OK, sorry if this has been, mentioned, but I didn't see anything in the comments. At time 5:05 there are four layers and layer (1) is Particle Waves, then suddenly at time 5:07 there are five layers with layers (1) and (2) both being Particle Waves, but I didn't see how or hear that the layer had been duplicated or created. Did I miss something?
Can you tel me how to retreive the images?

Got to love your sense of humour in the tutorials haha!

At the end they did one exact same thing like this :p
Greetings from Germany.
I've seen the same thing Tim W. has seen, websites and production companies copying what they've seen here in Kramer's tutorials and just changing one thing (like the color).
If you can tell an effect is from an Andrew Kramer tutorial, then it's more likely that he didn't have anything to do with it.
Not as good as the others since this is the 1st I've seen where you leave out a few steps that can be quite annoying in figuring out later for the viewer. For one you duplicate the light comp with no mention of that. You do the same later to another. I caught it early but not mentioning steps leads to confusing people. It also makes a great tutorial, good. Anywho, thanks. It gave me some ideas for an intro before my scuba videos, since it has a cool underwater look.
So, thank you for posting this tutorial.
can you do a video on how to load the files on a Mac please. and how to get them into effects please thank you.
Thank you very much
Thank you very much
(sorry for my english i am french)
This tutorial rocks, it was absolutely priceless for creating ym own film logo. Thanks Mr. Kramer...you are a saint. Seriously.
Thank you very much
mais comment je peut avoir les plu-gins
Merci!
But my problem is, when I want to open that project,
there comes an error, which says that I have to install the effects "CC particle world", "CC radial blur" and "starglow"
Sorry for some mistakes I am german.
I have Adobe after Effects C5!!
Mine looks pretty crappy but i've only been using after effects for 3 days...
Your tuts are great, thanks :)
Did you do the title treatment for Merlin on SyFy. The titles are 100% exactly like this tut.
learned much form it
but I have a small qeustion!
if you could or want, could you make an other tutorial with this text bursting into sand and blow to the side of the wall with the wind,
i already made the particals flown with the wind but the dust / break apart just keeps failing on me ;(
it would help me with a great intro cause you can make a hole (tekst) story like this sort a speak.
well anyways great tutorial you make young starters much more motivated!
were you found the astro text??? and where do you foud those footage the one that its orange an the one its gray?
You are charming!!!!!!!!
One more try:
c = Math.sqrt((a*a) (b*b));
or better
c = Math.sqrt((a*a) [PLUS_SIGN_HERE] (b*b));
Cheers!

[TO THE COMMENTS MODERATOR: Publish only the firs comment of these three with the plus sign in the right place]
:))))
It seems I missed the plus sign too...
OK, here it is>
c = Math.sqrt((a*a) (b*b));
And by the way, the anchor point of the text layer should be, horiyontally, in the middle of the textline (or at the middle of the lines, in case of multiline text) for better looking, as long as the script refers to the position of the text layer
Cheers... again!

Well, as far as I can see, what you wrote is similar to what i did in the example here http://vimeo.com/13575169.
First, you get the error message because AE dousn't identify a numeric value; possible division by zero indicates that the problem is in case of a division, and the only division you have in the code is this:
m = Math.asin(b/c);
thus, the error can appear if c is not a numeric value (or probably zero, but and this can happen in only one
particular case: when the coordinates of the center of the radial blur, are IDENTICAL with the coordinates of the position of the text).
But, looking at the code you wrote, if what you wrote here is exactly the code you wrote in AE, that's "bad"... :)
And this is the line I consider here:
c = Math.sqrt((a*b) (b*b));
First, you missed a plus sign and then you replaced an "a" with a "b". the correct line is:
c = Math.sqrt((a*a) (b*b));
If you had the plus sign, you wouldn't get any error, but it wouldn't have looked ok (the link would't have been correct, because the value of "c" would have been wrong).
The formula is simple as long as you know that the sum of the squared values of "a" and "b" is equal with the squared "c". (Pythagoras). Therefore, the formula is as shown above...
Cheers...!

PS Hope that Andrew approves this comment in time for you...
I got it to work for like a split second and I'm not sure what happened, it just stopped.
Any suggestions?
code to link shadows and light:
cx = thisComp.layer("text-shadow").effect("cc Radial Blur")("Center")[0];
cy = thisComp.layer("text-shadow").effect("cc Radial Blur")("Center")[1];
tx = transform.position[0];
ty = transform.position[1];
a = cx - tx;
b = ty - cy;
c = Math.sqrt((a*b) (b*b));
m = Math.asin(b/c);
dg = radians_to_degrees(m);
if(cx<tx)
{
n = 180 - dg;
n;
}
