Thats cool..I dont know what else to say..you’ve come a long way and to see your product being used by game developers, well popular game developer..is such a motivation. Good luck for the future!!

Hi Andrew.
I am from Bosnia and i just want to let u know that your great products are used at many broadcast designes in mid europe.

Wow, thats great.
I agree with John, just another proof of the quality and effort behind your work.
Thats an interesting use of your product, you should advertise it.

I would of never known! I play COD4 all the time man. I’ll have to catch ya sometime online, but beware of my sniper skills! Add me gamertag: INSPIRE84

Always loved your products and continue to purchase and use them in my work! Thanks brotha!

hi,

i first didn’t know what to say to this. i first thought that it is so bad that they are lazy enough to use that for their famous game. but that is on the other hand so much cooler. so u see u are very popular even in the game industries. so much quality and perfekt masked products what can i say more?
oh yeah. i wish the lynda gyus were more like you.^^

and in saw a lot of ads in television or other things where your stock-footage is used.

see ya -[Cloud]-

Video Copilot Rocks!!! Congrats!! , thanks for making these great products. You guys deserve all the credit. Good luck and Marry Christmas (or maybe it’s a lil early lol).

I am getting Evolution for my b-day, my girlfriend is giving me that series as a birthday gift. i wish my birthday were sooner, have to wait till December 9th :-S

Whoa! You broke out the CSI skills with the AME overlay match ups. Excellent work Detective Kramer! Only a true artist would be able to spot his work at a seconds notice. You can’t help to help to get the warm and fuzzies knowing how much of a global impact and influence you and the rest of the team have made with many especially at a professional level. You should feel good about it, Video Copilot deserves it!

Great to see you blogging again!

Hahahaha! I can’t believe that call of duty is using your blood in the game, that is just awesome

wow! that rocks!

This is especially cool news. I’ve been hearing that COD4 and AK work had some how been implemented over the past few days but it’s cool to see this news. That camera zoom look familiar.

Big fan of the CoD franchise with the exception of CoD3. CoD4s work is by no mean sub par because of this, but it’s good to see they make sure they cover all areas. Congrats Kramer…

I think I saw some of your Riot Gear work in Mass Effect… and a picture of your kid … weird!?

Again great work Andrew. Hope its a moral booster.

AMAZING. LOL. HOW MANY POINTS ARE YOU ON?

Hi Andrew,

Yesterday I had a job meeting with a motion designer who wanted to work in our little company. He started his demo with a video from your new DVD, telling me ‘I’ve got preanimated graphics if you want”… I said Wouaow and after I while I told him … hum, isn’t from Video Copilot ? THen his hands started to tremble…

Very funny

We’ll buy some of your stuff this week normally !
Keep Going

Lol I tried to add you as a possible friend. Apparently VideoCopilot cant be found… aww boo

Well if you want I am a VFX Supervisor over a small Animation studio called Jereye Animation. We do the ending credit logos at the end of Battlestar Galactica. I’ve used your products to help train interns and wanted to say thanks but also see how good you really were with that sniper. If you need a team mate add: MarkHawk

take care-

Congratz Andrew ;O

That’s pretty impressive! I guess that’s just another testament to how versitile the product is.

I have retired from Online Gaming about 2 years ago, I have many credits to my name in Online Gaming I have even had my name mentioned in a Magazine for my maps.
I started many years ago in Counter Strike making maps and writing plugins with Olo and Admin Mod.
I had one of the largest clans on the West Coast called KillingSpree many years ago we at one time had over 12 houndred members and seven Dedicated servers, Then years later I joined a COD Group called {SN][PER} Gaming we ran several servers and again I made maps and created {SN][PER} Mods for our servers, I truly enjoyed my Gaming days and now I get to share your joy Andrew Kramer, that is very cool they used your product in the latest release of COD.

Happy Gaming!

Wow… serious awesomenes right there.
You owned that game.

Have you seen the new Apple iPod add? Seems like not only the makers of Call of Duty used some VideoCopilot stuff but also the designers of the Apple adds use the new Evolution package and/or have seen some of the particle tutorials of Andrew. Definitly cool stuff, check out: http://movies.apple.com/movies/us/apple/ipoditunes/home/2007/ipod_itunes_queen_r560-9cie.mov
btw: Great stuff and very cool tutorials, I’ve already learned alot! Thank you Andrew

hehe, videocopilot rules!

Activision also used your Designer SoundFX on one of their trailers

awesome. i play the game myself and it would be great if you could do some gaming related stuff. already thought about a sequence like your speed variation tutorial taken from cod4

keep up your awesome work, you rock

That is spooky…I just got the game 2 days ago and I was thinking “Nice particles and textures” – Now I know why the blood splatter looks familiar!
- I would take that to be a huge compliment to you and the Videocopilot team..well done and keep it coming!

Cool never even noticed! been playing this game for over a week now its amazing! i love the multiplayer, im a General at the moment woo, the new ranking system is a great idea

That’s crazy man! I don’t think I would have ever noticed that one.

I’m gonna look out for you when I’m playing MP, you have a higher rank than me

Do you always play as VideoCopliot?

That’s hilarious!!

I’m hoping to get my hands on Evolution here pretty soon!!

Thanks AK!

All the best,

bE

If I play as VideoCopilot then it is tax deductible… JK I usually do use that handle though.

I think we should all put a little cash up and create a videocopilot server, just to get to know each other a little better? Is this a rubbish idea or what? lol

I am noticing your work turning up in a lot of places. With the release of Evolution it’s going to be everywhere! Personally, I just wouldn’t feel right without mentioning VideoCopilot and/or Andrew Kramer in the special thanks portion Also VideoCopilot games servers are an awesome idea! VideoCopilot should make indy films as well using some of your patrons as interns. Then release a DVD of how the film was made.

hehe sweet, owner in any way

Wow you own at COD4

Neat

cool stuff!

hey, congratulations… that a pretty big deal if you ask me. thoses blood splatters looks great so why not use them as much as we can right? once again, congrats and ill look out for it when playing the game myself

Oh yeah. I love you so much andrew. You are so cool ,and so talentet. You are the best…

Sweet…

Me thinks the next tutorial should be on COD4 strategy and skills?!?!

congratulations!

must make you wonder how many other productions out there feature your amazing products?!

and it obviously shows how professional your packages are, i own all but evolution and am very impresses with all of them.

keep the good work coming we all appreciate it!

oh and COD4 sales have probably increased thanks to this post

Thats amazing, dont know what to say.

Did you spoke to the guys behind CoD4 and asked them wheater its really your AME blood or not? that would be great. It really look like your blood

lol Andrew have you seen FPS Doug? Haha just watch the video…

Tommie… Did you roll over the images or even read the description dude…?

I had the same thing,
The blood looked awfully familiar but now i know for sure.

Great product + great game develepor = Even greater game

Good day to all, long time no see ; )

heh, u are surely not the only one aiming for the call of duty 4 serials, [ptsp] clan is one of the most popular clans ih Croatia, and it is allso making a CoD 4 team, it is a pitty you are in USA, udd have better time here idd : )

nicely done, congrats !

Congrats Andrew, that’s awesome.
c

Hey, Andrew… What servers are you playing at?

Andrew, what platform are you playing on? PC, xbox360, PS3???

I used video streams HD in an online series that I directed. I used other DVD’s in other episodes. Come check it out. The show title is Hollywood Celebeauties. http://www.saloncity.com

Andrew,

I was flippin the channels last night when I saw one of your ink drips on CMT. CMT Giants: A tribute to Hank Williams Jr. http://www.cmt.com/loaded/player.jhtml?id=1574435

The ink drip was used in the graphic opener and a few other spots in the show. I know the drips well since I used them also. http://www.youtube.com/profile?user=buddyvalentine

I love your stuff man, it is cheap, it saves me hours, and it is really high quality. Keep up the great work Andrew.

Buddy Valentine

to Drobins:

Prob PC since he’s taking screenshots..

Congratulations!!

By myself I don´t play that game, but I have to say: I think you are maybe the most famous GFX artist. How many hasn´t learned from you? And there are also tons that has buyed your products.

I gotta be right, heh?

THATS AWESOME! so cool. If it was my product that made it into a game like COD i would probably pass out. major props andrew.

wow must be a great feelin!!?!?

its unbelievable how youre doin this here… i think thi swas one of the biggest “thing” that showed you how perfect your work is….

very impressive!!

keep on rockin!!!

I cant wait to get this game i really can’t ihave seen the trailers for it, heard it bragged on the radio and people are posting about it on forums, I will have it soon though. And if i see a video copilot game tag, I will hunt you down lol. What game system do you have it on by the way?

I have not done an overlay, but the blood bursts in the Red Band trailer of Aliens vs Predator 2 reminded me a lot of the AME ones. The whole trailer is ful of digital blood:) I would have never noticed had I not found your site and became versed in AFX. Our own movie, a prequel to the Resident Evil 4 game is shaping up quite nicely. I will put the trailer on youtube soon. This project would have never been possible without the great AK!

BTW: Can you give us a clue what the next tut will be about?:)

That’s awesome! congratulations Andrew! I want the game right now

Dude that is really cool. Congrats to you.

Now I have to get the game just to check it out and wipe you out.

Whoa! Nice Work guys! I also LOVE this game and, you know, I think it was the videocopilot blood spatters that did that subliminal messaging to my brain saying:
“This is one AWESOME game”

I was happy to hear that cuz its the best game ever and by the way if you go on line look for my name .

Whoa! Nice Work guys! I also LOVE this game and, you know, I think it was the videocopilot blood spatters that did that subliminal messaging to my brain saying:
“This is one AWESOME game”

I also think that the next tutorial should be on tactics for FPS games (esp COD4)

Wow Andrew! You must really know your products to be able to spot your own blood just by glancing at it in game!

wow nice haxs andrew

lol jk

anyways, i knew the blood looked so much like AME. now i know its certain lol

who plays with 240 ping? seriously.

Hey Andrew, you play the PC version or the console version? I have it for PS3. If I ever see you online you better watch it .

This post has been removed for being annoying and against the rules.

OMG! Andrew Kramer even has his own Wikipedia entry!!!!

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/God

If Andrew was a GOD, we would not need his tutorials to learn from, he could just touch our foreheads and makes us AE Proficient Artists at his will

ROFL Now Andrew can you do that?

VideoCopilot products are just amazing I was asked to do a little intro to one short movie where i used Riot Gear. Check it out http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0K132STRkYY – 0:52 – you could watch the whole thing but its basically trash … but funny one

Nic3_one,
I thoroughly enjoyed that video
Those girls are HOT!

hahaha Andrew…!
Kicking some ass online huh!?

I challange you for a fight, buddy!
I dare ya!
Ownage will be mine!!
“Boom! HEADSHOT!!!” :]
Muhahahahaha! :]

Impressive
After all that’s what your products are for…
they are designed to help professional do their job, and it seems that your products are doing their job
=D

one more thing, why i can’t put the little funny faces in my comments, i use firefox

like the ones in the comments above mine.

WOW! Thats so cool that huge company uses AME! And not to mention, the COD games are amazing…

Pretty cool…nice to see VideoCopilot becoming
the VideoPilot for games.

Thx McLovin
Blond one is directors sister and other one is his girlfried

I havent played COD4 yet. I have been playing Halo 3 and Gears but I am going to have to check it out now. Thats so cool. I will be sending you a friend request but you will probably get a million of them now. It will be coming from FloodJLC

Hey Andrew,
It’s hard to say for sure, but it looks like the new iPod TV ad uses a bit of evolution.
Check it out: http://www.apple.com/itunes/

Tom Wood,
I have seen that commercial twice tonight I can swear it looks like Evo, and in the beginning I think they even used twister.

Cool

this one here
http://www.apple.com/itunes/?movie=b

Hello Andrew, great publicity…..Much Kudos……Excellent!
What are you playing COD4 on?

AND YES!… more and more razons to have a brand new cool looking ACTION MOVIE ESSETIALS 2!!!!!!!!!! yeah
we wanted!!! we need it!!

it will be a blast.

greetings.

That iPod commercial looks totally cool, and if it isnt AK’s Evo used in there, it looks pretty close. Just goes to show another example of how cool that product really is.

Nice find.

(Status: Writing)

Lol,
I can’t prove them wrong, AME is the best.
You can’t create a proper shooter without it.

Ok, now back to CoD4…

SXForce

(Status: Playing CoD4)

Haha, that’s awesome Andrew Especially in such a great game it’s fun to see something you’ve had your hand in! Gratz on that mate!

That is seriously awesome. When I was playing I actually thought “I wonder if they used some actual blood stock footage thing for that stuff?” But I never thought it would be from VideoCopilot! What rank are you now? I’m at 22, but that’s only because I’m stilling playing Team Fortress 2 so much.

The products are great that’s why people use them.

I’m from New Zealand and Riot Gear is used in almost every ad on TV.

Biscuit companies use it search “Arnotts Tim Tams”

and

One TV station uses the liquid dye overlays for the main splash before and after every show search “Channel 2″

Anyway, keep it up…

T

Andrew you actually dug it out , awesome! You might want to look up some of the Family Guy episodes, they also use similar or perhaps the same VCP blood effect .

Andrew,

I was just watching Dirty Jobs on the Discovery channel, and I think they are using your Riot Gear ink splats… I tried finding a copy of the show online but was unsuccessful. Anyone else notice that?

George

Andrew,

Congrats. Thats so awesome that you got your stuff onto Call of Duty 4. BTW, how do you take a screenshot of a video game? Are you playing on your computer? Thanks.

-Joe

OMG I just saw an explosion from AME in a crusty demmons ad. I live in aus OMG

Earlier tonight I saw some riot gear footage (ink drops and tv noise) used on a low budget local show out of Seattle called “The DT Show”
http://www.thedtshow.com/

Cool! Nice to see it being used for other stuff.

Yeah I think it is neat that you go to youtube and type in ‘andrew kramer’ in the search block and you see how many people you have inspired

lol last two weeks i mainly did three things: go to school doing video projects using the help off VideoCoPilot, making a cod4 promo video for our clan with the help of VideoCoPilot and playing cod4 what now seems whith the help from VideoCoPilot!!

Thanks for the great tutorials and greetings from holland!

hey i tried to add u but it said that gamer tag didnt exist. i think i can take you on. add me my gamer tag is ckbsometimes

tried looking you up, couldn’t find videocopilot as a match you must be on PS3, anyway anyone want to play sometime on 360 my tag is Grun Man

Ok, I need to call you guys out. Love the tuts, but you have a 45 PING compared to the rest of the players. Does this mean Video-Copilot likes to take advantage of little online gammers. I would like to play you guys on UT 2k4 or UT3 anytime. lol!

Nice tuts andrew!

I knew something was fishy with the blood. Amazing game though.

I see Riot Gear in the teaser of The Scaphander and the. Butterfly : http://www.cinemaquebec.com/aw/cvpa.aw/que/Quebec/f/188141/Le_Scaphandre_et_le_papillon.html

That is sick!!! What an honor…

My gamertag is:
OneandOnlyGMAN

Hit me up! Our clan is [SCAP] (Slow Children At Play)
haha

nice work!

Im on XBOX though, im not sure if you are on PC or what…

I feel like you would be a PC Guy…..

Come on tell us the truth!
That’s fake.
Is it?

Wow! Thats’s great! I play the game every day on the ps3 and its great to hear that. Its amazing, just amazing! Everyone is free to add me on the ps3: my name is Soerkie! Cod 4 ROCKS… VideoCopilot ROCKS MORE

That’s cool. I never knew that. AK, I challenge you to a match.

I thought that looked like AME! I guess I wasn’t crazy after all.

Very interesting…
-David

Lol, I’ve been playing cod4 since the day it came out and I never noticed. That is great.
