Wow very, very nice tutorial i really love the sureTarget preset but...i have a problem at the start of the animation, the text jumps, it's a stranger movement, hope you can give me a troubleshot.

Thank you!

by BobHall 06/07/2009
Hey Andrew, dude, your tutorial rock man..

but please... please... fix Sure Target 1.5.1 preset. It may work ok for CS3, but it doesn't work properly for CS4. I'm good at following instructions, in fact, I'm a teacher at many things.. any way, the Sure Target 1.5.1 preset, when running the composition, it jitters at the very beginning.

by Danny 05/30/2009
Hey Andrew,

Where can i download "CC Particle World" and "NewTown" font???

i downloaded the suretarget preset but i cant run it because i dont have those 2 and i cant even use your tutorial because i dont have those 2...

Please can you tell me where i can download newtown and particle world please!!!!!!!!!!
by light 05/21/2009
great stuff!

by Joel 05/15/2009
Seems to be a bug with mac with suretarget. When I choose an layer in "suretarget" effectcontrol the animation presets change to none. So all I get is some jitter or blinking of the text when doing the keyframing.



by mohsine 05/09/2009
thanks man i aprechiate your work,i hope will see some more preset tutorials soon :)
by Silverboby 05/06/2009
I can't move it with my pen behind tool. What could the problem be? I have selected the right layer.

I can move the word but not the anoregy point. Can someone explane that to me?
by IrisVideography 04/28/2009

Andrew, thanks for everything. I´m crazy about After Effects since the first time I watch your tutorials. Greetings from Brasil.

by Nardo 03/14/2009
Hey Andrew,
Love your stuff. I learned more from you then Professors in my college. enough that I dont take classes anymore and just watch your stuff. you keep things entertaining. You dont know how much i appreciate your stuff. I have told plenty of people about this site and your creations. I was wondering, can i use one of your projects to do a on the fly animation for a wedding I m editing. just for the intro, because this tutorial rocks and i like everything u did, just thinking i can replace the wording. I'll also give videocopilot a plug at the end. lemme know!
by hifaith 03/10/2009
Move over Buffett, Gates and Winfrey an AE philanthropist has arrived...truly amazing!

Is that a halo orbiting around your head?

You are a blessing!

Thank You Andrew Kramer

I'm currently in College taking Television and Broadcasting. Once discovering the program After Effects and it's potential it has to design and create amazing effects I wanted to put my time into learning the program inside out. Before I began class that focused only on basic After Effects, I had spent my reading week self-teaching my self from books and forums online. There was a link on a forum to your site, after watching a few tutorials I knew for sure I wanted to master the program. By watching your tutorials and doing trial and error over and over again I can say I'm pretty confident in the program. By spending a week watching your tutorials I had learned more then my 3 month class. I look forward to seeing new tutorials on the website, its something I enjoy watching and it improves my skills at after effects after every tutorial. I hope one day you will be number 1# at online site and products on after effects.

Thanks for all your hard work it has helped me get where I am today, without your tutorials I don't know where I would stand in this industry.

by Lucas 02/02/2009
Andrew, i must say, i came to your site knowing nothing of after effects, you are a true genius, this is BY far the best after effects website you can find.
by Mateus Montenegro 02/02/2009
Hi...

really good BUT I have a spanish After Effects and it keeps giving me an Error (SureTarget) and I have isntalled the Spanish version of the Presets...
I found out what is the error, so anyone else can fix it really easy. Is the word "verificación" (right), which is writen as verificaciÚn (wrong).
Just go in any text editor and search en repalce it for the right one "verificación"... all of them, because the are many...
Now it works fine...
by Kairi 01/31/2009
tnx man ! it's so nice ! i am just beginner so,.. i very like this tutorial and software.

by newt 01/31/2009

by stefan 01/31/2009
Hey gays
i have got a problem withe sure target 1.5.1
when i drag the effect on the null object i get a worning whitsh says that the expression of the z-rotation is deactivatet.
so what schould i do??
thanks
Stefan
by Tino 01/30/2009
Hi Andrew!
BIG THANKS but I think there is an error in the german version.
Only the AutoRotate for the z-axis is added by SureTaget 1.5.1, if I want to auto rotate the other two axis I have to put it manually to the ExpressionField.

Maybe it's my mistake, I'm not sure.
I've done it like you in your tutorial.
