freddie stuff is amazing and original

Amazing video. Really impressive to see how such a great video was pretty much all made in one room with a green screen. Thanks for the link AK!

the “hilarious video” link is wrong .

Hello? I do not know but I think that you are the geniuses of this planet, but not you I’m learning a lot of things. May God Bless You

The top vid is really cool and also inspirational.

Thanks for posting AK!

Freddie’s awesome, like you but with a little more action… You both rule!

don’t know what i was thinking but i meant ‘inspiring’ ofcourse instead of ‘inspirational’ -_-’

Freddie puts me on the floor!!!
So does Kramer…..

…..dang…Sam’s the only one I can take serioously!

yea.. you messed up with the hilarious video link..
thanks for posting!

Wooow man thx for show me all this stuff It is usfull and helpfull ^^

as always Andrew! thanks for posting these videos.

WOW this very different(in good way) from what i am use to. Thanks very informative.

Coolness! thx for sharing!

Hey guys just found the full Super Nova video on YouTube, here is the link:

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PiHOonldMPU
Nice Work!!

there are more talented guys than freddie, and are the guys from corridor digital

Simply amazing work on that music video. And freddiew never ceases to amaze.

Do they mention anywhere for Super Nova what they did to make him levitate…like in terms of gear did they just lift him up? and on what? I get how it works in post with stitching together two clips (Top and bottom of him)

Thanks for the vids Andrew – we just became FB friends today too ha ha Well hope it’s the real you

freddie rocks!!!!!!

“…the guys from corridor digital…”, wow!

Andrew and Freddie’s stuff has a sense of humor. A really GOOD one too.

Corridor Digital is nice fx work, but it’s just mean spirited.

Hey AK! I have a tutorial suggestion for you. Everyone LOVES your plug-ins (myself included), and we all would love to make our own. Sadly, the SDK community is very closed (the only article I could find for plug-in developing was on macworld and was written in 1999). I would like you to show us how to make our own plug-ins, and maybe even how to do some other stuff with them (add expressions to object values, create a custom about thing like in SureTarget and Optical Flares. This might help a lot of people get started making plug-ins (I’m sure some people have amazing ideas).
Thanks,
Matthew

i really love freddie’s videos because they’re pretty creative and inspirational at the sametime

We’re all waiting for the collaborative: Sam Loya vs. Freddie Wong Tutorial.

I think some of it is repetitive , but I know Marty really pulled his hair out getting this done, I admire his perseverance and hard work a little more than his AE talent since he used many plug=ins to get the final result, but either way it looks good and as they say in editing… “Done,is Done”

Decent work but nothing amazing but each to their own

@ Rick Joaquim,
They did a two shot camera edit, i.e. they shot his lower half
while being lifted off the ground from his waist up showing his feet off the ground, then shot his upper half while being lifted from his feet or legs, then is post combined the 2 video shots.

Thanks for sharing this. I saw this Freddie’s video some time ago, but the SuperNova was something new =]

after 4 year in university and i didn’t find job in bio chimistry , i think that i switch to videography.
thank you andrew. you are the best teacher i ever had.

Sup man, B_E_A-utiful! Thank you.

thank you andrew………..

Marty Martin from On the Lot! i guess….

Man those guys were all so talented!

The guy who jumps is awesome XD I’m laughing to death LOL

Thank you, I dindn´t know about the first video.

I think that he learn this from your product “the Bullet”

woooww… this is really cool… as usual freddie always action…

Great Videos,

by the way, Freddie’s technique is perfect for cloning yourself and letting the camera move around in the scene.
Here is what I did three years ago:

I love that video for supernova. It’s a great demo for optical flares.
A friend linked me this yesterday, there’s some incredible comping here:

Thanks Andrew!

Freddie’s videos just aren’t as good without Sam.

video copilot is the front runner!
take a look:
http://siteanalytics.compete.com/videocopilot.net+redgiantsoftware.com+allbetsareoff.com/

I see that in the Super Nova video the guy is split into two halves, top and bottom when levitating. Is that because the ‘talent’ didn’t want to be on a wire a few inches off the ground so they got in a stunt lower-half double?

Great Gob look @ my Music Video with the Demon Face from andrew . my next Music Video is comming in 4 weeks

Her the youtueb Link i wish you like this :

Hi,my name si Iskren Ivanov,and about the first video…
I and some friends are in a Community called Profesional Gaming Industry ( All about electronic sports and video making (or we call it Movie Making),I and my Media are those people who make movies (or videos if u like) that point the true face of the Gaming Industry,we Use Alot of those programs and almost the same effects,but now i see that we aren`t even Close to those effects and how they are made,i realy like this website becouse we can see what and how the AE program works and i see it can do amazing things :X

good marty martin,diew 2

It’s because of videos like these that I want to go video-editing as a full time job!
Visit me! http://hadselvgs.com/martin

I love these videos (not as much as Video Copilot but I love them) thanks for sharing Andrew.

hell yeah marty martin is doing some truly awesome work, i love it how hes used riot gear ink drops to help create the supernova effect, pretty sure he used ae shatter for the chunks too

its great to see people using new and diverse ways of working with vcp products rather than taking things at face value or how andrew demonstrates with them, after all thats what he keeps encouraging us to do

and @JosB no that wasn’t the case at all, the artist had an injured shoulder and wasn’t able to hold himself up for long

The video by Marty Martin has really got me incredibly inspired. I’m wondering how much Andrew Kramer help he got!

Hi,What’s Up?Mehran Aghramazani Here And Welcome to…

Thanks Andrew for all your work.

Some nice stuff!

lol the guy jumping!!

very cool…love the first one…great coloring LOVE IT!!!!!

great video. I did my own all green screen music video with after effects, particular and form. ( also my first time using AE heavily) please check it out

http://www.vimeo.com/9953123

Leave a comment asking for a behind the scenes/ making of video if interested.

THank You,
Director Joseph Rivera
If there enough enough for a behind the scene video i will put one together and post one up

Hey AK, I just watched the supernova video again after sending the link to a friend and on one shot, the wide shot where the guy looks up at the flare (the shot in the optical flares promo) it says background tracking. I was wondering how they did that? Doesn’t look like much to track motion off of, so did they just use some cross sections from the power stands(?) or some other method? if so what’s another way to track motion other than AE tracker controls?

good advice from freddie on how to approach a tutorial mentally

supernova looks great

Awesome and your Optical Flare is a really very gr8 n very much useful

Great work! Also does anyone know some new info on the quick matte plug-in?

Ha! I love Fred’s videos!!! And thank you for all your tutorials – they’re brilliant! OK, I’ll stop with the sucky comments and extreme exclamation marks!!!!!

That’s something worth watching over & over again.. So cool. Thanks AK…

Andrew, you could do a tutorial on music video effects, cool tips etc…I am sure that lots of people will find it useful, I do…

The top video was awesome. I love seeing the before and after.

The second video made me feel epileptic…but it was still cool

Incredible! I have just seen a video on youtube that uses the flares. Very cool.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZzmMqc0MiW8

Hey guys check out this cool effects breakdown on how to fake the moon landing. Amazing!

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Aj3z9-dcMxU

Very Good stuff Andrew!! Freddie makes a very valid and important point about tutorials as well! His footage looks like Modern Warfare 2. And the SuperNova video is also sick!

I’m working on a music video right now, and not too knowledgeable of particular, but trying to create a glowing fire ember effect similar to the into title of Pirates of the Caribbean.

Hey Andrew – you should recreate a segment of the supernova video for us newbies. It’s amazing how we put these artists on pedestals and it all comes down to green screen

Hey Andrew, have you seen Selena Gomez’s year without rain? It looks kinda familiar HeHe: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=P1Vf5_d7nOI&feature=sub

speaking of OP
saw the wall light in Enrique Iglesias – Like it
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5hiOYRVdjHQ

that is just weird, why post a link to that, honestly

Did not now about crazy Freddie. Great reference stuff, sir, thanks as usual!

coooooooooooooooooooooool

Hey Matthew,

I think the bigger question is why are you watching Selena Gomez music videos. Anyway, the rain effects didn’t like anything like the ones in Andrew’s tutorial. Usually when you have bigger budgets like that they can just use real rain instead of CG rain.

Hey Andrew thanks for the link to supernova, i was wondering where it was
Also, if anyone who reads this has spare time, check out my website.

it’s was pretty obvious how they did the FPS video not that impressive , the music vid was cool tho

The frist vedio is perfect ,but It’s has nothing wrong.

Yeah WHY are u watching Selena Gomez?
for the music..i don’t think so

Anyway, i luv to watch OP in action. My fav from Adrew
By the way at the most of the music vids they are using OP to make it look better! Thanks to Andrew

supernova short(keying, levels, curves and it would be like the original)

The Last Push?what’s that?

I’m really intriqued by the SuperNova Comparasion video! I did wonder at times how they did the floating effect! I’ve been a big fan of Video CoPilot and have been buying there producs and supporting them for a while!! Go Team Video CoPilot!!! Check out my video using “The Bullet” effect at the end! And for all you first time Video CoPiloters Check out their products tab! Support!

I love watching things like these, I love to see the creative process up close. Makes me appreciate it so much more, Andrew Kramer … I thank you (~:;

amazing work really i enjoyed………

I hope in next tutorial u can teah us how to use cinema 4D with After Effects. Thanks Mr.Andrew for your great tutorial.
From Malaysia.

you must be upset that this guy is better than you right ?

Hey guys at 00:32 there is the twitch effect, im wondering how you would do that in after effects.. For the supernova video. Some Great work by the way

Check this out, must see !

hey andrew,
supernova breakdown is sweet. heres a video I did with twitch and was also my first after effects video.

http://www.vimeo.com/9953123

this made me want to make my own before and after video HAHA

coool! visit my site!

Andrew + Freddy = loads of inspiration to get crazy with AE

Andrew… have you checked out the HDR video…?

http://www.engadget.com/2010/09/09/hdr-video-accomplished-using-dual-5d-mark-iis-is-exactly-what-i/

I’ve been looking for that video all over the web but unfortunately i couldn’t foung .. but it seems pretty awesome

The funniest thing was that on the supernova video the guy did ALL of that video effects but the one thing he got wrong was the position of the Before and After.

Thank you so much for these tutorials, I knew nothing about After Effects and now my friends / work mates and I are now looking something new that even our college teachers didnt even know about.

Please check the examples of what we’ve done, from 3D experimenting to After Effects scripting videos. Please send us your comments

This is totally awesome

I wonder how much this type of work (like the Supernova music video) it’s worth, the work is unbelievable. It’s really an awesome job. ¿It is worth studying this for a career?

Andrew Kramer is everywhere in the Supernova Video )

Excellent break downs thanks for sharing.
