Countershading…

I was so confused.

http://marinelife.about.com/od/glossary/g/countershading.htm

Hey Andrew, why do you like to use the transfer mode rather than the render on transparent feature? Is it a render time issue, just a work flow habit, or is there a visual difference? You’ve done it in several of the tutorials and promo material and I was hoping you’d enlighten us.

Fantastic!!! Great tutorial, but , don’t have the plugin

HAHA, sweet tutorial Kramer. Cheers!

So, is there EVER a situation where telling OF to render on Transparent is a better choice than changing the transfer mode to screen or add?

Looks Amazing,

Great Job.

Max.

That is amazing, I thought it was done in a 3D program (the smoke)!

Thanks Andrew great tutorial.

Hi Andrew Can you make a tut on how to make those circle. square and torus and how to add optical flares to them please.

Thanks!
Jefferson

Hey Andrew nice tutorial.

you are the god in after effects

Love this tutorial Andrew!! You go big guy!

Thanks for this great tutorial. One of my favourite parts of the Optical Flares showreel is the part with the soda can and the two colored lights with the smoke trail. I hope there will be tutorials of those too.

I’m very glad I bought Optical Flares with the pro presets and I would recommend everyone that reads this to do the same because there are so many ways to use it which makes it a must-have.

The smoke you’re using in Particular from a picture and turn it into particals… I was wondering if you could use a transparent movieclip or 3D object of let’s say a butterfly, and have particular make it look like a random group of them flying around.

Excellent as usual. I bought optical flares for a project recently and it really is great especially when combined with effects like in this tutorial.

Thanks – Trev

nice tutorial,

by the way it’s a nice way you used Optical Flares in that cinama-commercial:

Thank you for this tutorial. Greetings from Peru!

Hi Andrew

Thanks for the ultrafast delivery to France. After just 6 Days I had received my own optical flares plugin. Optical Flares and Action Essentials bundle

Now after playing and trying a little bit around,I just can recommend to everybody to buy it.It is every single Dollar worth. It produces fast and amazing results.

It was nice that you added a “How to install this plugin” as a Tutorial DVD-lesson. It made the installation very easy.(I am normally a Noob in this things)

Have a nice Weekend
Kind Regards
Robert Herrmann
