VIDEO COPILOT BLOG News, Updates, Projects Files & Tips |
|
Well things have NOT stopped behind the scenes here at Video Copilot we are still working on amazing things. The Action Essentials 2 HD collection just needs a few more gas explosions to make it complete, I’ll let you know when that is ready. What makes this product tricky is that we need to have the elements complete so we can make tutorials and the promo video with a finished feature list and information.
In other news, we have built a new download system to improve our customer experience that is just being tested and should be ready to launch soon. It will make downloading and accessing purchases easier and faster.
I have the soft shadows 3D tutorial recorded (3d max) and now I’m just trying to find time for the After Effects portion. I’ve also developed a separate tutorial for a similar effect done only After Effects, this includes a few other cool tips as well. Then on Tuesday, I’m shooting a scene for a quick tutorial to improve difficult fight scenes.
Don’t miss it!

Love what you’re doing andrew
great news good luck Andrew with the new product and I’ll wait the tutorials
Hey Andrew…
We all always wait for your tutorials and check out your blog atleast 5 times in a day for your post..

Cool Andrew…You are Actually a LEGEND….LEGEND OF AFTER EFFECTS….i really wanted to create a lil movie with your Photos, with the title LEGEND OF AFTER EFFECTS using the Awesome Tutorials you taught us and then Upload it to YouTube…but unfortunately i dont have ur photos…u r cool Andrew…May Lord Jesus Christ Bless You and your Family and everyone behind VideoCopilot.net
The tutorial sounds cool, keep up the great work! Also, I’m with Michael, can’t wait to see what you’ve got in AE2HD.

Ryan from INDIA
Cool as a cucumber.
Hey Andrew all sounds good. Though I’m a little apprehensive about the fight improvement tutorial. As a martial artist, actor and director I have a lot of experience in shooting, directing and taking part in fight sequences as well as working with professional choreographers and stuntmen (one of which was in both Gladiator and green street)and i feel there really is no substitute to having a well planned, well thought out and well choreographed fight using skilled fighters and actors. though with the amount of great stuff coming from video copilot I’ll trust you for now and sit back and look forward to the tutorial.
I hope there will be a download for the 720p Version of the Action Essentials 2 HD!
Hey Andrew…
Good works!
but your Chinese fans can’t see any tutorials in your web. It’s no good!
Can you change this?

Talking about news andrew.. Long time ago you’ve talked about an “action movie thing” with effects from AE2HD.
1. is that going to be the promo or what???
2. If not, when is it done???
ayos to!
“The Action Essentials 2 HD collection just needs a few more gas explosions to make it complete…”
If that’s all it needs to get finished, let me eat some of my wife’s cooking and I’ll be right over.
Can’t wait; I have been hoping for a tutorial on fight scenes!
Yes! I love the 3D-tutorials. Keep up the good work!
Greetings from Sweden.
Wow, Andrew, I dunno, man. That fight scene looks pretty darn difficult to do. I might have to up my RAM just to handle editing something that awesome.
hi AK..
dunno if this got mentioned here earlier..
http://www.gomediazine.com/industry-insights/28-staple-blogs-motion-graphic-artists/
i knew when i saw fight seen that it was gonna be that exact video lol
Awesome! I can’t wait!
Andrew, why don’t make a 3d studio max BASIC TRAINING? That’ll be great!!!
What ? It’s not a preview of the “fight scene” tutorial ? I really thought AK was the man in yellow…
Man, sorry, that means the lizard must be Sam. Gross.
That’s really cool.
This is the bee’s knees!
can’t wait for The Action Essentials 2 and 3D tutorial and every thing else!
haha this is best fight scene ever, i hope it gave Mr JJ loads of inspiration for the new Star Trek
You always have the best links. That was the first episode of star trek I saw as a kid.

When will Capt. Kirk learn? Never, ever use a back leg round kick on cheap aliens. They’ll see it coming from a mile away. Even when using backlot discount costumes. Use a front leg kick. It much quicker.
Yeeesch!
Daniel: “Awesome! I can’t wait!
Andrew, why don’t make a 3d studio max BASIC TRAINING? That’ll be great!!!”
Yeah, that would be awesome!
Daniel: “Awesome! I can’t wait!
Andrew, why don’t make a 3d studio max BASIC TRAINING? That’ll be great!!!”
I agree, that would be awesome!
The Gorn in the beginning of that scene sounds like my grandfather clearing his throat.
Can you make some 3D tutorials in MAYA.
I am waiting for the new product.
