andrew kramer, you are undeniable a genius, im surprised they haven't given you a nobel peace prize yet

whats your tag name?

can anyone explain how to do it in AE 6.5? it's a little different than the version he used.

Hey. As everyone else, I also love your tutorials.
I have a prob with this one. When you like.. mark the text with the pentool.. erm.. well that doesnt work when i do it. If i have red text, then uses the pentool - the pentool makes big red marks after it.

Hope you understand.

Thanks a lot my friend, greats tutos!!! very usefull!! Ccs Vzla

Hey yo, i got the project file.... but how do i get the tagx text into my droplist for list of text to choose from?

Great tut! The path/stroke thing works for more than text. I've been doing this type of transition manually with masks. This is a time saver and a half. Thanks.

Very good Tutorial but I don't find the wallpapers... They aren't in the project zip file...

Great, great, always great !!!!

Gays I have question! How TagsXtreme text can be pushed in Adobe After Effects?

Why is it that when I download your project, I cannot see the same exact thing/ project you created when I try to view it or play arround with it. I do Have CS3 Suite and i have all your products?

Hey Andrew,

Greetings from Trinidad (in the Caribbean). Man I must say that you are an inspiration. I am a Print Designer, I just begun my transition into Motion Graphics and your tutorials have been a great help.

Thanks a mil for taking the time out to share with us .

Nice! Tutorial

Great,your tutorials!
It is very useful to me.

its first time i watched a professional standard keeping tutorial ANDREW KRAMER you are agreat amazing personality because you are boosting many students by your great tutorials thank you thank you thank you thank you...........

how am i supose to get the effects you use i cant find them on ur site ugh!! help! plzzz

Great tute, I'm really a flash developer but want to go down the after effects route as it so much more powerful and would love to integrate the two. Got the mask working and tried to export to flash thinking that it would be vectorised as the text is vector and the stroke is vector. No wall included :) However the mask did not output. the only way I could create it is as bitmaps which I don't want to do. I have seen other people do this such as "fake pilot" - love his work too. Any ideas how I can do this as I have searched fruitlessly on this topic but believe that it must be able to be done some way. By the way, love your work and think you are doing a great job for the after effects community :)

cooool i like that

hi there, your the best! but where can i get the wallpaper thing? greets from holland!!!

Hey Andrew
Great work as always and here's
my video

http://www.myvideo.de/watch/5309470/

thx

how i download

Please, I need help. I have got a adobe after effects 6.5 but I cannot move with a camera to a 3d moving. I cannot make a 3d tunnel and when I chose a light so there is a write ,,active camera´´

Greetings from Jamaica!

Great tutorials! Can I download the Tut videos you have on the website so I can practice with them when not online?

great tutorial but i've got 1 problem when i want to choose type of letter it show me error 84 :: 4 or something like that. So whats the problem does anybody know????

For everyone who wants to know where to put the font...
If it's a TrueType font file, you put it in C:\windows\fonts, and then it will be in your Adobe applications (assuming, of course that your OS is a windows one). If it's not, try to find it on www.dafont.com, and it will most likely be there. If it's not a TrueType font file and you can't find it on dafont.com, try to put it in the "fonts" folder anyway and see if it works.

Thank you man! Great tutorial!

thank u for the free tutorials for us who cant afford and want to learn thanku

Hi (f)
im a new student ..
^^"

hi how do i get that font into adobe after effects please

From INDIA

hola excelente pero donde puedo conseguir estos tutoriales en español?

gracias tios!

10 stars¡¡¡ amazing the tutorial blew me mind away¡¡¡¡¡¡

I dunno why everyone is saying these tutorials are hard. They're very easy to follow if you did the basic training tutorials

It's funny to see how many TV ads in Germany are using this effect. Same color and same font.

That's a cool tutorial but he's obviously not married. Nice try mate.

I got two weeks watching your tutorials.
Thank you I learned a lot.

Mabalos...

Hi! Andrew this tutorial is sweet! but one problem my AE says: "Error: After Effects error: file "Reveal_3mov" is not a valid file type for import" how can i fix it? please i need to know

very very good

My creation
http://it.youtube.com/watch?v=aUHNqENnfIE

hey andrew very nice tutorial

it looks cool the effect

do you know if they use after effects in the TV?

or wath program because wen the make staff in 3D it dosend look like after effects

ok cheers

michael..

whenever i go over the text with the pen tool, and then generate the stroke over it, the start and end percentages don't animate anything. any suggestions on what i may be doing wrong?

Thanks for a great tutorial Andrew! This is my first "advanced" tutorial since my basic training. Uploaded my try on youtube.com -
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Lxtg3dYz2uw

Amazing tutuorials, thanks!, im a noob to AECS4 but these tutorials are a huge help. Just 1 thing...what would you output these projects as when rendering??? im finding it hard to recreate how good it looks in CS4 to a finished output file, on playback just doesnt look as good. Really appreciate some help.

Tutorial was awesome, I play around with the setting and get some interesting effects ! ADREW you ROCKS ! :]

what an awesome awesome tutorial!
I don't even know how to thank you man.

PLZZZZ HELP how do i save it and make it into an intro HELPPPPP

Do u need to buy the riot gear backgrounds or can u download them for free?

Andrew,

You are a great resource. This tutorial was perfect, I needed to create several animations for a client involving text being written on a chalk board. I thought I was going to have to manually adjust a layer mask with key points in order to animate the text on. The method you used in this tutorial was so much easier. Thank you.

i found TagsXtreme but i cant get it on after effects and this is my first time using it

For all the people who don't know how to install fonts:

Installing the font is done outside of After Effects:

- Go Start>Control Panel> Fonts
This will open a new window

- Press File>Install New Fonts and then navigate to the folder you have the font file in.

- Click Ok and it should be done. It should now show up in the fonts list for After Effects and every other program that uses fonts.

The footage section is empty

i cant make this video because The footage section is empty

Andrew you are the best!!!!!!!!!!! but i have
1 question. where can i download
this Riot Gear FX?
