AWSME vIDEO DUDE

super tutorial!

So when are you gonna have your own show on Spike TV or Comedy Central? Really though, great stuff. I fwd'd your site to all my efx loving pals.... nothing but praise for the Guru of GUI.....

Peace Brutha.
Russ

Do you have any idea how much money you could make simply demon face-warping home footage of spouses for divorce hearings? "Your honor, I swear she's a demon! Watch this video!"

Dear Andrew, I love all the training stuff u have up here, but i was trying to download the Demon Face Warp tutorials to my laptop but is not available.


Yours

Mark Solomon.

A great quality of tutorial. The visual quality is good, audio quality is clear enough and the instructions given is simple enough as a broken english speaker like me can understand it easily.

Hello everyone great tutorial! For those who have had problems with the uncheckable "leave all attribute" the problem has to do with some translated versions (like italian). Install in english and enjoy!

hey, just asking, I wonder if you have a degree in computer graphics or something. And if not than how did you learn all this??? by yourself?? But still, i really want an answer to my Question!!! thnx

Awesome!!! thanks ! it is so used for my film making project.

hey andrew , how are you ? this tutorial is very awesome and im waiting for your new tutorial , and i have a lot of your product and im very happy

great, awesome ;)

wooooooooooow
i'm your fan

Hello, one question - why you didn't it by "track motion"??? - to make tracking points and assign to null object and then you can assign anything (deformation, skin, glasses, ...) to the null object(?) Is it possible??? I think it is much more easyer, then to make this points by "stabilize motion" and reverse it back... ? Isn't it? I don't speak english wery well, so I am not shure if you speak about this possibility somewhere in your tutorial ... ? Thank you for your reply :)

This will really help me with my zombie effect after I've filmed the film in Summer.

awesome

I tried to make it, I like the result :)

a question to nate dogg - Could you help me with demon face i'm i made slide show video with a lot of pictures with friends and now i need something as i'm director to put in the end, i thought demon face will be great, i tried biy it doesn't work well, so maybe someone can help me? i have recorded my face already. my mail hide4@wp.pl or message me here

Amazing!

I`m from brazil! thanks a lot for all this tutorials! i cant wait to learn more and more!!!

Thats so coollllllll

These tutorials have allowed me to expand my offering as an offline FCP editor for indies, to a full fledged FX editor combined. Andrew, and the videopilot team, you rock! These videos are the BEST training on the web. Keep them coming!

I completely agree with you there Nate Dogg.

Now I gotta admit, after I got After Effects this was the first place I found on the internet for help. Andrew, my man....you are the Video Messiah.
I have taken many of these tuts and they were all very helpful. This one was so much fun for me and some of my friends which I had invited over in order to "demonize" them. I have even called friends which have moved away, and those whom live abroad and had them send me video so I could "demonize" them or whatnot.
Basically, Andy..it's like this: Thank you from all of us. Your sense of humor is on par the first time around, but after watching the same tutorial 3-4 times..it just gets better.
Like the others before me, I am also a man, but still I love you. Keep the tuts comming!
nathan

This is great easy to understand, nice one

You´re my GURU man, yuo ´r the best thing? {r u human?), I am a man but I´m loving you already.

Nice tuts Andrew sir. really loved ur tutorial teaching techniques with some ,laugh making dialouges in between.

Hey Andrew,
This is Awesome. Is there anyway to incorporate CS4 and Mocha with this method?

a hundrd thanks ..and still countin'... u r gr8 kramer...

Thank you! Mr.Kramer! have a nice day ^^

Hey there! Tutorials look great. Trying this one (my first attempt at any). I'm fine until it comes to the liquify part which does not seem to want to track! I have followed the tutorial twice now and cannot see that I am doing anything different to how the tutorial explains? Anyone else have an idea what i may of done wrong?

Thank you

great tutorial one of the things i love about yours is you dont get boring your slighty funny and i can actually understand what your saying im new to after effects so these are really helping me

Thx for the tutorial. It actually helped in my short movie project.
Here it is:
http://vimeo.com/7621492

i LOVE how you randomly get off topic ;)

Hey man you are the one and only.

dude you rock . these are the best tutorials ever. im deff buying the add ons just too support your tutorials cheers

I love the way Andrew explains it without getting borring :) this is my result http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NSdO_hLWKJ4

Hey Andrew, thanks for all these products, amazing stuff man.. check out sum of the techniques I used for my short film titled DAHNRA (Dick and Hank Ninja Ridding Agency)

www.kmfilmz.com

Used the demon effect, head being cut off (ninja style) and many more...

Chris

Im having some trouble with making the adjustment layer to follow the track i have been trying to figure out whats wrong but i rewatched the video and im doing everything right can you help me figure this out and also im working on CS4 not CS3

Thank You,
Dillon Turner

Here's my customized version!

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=X6ow93idvjw

(Pardon the bad acting)

Really cool tutorial. Easy and simple to understand. Keep up the good work.

Thanks!

I have followed the tutorial perfectly and it works!

check out my very disturbing demon face: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xKsM-kM7eWs

Hi I'm trying to get this to work, and I really want it to work, cause i imagine I can use it for a thousand different projects...

My problem is "I think" the object that needs to be tracked. I have an elevator door, where I stand in the elevator and the doors will slide open to the right. I want to put a logo on the door, so it will slide to the right as well.. Also a second thing is I need a mask or something, cause the doors slide into the wall, thereby dissappearing...

I have done all the things the tutorial says, but the trackpoints are getting no good result. No Eyes in my footage or something, so will this even work with a shine elevator door? I have a scratch where I put my trackpoints, but it doesn't stick well... :(

Fantastic Andrew... thank you :)

Here's my Halloween creation...

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RTqkAsHDu5w

You're the best, Andrew! Your tutorials are easy to follow, informative and entertaining at the same time! Thanks for sharing these with us and putting us on the fast track with AE!

here is my result.

this tutorial was a real eyeopener for me.
endless thanks...

Nice job you guys...Halloween around the corner...

you are probably the best I ever came across.

this website is like my church!...thanks you guys...specially andrew


peace

dear sir
this is very very great work
thanks.............. so much

thank you andrew and sam and the whole team of video co pilot and i am very greatfull to all of you

Dear Andrew,

First of all, thanks for being so clear on this topic; this really helps to understand the basics of the Tracking options.
I'm working on something similar as your example with the sunglasses, everything works exactly according to your tutorial.
Except…mine includes scale tracking as well... And...I've tried everything but that part won't work at all.
The problem: My footage stays zoomed in there where it should zoom out again. So instead of counting down from 100%, it adds up from there. Ok, this is how it supposed to be in the PreComp, but not in the final version.
This should be easy to fix I know, but so far no luck. I’ve tried to apply the comment *-1, like you did with the rotation expression, but you've guessed already...no luck there. The comment *100 -1 results in an error, off course...
Can you help me; make me see what I don’t see jet? I don’t think I need to manually fix every frame again to resize it, now do I?

Best regards,
Saskia

Cool tutorials, thanks!
Here is my try
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Kmec2kNSDIk

nice have to learn this

here is what I made using the same technique

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wGeLTz51U9I

Awesome tutorial this stabilizing/destabilizing is amazing! I had a question though. Is there a way to make it work for scaling? I tried adding the "*-1" to the end of the scale pick whip and the whole video was screwed up. Deleting the scale from each was the only way to get the normal results you have. If there is so way around making scale work that would be great. Thanks

I think the "Download Project" button is broken.

Thanks Andrew.

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

i think it came out pretty well =D

Great tutorial.

Here's my outcome:

i dont have words its amazing thanx thanx thanx thanx thanx thanx thanx thanx thanx thanx thanx thanx thanx thanx thanx thanx

Piero said:

"I can't uncheck "leave all attributes" in precompose window even after I check the other option. Help me please, this is the only thing I'm missing to make this work."

Same here, Somebody know what would be the reason, is it a Bug or a Program Feature?

Hey great tutorial, but how do you do it in CS4, I recently got it and things like alt click don't bring up the parenting tools! Or maybe it's cos I have a mac, but could you please update it for CS4?
But all your're other tutorials are just great!

U re totally right, demons look best wearing sunglasses...lol!!!!.

tnx buddy your work is really AWESOME!!!!!!.

OMG thanks so much for your tutorials and products, they are the best!

Best tutorials EVER!!
I have a problem and need your help. I do not have the option for a 'Motion Track' palette :( Does anyone know where I can download this from? I have After Effects 7.0

Cheers guys

hi, amazing tutorial as always i only have one problem and if you could help that would be awsome, basically when I go to window- there is no option for tracking control however in the begining you metioned something about going to workspace motion tracking which i can select yet doesn't do the same thing, so can you please help by telling me another way i can find the tracking controls that would be great because as you say it's a VERY usful technique

Great tutorial sir!
heres my try out
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=t8Cwr-Pb-do

tnks for your tutorials

i´m still learning tnks to u

adrew kramer the best :P

Hey Andrew! Thanks for this very useful tutorial!!!
You are just BRILLIANT!!!

here is what i made>> http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xfup2Sf0RzU THANKS TO YOU!!!!

not the best but hopefully not the worst one...

so thanks for everything!!!

My small brain did not understand that: Why reverse stabilizing? Why not just regular motion tracking, applaying data to null object and parenting the adjustment layer which we applied liquify? Why why why? I know you have an excellent reason.

thanks man....

Thank you very much XD

Good but it make me sad to see that you copied it from me ...

i made it in 2006. :(

Awesome, and a great introduction to what AE can do.

Anrew you are the most generous man on the planet

im using after effects cs4 at home and every time i try to drag a quicktime or any type of video onto a composition or timeline it appears blank and never plays but at uni on cs3 it works fine.
does anyone know how i could fix it
cheers

Hey,you didn't explain the zooming.. At the start of the tutorial camera actually zooms to the guy's face...

It's so cool,thanks very much!

This is awesome.. ><

going to download adobe directly

This is pretty cool, the only problem I'm having is animating the mask, I linked it to PreComp, but When I try to adjust it I get the Mask Path option instead of Mask Shape and it won't let me adjust the points. Does anyone know if there is a setting I need to change or something?

Great great great. Really clever shenanigans with the 'reverse stabilisation' process.

Thanks a million.

Nice job all !
Here is my version :

WoW .. nice demon :D great job !! respect dude !!

its the coolest tootorial ive seen but could you simplify it a bit?

Wow! I can't believe I got it! I learned this tutorial and applied it with my friend. Thanks a lot Mr. Kramer! I really learned a lot from you! God bless!

(este tipo es buenisimo! sus tutoriales son impresionantes! mucho para aprender!)

I'd just stared my after effect courses and i thank my teacher everyday to show me you're link. there's lotta learn here. you made me feel that after effects has tools that never ends. incredible! Thank you Andrew, you're the numb 1!

Hey,problem...everything on mine worked except after u pick whip or whatever it's called all the position, rotation *-1 and anchor point it is not centered on the project and is partially hidden in the top left corner. I followed everything pretty close so any idea of why this happened?

I think this was so cool I just wish he had showed doing the fangs too. Thank you Andrew

Love your stuff Andrew. This is the first tutorial that i watched and it got me hooked on AE. This is a viral i made for Red Nose Day (a charity day) here in England which happened to fall on Friday 13th this year -

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

Hi. on youtube, there is this guy, iggy35-
hes really cool!
i wanna make som videos, like he make them... i want to make a deamen face, but how can i make it!!?

WOW! Thanks! Surprisingly I kinda found this to be easy! Great job, keep it up!

Hey Andrew.. this was a sick tutorial thanks... watch the ending of my video i used this effect

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=F6DAnfoRsgo

Thank you very much! Your video is so cool! And your voice! You don't have any accent! Hooray!!! (on youtube some people are hard to understand)

I can't uncheck "leave all attributes" in precompose window even after I check the other option. Help me please, this is the only thing I'm missing to make this work.

I made a music video for an unsigned band called Shotgun Riot last year and today I remembered that the single effect shot that I did for it was all thanks to Video Copilot and thought I would share it with everyone.

The track is called 'Black Widowed' and we made this music video for £700! My first attempt at both Directing and VFX.

Check it out and let me know what you think.

Damn, I just love your jokes xD

insane tutorial!
ty :)

thanks
from KSA

This is too hard, I think I should just quit. nothing is working for me. :(

Thenk u so mach but u hev a problem - becous this tutorial stop in a middle

Totally awesome the work your are doing in this website Andrew.

i have been trying to make an effect on the video clip by means of AVID COMPOSER at first, but , after several trials, i realized that that tool is not optimal for the professional effect, cause, the effect resolutions or effects were confined as i thought, therefore, i decided to choose more advanced tool called 'AFTER EFFECT CS'. though i am novice now, i want to get advanced more than now with the help of this explanation that you provide me with. thanks.frankly speaking, your explanation is complicated . but it challenged me to get improved more than ever.

that was sick!!!!!!! awesome!!!

thanks man.
this is SUPERCOOL!

Great tutorial. although the damn tutorial video is WAY to large on 1024 screen maybe shrink it down a little way to hard to watch and go to adobe then abck into video and hit paush cause you always gotta scroll down.. pissing me off

how do i get the glasses part going, will just a jpeg of glasses do? (or any other object i wanna add like a cap or hat etc)

dis is so cool

This is great! a nice transformation. can't wait to learn this stuff..good work adrew.

gracias, he aprendido mucho y tambien me sirve para aprender ingles

omg... this is so awesome, i will have a lot of fun with it :D

thx dude!

Andrew,
When I grow up I want to be like you!!!!!!!
Being an Special Effects has being my dream.
Where do I start? do you recommend Mac or PC?

Your work it's very amazing!!

Adonay

Hey Andrew,
Great tutorial! Just wondering where you got the sound effects for Sam when he turns into the demon and "Screams" it sounds pretty realistic!

Amazing work! I really need to use this application.

goooodZ man .... I LIKE THIS TUT i do it with some problems but i do it :)

i hope u have a good live ... and MORE TUT :D



thx

Wow, I'm confused. Once I get past the re-sizing the "PreCompFace" layer, everything goes to hell. I follow all the steps exactly with the Parent Rotation, Position, and Anchor, but then it leaves me with my video up in the left hand corner of the black comp screen. I've done it about 14 times and it never goes past that point, am I missing something? I have AE-CS4. I also shot my footage on a tripod so other than my actor moving, the shot is already stable. Does that screw it all up? Please help.

thank you so much for this effect! we're doing a short horror film with a couple of friends for an independant movies show and my friends said that that is one of the best effects in the movie.
unfortunatly i cannot do much of these videos because of my cpu,so i wanted to ask you a question: what computer do you use to process all of this great tutorials? thank you

/,,/verrryyy gooooddddd*_*...I loved*_*

Here I used your effect tutorial for the French Rock band Cafe Bertrand. Check it out !

http://www.dailymotion.com/video/x5n1h8_cafe-bertrand-amnesie-acoustic_music

Thanks Andrew for all you made for us.

Yo man great tutorial as usual, i made an attempt on my own and this is what i got :D check it out
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kWTTr0ALpcY

wooooow awesome tutorial Andrew , i use this to track a tattoo and believe it or not it works!!!

Thanks a lot!!!

It is cool and great tutorial thanks man

regard.

Thanks! I used this to apply a tracking to a mask and worked great.

Great tutorial. I was wondering if you might be able to make a "hulk" effect with the same principles, or if they're was a different tutorial that might help more? If you could possibly make a video of muscle growth and the like, that would be AMAZING.

Awesome! I am jut learning AE but i really want to be ale to move like you do through your menus and comps. Any advice? Thanks

Hey see my demon face at http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lxhDMXeD4bA
if you send me your face video ill do one for you FREE!!!

good work man

this is awesome tutorial. I can't belive that he made that kind a effect. Please make some energy balls...

I have exactly the same problem like Alex , should I change something in the tracker settings ?

Thanks for the great tutorial .

;-D gerhado

All ARABS LOVES YOU KRAMER.... KEEP GOING MAN
even though you make Head shot that doesn't mean you are a TERRORIST ;)

awesome tutorial!

Andrew Kramer, you're the best! I really like your tutorials. They are a pleasure to watch. I'm only starting with AE, so sometimes I don't have a clue what you're talking about, but you make me wanna learn it the more!
Best regards and thank you!

Everytime i do motion tracking, i mimic the exact way you do it and the motion tracking never works, it always goes of in random directions.... and i never once have gotten a good motion track

I am getting really stressed out with this. Iv'e been trying it for 3 days. When I do the "Pick Whip" thing the video cuts half of my face off. So I engarge the square and bloody makes my face go bigger. Help please? Email

tommo-ps2@hotmail.co.uk

Thanks

How do i open up opacity for adjustment layer? =S

Hey there, what a great great tutorial,really. I´ve seen tutorials from different people and programs for some years now,and these have to be one of the most entertaining, easy to follow and downright cool tutorials i´ve ever seen.

Really, thanks Andrew, from Venezuela.

This is my shot at it. I combined the lessons shown in this tutorial,the eye removal one and (more subtly) the healer one.Hope you like it:

Very awesome tutorial. I used it as a building block for my short horror film "Red" that was clipped on tv during chillertv's Dare2Direct Special on Halloween night. I thanked Andrew in the credits for some of the best After Effects tutorials around.... period!
http://www.vimeo.com/1462217

For some reason even when i do all of the tracking you sowed how to do, the liquify setting does not stay in the same place....this is really bothering me!

Thanks,
Conor

P.S. Your tutorials are awesome!

good job

Hey andrew, awesome tutorial by the way, hey i have a problem, in the beggining after stabilizing the video when i precompose, AE doesnt let me uncheck "leave all atributes", is this relevant, anyhow, the tracing doesnt show up on the precomposed video, thanx, keep up the good tutorials!!!

For some reason the distortion will play throughout the whole clip. How do i just keep it at the Screaming part? Also how do i cut a part of a clip if i don't want it?
Sorry i am a Beginner.
Im 12
Check out my Videos.

I had a bunch of problems with this tutorial, the tracking was always off, there was no rotation in my shot so the data was different, couldn't wip the right values, it gave me a black border and a bunch of stuff

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6EdzPODbr8E

Ok so I get the reverse tracking, and this is an amazing tutorial for sure, But I have a question for you. You Stabilize for rotation and position, well what if you want to track for scale as well. for instance my shot has a charicter begining as a long shot then as the shot progresses he walks past camera hes always square to the camera. under stabilize motion would u track scale as well , if so what would be the expression to reverse the scale? Would you have to pickwip the precomps scale to the comps scale? just curious thx

Andrew you are a legend
I am SO happy that i found your website !
youre the best teacher known to mankind

I love your site and the tutorials and well,
i enjoyed all of your videos and i hope you keep it up

Greets from Germany, Black Forest !

I want to know,I have the 6.5 pro version and have been trying to follow directions explicitly.But I have came across a simple snag(so it seems)..So does this version work just like the 7.0 version? Also,Where is the first half of the tutorial?

Thanks a million! you rock!

this is very great tut! thanks andrew! you the man!

haha I had so much fun, thanks for this great tutorial. Here is mine:

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_GjkRX7hg10

the tracking for the warp and paint tool is good as long as the subject doesn't turn his head left or right, then the mesh will start moving out of place and then manual keying of the mesh percentage and positions will be needed. the same goes for the texture applied to the skin.

oh and i forgot when i stabalize the motion the track points move and dont stick to the place i put them like in your tutorial

OH AND U HAVE THE BEST TUTORIALS ABOUT AFTER EFFECTS!!!!!!!!!

hey andrew when i was tryin to do the demon face for well i lost count. i cant get the the track stabalized do u think u can help me

And thanks again Andrew

Based on this tutorial I did something completely different. Talking rocks. I had all sorts of fun trying to track 2 subjects and I also wanted to track scale which I haven't seen before.

www.youtube.com/havanother1

There's a 30 and a 60. The 60's cut, the 30's a bit disturbing.

And of course, huge thanks to Andrew. You make this stuff less like work, more like fun.

To the staff of the site thanks for the directory only because I have one problem it that I do exactly what you say in the option of || tracker and then I do distortion and it do not go with it together
Thank you

Poland thanks for turotials. Great job :)

so amazing i like this dude

instead of the long process of stabilizing the footage around the eyes, why not motion tracking the eyes and apply it to an adjustment layer?

I did something wrong, no idea what. Here is an ss. If someone has any tips, they are welcome!

Sir Im so very happy about youe tutorial and this the the best tutorial i have been watch...thanks for sharing your talent.

Hi Andrew! Congratulations for your amazing tutorials they are really a great help.

Unofortunately im experiencing some problems regarding the PreCompose window: i follow the steps u do on this tutorial but when it gets to precompose the footage in the precompose window it doesnt deselect "leave all attribute in blankcomp" when i click on "move all the attributes into the new composition" but both of the two options remain selected and there's no way to remove the selection from the first choice anyone has any idea on how to solve this little issue?

Thx

You are to kool!!! You have some awsome ideas, and all the jokes you add to every tutor just makes them so much fun to watch and learn, this one is so kool though, I have made both my kids into demons, LOL, thanks alot.

Great tuto!

Hey moderets i know ur reading this are any of u girls if so i would like to ask u out on a date
xxxxxxx

Andrew, I'm quite impressed by this tutorial and the manner in which you present all of your tutorials. Ahum, I do have a question: I can't seem to lock down the stabilizing (and I have followed the tutorial frame by frame lol), which in turn means everytime I add liqufy or the glasses there is too much movement. I know that you are quite the busy man, but is it possible for you or one of the staff members of Audio co-pilot to explain what it is that I am doing wrong? Any help would be extremely helpful.
In Advance, thank you.

I have adobe after effects 7.0 (don't know if its proffesonal or not), but i don't get the same window that you get. Is it a plug-in?(Your toutorials are the best)

HAHAHAHA I love this one..
So funny the way you play with Sams head and his eyes! hahahahahahaha.. omg iam crying. So funny

Hi,

andrew realy thank you for this tut its great but i have a problem each time i get to the place whre i should put in the liquify it doesnt go with the face but it stays at the place plz help jangross2@seznam.cz

Omg, HEY! andrew i'm sergio from chile, and i have a question im trying to follow your tutorial and as i can see is very cool but i have a problem, when i put width 1700 the height auto-put it-self in 1133 what can i do? PLZZ help me shamank1@hotmail.com my mail again, thanks.

First time using AE and this tutorial was a great way for me to pick up a lot of the techniques, thanks bud.

seriously, this is the best tutorial site i have ever been on. ur personality and presentation makes all the difference. most others dont bother to explain or show alternatives, but u make everything clear and amusing. i hope there will be many more tuts to come.

A quick question for anyone who knows about it - once you've finished and applied a motion track, is it possible to go back and adjust it? Or does it need to be re-tracked (and all the child commands re-parented)?

If anyone knows just leave a comment, as I'm trying to develop my AE skills but I don't have anyone to turn to if I have a question ^^

-Daniel

Awesome tutorial, my first.
Here is my result:

Andrew, how about doing a UFO tutorial, like the classic: looking up to the sky, above a building, hovering then leaving... That would Rock!

Thank you for sharing so much knowledge, JG

Why i cant see the tutorial?

WOW!!! Awesome Tutorial. I never realized After Effects was capable of that type of effect.

I have purchased some of your products and I think they are great.

I was hoping that I could get a Quicktime Version of this Demon Video Tutorial???

It's Great!!!

Is there a way I could get a Quicktime copy of it or other??

Adam Gibson

i have tried this a good 4-5 times but each time the "reverse motion tracking" doesn't work.for the comp settings whenever i type in 1700 for the height it says the width is 1133. please help.

haha this tutorials are the best on the net

check out my version of the demon face warp starring George W Bush!

http://au.youtube.com/watch?v=_LqN15eDGic

I realy LOVE this one i havn't seen any thing like this since ive gotten into AE, Man you realy cool with those FX, Hey have you seen the spawn movie if you havn't then check it out, what if you were to post a tutorial about the FX on the eyes spawn has na Effect in his eye when he's fighting or mad that green kind of shimmer like stuff i don't know what to call it but hey you pulled of some out of the worl FX maybe you can Swipe that out of you bag.

another awesome tutorial

oen thing though, instead of doing all that reverse tracking etc. with the comp, and the contained video file, could you not have just motion tracked the video file and applied it to a null object?

Please get back to me if possible

Thanks!

Check out my Deamon Face, i've added some somke to it with particular..

Thanx for the tut!

Hello! I have the same problem concerning the tracker control! It doesn;t appear in my AE...What should I do please help!!!

Hi!

I think you're really fantastic in doing this!
I had a question..
I'm kinda a Dragonball Z fan.. and I wanted to ask you how to make a proper energy wave or energy ball with Adobe After Effects 7.0

Thanks!

Thank you for the great tutorial
Really helped

Hello! First of all, I love your video tutorials, Mr. Kramer, and your splash of comedy. So after getting Adobe After Effects around December 2007, I decided to watch some of your tutorials. This one was one of the best and funniest, so I decided to make my own video, and I sent it to the school film festival. It won.

Here's the link if you want to see it:

http://youtube.com/watch?v=3HqRMH0wLqo

Make sure your volume is on, and wait till it's around 1:25. Please watch, rate, and comment--tell me what to improve on!

Sir Render.. that was very cool. I like the softness of the morph.

Hi, dudes
here's my happy face http://users.telenet.be/kareldobbelaere/HappyGuy.mov , I have a somewhat simpler version than described above [I think]to add the scale to the tracking too : just pickwip the scale too then add the following to the expression:

Sv=10000/comp("PrecomDemon").layer("curvesDemon").transform.scale[0];
[Sv,Sv]

Sv is a random variable name (could be anything)

greetz s

no motion trackin in my adobe

This doesn't work for me. I followed everything and the Liquify doesn't "flow" with the track.

very good jop
can you show more tutoreial like to show the effect the teeth and begger and long
please reply and thank you for your kind cooperation

Your tutorial is megaburner

I don;t have tracker controls D=
I also have version AE 7

Verry Good

This is an amazing tutorial! And it can be used for a lot of different things. Here is one of my experiments with this tutorial (also experimented with keying the color correction curves)

Thanks!

Thank you for this great tutorial!!

But I have one question: When I am about to create a new mask for the demon face colour with the pen tool, I create a "Mask Path" and not a "Mask Shape". I am using AE CS3. What should I do?

Please respond here: athenva@gmail.com

Here's mine!!!

I appreciate these tutorials but it's hard for people like me who are comp illiterate, and the project files do not work for AE 8... :( I knew it wasnt ment to be

you are f**king awesome, Andrew. You have inspired me to buy those expansive after effect profesinal cs3 and action movie essentials. I know they will worth every penny.

Thank you and please continue doing the good deeds.

Warm Regards from NEPAL,

BHAKTA

You are an inspitation, thank you. Tomorow we buy your dvd´d. My demon face. In dutch , sorry!
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Q4nXoDzn7DE

Wow, nice tut. Im having 1 problem though. I tracked everything and reversed tracked it, i then added the liquify filter to the vid but it doesnt follow it???

Really cool Andrew!
One of my favorites!

super, magnifique, que dire de plus

This tutorial is awesome! I really like how easily he explains things, so people with no knowledge of After Effects can pick it up with ease.

I encountered a problem though...I have 6.0 professional and right after I do the reverse tracking part, the image stabilizes but the image quality looks like it's under water or something. Anyone got any ideas what would cause this??? It's even there when I output to .avi or Quicktime.

this one is my fav.

Hi, Theses tutorials are the best ever seen and comprehensive, but its gonna take me some time to master the technics. I'm still a very beginner to AE.

what camera do you use for filming? and how much does it cost? Thanks for a great tutorial.. keep up the good job, Andrew.

I stumbled upon your site by accident, I've been browsing your tutorials for AE and They have HELPED a bunch. I'm learning new things with every tutorial. I really hope to see more from you, i wish every video tutorial were as good and helpful as yours are!

Hi i m a compositor from turkey. and follow the way you lead andrew....let me ask are you planing to make vampire desintegratin effect? like dusting deaths in buffy/angel or blade

this is my version of the demod http://youtube.com/watch?v=RSPPrjJg7xU

An update:
For those who don't know how to use this tracking technique with scale too, just check "scale" in the stabilize motion step, and then, you can use the following expression in the scale (you can link first with the "link" handle, and then edit the expression generated):

ACHICADO_X = 100 - comp("Tracked").layer("Stabilized").transform.scale[0];
ACHICADO_Y = 100 - comp("Tracked").layer("Stabilized").transform.scale[1];
ESCALAR_X = 100 + ACHICADO_X;
ESCALAR_Y = 100 + ACHICADO_Y;
[ESCALAR_X , ESCALAR_Y]


Where "Tracked" is the comp to work with (the PreComp in the Andrew tutorial), and "Stabilized" is the comp with the original movie.

Basically, the expression works like this:
if the scale of the stabilizing result is 90%, then it scales at 100%

EXLANS . EXLANS . EXLANS RELY YOU EXLANS .THANK U

Hi!! Im a Graphic Designer from Mexico and I really love your job andrew!!! thank you. I have After Effects 7 but I don´t have the tracker controls and I need to finish a spot. Please help me!! What I have to do??

RELY YOU EXLANS THNK YOU ANDRO

I dont understand why your using such a complex capture method?
Doesnt it easy to capture the position and the rotation and aply it to a null object like in the crawling bug tut?

>-(AMAZING!!! lol It appears that everytime I learn something about your wonderful digital god techniques, I learn how to do something else... For the suicide Tut, I found out how to do Predator... With this, Vampire/Zombie... lol we can probably make it look even better then I Am Legend... Thanks for poping up tuts on your page, they are just incredible.

I was wondering why i can not play the video. i have tried it on many computers. what else can i do to see this tutorial with out actually buying it? Can some give me a hand?

Hey, I followed this tutorial quite a while ago, but my video on youtube has had a lot views :).

I kept the effect sort of subtle(a lot of people overdo the grunge and the liquify, wich I don't really like). Anyway, here's the outcome:

Hi Andrew, I love this tutorial! I used it for a school production of Scrooge . The part where Jacob Marleys ghost appears, I projected a video of the ghost floating around and messed up the actresses face using liquify and motion tracking. Scared the audience half to death! Check it out at http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TIKeO6bIiUQ

That is really Awesome !!!
Thank's for this

haha this is amazing!! ...there is so much that you can do once you understand some of the things you show us in this tutorial!

This tutorial is amazing, It seems like the possibilities with after effects are endless. I really look forward to learning more about this program. Thanks, heres my demon face.

hy i am cristian from argentina very nice work i like to work like taht nice tuto.

is there a way for me to download these tuts to watch later with out being on the net.

What program makes that changing demon face. I can use it on my halloween movies. Please help. I already have videos on youtube. And I would like for next halloween to use this effect, thank you

I cannot get this to work the liquify effect doesnt move with the footage I dont know where Im goin wrong

I believe the motion tracking is only available in the "professional" edition of AE 7.0; in the help file, it says (Pro only) when referencing tracker controls. Hope that helps anyone who needed it.

Hey guys im having a little problem....i can't seem to find the tracker controls on my after effect. which version is it on.. i have version 7.0

nevermind its only my 1st day on after effects overlooked something right in front of me

love this tutorial

i also have the same "tracker control" problem,does anyone have an idea why the f.ck this is because?i have a.e 7.0 but im about to go crazy,got very pissed off for noone helpin :S

thank for the tut.with your help i can make my ideas real thing.KEEP HELPING ME.

I love it but when i try to to it on 6.5 i cant use the sqiggaly line to go from anchor point, position, rotation to the other comp please help

greatjob!!!thank you andrew

Amazing!!!!!! andrew Kramer...you...Genius...

Thanks a lot andrew that rocks ... but i have a qustion ... from where can i get those sounds of demonic voices and screams or roars and how can i apply them in to the scene of the moment scream!

I will be very greatfull if someone tells me or show me:)

hey andrew thnx a lotttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttt!!!!!! also maybe you could make a HULK transformation tutorial if you want to again thank u ur the best !!!!!

very good thank's for that tuto

someone should try that effect with like a rubber werewolf mask, or perhaps more pleasing a realistic werewolf mask, remote controlled to move the mouth, ears and such. Just a thought.

bien m,e gustaria saber si nos pueden ayudar en unos efectos especiales para hacer una pelicula

Andrew you are an absolute legend. This tutorial rocks. I was just wondering what the difference was between reverse-stabilization and simply applying tracking data to a nul object. It seems like reverse-stabilization is more work for the same outcome. Cheers mate.

Lol, it was alt click,

Ahmad, I think that this function it's not able in after effects 6.5 (in fact, I buy the 7.0 version, just for that function)

AdIeU

this tut is pretty awesome but there is still one thing i dont really understand: the motion stabilizing... i mean if you reverse stabilize it... arent u basically adding the exact same shakes or cam movements that it had before? can you please make a tutorial only for motion stabilizing... it would be really great because many of us who can afford big cameras and tripods and stands use small ones which do have a lot of shakes... thanks a lot man!

hey, thanks man, great tutorial, but I have a problem . . . in the beginning, when you alt-click on position in PreCompFace, it doesn't work for me. I have After Effects 6.5 on a mac, everything else before that worked fine except for that. Please help me out here. Thanks.

I'm sorry, I have a problem, when Andrew want to copy the settings of one to another (in the second 5:57), he get some options to translate one settings to the other "Expresion position", but, he get the ....Dreamcast logo xd. How did he do this?. Because I don't know, I have the adobe after effects pro 7.0, the same that Andrew use. Pleas, if someone know how did he get that option, I will be thanksfull.

Thanks

AdIeU

this is such a good tutorial, heres a rough version that i tried


http://www.stickypod.com/videos/data/596/demon_face_warp.mp4

Hey Andrew. I don't know if you got my other message, buy I figured out how to do the demon face warp. Except for there is one little problem. When I reverse track it, my footage still turns out all rotated off the screen when I finish doing it. Do you mabye know what I could be doing wrong?

Thanks,
napoleon22

Ey dude!! The best tutorial ever! Pease out! take care!

i can't method to say thank you for this tutorial . it's very useful and really enjoy with it. i will wait next project .

The Program he used was just After effects.

question how do i track diffrent parts of a video wile its being stabilized for examp if i wanted to track the teeth wile the video is being stabilized

Forgot to write in my hotmail. Email me if you know why the Motion tracker aint in Windows. I got AE 7.0, do i need AE CS3?

can any one tell me how to track the teeth and have it stick to the precomp face?

I cant find the Motion Tracker :S I got AE 7.0 do i need AE CS3?

Hey Andrew. You are amazing at After Effects. But about this demon face warp tutorial, I follwed all the steps with the tracking and reverse tracking, and it would not turn out right on mine. I have After Effects 6.0 Professional, so could that be the problem? Also, I don't get how tracking and reverse tracking make the liquify effect stay on the face. Please Write back.
Thanks,
napoleon22

I wanna try this one on my picture.

Hi there great tutorial!

I am making a movietrailer at school learning after effects, and deamons are going to be in it. I dont know if you have seen the series Supernatural but they make a cool eye effect, they turn all black and it looks really real, and i was wondering if you know how to do that? or red for that sake?

Regards Furier

Again thanks, Andrew. I see that others have offered links to their efforts, so here's mine:

http://www.youtube.com/profile?user=philipmbirch

this reminds me of the movie "30 Days of Night"

Thank you for that, Andrew. A great tutorial. So satisfying to create the effect. Please keep them coming.

bravo.... that's very very nice
...

Such a great tutorial. I got super excited over this one!
Here is my version of the demon face using liquify:

Have you gotten an answer for your question yet? We should exchange emails and If I hear something I can pass it along. Andrew - I'm sure you're inundated, but is this something you're seen?

Does anyone know why I would have After Effects but not have the tracking controls option? I can change to the motion tracking workspace, but I don't have the tracking control options to track motion. Does this require the production suite? I can see the tracked data if I open the project file from this tut, but I can't track my own video. Help if you can. This would really make my life so much easier because I had to add this effect frame by frame which will be impossible for any longer videos.

Thanks!

i got a problem... when i doble click the precomp its don´t appear a new composition with the real video ... also if some one can write that part and a little bit of the next part i will thanks it ..i don´t know if you understand me but....

Hey, Kramer!!!
I'm from Brazil and discovered your website recently (2 or 3 months). Thank you. Without your help I'll never reach the 'real monster'.

Very very cool!

I followed this step by step and I think it looks really cool. Thanks A lot Andrew Kramer!

Heres my link if you wanna see =)

Awesome. Will have to have a go. Looks like you can use this technique for many other uses too :D

Great tutorial! Only have one question. How do you do when a persons head is coming towards the camera? The face becoms bigger and I didn´t found a great way to track so that the demon face scales up and stays tracked to the face. I had to animate all the masks, frame by frame. So, is there a easy way to track the "demon face" on a persons face when it´s coming towards the camera?

Very cool, I'll be using this effect in my movie called Swamp Justice. Hey peep out the movie trailer at www.swampjustice.com and tell me what you think. Trailer 2 is better. Keep up the great work Andrew.

This is a great tutorial, really original and really good quality effect...
