The 2K version of Action Essentials 2 (above) will consist of 4 DVDs in 2 dual-DVD cases, while the 720p version will be on 2 DVDs inside a single Dual case. Needless to say, both versions are packed to the max. There is over an hour of tutorials, including one based on the street explosion from a couple days ago.
Now if I can just finish this promo video…
Action Essentials 2 will be available in 2 Versions:
720p High Definition [1280 x 720] $99.95
2K Film Resolution [2048 x 1152 ] $249.95 (beyond 1080p)
UPDATE: Someone asked if they could see a list of the elements. Sure.
Here it is.

Awesome
Great Andrew.. It will definetely come handy for future projects
Looks awesome. Looks like I won’t be releasing an collection of action footage anymore…
black, awesome…
Hey Andrew cant wait till this is out!
Just wondering if it will be a part of the ‘10 Pack Favourites’ bundle and if so, how much extra will it be for the 2K version of AE2?
720p I believe will be more than enough for me, but I am tempted to get the 2k version.
In any case, finish that promo so I can hit buy after watching it itensively!
Iam really looking forward to that street explosion tut.
Are there also tutorials included where you need a 3d modeling program?
-Roy-
I really cant wait now!
Yaaaaar!
Lovely. I can’t wait for this and I can’t wait for the trailer. Your trailers are always fantastic to watch and it gives me ideas of how to advertise products. :] Much appreciated.
By the way, will the promo be that action movie you have been filmin’?
NICE ANDREW! i knew you would update in the middle of night so i stayed up…ok no product release but atleast i got something
thanks buddy..and tell me when i should stay up that night! lol bye
Just great Andrew , hope that i can buy it soon.
A 10 Pack bundle may be the only bundle we DO offer that includes Action Essentials 2.
The action ‘movie’ is something we are still working on but we will be releasing parts of it after the product launch. Our time quickly depleted when we started finalizing the DVD… it’s still gone
will the shipping costs be the same after the first month.
Yes, the shipping costs will still be the same.
If we buy the 720p version and later need the higher resolution, can we upgrade for the difference in cost?
Can’t wait for it!
The box looks awesome!
Last night I had a dream about it :S!
Andrew Kramer: You RULES!
this is gonna be awesome!
Jason, good question. The answer is sadly… no.
Oh golly gumdrops! I’m so excited!
Dude, you are killing us with the suspense of the release of this thing, but I know the wait will definitely be worth it in the end
Great!!!
Andrew Kramer, Im from Denmark, do you know how many days it take to recieve the product.
Aoutch… It hurts…. I’m crying :’(
lol
International shipping to most international locations is about 5-10 days.
5-10 Days is ok.
But how much does it cost for me if I live in switzerland?
Again, great andrew!
Priority International Shipping is $14. There is also free shipping on the 2K version for the first month. Including Switzerland.
AK the packaging looks awesome!! I’m sure it will be well worth the wait! 2K here I come!
I NEED THIS BOX ! I WANT THIS BOX !!!!!
Q : Why don’t you make “preorder” ?
There will be a pre-order. Just not yet and only a few days early.
Do you know, how much it does cost for me(approximately), if i live in Germany? Including duty?
Because I do not want to buy the 720p-Version, and pay the costs of the 2k Version.
when do we get a list of the elements? you know, Fire: 10, Water: 11, Explosion Fiery: 32, etc. I would really like to see that.
regardless, i’m buying this the SECOND it comes out
Disney could learn a thing or two from YOU about hype! But you got me. Sign me up for the 2k!!!
Forget the trailer. Release that damn thing.
We do need it for a project. It is exactly what we waited for!!!!!
Awesome list! Will there be previews of each element also (Like small gif. files or whatever)? Thanks.
Andrew release it on 4 of July. That would be awesome and historic too
Nice Andrew, the box is super slick! I will buy this I’m sure, ‘cos I’ve bought everyting else.. but I can’t wait for the promo to be honest…they are always my absolute favourite thing.
thanks andrew!!! i love how you actually read comments
I CAN’T WAIT!!! The box looks awesome and thanks for the list. ANOTHER PROMO!? You’re going to wear yourself thin!
The pain, the pain!!! When will you release.
All those sleepless nights!!
That list looks overoutstanding.
Trust me, this is what EVERYBODY wants!!!
Stock footage trully rules, and for that price, nothing can beat this site. Not even detonation films or even Artbeats! Where would the world be without videocopilot??? Can you ship this stuff to England?? If so then how much? I am begging you now! You are truely the best!
Cheers,
Matt K
Really interesting, but I have a question.
If I buy the 720p version and later I need higher resolution footage, will there be a upgrade offer ?
I’m so getting the 720p version the MINUTE it comes out!
For Full HD 1920×1080 footage the 720p version is good right?
Or is there any need to get the 2K?
Maybe I get next year a 2 or 3K camera so
regards
Thats it, i am buying it. Thanks Andrew!
Just going through the list of elements is making my mouth water
So stoked for this.
Will the video blog be releases around the same time as this?
Are there also free shipping in the first month with the 720p version ??
Couch Hits??
parmajean: I would Guess it is furniture hits
I’ve been looking for a reason to shoot my pesky neighbor for ages, now with the new muzzle flashes and explosions I can without fear of prosecution.
Credit card in hand awaiting for you to pull the trigger (No pun intended..ok, maybe a little one)
Thanks for the info Andrew. Wow, that list has tons of stuff in it. I can’t wait to buy it…the 720p…and later, after making tons of money doing videos with these elements in them, I can buy the 2K film version….SWEET!
Will it also be free shipping to norway the first month?
Couch_Hit_Side_04.mov is going to be awesome
Nice
So if I got this right, the 2k version has a month with free shipping ? does this include Norway to? Anyway i can’t wait to buy it
- Christian
Finish up that promo and bring it on!
my mouth keeps watering since AK announced this product.. June ending feels like 2 yrs to come. Big-up man!
Really excited about this coming out! I’m currently competing in a 60 second contest with a $10,000 prize, and if I win, I certianly plan on buying the AA in 2K!
I’ve got a feeling its coming out this friday
QUESTION FOR ANDREW: Will the updated full trailer be out after the product is released???
the elements list is amazingly charged
LoL @ PatrikTG I was wondering about the Couch hits myself.
I’m guessing the elements are all prematted?
Are all of the impacts and bloos splatters going to be like AE 1? like only taking up a small portion of the screen, yet it’s 720p? Can we like have a sample of one or something?
I dont want to have to scale everything up and the quality becomes horrible….
WOW. IM SO PUMPED
Hey Andrew, can you post a list or even some stills of the tutorials you will include on the AE? And what will happen to Action Movie Essentials?
Wow! That was one heck of a list ![]()
I can’t wait!
Love you Sir Kramer
OMG i cant wait!!!!!….!
This looks fantastic! I’m so excited I keep checking the site everyday! When?!! Thanks Andrew!
I AM SOOO EXCITED!!! Ive had dreams about this for the last tree days… I am so getting it!!!
The last time I got this excited over rocks and dirt I was 5.
Man Im doing the potty dance im so excited for this thing to come out. Its like being a little kid waiting for christmas. Come on Andrew my brother whens it coming?
andrew,
what type of codec are you using for the 2k version? looks rad!
Hey Idea!! Make a thumb drive with the the video copilot label on it sold seperatley of course, so we can take this with us where ever we go. I’d buy it.
Blank Thumb Drive, sorry should have been more clear
heaven came down and action essentals filed my sole
Yeah!
Can’t really wait!
I’m gonna buy a new cam too ;DDDD
Are there any of those long distand smoke and fire clouds? That’d be excellent for background mattes…
I mean some like this:
http://www.finalight.com/-/maindir/webpages/order/_SMT1_HD.php
Andrew is it possible to get to see thumbnails of some of these elements?
Is it possible to add instructions on how to resize the hd for sd use….I’ve tried changing comp size and being new that just wasn’t enough tweaking to make it work. Thanks in advance.
That list blew my mind…it’s almost too much stuff…almost…
You ROCK!
Why cant i open the file? im getting a lot of signs i wordpad when im opening it :S
Fantastic!!
When when & when ???!!!
Andrew as usual you have me biting my nails in anticipation but tell me this, I’m 16 and have only started visual effects in the past few months! I’m making an Action film with about 30 friends. But like I’ve only got a simple DV camera. Do you think I should go for 2K or 720p??? Thanks Andrew Can’t wait for It!
As mentioned, count me in for a 2K version.
Would it be better to upconvert to 1080P from 720P or would it be better to downconvert from 2K to 1080P?which would be better?
Very sweet elements!!! Stay juicy Kramer!
But i am not sure if i should buy these awesome DVDs.. i mean , these seems to be too high quality for my poor camera , it’ll be ugly! The elements won’t fit with the bad image quality in the background
What does ‘Charge’ FX mean on the AE2 element list?
Man this is going to be awsome. But….don’t know if it’s the work computer or not, but Adobe says the elements .pdf link file is damaged and cannot be repaired.
this product looks awesome.
Wish i could use it – computer and my head would explode.
jb
man this awsome release it cant wait i asked u about United Arab Emirates Shipment how s goin be
So class ! This is gonna be awesome !
Thank’s for all Andrew and everybody else =)
hay andy this is awsome u made it
but lil problem
well its to big to dl from net
so any way to get it ?
u know am in jorden now so that i have 60kb ps dl
well i wanna ask if there is other way i can get it
best regardes
Fantastic!!
Awesome-d00d-plz?,
The elements themselves can be adjusted however you need them to. You can always go backwards in quality. Same with the frame rate. My crappy camera inspires me to spend more time on my cg and effect work which is really learning the hard way, and in my opinion the right way.
Remember adjustment layers are your friend! And utilize P.E.R.F.E.C.T!
And if nothing else, who cares how crappy your video quality is when your cg intros are ridiculously cool!
Chad
That list blew my socks off. Slowly.
I just went from 6 to midnight….
Hey AK this is’nt really related to this post but what video camera do you use when shotting Raw footage?? thanxs
Mr. Kramer, will video copilot hosts a BIGFIRE sale for the 1st generation products?
Wow! That is an awesome list. I look forward to seeing the demo video.
After seeing the list of the live action blood squirts, hits, splatters, and bursts I found myself very concerned for Sam. Is he okay? Did you space out your shooting schedule in a way that his body would be able to replenish the blood?
From Demon Face to getting hit by a car, Sam is a trooper. You should bake him a cake.
You do a great job with your products. I see them all over TV. Canada definitely loves Video Copilot.
Thanks
Daaamn, new iPhone 3G S or AE2 2k???.
….
….
….
Damn you McKramer, you win!
A very long awaited this box)
Andrew please tell me the product comes to Russia?
Ohhhh a little expencive stuff for poor polish student, however im sure its worth the price. Saving some money i shall start:]
Will there be some kinda discount maybe? like Holiday 5%
Kramer for president!!!!!!!!!
OMG
i think it barely hit me on how really amazing this product is going to be!
LOL @ Amit
blow mr. socks!!!!
i really think your idea for an action SFX collection is great, i would totally buy it.
Hi Andrew (by the way – great name),
Did you guys ever consider selling specific sections if people only wanted certain elements? Like for $20, I could buy only the blood or only the fireballs.
I think that’d be pretty cool.
Hey Andrew, I was just wondering whether the 720p casing would look the same, if there is any?. Could you maybe post an entry of what that may look like?
Andrew-Im ready to order the pack (best of video copilot-10 pack) but i want also to be included the New Action DVD. So when its ready be shore that I am a costumer.
mr krandrew amer you iare man! DDDDDDDDUUUUUUUDEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEES! you socks!!!!!!!!!
Coool!
720p Box is a standard DVD case with 2 DVDs. You can see it on the teaser page. Minus the sparks:
http://www.videocopilot.net/products/action2/teaser/
oh my holy moly mister kramer! this is so damn..brilliant!!!
I am saving some money since a few weeks to get the 2k version..Cause soon I’ll have a Canon 3D Mark2..And filming with such a great camera requires an even greater product to spice up the footage..
Is it too much said if i say that i love you?
greeeets
SWEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEETTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTT
i am going to get the 2k one i have a HD 1080p camera but not a HDTV
well seems everyone ask this :/ but
can you ship the 720p at greece? and any idea about the price of the shiping?
also you said
“720p Box is a standard DVD case with 2 DVDs.”
you mean a really standard dvd case or this amazing big case?
why not this amazing big case that you have in AE2 page?
uh damn, my bad i just saw that the case of the ae2 page was something like the huge pack of the 4 expansions of the world of warcraft.
the other questions still remain
uh damn again, is there an edit button for the comments around here or i miss something?
nevermind about the case… i just wanted to say
they are both 720 1080 the same. cheers
Please stop bothering this man! We must let him finish!!
Iam holding my hand to my chest ,standing firmly with my head high in silence, i salut all the guys that made this possible, stayed up late to working in the dark and cold with only a flash light and nothing to eat but an energy bar ,to andrew and the crew of videocopilot rock on soldiers.
I really want to buy this piece of awesomeness. But it’s not available for download and I live in Iceland. Is that a problem, or?
I have yet to take the plunge and support videocopilot despite it being an excellent free resource for After Effects artists and filmmakers alike. There’s no way I’m passing this one up.
SUPPORT VIDEOCOPILOT if you have used their help in any way
whats the difference between 2k and 720p other then quality and size is there any substantial differences that effect the use or is only quality and size?
Dude!
This looks awesome. I am definitely in. Especially after reading the list.
In another post, did you say you would offer free shipping the first month? If so, does that include this in a combo pack?
(I still need to pick up pro scores)
Hopefully it gets released soon so I can take it on my trip to Iceland on the 3rd. Also if you need any “Icelandic textures” just let me know. I can take some close ups of lava rock, wild flowers, hot babes, etc.
Thanks,
D
Andrew,
How do you make the DVD Cases and Covers?
Templates..? Do you have the template and a nutshell explanation of the Action Essentials Box (Like you show in the Angry Monster tut with the “Aim Away From Face” example. The case is laid out flat. Im not to fluent with Photoshop, but do you is that basically 3 essential layers and you just use perspective to box it up?
I just feel the need to mention that some people who are looking to buy the 2K version don’t really need to.
If you have a regular HD camera, 720 is enough.
I’m sure these effects scale up nicely if it’s needed.
To Orhan,
I thought of that also but I’d rather the option to scale down and keep resolution than to scale up and to lose quality.
Good point though.
Casey, Sydney – Australia
****Orhan releases Action Unnecessaryentials Vol. 1, post keyed for your own frustration. Tutorials? What are those? I got this camera at wal-mart!******
FORGET THAT!!! I WANT Action Essential 2!!!!
Andrew went to the Jim Jannard School of Marketing.
BTW, that’s a compliment.
Chad, I didn’t really get your joke.
All I’m saying is that the supposed “loss of quality” isn’t noticable if you scale up, but that would almost never be the case.
It would make more sense to buy the 2K version if you had a RED.
Andrew:
I guess I’ve been coming to the site for over a year now. I simply wanted to come out of the woodwork and post a thank you. Thank you for the time you put into the tutorials. They are fantastic.
Incidentally, I just received Pro Scores, Evolution, and Sound FX in the mail today. They look great!
How do you shoot live action footage of blood?
Exploding the veins on Loya’s head?
I Actually waithing for a Evolution 2, or may be (R)Evolution…haaa?? good name isn’t
So, excuse me for being a cheap bastard and all, but I have to ask. Is there any chance the old action essentials will drop in price when 2 is released???
Zack, we are discontinuing that product.
Does videocopilot have some sort of tech support? Someone who could come over and clean all the drool off of my keyboard?
That list of elements sealed the deal. I am definitely buying AE2!!
hope you made enough……your about ready to get rich!
Andrew, i love you in a non-weird way.
Can’t wait, definitely buying this as soon as I have 100 bucks to spare. Thanks for all the knowledge you share Andrew, hope you get rich off this.
you are discontinuing action movie essencials??? WHY?? it has so much nice stuff in it…like i actually cant imagine this one being better than the first one, i only think this new one is in HD…but you put alot of work into the old one…comon dont cut it out!!!
Well we definitely put a real budget into this product and the better part of the last 6 months. It took over a dozen guys to accomplish all of the effects not to mention the post work we did. The success of this product will certainly lead of other high-quality collections at great prices.
I hate to sound self-serving but one of the keystones of Video Copilot besides all of the free stuff, is providing great tools in the $100 range. When I first started $100 in the professional world of software and tools couldn’t get you much. Even now it is tough to find quality stuff that is affordable. But, being able to keep that price point in place is hard coded into all our future plans.
the new collection of elements sound amazing and the package looks SICK. great work as usual to the whole VCP Team
Thanks for all you do for us and keeping those prices affordable ofr the mere mortals!
Caceling the first one? is there a reason to kill it? just wondering if there is no real need to have #1 if you get #2?
“When I first started $100 in the professional world of software and tools couldn’t get you much. Even now it is tough to find quality stuff that is affordable.”
I couldn’t agree more. You guys put out nothing but great products too. I’ve bought the Riot Gear and Video Streams products and think they are great. I’m just glad that people like you allow broke college kids like me the chance to purchase these kinds of tools…
Andrew! PLEASE ANSWER!!
Will there be free shipping the first month with the 720p version as well??
Aleksander
Only the 2K version will be eligible for Free Shipping in the first month.
Do you know what it then would cost me getting it to Denmark?
To Orhan,
Mate I meant no disrespect. I was just under the impression that having the 2K version would be more of a benefit in case I had to do a lot of manipulating.
Peace
Casey, Sydney – Australia
Oh. My. God. O. M. G. OmiGod.
Oh my god! The list is huge!
Buying this product asap when I get the money. This will be PERFECT for my miniseries…
Great job to AK and his team… The community owes you a few lives ![]()
-David
So when is Action Essentials 3 scheduled to be released?
oh, NICE andrew, im the guy who said this wont be as good as the old one..ok so you can promise me if i buy this product…and since i lOVED action movie essentials, i will love this too, if this is true i will for sure buy the 2k version!
Wow I LOVE that you included couch hits in there =P and wall cracks and things like that, I can’t wait to shoot an indoor scene where I tear up an apartment lol.
I can’t wait for this. I just need to get a job and start saving some money for it. Oh.. and find some willing actors to appear in my movies.
One question though.. WHEN is it comin’ out?
That must have been a real fun parts to name correctly each of those elements
SO WHAT’S THE RELEASE DATE? TELL ME THE THRUTH… I just can’t wait anymore… bouhouhouhou
wow, with all this hype this collection better cure cancer or something, this is as crazy as the batman hype!
but seriously ever nerd, hobbyist, and low budget filmmaker out there owes you a huge favor (myself included on all three counts
)
Your last tut was viewed 248,258 times and counting, divide that by a lazy half viewers and times that by the $99 dollar version of this series and you have made yourself a little over 12 Meeeeeeelllion Doolllaaarrrs *pinky in the mouth, camera zoom in*
WOW.. I wish you the best, and I finally know a millionaire that i don’t have to ask “how’d you do it”… I already know!
Hats off to persistance and passion!!!
KC: LOL, youre wrong… bad boy
KC, I wish it was that simple
This action essentials is sooo awsome.
I mean 500 elements for only 100 dollars this prize is so fair it’s not even funny. But I live in Iceland so the exchange rate is so bad for Iceland that this stuff is like 40% more expensive for me ..
and I don’t have a credit card so I don’t think I can buy this .. but maaan you are awsome =D
-A big fan from Iceland
hi andrew,
can i exactly kknow the release date for action essentials 2 please
Well I admire everything you are doing, your talent and dedication. And most of all for sharing it with us! And i still think you are cutting yourself short selling for $99 US dollars.
Gimei: “whhaaaat? what did i say. whhaaat?” *jerry seinfeld style*
Kramer for president!
Hi AK dose the 720p version have everything the 2k version has besides the the higher res.
GREAT! Definitely going to save up money for the 2K version!
Hey andrew, i was just wondering how do you make these action essentials. Is it just After effects or are you filming the effects on a green screen and cut al the effects out? (Pure out of curiosity)
THANKS!
hey there i just wanna know if the tutorials will be available online??
Some of you need to read a book about marketing, jeez.
KC: hehe, i’m joking
Do you know what it would cost me getting it to Denmark?
I’ll Buy This !!!!
Holy smokes, that list is comprehensive. I honestly couldn’t say which elements I’m most excited aboot. Great stuff as always. God bless.
hi kramer i couldn’t believe my eyes when i saw the list of elements on this. . . . . i CANT WAIT. . . . so could you maybe tell me the release date because i think i speak on behalf of most of us . . . . WE CAN’T WAIT
great tuts and products. . . you really are a great guy at this stuff
cheers
Times moving andrew !
you only got like five days, or will you need to break another promise?
I am about to ask the strangest question you will likely ever receive, but do you happen to have a clergy discount. LOL… I know strange question. What kind of minister would be looking for explosions, breaking glass, blood splatters, muzzle flashes, fire, smoke, and dust? Well this one is. Out of necessity I became the resident AE guy at the church, self taught mostly from Video Copilot. We have used movie making as a tool to work with the young people in the community. We have promoted and held 2 junior short film festivals. They were so well received that I am starting a rudimentary summer workshop to introduce some of the kids to AE. Action Essentials 2 would be one heck of a tool to help with our program. I am sure you have never had the need to give a clergy discount any thought before, but I just thought I would ask anyway.
How much pizza and mountain dew was consumed during this project? Will there be crumbs in the packaging?
please ignore all the lesser informed people, the real vfx artists appreciate what you’re doing for the community. Thank you for everything you’ve done for us homie, you’re the s**t!
About a week left of June
The video blog is right around the corner as well!!!
Andrew. Keep up the great work. Your prices are fair and right. I will always support you and the many others who provide products and services that make our projects that much easier to do.
People, support this place and buy the products especially if you want to see more things like this. That’s all I have to say.
Aloha!
Hi,
please use fedex for international shipping,
I had a real bad time with other carriers from usa to germany in terms of the goods beeing stuck in customs..
Thanks
Holger
Great job Andrew, can’t wait to get the 2K version. It would be really dumb not to by this one! he he!
- Derrick
Andrew does it come with the case? or just the DVD box. In the picture it seems like its 2 dvd boxes and a case for both dvds…i hope this makes sense
Kr2
This gonna be awesome.
To be honest Andrew , this product should costs more, it’s a really good price for such interesting and usefull product.
Good luck with Action Essentials ;d
EEEEEEEEEEKKKKKKKK!!! SOOOO EXCITED!!!!
Sorry if someone aleredy asked to my question but does the sound of the elements is included ?? Because a good sound is often hard to find you know… Anyway i can’t wait good job andrew !!
(sory if y english is bad it’s because I am french ^^)
Andrew Please answer !!!
How much will it cost for me getting it to Denmark ??
Sebastian
Hey Andrew I cant wait for the release, I heard that we were going to be able to preorder Action essentials 2 I was wondering how much is preordering going to cost.
Hail Andrew! How much will it cost shipping to the philippines?
The price is great..if you look for stock footage like this on any stock site, they will charge you $10-$30 just for one clip
The box looks Great!
@lucas: I think they’ll be shipping a few sounds with it.
-David
Lotsa questions on the shipping of this. Andrew and crew will be far too busy too answer all these q’s trying to get this bad boy out the door. Let’s face it man i’ve seen stuff on the market with hardley the quality of this and they cost near 2k. And at standard def. Just get this in the 1st month and all your shipping worries will be mute. Thanks VC for being the number 1 advocate for us fimmaker wannabees. =0)
I tried posting a comment earlier, but it never showed. So if this ends up magically becoming a double post please forgive me. I am about to ask the strangest question you will likely ever receive, but do you happen to have a clergy discount. LOL… I know strange question.

Wow ,This is some great stuff Andrew , Africans upcoming designers can blow up stuff too ..Hehehehe
would it be better to downconvert from 2K to 720P or Upconvert from 720P to 2K
OOOOOOOoooooooohhhhhh!!!!!! `giggle…`
cant wait for it!
||Philippines||
down convert. no quality loss…kind of obvious
AGH! Your killing me! Please release it! I will buy it the second it comes out! Thanks you Andrew for all of your hard work!
Hey Andrew,
Just out of curiosity, what does the “car_explosion” footage look like? You don’t have to show it to us but maybe describe it a little? I’m planning on editing a car explosion scene (cuz come one… that’s just pure awesome right there) and was wondering just how much easier this would make my life.
Thanks.
Btw, Lucas, I think there’s a few sound effects in AE2, but for more, there’s actually some websites you can go to that give royalty free sound effects.. might be a good place to start (I found a lot of great ambient noises and even gun sound effects on websites like that).
andrew krame! is make the 2ks in HARD DISK?
wow andrew i just thoiught about KC’s comment…dude so with every freakn product you make 12 million dollars???? holy carp man!!! damn you must be HELLA RICH!
but you deserve it boy!!!
erm yeah sure. you think that every second guy who watches the tuts buys a product? i call that an optimistic guess
thanks for the answer guys!!
sadly no download version
So iam not up to purchased it.
my god, im salivating… im ready to blow shish up! It was either the 22 or Action Essentials 2. Needless to say im buying the 22 first, but ill be getting the later very soon
I just want you to know Andrew, that because of you I’m now going to go to a motion graphic design school and do this kind of thing for a living. You really are training your competition, and Thank You for that!
To buy a JVC GY-HD250 is just because andrew show his work with this cam.
Tabahi macha day ga ye to means it,ll rock

Well guys we wont have to wait much longer as it will be released some time in the next 4 days
Andrew!
Not answering, is that a sign of making the final touch on AE2HD????
This is AWESOME!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
It might be a bit delayed
highdefw, hes said its still going to be June so it will be out in the next 4 days..unless he announces a delay
The suspense is killing me! AAHHHHHH!!!!!!

So are each of the DVDs dual layered (8.5GB) or single (4.7GB)?
Which is what I’m expecting Louis…
I think this collection of elements will even have the Wachowski brothers drooling. . . in bullet time. :p
My only worry is regarding the length of each footage. Example: If you want to do a burning fire for, 30 seconds or so. If you have a quick fire footage you won’t be able to accomplish that.
Andrew and crew,
Reserve me a 2K copy of Action Essentials!! Yehaah!
Once again you’ve outdone yourselves!
Thanks tons.
So is international shipping free too?
This set looks so awesome! Think I’m going for the 2K. I own all the VCP products – they’re so awesome!!
Ed– Im sure that can be solved with expressions. I think he covered something of this nature in the Smoke Titles tut.
thnks!
Andrew, You made a mistake in the explosion video with the bus. The explosion isn’t reflected in the window of the bus. Reflection of the back bildings is still visible on the bus window instead of reflection of the explosion.
Thank you
