japanguy

However
July 2nd, 2009 @ 12:09 am

looks pretty good andrew! lol exactly at 12:00 cuz i live in vancouver!

Pretty awesome, but my favourite is the one for the bullet, but the sound design on thisi one is very exciting…

LMC
July 2nd, 2009 @ 12:10 am

Mind blowing…

July 2nd, 2009 @ 12:10 am

HA!!!! Your like me Kramer. I do the same thing to the users on my website. I say I am going to publish something on a certain day (if your case July 1st), and then I wait until 11:59 PM of that day to do it. Awsome trailer though. Can’t wait till I get the money to buy it.

Anthony
July 2nd, 2009 @ 12:11 am

Wow im getting ae2 today Andrew 2k!!! thanks man!

Erik
July 2nd, 2009 @ 12:12 am

epic! what did you do to create that 3d metallic font?

dan allen
July 2nd, 2009 @ 12:12 am

what? so to see the mini film we have to buy action movie essentials?

cant you post it.

when you said ‘trailer early next week’ i think i am not the only one who thought we would see the film thing!

Dan Allen

However
July 2nd, 2009 @ 12:13 am

3ds max buddy, not after effects

japanguy
July 2nd, 2009 @ 12:14 am

Hey Andrew !
One last question.
Where did you get your awesome music for your promos ?
Did you mix them all, one by one ?

dan allen
July 2nd, 2009 @ 12:14 am

oh sorry :)

Dan Allen

However
July 2nd, 2009 @ 12:14 am

yo guys shut it man giv him a rest, he will post the film thing soon enough

July 2nd, 2009 @ 12:15 am

Dan, that video is not part of the product, it’s a separate project. We’ll get into it soon enough.

Daniel Grid
July 2nd, 2009 @ 12:16 am

Man you are the Master, everything is cool (sound, effect, fonts ..etc)

I have only one question about the lettertype.

What kind of font did you use for it? Or you made the tekst in 3ds max?

I hear it form you Andrew.

Johann Torres
July 2nd, 2009 @ 12:18 am

Andrew, i know you must be a little tired for making this awesome promo, but i have to ask, when you have time can you make a tutorial of how to make those effects in the intro, or when the AE tittle appears?? it will be great :D

dan allen
July 2nd, 2009 @ 12:19 am

Thanks Andrew

You da Man!

Dan

Oliiz
July 2nd, 2009 @ 12:20 am

It was awesome… Though it was kind of dissappointing, I thought we were going to see some on scene action like for Action Essentials 1.

Good job, though.

July 2nd, 2009 @ 12:21 am

SWEET! I have been checking this site all day! It is past 2am here in MN so I figured you were going to post it today, you must be out in Cali!

Very cool though!

Tomas Holmberg
July 2nd, 2009 @ 12:41 am

Thats… thats just brilliant!
I would like to see a tutorial with that lensflare type that i’ve been seeing alot lately. That striped one.
I think you used it in the Star Trek intro aswell. It looks soo good!

Thanks for everything Andrew!

July 2nd, 2009 @ 12:48 am

I love the trailer. You always pick great music and do a great job creating epic motion graphics. I am stoked about this product.

July 2nd, 2009 @ 12:54 am

I would love to download and watch the high def version of this trailer. It’s awesome!

Vikram
July 2nd, 2009 @ 1:00 am

Hey Andrew…

Great Trailer…you said 60 minutes of training…that means it is only for the AE2 (How to use type)OR Have you also included some bonus tutorials in the pack? Like actually exploding a Car, a person Shot and blood coming out etc.?

Thanks,

Vikram

Nikola
July 2nd, 2009 @ 1:01 am

never seen anything better!!!It’s simply great…
by the way,where did you get that music?I liked it so much.

It looks nice! I love how the particles are shooting around. How’s that done?

braamling
July 2nd, 2009 @ 1:13 am

even this being the best trailer ever on videocopilot will it be possible to watch the old trailer? I can’t find it;)

Lawrence
July 2nd, 2009 @ 1:15 am

Oh my god! You need to chill out with this stuff AK. I don’t get paid for my freelance stuff for ages and I’m pulling my hair out. This product is keeping me awake at night thinking about the possibilities and I’m weeks away from getting it. Very cool stuff, I literally had a dream about this last night. Just a point as well, for those upset about shipping costs or splashing out on the 2K version… Have you seen how much it costs to buy just 1 pre-keyed fire element in SD from various royalty free sites? AE2 is going to smash these guys! Brilliant.

Loving it as always.

July 2nd, 2009 @ 1:16 am

Too Good Andrew!!

Ben Wotton
July 2nd, 2009 @ 1:23 am

ehhhhhh…….I want it right now! Why hasn’t teleportation replaced shipping yet?!!!

July 2nd, 2009 @ 1:24 am

Hey, really nice trailer. REALLY :)
So, shipping start tomorrow? :)

Sebastian
July 2nd, 2009 @ 1:33 am

NIIIIIICCCEEEE VERY COOL !!!!!!!!

And cool track where do you got it from ?? did you made it by yourself ????

Nice this is a cool trailer i’m looking forward to the action movie !!!!! :D

July 2nd, 2009 @ 1:38 am

Dude andrew, you gotta create a tutorial on that text effects that you made.

Donald
July 2nd, 2009 @ 2:02 am

The reflection of the blast on the bus (from your VFX Breakdown clip) was pretty sick. Are you gonna include that in a later tutorial or is it already packed in the DVD’s?

Double Thumbs Up on Action Essentials II!

July 2nd, 2009 @ 2:03 am

Oh Dear. Thats SO Amazing…Can’t Stop watching. Youre the MAN! Did you also do the Sounddesign? It’s Amazing, was waiting for the “Die Hard V” Slogan :D

July 2nd, 2009 @ 2:25 am

wow super cool

July 2nd, 2009 @ 2:40 am

I liked the trailer allot very inspirational and the music is awesome

Oh, don’t you just love the 3D titles. Nice texture(s) by the way.

Thanks for the amazing work!

Idan91
July 2nd, 2009 @ 3:57 am

Awesome trailer Andrew!!!

I have 2 question about it:

- Was the text made in a 3d program (3ds, c4d etc) or was it made in AE using you technique or a plugin like 3D Invigorator?

- Were the particles made using Particular or were they a part of the pre-keyed stuff you had shot?

Peace.

July 2nd, 2009 @ 4:19 am

Sickest trailer yet, Kramer…

Matt
July 2nd, 2009 @ 4:30 am

I love this trailer so much. I have an absolute obsession over 3d Text and graphics. I really want to take some time to learn programs like 3ds Max and produce effects like yours (me and everyone else in your community). Stand by, my order is ready for launch.

FloVC
July 2nd, 2009 @ 4:30 am

no comments, level of hollywood Kramer.

SASMHS
July 2nd, 2009 @ 4:42 am

I have a question Andrew ,
How do you match effects with music or sound in After Effects ?
Because usually it don,t have export for sound or music ?

Thanks

LMC
July 2nd, 2009 @ 4:44 am

Music is incredible, the beginning and first vocal chord (00:16 – 00:18) strongly reminds me a Freedom Fighters – Two Steps from Hell The music (Star Trek 09 trailer music). Anyway, excelent music!

Alex
July 2nd, 2009 @ 4:54 am

Amazing trailer! Can you tell me how did you make the 3d text with the bump?

July 2nd, 2009 @ 4:57 am

Andrew,

How awesome is this…that promo got my heart pumping. I’m making budged room right now to get this. Very good work…it’s hard to come by really good elements, especially at 2K.

Also, Andrew do you think maybe you could show behind the scenes of making Action Essentials 2(the more the better)? On the side note, I’ve been wanting to hear from others who have used the Red One camera, and I realized you used it for AE2. Was it really different then anything else you have used before?

Thanks,
Ryan

Great trailer.

July 2nd, 2009 @ 6:05 am

Andrew… well, what can i say… simple awesome like all your products.
Here at the ass of the world in Chile southamerica, we are about to begin our very own sci-fi serie and let me tell you, this collection comes like ring to the finger…

11:59 pm! You would, Andrew! I waited all day at work to watch this. You made it…this time <.<

July 2nd, 2009 @ 6:30 am

I think you needed to change the direction of the lens flares once in a while. Makes you a little dizzy… or maybe I’m just so blown away that it is mind boggling!

Hoxaver
July 2nd, 2009 @ 6:37 am

What I can say?
Awesome !!! ;p

Hey Andrew, great job on the new AE2 trailer. I was wondering if shipping started on Wed. like you said it might, or if the copys are going out on Friday as originally planned?

July 2nd, 2009 @ 6:51 am

Ryan O, Stay tuned for the Video Podcast. I believe he is going to show us some BTS footage

Jacky
July 2nd, 2009 @ 8:01 am

No, it is not, as far as I know.
Maybe I am wrong, since I do not have Pro Scores, my neighbour has ;)

Anyways, I wounder who is compositing these tracks..
Are they made by you? Or any classical composer I should know from music lessons?.. ^^

For me it has a strong touch of Hans Zimmer, but I guess this is nonsence…

Anyways, the bgm is awesome!

July 2nd, 2009 @ 8:01 am

Thanks Andrew for all you presented to us
I really appreciate it.

Hey andrew, loving the new site design and this new set looks amazing!!! Its a shame a carnt afford it atm

July 2nd, 2009 @ 9:43 am

when i finish watching this! My eyes poped out! that was the must beautiful thing i seen on effects. :D

Diego G.
July 2nd, 2009 @ 9:43 am

Andrew, sorry if someone asked before, but, When will you do the mini-movie you told us about? or it’s going to be a tutorial o something?

July 2nd, 2009 @ 10:14 am

The music is not from Pro-Scores, I try not to undervalue the products by overusing them in my productions. We license most of our music through various broadcast outlets.

highdefw
July 2nd, 2009 @ 10:14 am

@Diego, scroll up buddy

July 2nd, 2009 @ 10:14 am

@diego: of course this was asked before… look at the first few posts! and why is there a text-search feature in your browser? … sorry but just a little bit reading would have solved this…

Diego G.
July 2nd, 2009 @ 10:24 am

ok, sorry, when I wrote that I didn’t have time to read, Sorry again, :$

Carl
July 2nd, 2009 @ 10:26 am

How many of the elements ar CG?

July 2nd, 2009 @ 10:27 am

About 7.5 percent are Computer Generated.

lyndon
July 2nd, 2009 @ 10:47 am

One question Andrew:

The smoke at the very begining of your new promo for ae2 has a camera move to it, is the smoke part of the elements? Because when the BG orbits around the smoke, the smoke most definetly looks 3D.

thanks

July 2nd, 2009 @ 10:47 am

amazing trailer, ive watched it 7 times in a row. Can i ask the name of the production company that created music cue that you used in teh trailer please.

Thanks!

Dave Vegas
July 2nd, 2009 @ 10:47 am

Hey Andrew Kamer, the CG in this trailer is awesome! Please make a tutorial about how to make such a nice 3D Text “Transformers”-Like mini clip !

Thanks andrew already bought the product :)

keep it on

dave

July 2nd, 2009 @ 10:49 am

Lyndon, The smoke in the beginning is most definitely an element from the collection, I just duplicated it and put it in 3D space.

M.H.Salimi
July 2nd, 2009 @ 10:51 am

Andrew can u answer me please ? :)

How do you match effects with music or sound in After Effects ?
Because usually it don,t have real-time export for sound or music ?

Thanks

A Fan… What else?
July 2nd, 2009 @ 10:55 am

WOW! That’s a fantastic trailer! Well done Mr. Andrew Fantastic Kramer! I love it.

But BTW,…
can anybody tell me the name of the font which is used in the lettering ‘Action Essentials 2′ in the new trailer of AE2? I probably know many projects where this font could be used in =) Thanks in advance!

Greetings from Austria!!
Dani

lyndon
July 2nd, 2009 @ 11:03 am

talk about a quick response mr. kramer, thx. awesome compositing w/ the smoke, i never knew i could look so real. can’t wait to get pfhoe track now in combination w/ ae2.

Janne
July 2nd, 2009 @ 11:03 am

Hi,

I live in Finland and if I order this product, does it still include that free shipping offer?

And do you have any idea how much it would cost in all to me? ‘Cause it would probably be way more expensive to me…?

Zenkall
July 2nd, 2009 @ 11:04 am

hey Andrew, i think you said later this year you would be putting AE2 into the bundles, any idea of a more specific time? because i’m looking to buy all of the VCP products, and i’m wondering if its going to be a while and i should just get the 10+ bundle and seperately AE2
thanks

July 2nd, 2009 @ 11:09 am

Hey andrew what about the floating embers at the begging is that in the collection

July 2nd, 2009 @ 11:17 am

Brilliant!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

July 2nd, 2009 @ 11:23 am

Andrew,

I looked at the detailed element list, and it showed no sound effects.

Roughly how many sound effects are included, and what do they cover?

Thanks!

July 2nd, 2009 @ 11:27 am

Awesome trailer Andrew ;)
cool stuff

Hamed from Iran.

July 2nd, 2009 @ 11:29 am

Great Vid, i cant wait to blow up a car with a nice CGI cat inside, and a dog watching lauguing histerically. Then a piano falls down and then the dog does some matrix moves and finally the cat appears like a T-1000 liquid metal out of the car continuing with a fight scene to remember and then… i stuk at this part.

Any way, nice vid McKramer!

July 2nd, 2009 @ 11:30 am

*laughing

July 2nd, 2009 @ 11:52 am

Dude,
Awesome!!!How do u do that awesome lens flare? Is it a plugin..or is it all VC?

Matt UK

Mr Kramer you never disappoint, your work is awsome, in fact every time I see your stuff it makes me realise just how crap mine is. I often feel like throwing in the towel and giving up but your tutorials, work and products inspire me to battle on in the hope that one day I will be as good as you! The question now is though:car insurance or 2K version? Looks like I’ll be biking it to work.So not only will I have amazing looking footage in my projects but I’ll be fitter and healthier as well.Thats got to be money well spent.

Hey Andrew,

I know you have told us in Basic Training what the best settings to use when rendering, but what settings do you use ?

Good choice of camera for the new product Andrew. Without question, these keyed elements will look beautiful.
I’m guessing working with the Red One has taught you a few new things too!

Best Wishes to the Copilot Team

You know what Andrew, you are making us all look bad when you produce something like this:P
I will buy the 2k version if you don’t mind?
Do you ship to Norway?

Wow – Great Trailer .

Would be amazing to view it in high quality.

Thanks!

July 2nd, 2009 @ 4:23 pm

Andrew,

I’m interested to know what you use to encode your FLV files like the new trailer? Do you render them straight from AE? The quality is terrific…are you using H264?

Thanks

I guess the best way I can give my opinion on this trailer is to know that I’ve already ordered my 2K copy.

Looking forward to firing that thing up. Pun intended.

This is fantastic, what a visuals, what a sound and what an amazing concept. Everything Brillint!!!!!

Amazing work Andrew, ur a Genius!!!!!

One question: How did you make the metallic 3D text?
Is it a render from 3DS Max ?
I’m afraid you can do anything within AE, so I was wondering if that was made in AE or its a 3D Text rendered from 3DSMax?

Once again amazing work & amazing Product.

BUY IT – BUY IT – BUY IT

Warm Regards
Sandy

Love the promo! Ordered the product and then some. I barely know what I am doing but I am confident that if I work through your tutorials I’ll get there. I wanted to support the products to say thank you for giving of your time and talent so freely. Keep up the good work.

I don’t know why so many users here are clueless to recreating this trailer. With all the tutorials and tips Andrew has given us, it wouldn’t be difficult to come up with something similar. Come on guys! I’m disappointed!

Would you be able to post something or send an email explaining how to use the Python script to export camera data in blender when doing the Bullet tutorial off the Bullet DVD please!!
