Merry Christmas and greetings from Belgium

Happy Holidays and thank you so much for the tutorials, it has made my job of composting a lot easier.

Andrew, I just purchased Evolution! Thank you for the 40% discount! Had my eye on Evolution for months, and was waiting to see what Optical Flares looked like, and then prioritize the purchases. Your discount really made it impossible to wait. In honor of you discount, I will refuse to ask anything about your 100th tutorial in this comment ….oops, slipped

Allready got the Evolution pack…but thanks a million for the project file…now i got my digital x-mas card for my clients ready in 2 min…you rock dude!! In fact your rock so much i desided to chance my homepage to the videocopilot.net site !!! I’m starting to think about changing my wallpaper from the ugliest wallpaper ever made by my gf (and she makes me keep it on the pc…and yes she checks it often :S) to a nice videocopiot wallpaper ….it will be worth the beating …i hope…

Happy X-mas from Holland guys..make it a good one!!

p.s. you guys should make some backgrounds for all the fans around the world !! I’ll be the first to download it !!

Merry Chirstmas to VideoCopilot crew!

wow. . thanks VCP!!!!

happy holidays!!!!!!!

ho ho ho ho!!!!

Hi Andrew. Nice one! But aside the animation I really love the “smudge.jpg” texture and was searching in my texture collections for those on-camera-artifacts/grunge but did not find any. Did you photograph those or where can I get more of these?

However, happy holidays to you and your family!!

Thanks Andrew. I appreciate the gift. Have a great week.

Thnx a lot Mr.Kramer for this cool stuff. One question…
What windows are you using now? Please respond to my question… My after effects is not working well with my sp2. THANKS ONCE MORE

Yo kRAmer Merry Christmas to you and the family.

thanks a lot!

*still waiting 100th tutorial*

WOW!!!!!!!!!!!I Just Love Evolution……….I have Planned to Buy It This Week After I Watch “AVATAR”—-For Sure………..

Seriously if you don’t own Evolution already, what are you waiting for people?!
I’m tempted to buy it a second time it’s been such a great tool.

Are you lonely? Sitting there in your underwear, using this mornings beer can, as an ashtray? Well if your like me, and I know I am! you will want those hotties from the mall to give you the time of day. And how are they gonna do that, if you don’t have this great product? I just got this! I am already noticing some new hair growth and I think I look slimmer. It’s true! Chicks dig guys who use Evolution!

I purchased it just 1-2 days before But nevermind ..great product,Thnx to videocopilot and and Andrew for this and for great tutorials.
Greetings from Estonia

Raul

Thanks for the discount! We love everything you have on your site!

Feliz Navidad y año nuevo 2010 desde España.

Merry Christmas and New Year 2010 from Spain.

actually this is great post Andrew great man good luck

Andrew, I know it’s unrelated, but…
Have you ever thought about doing VideoCopilot Wallpapers?

Yeahhh

Muito bom!!

Feliz Natal Para TODOS!!!

Merry Christmas Andrew and thanks for the discount. I’ve been wanting Evolution for a long time but it was just a bit out of my price range. Just placed my order and am looking forward to using it.

merry christmas and happy new year to all of us here! more in 2010

Thanks AK.

How do u come up with this stuff, do u like, see a commercial and recreate something like or whats. anyway, after i got evolution i forgot there where any tutorials so i just figured stuff out on my own, but theres one problem, my little preset/ plugin thing to make it so all the evolutions are stuck together by a null object doesn’t work. ive watched the tut on it, and followed it step by step but it doesn’t function properly.

Well, i hate using other peoples ideas, especially yours, so im just gonna make something similar, but i dont know where you got that background.

Look at the size of that deal, mate!

Any news on when Optical Flares will be released?

MERRY CHRISTMAS TO ALL!!!! (Especially Andrew Kramer)

If I didn’t already own this, now would by my chance to get it. To those of you who don’t, if you have the money, it’s more than worth it. As are all of the products from VideoCopilot

Check out the trailer I made for a live show in Toronto this Friday. All of the FX shots were done using Andrew Kramer’s tutorials and products.

To Andrew, I bet that if you allowed uploads of samples done by the users you would get more excitement and interest here on your already cool site.
BTW: I am definetly considering buying evolution.

awesome project…..u rock AKKKKKKKKK……

Thank You yet again Andrew Kramer for additional content and tutorials, can’t wait to purchase Optical flares when it comes out, they looked outstanding in Star Trek!

May you and your family have a great Holiday season!

PS: However, I do have a question, the smudge shot, how did you achieve that by using an actual lense in a studio shoot, or was it photoshop/AE Montague?

merry christmas to you Andrew am glad for this speacial gift for christmas we the evolution users thank for the tutorials may God give you indept knowlege in AE so that

we too can learn more i say more gress to your elbow

Looks really nice, maybe I’ll purchase Evolutions and download the project-file.

Merry X-mas, Andrew from south Korea.

I wish you get a big earning next year!.

and teach me more more more !

You are the best!
MERRY CHRISTMAS!!!!!

Thanks my friens…you are the ONE!!!!!!

Merry Christmas from Italy…

Bye
Gianni

Merry Christmas !!!!! and happy holidays

Thanx Andraw and happy holidays

Thanks Andrew !
I think you should go for a tutorial combining the previous glass orb and this title !! I bet there is a lot a learn.

Wow this is awesome but that free christmas project file is not downloading right. Once you open the file project you receive an error message that some file is missing. I guess that is the ornament brush layer. Thank you!!!

Merry F/X-mas to all the folks of Video Copilot. Thank you for all the great tools and tutorials.

@Abner Garcia:
Read what Andrew sayd at before…
“all you need to do is relink the one missing file with your Evolution collection…”

yeah it also dose not work for me, after relinking the one file the Comp looks ugly and the other design around the circle are missing

happi holidays Andraw

waw! thank you adrew and staff hehehe

Yeah! Let’s keep Sam Loya out of the streets and contribute for his rehabilitation. Thanks, Andrew, for your tutorials, your great products and the inspiration for all of us, thanks to you crew (including that little fat guy, Sam) and keep going, doing amazing things, turning possible the impossible, at least, visually.
Merry Xmas for all of you and all of the viewers and lovers of videocopilot (including me).
Congratulations from Brazil.
Feliz Natal a todos vocês e um abraço!

Merry Christmas to the Team Video Copilot & Family!!!
from Argentina

Thank’s Andrew
Merry Christmas
When you Create A New PRoduct Again???

Thanks for the title Andrew! I used it as an ecard to send to the family

Merry Christmas…

Feliz Natal para toda a equipe da Video Copilot que tem realizado um trabalho incrível durante todo o ano.

From Brazil… xD

Merry Christmas from Serbia!

Thanks, this is great… I’m gonna have to try and make something simular to this one !

Merry Christmas and have a happy New Year!!

Question: Does anyone have the ability to save this project into a format compatible with After Effects 7? I don’t know if it can be done or if it’s been done before (and with some of the other proj files like the fire text one) but if so please let me know cuz I’d love to play with these projects =)

HI ANDREW

I just watched the AVATAR… today…..FANTABULOUS… It is one the best movies ever made in terms of visual fx and having a look at the making of the movie…jaw dropping…

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TJ7f0c30SZ0&feature=related

here is a link to the making… the marking goes way beyond basic understanding….

James Cameroon sure knows to break barriers… (of course Steven Spielberg too)..

Sure do have a look at the video very inspiring.

cheers
Suvir

hey andrew wish u a merry christmas !!! and happy holiday too.!! take care andrew. wish u all the best for your future projects….

Hello Andrew MERRY CHRISTMAS to ur family and all video copilot members.

Merry Christmas Andrew.

Merry Christmas Andrew and Thanks!!! =)

Hello Andrew happy new year 2010

Andrew, Nollaig Shona Duit agus do clann. Go mbeirimid uile beo ar an am seo gach bhliain.

hey man, nice work with the site. i tihnk that u have already seen it but, dude… red giant is going to release a 3d optical flares pack for knoll light factory…
a tought that you maybe helped them… did you ?
only curiosity

ps.: sory for the wrong inglish, i’m a 14 years boy from brazil so, it is quite normal.

thanks and congratulation again!!

another question: when are going to release opitical flares 3D i can’t wait!!!!
last month i spent 30 minutes trying to find one way to link an after effects light to an optical flare.

well, merry xmas to u and ur family!!!

Hello Andrew!
Great tuts all over your webpage ! Great work !
Best wishes from Poland and Merry Christmas!!

Hi Andrew,
Nothing to do with your sale, but thought you might enjoy this BBC news story about a low budget (lots of FX compositing) short film hitting it big (really big)

http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/technology/8417789.stm

YOU ARE THE MAN……..

mantap dah,,,,,,,,,,,,,

OMG first time blogger long time fan of the work andrew and the staff at video copilot put out!! You’ve taught me so much and have made me very confident in my work flow with After Effects. Although i LOVE your work in AE i also was amazed by the 3D vines tutorial!! i guess what i’m getting at with all of this petty small talk is MORE 3D STUDIO MAX TUTORIALS with using AE to composite color correct, ect. lol or just use Trapcode’s form and approach 3D that way hahah.. either way i would love to see Andrew’s talents with those plug ins / software

Thanks!!
Alejuandro

alejuandro

Thanks to Andrew and all of the Video Copilot team for the excellent products and the great enjoyment and education you provide. All the best to you and yours through the holiday season and the coming year. Happy holidays to the thousands of other fans who, like myself, are enriched by this site.

I am a Chinese film and television post-worker, I like your work too much, and really want to have time to be able to direct.

Andrew Kramer!!!!!Thank you very much!!!! You are my teacher. That’s what I did for one of your lessons –
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eKyKVR7bPJY

I couldn’t think of another place to put this so I’ll just comment here. I just now saw Star Trek for the first time on DVD. During the commentary J.J. mentioned you for doing the titles – I just thought that was cool and wanted to comment on it. – Good job by the way, man!

Linksmų Šventų Kalėdų (Merry Christmas) Andrew. Your DVD are great. Thank you! Greetings from Lithuania

I mean their plug-in

Hey Andrew, look at my Holiday video with your x-mas track…thank you and have a nice 2010!!!

merry kristumasu

Doooh!
I just noticed this offer at 1am on Monday morning…. An HOUR after it expired.
Don’t suppose there’s a teeny chance of extending it a little longer?

Andrew you are the best

i love this website andrew

merry christmas andrew.. god bless

Please andrew, give us Optical lens flare

Throwing in my thanks as well. First product I’ve gotten here and it was due to it being 40% off (poor college student). Love it! Keep it up, Andrew.

Hey Andrew,

Thanks for a great year of helpful and informative materials.

I’ve posted a holiday video we did this year for everyone.

It combines the use of Twitch, Action Footage Essentials, Designer Sound Effects, and other various techniques featured on this site.

Enjoy.

Gift for the community.
Merry xmas for you and your family
Frank

Feliz Navidad y prospero año para Andrew y todo tu equipo de apollo…..y milesimas grasias por tus tuturiales….muchas grasias. (o_O)

This title is very good

Andrew,
Unless I am very much mistaken, I believe that CanesVision, the crew who run the video and graphics on the technology for the Carolina Hurricanes, have been using an edited version of this title on the Videoboards for the month of December.

I have also seen them use some of the Evolution elements on other in-game material too.

Just thought it worth writing about. Good Stuff!

Seems another case of Evolution in the music video: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=t91FOEsolDw
about 3:32

can you make another tutorial pls
