Absolutely brilliant stuff!

11/02/2012

Great Job! Hands Down!!

11/02/2012

"...and if they don't, we'll just have to punch their mouth loose" Hahaha! You're great Andrew. Love your tutorials :D

09/19/2012

Wow, thanks for this amazing tutorial!

@Yo-Jimbo808: I´m also using CS6 on PC and just worked the tut through, no problems so far.

09/17/2012

thanks Andrew Kramer for such great tutorials more especailly for us a university students, my the Good God shine His face upon you. Remember that He always loves you.

09/06/2012

hi! i love the tutorial.. so thankful for you sharing your genius!

i am stuck on one little thing though. wondered if anyone could help?
im using CS6 on PC so i dont know if its different but during the motion tracking and digital camera man part when i type into expression position it doesnt seem to actually change anything on screen no matter what values i type. i am definitely copying andrew exactly.

any ideas??

07/23/2012

That was an awesome tutorial! Thanks

07/03/2012

Andrew Kramer is the Father Of After Effects

07/06/2012

yes friend......andrew is the father of ae

06/26/2012

This tutorial is amazing, along with most of the others on this website. It has taught me so much in just a couple of weeks! Adapted this tut to a section of a project I'm currently working on - a little different to its intended end product - but I think it works. Check it out:- http://youtu.be/-lnLKqZW_n4

06/21/2012

wooow. respect!!!

06/14/2012

Just starting out with AE here. Thank you so much for these amazing tutorials. They are extremely helpful.

06/13/2012

"punch their mouth loose"? lol.

06/12/2012

Wow nice!

1. no long jokes.
2. organized steps.
3. lots of useful tips.
4. final result looked a lot like the preview.

We didn't get to kill Sam but except for that one of the best tuts in the whole series.

05/14/2012

Awesome I love your tutorial
I wish i will become like you lol
Your tutorials really helped me !!!

02/01/2012

Great presentation and organization. Now get rid of the annoying, "So...so...so," "Basically," and "Actually," and you'll sound just like an adult! And yes, sounding mature helps when trying to market a commercial product. Even to college grads.

07/31/2012

Youre an idiot jeff. Best tutorial ive ever used

06/07/2012

Andrew Kramer has the rare gift of making it feel like he's teaching you rather than telling you. Its as if he's joking around in the room with you and he's really funny. I know he's not in the room with me, I know that, but...I just wish....

04/24/2012

Obviously Jeff Morrow has never been on a tutorial website where learning a software program is not only practical, the presenter is actually funny (you have no idea how rare this is) not to mention the tutorials are some of the best available on the internet. And they're free.

Jeff, go have a look on IMDB for Andrew Kramer. Fringe, Star Trek, Super 8... Andrew Kramer can say whatever the hell he wants with the skills he's got. Jeff, did I mention that these tutorials are free?

So... Basically... What I'm trying to say is...'Long live Andrew Kramer'!

04/14/2012

haha - oh my god Jeff, you are the biggest douche ever. You do know what site you're on right? Do you have any idea the success that is "Video Copilot"? I'm sure he's overly concerned about impressing some dick head college grad with an inferiority complex :p p.s. can you please direct me to your commercial product that you sell? and all your high quality video tutorials? (yeah, I thought so)

04/10/2012

Dear Mr Morrow, you are a bellend. That is all.

03/27/2012

The main theme of this site is the Andrews travel to maturity. We all keep our fingers crossed. Especially Jeff Morrow for he knows the bitter taste of failure. That's why he wants to genereously share his experience and advice. We all thank you - combined with our best wishes in dealing with your inferiority complex as a tiny staggering and unheard particle within our vast community of interests.

03/23/2012

jeff morrow = douche.

02/22/2012

You are very mature.

02/15/2012

Pretty Sure since he's built a visual effects empire he's not lacking in the area of marketing. Besides that he makes these tut's on his own time and becaause he cares about the VFX community. This isnt an oration class..

02/04/2012

He's just offering a tutorial. He's not there to be judged on how he talks. I don't have a problem with it. I don't think anyone else watching does either. I think you're the one who has a problem. Go to a doctor and get your head checked out.

02/01/2012

THANK YOU MR ANDREW TO THOSE TUTORIALS
I AM HOUSSINE FROM MOROCCO

01/03/2012

You...deserve a knighthood. 'Sir Andrew Kramer'... has kind of a nice ring to it, I think.

12/21/2011

Andrew, you are an inspiration! ;]

11/30/2011

pretty slick. every time i thought you where done you threw something else in there to make it a bit nicer.

11/10/2011

Wow~~~amazing!!!!!!!!!

10/15/2011

Wow, great stuff but at the same time you fly really fast. Are all the source DVDs this fast too? You skip right over the fact that you select off of Layer:Volcano, and select to Composite Volcano 2. That screwed me up the first time I tried this, if you miss that step and stay on Layer you basically do nothing.
Then later when you're talking about Mask Expansion around 4:02, and Motion Feather. You don't mention that you have to click the M button twice quickly to bring down all four Mask paths. If you don't and just click the M button once, only 1 selection will show "Mask Path" but the other 3 will not. I'm on a Mac so that might be why. This is the second attempt at this and I'm having to watch the screen like a hawk at every single click or any change of the screen. It's working so far on the second try :)

01/23/2012

dude that's basic stuff you should know before watching this tutorial lollol

11/16/2011

dude part of after effects is learning for your self!

10/14/2011

I don't mean to sound rude, but not one thing you're teaching here is having any sort of effect on my program. Nothing. It would be nice if you would do one more of these, maybe covering it a different way will help.

AE CS4 9.0.3.8

10/14/2011

My mask expansion has 2 coordiniates, the one in this video only has 1 coordinate. And when I take mine to -4 it shows no effect on the sides (when I try on either one of the 2 coordinates).

01/16/2012

Matt, I had the same problem. This video had no effect on my program. So frustrating. Try this, it worked for me: cover your computer in thick insulation and make sure to block off all of the airflow to the fans inside. Computers don't work right when they are too cool in temperature. The more heat the better. Heat it up and soon your computer will be cooking away so fast you won't believe it.

10/14/2011

Took forever to find this. I kept typing in Animating Still Photo, and the results would show nothing. I typed in Volcano and it pulled up this video. Not sure why it wouldn't have been pulled up with the words I typed in since all the words were there except Photo.

08/29/2011

I think the name of the volcano is Eyjafjallajökull because he didnt wanna embarasse himself like so many other ppl have by trying to pronounce the name :D

08/18/2011

Very nice, do get payed for this? Would you like to? I was wondering you could get payed $100,000 every effect..

08/04/2011

Question: Can i use someone's still aerial photo, and impose an explosion, with the billowing smoke using action essentials, so that i dont have to rent a helicopter, get permits to fly over a town, and all that expensive stuff...?

08/03/2011

Hey Andrew! I finally got around to doing this tutorial. It's absolutely amazing! I can't believe how many ingenious ideas you've managed to cram into one lesson. Thanks so much!

Any CS5.5 tutorials!?!??!?!?!

07/12/2011

I found the volcano by searching "Volcano Ash" in google images.

06/29/2011

whats the vulcano's name? we need it!!

06/27/2011

This is one of my favorites, Andrew!

Also great job on the Super 8 titles and trailers - one of the best movies of all time, glad you could be a part of it.

05/30/2011

Nicely done and nicely explained. Apart from the expressions, the steps can be followed, though the brain is often quite close to falling over. Useful.

05/24/2011

Thanks to this tutorial and tutorial 46, Virtual 3D Photos, and the techniques inside them, I made a video with one of the professional pictures I took at someones engagement shoot, and it's seriously looking way awesome.
Maybe I could charge customers for a slide show looking like an actual video... I don't know, but once again, thanks Andrew!

WOW!!!
It's very Incredible!!!
It's very good!!!
Fantastick!

11/24/2010

Great tips in this tutorial!
For me it was probably the most useful one in terms of general compositing techniques.

I just recorded about 2 minutes of "white points on black door" which provided me with probably all the real handheld tracking data I will ever need. :D

11/13/2010

Thank you Andrew Kramer and videocopilot! The idea of using real tracked camera movement is brilliant! I used it in my reel

http://vimeo.com/16297204

Like almost everyone on here, you pretty much taught me After Effects - I think everything I've done in After Effects uses at least one technique from you.

10/27/2010

YOU ARE THE BEST

08/17/2010

I really love Andrew Kramer.

08/17/2010

Brilliant! I love seeing how creatively the stock effects and tools in AE can be applied, and this is exactly the sort of project I was looking for. Thanks SO much for your terrific work - and say hello to Michelle Yamazaki for me if you see her soon (you guys are doing a book together, aren't you?) I think I met you at NAB PPW 2010 with her - anyway, rock on, my brother, and thanks again!

08/17/2010

Hey Andrew,

I was following your tutorial exactly until you got to the CC Particle World part, and when you applied it to the solid your particle was much bigger and different than mine. Mine was set on explosion, but it was very small and was not falling towards the ground like yours. Any help would be appreciated. You are awesome, and thanks for the tutorials.

08/15/2010

wow, this is amazing.

08/12/2010

Absolutely amazing tutorial. Still image intro realistic, cool video.

I didnt have an image like that but had a few of my back garden which i turned into a panoramic in photoshop then made this: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0W5h9ceK-p4
