Thank you Andrew Kramer! I feel like Prometheus and you just gave me fire!

03/08/2013

i love this program, wish i had the dollar bills :( Found out about it through film riot,

03/08/2013

When I try do animate the watch how do I assign the different parts to groups in element?
Under scene I only have one group. I looks different in the example..

03/08/2013

EPIC

02/19/2013

Hey, can anyone say how is this glow effect is applied to element?

01/20/2013

When I try to animate the amount of particles stays the same in group 2 even though i make it like 1 particle

02/05/2013

Did you make sure to up the scatter rate?

01/10/2013

I have a problem. When I rotate the propeler blade from my helicopter model in element it rotates around the center of heli instead of the center of the blade. Any way to fix this?

02/12/2013

in the scene set up set the rotor to a separate group. move your offsets so that they are in the center of your rotor. it is a pain in the butt to get centered but that is the only way i know to do it

01/04/2013

very nice,thank u

12/13/2012

The part where there is a black sphere turning into a orange one.
How can I make that cool glow effect?

11/17/2012

10/20/2012

ya its nice

10/18/2012

no one can help me for element 3d cast shadow and rotate helicopter blades because when i rotate blades that time its rotate offset not at the center

11/08/2012

09/27/2012

Thanks

09/18/2012

hey the light of AE doesnot effect to the element 3d. pls give solution. :) Thanks

09/18/2012

Andrew, It would be great if you could just show how to use element 3d environments in the actual composition. Thanks!

09/17/2012

Can you apply an avi as a texture map like in 3dsMax. I want to use it for medical 3d models and need to fit animated screens on the models. Doesn't seem so to me

09/04/2012

Oh, man! This is new era of motion design! Finally powerful 3D in AE. Thanks, from Russia Andrew!

09/02/2012

This is the best plugin

Part: Black/Orange Ball

Hey Guys, how i can change the Changing-Colour between the Orange and the Black boxes when it change from Group one to two. In Andrews Example the Color goes from Orange to Red to Black. When I Built this Ball its Orange to White to Black. I Wanne change the White Colour to Red.


Sorry for my really Bad english I am from germany

08/10/2012

Hi, go to material set for black ball, and set "ilumination" color from white to black.

07/30/2012

Hi Andrew.very cool tutorial & awesome plugin.you create a huge revolution for special visual effects in After Effects.I wanna thanks for video copilot .you are helping us with great tutorial.But there is one problem , how do I provide your plugin.Its hard to get in my country.Could you please guide me?Thanks

07/30/2012

Hi,
I own several of your products (Flares, Production Essentials, Presets, Element, Camera Tracker, etc.) Element is a great tool for motion graphic production and I am working the program daily, however, I am seeing drop-outs on renders involving the animation engine (I assume that is the issue). The bevels are disappearing for 1 frame at a time and portions of the text are disappearing for 1 frame intermittently on several renders. I tried only rendering the Element tracks with the same result. I am working on a I Mac with 8 processors and 16 gig of ram with the memory cache setup on the sys drive with 2 processors reserved for the system and 6 for AE. Thanks for the great, continuing work on this. Jeff

07/29/2012

Thanks to Andrew for his time to make the tutorial so understandable. This site make me step up my project AE CS5 in a different level. I very glad to see more new tutorial and plugins. I gave a two thumbs up to Andrew and the crew for this site.

07/28/2012

(iam french sorry for bad english)Well I think this plugin will revolutionize motion design, and 3D ... VideoCopilot, Andew Kramer thank you, you understand the needs of artists ... For years I dreamed of a plugin like this ... I bought it yesterday afternoon .. My god! what a wonder! I made an animation of typography absolutely sublime in a very short time ... And when I did my preview ... I can not believe it! in HD with motion blurr, depth of field, ... Within minutes I had a professional motiondesign worthy, and very easy to edit ... It's just sick! I see the videos that are emerging on the web at full speed ... You guys have created a breach in the Workflow that's true !! ... The breach that we all expected!!! thanks a lot !!

07/23/2012

OUUUUAH !! AWESOME !!!

07/19/2012

Great tutorial! I would really like to see the CG side of this plugin because it seems to have some great potential.

07/19/2012

I personally would like to see a more in-depth from start-to-finish of that disco-ball-like animation. 16 minutes on a adding a texture, & a quick 3 minutes on doing that animation? I find the animation engine to be the most complex part of this plugin.

07/19/2012

Andrew Is't the one

07/18/2012

This maybe easily your best creatION muahaha muahahahahahaha!

07/18/2012

HOLY MOTHER OF HOLIES!

I knew you were working on something big, but i had no idea how huge it really was. andrew this is going to be a great investment for everyone!

07/17/2012

NO FBX support Will fbx be supoorted in future.. this would be a wonderful addition esp if it reads the animation of the fbx file too!!! could import things like walking people in scen for example;

PLEASE i guess i would even pay for a FBX plugin to element!!

07/16/2012

wow your products really make animating cosmic and mind expanding :)

07/16/2012

your tutorial such a nice tutorial i like too much

07/15/2012

element 3d will change the world of after effect because now it open new things to do for the firs time but i hope and i hope that in the next element 3d we can load import animations especially for liquid , www.youvfx.iwebs.ws

07/15/2012

Where's the Black Hawk?

07/15/2012

I'm dying! I love you Andrew!

07/15/2012

07/14/2012

07/14/2012

Hi Andrew, I don't know what to say but really you are the best, thank you for your great job

07/14/2012

Ive been playing with my entire Elements pack for couple days now and I am still speechless! VCP...you guys have revolutionized Vis FX and made it so accessible to Indie filmmakers such as myself. I cant believe how many TV commercials, Movies etc are using your tools! I see VCP everywhere and its well deserved. The other day on So you think you can Dance they used your Pro Scores "Unstoppable" track for a dance that blew away the audience. Fan for life and student for life! THANKS ANDREW!

07/12/2012

HA! I love your dad jokes Andrew. And thanks again for such an amazing product. Seriously going to change the way we work with 3D models in AE!

07/14/2012

07/12/2012

So how would you do such animations with text?

07/12/2012

The Scene Setup interface looks awesome.

07/12/2012

hi mr kramer,before i pull the trigger on my purchase, i would like to know if the black hawk model is included in the total package for 495.50.Also being a novice and following your tutorials i would like to know if after i create something in 3-d element how can i integrate it into live footage..if you can comment or point me to one of your tutorials that explain how to do this would be greatly appreciated.Thank you.

07/12/2012

Splendid Andy!

07/12/2012

Just a quick question: This beautiful Sphere of blocks fading from Black to orange....would this be included in the Motion Design Pack?

I already looked for fracture in Blender, but the fracture-Plugin is not able to split in such elegant blocks. And I'm a bloody 3D beginner :)

07/12/2012

Forget it.
I looked again at the video and found out, that there are 280 iterations of one object, which is clearly just one simple cube.

In-Cre-Di-Ble

07/12/2012

I don't think he used a fractured layer. It looks like he started with a standard cube as the particle type, and set the "replicator shape" to Sphere, to make them arrange in a ball like that.

07/12/2012

it is a wonderfull

07/12/2012

Holy smokes Batman! This is awesome!!

You have just bridged a gap between 3D and 2D, you've invented 2.5 KramerD, I love it.

Game changer for sure.

07/12/2012

This tutorial has taken vfx onto next level !!..

It just changes the capablities of After Effects
This is the Best PLUGIN till date...

07/12/2012

Ok, if there was a nobel prize for VFX it would go to Andrew Kramer. My mind is blown. This my friend will change VFX forever.

07/12/2012

07/12/2012

hrm, in the orb part (made of cubes) - how do you get the cubes to change colour?

i cant seem to find the part of element that does that between groups :(

07/11/2012

45mm?, you mean .45 caliber. 45mm would be awfully large for a pistol - grenade launchers are only 40mm.

07/12/2012

Ok, mr. I play too much Modern Warfare. Calm down before you hyper ventilate.
