In the state of Georgia a firearm amd marriage license are purchased in the same place but different from all the other licenses… random side note.

And I only have a 20-gauge shotgun…oh well, guess I’ll have to scale it down a bit… :0)

Really nice! Thanks and HAPPY ANNIVERSARY!!!

Phil L.

Wow this clip came at a perfect time for a project I am working one, Thanks Andrew!

Well a VERY happy anniversary to you Andrew!!! Thanks for the freebie today. And, many thanks for the tuts!

As i said to my wife ….This four years had been like four minutes…..under the water

Whoa! Amazing! thanks!

Happy anniversary, Andrew! And thanks for the clip.

Congratulations!

As we know that shotgun shells are more related to quick divorces that anniversary’s. But in case on Mr. Kramer it’s different. Happy Anniversary and thank you for keeping us all trigger happy for all the new goodies coming from you.

PS. She will prefer flowers

Jarmo Pohjaniemi

Am glad 2 hear that ur shipment policy is now worldwide,i believe that include Nigeria

I am just want to be the next writer. I am!)) Good work

Nice!
Andrew: please help.
How, in AE, would you create a VFX where a hand goes through a glass window, then comes out, and the glass window closes on itself, no glass is shattered, no injury on hand. Like a finger going thru a bubble?
Thanks

Happy Anniversary Andrew!
I noticed something, Winchester shell-cases doesn’t rotate, they’re ejected straight when you open the gun if i remember well. But probably i’m wrong.

For Asbir:
Simply create the glass in After Effects, when the hand passes the window create a mask around the hand and set it to subtract, when the hand is outside the window simply animate the Mask Expansion ultil the window is “healted”.

happy anniversary!!!!!!!!!!!!!

4 years with ONE woman ?? Man, You R awesome!! Regards from Poland:)

Hey Andrew! Congrats on your anniversary! Mine was yesterday that’s kinda cool. Anyways thanks so much for all you do!

Strange, was just wondering to myself why there wasn’t a shotgun shell in Action Essentials 2, now we have one. High-five!

congratulations for the 4-year anniversary, and I guess around the 20 year mark you will be giving away actual shotguns.

Keep up the good work!

Very Cool = ). But there is a defect, the cartridge is used and no caps.
