wrapped an entire movie around one effect? and of course Samual Jackson is in it; He’s in everything, isn’t he?!;)lol
keep keeping it fresh Andrew!
So when is the big DVD anouncment? Its already Thursday.
Andrew has set the bait, now we patiently wait…
These fantastic DVDs take time to produce and I for one an certain, it will be worth the wait!
I have no idea where Andrew finds the time these days for his own clients, family(especially new daughter), while still taking care of all of us After Effects Junkies;)
We are a big part of Andrews income. Which i don’t mind giving him because he gives us these wonderful tutorials for free. What other website does these things for the people? Only our man Andrew.
Yes, Of course. These tutrials are starting to be like Crack!:), But good Crack!:)lol.
hmm~ enjoy your Halloween. Mr.Jones
Guys, thanks for the link to the trailer for JMPR. Looks like an awesome film!
Wow, even Hollywood is paying attention to Andrew’s site! Way to go brother!
Looking forward to the upcoming Tut DVD.
Hope this finds you and your family doing well….
Best….

I don’t mean to complain, because I absolutely love this site, and yes, I have bought some of your DVDs, but I thought you said this was going to be a big week… I guess the week’s not officially over, but practically… Just wondering if you meant “Big Month”.
Yeah.. Andrew.. my F5 button is almost broken.. =)
Yeah.. Andrew.. my F5 button is almost broken.. haha i feel the same way
I CAN’T WAIT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
As it seems there is a delay in the release of this new “Product DVD”,
And as such we should all be patient as to it’s “Arrival”.
There are many factors in life, And in Business that make it Almost “Impossible” to be precise to the exact date of a new product release.
So my advise is to relax those “Mouse Fingers” and give Andrew Kramer time to “Iron out the Details” so we can fully enjoy this new “DVD Release” and it’s price tag that I’m sure will be “Affordable” to us all.
Not to mention any free tutorial that may accompany it.
I NEED A TUTORIAL!
ITS LIKE A DRUG TO ME!!!!!
here’s one it was on YouTube:

kool video
Hey Andrew, what kind of camera are you using? I use the Sony Z1-U, but I want a new one that shoots in 24P modes. Just wanted to say that your doing a great job here and I have a question? I see you have alot of footage to use in your tutorials. Do you have some movies that you made that we can watch, like some shorts are something? If so where can I check them out?
Thanks for the work you put into this info. I\’m checking back every week for more.
Yeah Indiana Jones, yeah!
