Thank you

great man. thnx for this

Greaattttt andrew thaaaannnxxx alootttt !!!

Looks great! Many thanks!

Sweet !!!

Thanks !!!

Keep up the Awesome Work !!!

Wowww. This is very exiting. But we want the baby ( ELEMENT ) thanks

I use layer styles like crazy in photoshop, but whenever I’m in after effects, I cringe at using them because the interface is slightly different. I’m a wad.

sweet deal! i’m surprised you didn’t precomp the text to make them procedural for logos and such. But that’s no big deal, they all look good!

thanks!

WOW… a freebie… but more importantly…. Andrew is still alive! wheeew! I was worried there for a few weeks.

Thank goodness your alive. I thought something had happened to you

Thank goodness You’re still alive. I thought something had happened to you.

Oh maaan… your alive!! Thanks GOD

Many Thanks MAN….

How did you do those amazing shadow? The zoom blur effect has that annoying quirk of going upwards as well as downwards. (I have CS4, otherwise I’d check it out myself)

Thanks! I love it every time you update this blog!

Thank you Andrew, I’m sure this will come in handy!

Long time Man……Where are u?

You had a great free project file awhile back with similar layer styles where you linked the shadow and emboss direction to the camera position with expressions so you could move around and it would look 3D, as long as you didn’t rotate. Would make for a great expressions tutorial.

1993! Cheeky. I’m only on CS4. Call me Armish boy…

Nothing serious, For now, every people is dead, cause Andrew has posted a tut since one month, and he doesn’t know that everypeople is visiting the site everyday to know whats going on, for me everytime i visit the site and i see nothing new, i feel bad, and andrew work on 3ds max and integrate to after effect to do realistic thing for now, he use only AE, after 3d ledge, 3d crater, 3d falling glass, all the 3d tuts is the best for me, so plz Andrew, i know u re the best , u re the god of tuts bout Ae and 3d max, so Do more tuts in 3d max, and fume fx is also god, so i will never forget the tuts i ask u and the demon cam, When the enchantress is disintegrate like the pixel of rock, if anyone like the comment, plz! lets con-vain Andrew to do it for us

Awesome!!! Can’t wait for the Jet tutorial! Or for element…

ooooook..thanks for make me fell really ooold…..hi to all of us who can´t buy a 64 bits pc…and still works in cs4…thanks for the tutorial ..always the best

I remember when this website was used a place to go everyday for amazing tutorials, tips, and tricks. Now when we visit the site we get updates every 20-30 days.

Where is the old Andrew who cared about teaching VFX instead of selling it?

Focus more on teaching then selling….after all that is what got your website so popular in the first place.

Andrew

Could you make the tutorial download available.

Thanks.

George

Only for CS5?

Im a CS3 LOVER!

Thanks anyway for all the things you share with us!

This is a great ideal for a typography video, I been thinking about doing.. Thank you

Finally, we heard from you.. Wellcome.. And Thanks..

Hey Andrew,your voice is a little bit diffirent in this video ^^

very nice sir, and that too after so long

As always if one hasn’t looked into things you have the idea and open up the possibilities. Thanks for your unique way of investigating the tools and the time you invest in all of this, as well as sharing this with us. Keep up the good work

Thanks! Looking good! Love all your tutorials. CS5 was nice to see finally!

Be wary of using layer effects in a 3d comp.

They can really mess it up.

They effect light shadows and all sorts.

I stopped using them due to erratic effects

Using this template I must put credits in my project like: “@Project file by_ANDREW KRAMER_from: VIDEOCOPILOT.net” etc..?

Awesome! Have been waiting for something like this!! Thanks!!!

hey!!!
what’s up???
where are u???
are u ok?????

Thanks you Andrew Project file looks sweet, much appreciated man you rock dude.

Thanks! It is great to have this stuff!

Sometimes I wander… if you only make this stuff to keep the peace… so ppl will not get made at you for not posting something lol

you don’t mean me, do you ? thanx andrew
sadly, I have CS4

Thnx man you’re super! I love this!

Oh damn. I love these!!! Thanks

Thanks Andrew! Finally, a GFX-based tutorial again…I was getting a bit tired of things blowing up or warping back to the middle ages. Keep ‘em coming!

When I download the project files, I seem to be missing preset #15. I believe it was called “Sunny 2″. Would really like to have that one.

Thank God(andrew) I have CS5!
Great job, Andrew!

Project “Motion Razor Green Energie” is in affect.
Standby for world domination.

All Hail Leader Andrew!

Awesome! Thanks for the project file. You guys are such geniuses!

Brilliant stuff. Quick to render and some of them even look like real 3D and Global Illuminiation. Who needs a 3D app if you got those presets

I like your style man!!! Thanks a lot, my favorit project is the 15. LOL

Another great project file! Keep up the good work.
Whats happening with the element thingy…???

Recently I realized that if I want to sketch some idea as a picture I use AE instead of Photoshop. AE is more comfortable and smarter for me )

Thanks Andrew, the inspiration is you (y)

Wonderful Andrew .. GO ON

Thanks for these! It’s cool to see how you do, and more or less, why you do it.

Thanks!

Now I’m feeling anxious. Which layer style are we on?

“Welcome back, Mr Anderson… we – missed – you”

Hey thanks Andrew!!! I’m a 13 year old vfx artist and I’ve been watching every one of your tutorials since spring over and over again! You’re my inspiration to make movies!!! You are really gifted and I hope to be half as good as you are in visual effects when I get older!Keep up the tutorials!!!

Hey Andrew Where R U , We Miss You Lot

I think Andrew is working hard to get the new plugin out… Is been a long time when he said that it will be out soon… so i recon something went wrong and they are trying to fix or (even better) they are adding greater features…. Cant wait to see!!!

Thank you SiR Andrew Kramer

Great stuff man, are you allowed to give us a hint about the release date of your awesome looking plug-in Element?
and also, are there any new tutorials coming up soon?

Thanks, Andrew! I’d love to see more styles, templates and presets from you in the future. You have a great eye for motion design!

I’m prepared to pay for quality templates. I’d love to have more templates based around each of your product sets.

I bet andrew is just making another masterpiece announcement video for Element 3D. Just perfecting it.

PLZ POST A CS4 PROJECT FILE>>>>
OR
HOW TO CONVERT THIS?

hello everyone and you can tell me what’s the study that I will do to become a director of special effects

Hey Andrew …your Magic Crystal Ball from Demon Cam Short is Featured in Rayfire Show Reel 2012

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ekqsMCrXZsQ&hd=1&t=1m19s

Lol, I upgraded to a 64-Bit OS just so I could use After Effects Cs5 and this template! I don’t wanna be falling behind now. . . Haha

thanks for wonderful sharing.

When I click on the cube, the XYZ handles don’t appear.
How can I get them to show?

Hey Andrew! This might come out of the blue and this has nothing to do with after effects or anything like that. But I was just wondering are a fan of football and if so what’s your favorite team? ;D

A curious soul from Finland =D

WOW great work.

Saleh from Saudi Arabia.

oh,I am still CS4.

If there is anyone who cares for other people, watch this video , it might change your life.

I agree with Vox March 5th, 2012 @ 9:29 am

Give Andrew a break. A great way of using your time would be to use what you have learned on VCP and create some new and innotive tutorials yourselves. We would really appreciate that.

And remember it is not wise to bite the hand that feeds. Show Andrew and the other VCP guys some respect, or they might get pi**ed off with whinging people that moan and moan and we might not get any more free tutorials. I know that’s what I would do!

Keep up the good work VCP and thank you again for these layer style templates. Totally appreciated as ever.

Wow, again an amazing short tutorial
Thx for all this free stuff

Great looking stuff AK! Thanks a bunch!

I use layer style a lot on my animations.

thanks, I’m 16 and your changing my life for the better here.

Andrew…i use camatsia and i use mic carol UDM-246…and i made channel of camatsia 48 mono….but the sound is low it’s quality is perfect but low.

Dear AK (aka Mr Big Shot),
Please stop doing the stuff you enjoy doing like creating awesome plugins at affordable prices and creating titles and special effects and ios apps for J.J. Abrahms, and start focusing more on spoon feeding me tips and tutorials so I can learn how to do AE without having to try anything on my own. The more you focus on me, the better this site will be.

Sincerely,
Me

Hi there Andrew K. I loved this priject and the tutorial you made with it. but i was trying to animate the stroke width. Like start with one word make the stroke width up and when comes back with a different text (word). Please help me anyone and thank you all again!

Help: Abandoned website!
Legend has it that this was once a thriving and active place where you could find Tutorials for free. A guy named Drew K-man, or something like that was like God and the masses followed and cheered. I may be wrong but so I was told.
So what do we do now? Lets help each other and look for this mythical creature.
Go home and look in your trash cans, Your garden flower beds or under the bed in your bedroom. Suddenly out of the blue there might be a little old man who pops up and says “Hey what’s up? Andrew Kramer here “:-)

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pBIYcJSEGfs
This video is made by Andrew Kramer Indirectly !
Check it Out !

These look great! Thank you so much!

Hey Andrew I had an idea. What if you get someone else to do the tutorial videos and you pop up on cameos or special appearances? That way you have more time for the things you need to do and copilot fans can get regular vids from your site. What you reckon?

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BnY2e3AL_W4

Please chek out ma work
its ma work done in after effects nd 3ds max
nd i proudly say that Andrew Kramer is MA Teacher

hey kramer there’s a fly in your optical flare imgs Light_Headlight.PNG……………………………….

um… the link for the tutorial isn’t working?

Still no update,i’m so upset.

Hello I am Nestor Coronel and
I’m from Ecuador
please prepared
a tutorial about 3D Stereoscopic
Thanks for all the tutorials and all your products
God bless you and to all your family

Andrew kramer, how do these letters appear in 3D, is done in cinema 4d?
I am a big fan of Brazil and his accompany all your tutorials, although this beginner area.

So sad, to see the website being updated less and less. Last update was on March 1st, and the quality of the tutorial was very weak. Looks as if Andrew has bigger things on his plate or he is just trying to get Element together so he can sell sell sell, instead of teach . Andrew, get back to how things used to be, after all that is how you got your fans here in the first place.

Disappointed.

I think the picture above contains a subliminal message for everyone to switch to green energy.
