Thank you so much !!!!
Which site did you download the phone model from?
And how long did the 3D portion of the tutorial take to make?
Thanks for all you do.
James
thank you
One question though. IN the phones comp you select the motion blur options for the layers AND for the comp. But I thought that they icon on top for the motion blur in the timeline was supposed to let you preview the motionblur.
That motionblur-icon-button doesn't have anything to do with the final output right?
Im not yet such a smooth AE user, but it'll defenately help me a lot!

Here is the truth about the success of Andrew's video FX tutorials:
Andrew Kramer is not a human, he is a smart Roswell coming from outer space ;)
Brilliant ! Great as usual!
We would like a Jumper Effect video tutorial.
I am sure you can do better than they did on the Jumper Movie!
Thanks Andrew!

One question.
Where do you bought the phone model??
www.cgtrade.net
just one question : what renderer did you use for the 3D animation? The 3ds max software or a 3rd party like mentalray, vray? I use Maya and the mentalray is slow as hell

And for those of you wondering about how to get a 3D model like that into After Effects with a transparent background, the easiest thing to do would be to render the model animation with a solid black background into an AVI or something. Then you could easily import it to AfterEffects and set the mode to 'Add' or use a color key; whichever you prefer.
I was offsetting like 20 layers or so, took me about 30 minutes, just finished, and After Effects crashed on me! Using this great technique, it took me just a couple of minutes to reach the exact same outcome! Amazing stuff!

Very good tutorial
Now for those of you who REALLY want to know the easy, and real way to import models into AE with a transparent background. You render a Targa(.tga), a TIFF sequence (or image sequence of your choice) or even a Quicktime and in all of these make sure you render the "Alpha Channel" with it. Depending on the Quicktime codec your usuing quicktime uses dropdowns that give you "millions of colors +" option, that "+" stores the alpha channel, some alphas are stored in a 32bit render so if you see that option check that. And some simply say store alpha channel. All of which gives you a transparent background right when dropped into AE (as long as when prompted you dont click ignore alpha) without doing any unnecessary keying or blending.
thanks a lot
good stuff man!
