Looks like something that can actually be useful, thanks.

This is awesome Mr. Kramer thank you

Wow… another tutorial, lets see what we have got here, btw i was expecting something more exciting this time… Andrew please come up with some tutorial of incorporating 3ds max with after effects. that would be great. Thanks

Regards!

wow. that’s cool….

Whoa! That’s amazing! =D

Awesome!! Gonna have to trie this one!!

it’s very nice, like something different… thanks

WOoow that helpfull for my christmass tree !

very nice, 1 question though, how do you reduce the banding of that gradient background? tnx.

Wooooww!!!! realy very usefull !! Andrew U rock !!!!… Missing SAM !! LOL

“i know this one guy who didnt like it he used levels ,
now he is dead”

LMFAO!

Did you just watched the Harry Potter tutorial at AEtuts+ ?
The guy the used the same blur technique to create his glow.

Greetings from germany, you are awesome

The first thing that comes to my mind after seeing the pictures is “Hey, the PlayStation Move!”

Gonna watch the tutorial now!

Having seen the sample video now, with “Sonya”, I’m pretty sure where Andrew got the inspiration from

I’m sure, that you’ll get your new TV.

Awesome! Now did Sam die or something?… I recall an Axe Tutorial in the making awhile back(plus haven’t seen Sam for a few hahaha)

Looks Awesome! So can we expect any Cyber Monday discounts today?

wow,cool,thank you

Great colors, thank’s for this another nice and great tutorial.

kramer iz def. d bestest. . . . .thaxxx a billie

thxxxx….nice!!

plzz MORPH Tutorial Andrew!!!

dude I really, really love your humour!!!

Nice work, as usual. Can’t wait for the next tutorial

I have nothing to say….Absolutely great!!! thanks for the new tutorial. But I have some problems with previous one, the MagicTraking…

good stuff
ak & team

Look at this comment, please!
Andrew, please help!!! I’m messing around with MagicTraking tutorial. The technique of planer tracking and using its data for a null object is brilliant! I did the tutorial and everything looks great. Then I thought what if I add a 3D object to the scene just like we did in the Advanced Time Freeze lesson. I made our Futuristic Ball in 3d max and tried to create a camera with Reference point in AE. But it doesn’t work! Is there any way to get data from Corner-Pin_to_Null for a camera? Is it possible? Or am I going the wrong way? Maybe using this particular technique I cannot place any 3d objects?! Thank You anyway!!!

Nice looking video!
Sonya XD

anyway. well done andrew. that was the best tutorial you made funny wise in a year or two. its like your back, you never left, but your back.

Nice ^^…. thanks master!

thanks andrew

looks interesting

I have been here, following the pied piper since about tute 10.. What a STRANGE tutorial Andy; did u sample some of ur kids cold medicine? brill as always and thx, i owe a lot to u, a msg no doubt reciprocated by 1000′s. JK

LOL! Your jokes and hilarious, and your tutorials are also amazing! it’s 2 birds with 1 stone! Laugh and Learn. That should be your slogan!

Big thanks, man.

Not sure if it’s just me, but I THINK I saw product placement somewhere in the middle there

Really nice one.
Just a question…

Shouldn’t the bright be born exactly where the circles are crossing the floor?

Just a detail.

“I knew a guy that used levels… hes dead now.” That made laugh. Another great tutorial.

By the way, what ever happened to the roto brush tutorial?

hey thank andrew for a great tutorial, i have done something similar.

I USED ACTION ESSENTIALS, OPTICAL FLARES AND THIS TUTORIAL

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=toT9FpPT3ZY&hd=1

That was Cool, and it is very useful for Me.
Thank you, Andrew.

WOooO… That’s amazing .. Very useful.
tx Mr. kramer

I support the idea of making some tutorials about after effects and 3ds max. Maybe you can make something about blowing up, exploding, destroying.
I think it will be useful for many people who want learn what cool thing it is possible to do to make some kind of Hollywood like film with impressing FX.

haha this tutorial had me laughing so much

niceee andrew honestly this is a godd work
but whats with the sony subliminal commercial ?
have you started working with sony ?

Andrew,

Thanks. Sure could have used this tut a couple weeks ago. The thing I like about your tutorials is that you make them “real-world” in appearance, which adds to my inspiration. Thanks for all you do.

That’s what I would like , if I were making fun of how I sound like. I didn’t watch the rest of the tutorial but it was worth it.

Beautiful effect. *****/*****

So happy to have Andrew Kramer in my life…at this point, I feel as if he is my brother…or maybe a 2nd cousin…or at least a far removed distant relative!

Great stuff in the tutorial.I just feel how i can make a preset out of this

Awesome tutorial Andrew, although I was expecting a more advanced method for the lighting instead of using blurred layers.

You are the most awsome guy on the earth! Nice tutorial BTW!

That chromatic abberation effect is really nice.

This is really great stuff. I love your tutorials! Keep them coming!

thanks for the tutorial it was really useful.

Sweet Beings This is Awesome! I can’t think of a better source for Kick Ass-ery than Video Copilot.Net.

soz to take up real estate here but i want a blue name too. does this suffice?

“not if u clik it and c u bit ALL my stuff :/” im learning from the best, can’t b whipped 4 that.

Very nice, it is the little tweeks that makes thing extra awesome!

Sweet! Already got some projects I can update with this this week. Thanks man.

your name should be changed to Andrew E. Kramer as in A.E.K. Meaning After Effects King. U r a legend even in countries like Nigeria.

Andrew, why don’t you use your plug in VC Reflect for this one?

I imagine these glow balls flying in as the I’es in my logo! This was actually not the coolest tutorial ever, but definitely one of the more useable ones!

SONY…..A HAHA!

That was great, and im sure they wouldnt mind considering your site traffic is probably getting close to there site traffic wich is crazy LOL

you teach us things i wouldnt even think was possible in after effects so thank you andrew!

and thank you videocopilot.net team!

Look’n good AK! Can’t wait to watch when I get home!!!

Looks suspiciously like my video copilot banner that I submitted a while back lol

Won’t have expected any thing less from AK.
Hey andrew.. When are we getting a cs5 update for the free Videocopilot plugins..
Am tired of switching back & front. i.e cs4 – cs5..
Guy u still rock as ever b4.

Very very cool! And useful!

very cool baby
it seems very nice

That’s amazing!

Ey what’s up mr. Kramer….you are awesome but what’s happen with the tutorials…… i can see In my iPhone…..!!!!Aaaaaaa. I’m sorry. But my English is not gooood. —– Bryan tx—-

Nice Effect Sir……

Did you get the free tv?

Oh my god, where are my Royalties ? I’ve just deposed Sonya© ^^

hey andrew…

i live in iran.you’r after effects leader in my country and 80% of you’r teachings used in IRAN broadcasting.
my idea is : andrew and sam traveled to IRAN and get their much money.

you know how much money to make a Special Effects Movie gave to one korea person ? his works very very very weaker than you . if you see this Movie and specially Special effects , sure hate after effects and select another work.

yeah , 300,000$ dirty money for this Movie.
——————-
andrew we love you’r work and you’r mind .

“Hey, What’s up? Andrew Kramer here” – Was Dying to hear this for weeks!! Finally a new tutorial!! Thanks a lot AK!!!

This is so awesome!

mirandolo

wow! you did better than SONY entertainement logo intro and trapcod lux
professionnal work!! thanks

soo cool work!. Sony => Sonya, What a clever!Lol ;D

so simple…no 3 party stuff…
purely procedural…
yet so enormously magical…..

Hey!Congratulation for your blog update and thanks a lot for your tutorial.
Your online student..:

just want to say thanks for all your time that you put into this site and allow us to see whats going on in your world and seeing what your doing with experiments in after effects and such. super fantabulous man!

anywho.. just wanted to make a suggestion, not super important, but after seeing your last tutorial I was think that you can do so much more with type with the character palette there to give it some interest. Such as changing the spacing from metrics to optical which is based on mathematical increments that determine how the characters should be spaced. I don’t exactly know why I am telling you this other than that I am studying graphic design and notice these types of things all the time.

Nice work, thanks for sharing and I hope you get that new TV.

I guess you cant teach old dogs new tricks… no one has actually replied to a comment yet haha

Hi Andrew, I’m from Brazil and I always watch yours tutorials and based on those tutorials I produced a school project called “Posimusic” in which I had to create a parody of a music.
I’d like to tanks the amazing tutorials.
