It's so nice! Thank you Andrew!

Nice tutorial.

You can use free photoshop cloud brushes to create the smoke later. Check out Deviant Art for some freebies. You could also find a picture with clouds and borrow one of the elements.


Best,

Chris

Andrew,

Thank you so much for all of your hard work. Between your excellent products to your great tutorials this is a complete stop for learning After Effects! I now have every product except for clouds and can honestly say that I have used the products more than I thought I would. You have saved my but on time crunches many times.

Steven

love the tutorial but where is that smoke layer?

Thomas, check the project link above for the smoke element.

Andrew,
Thanks so much for this valuable training. As an owner of many of your products, I'd like to encourage everyone to buy them as well. They are just as useful as the high dollar plug-ins that Andrew uses. Great tutorial and I love the humorous approach. BTW, now I know who broke my window. I'm sending the cops!

amazing tutorial, i'm using the technique in a project right now, and i really needed some better looking smoke.

Really great, loved the simplicity!

Adobe just launched http://tv.adobe.com/ and I can't believe that they didn't license some of your content for use on their site. You tutorials really show the power of AE especially when coupled with creativity as you did with this tutorial. Thanks again for all the time you have invested in increasing the knowledge pool when it comes to video effects.

Awesome as always! Thanks Andrew!

Good tutorial. It would be nice to add some beams of light. Like you see on Batman!

ANDREW ...Amazing,,,Thanks...

This is awesome! :)

I have one problem. I have After Effects, but I don't have that effect. I don't have the CC particle world thing. Where can I find it?

My videos are on youtube and Myspace.

For youtube type in Ezerlance.

For Myspace, type in Myspace.com/ezerlance

Awesome!! This is really one of the best tutorials ever!!

Amazing as always

wow very nice tutorial!!!
thank you andrew...you are the best

Amazing as always

Amazing as always

Well, thanks again andrew. I wonder f with that kind of effects you could make sam fly over clouds and then go down the clouds so we can see the ground (or floor, i don't know wich one it's supposed to be in english)

Another great tutorial by President Cramer!
Andrew, you are my hero :D:D

gz fron Germany

OMG, I cannot believe you can make that kind of animation with a couple of tools and elements. OMG.....

Thank you SO much for these tutorials and for your Production asset discs! You've really helped me get out of the Motion Graphics box and learn more about VFX!

I hope ya do another NYC event! I missed the last one!

Hey, you're a pro!!!
Keep up the good work.. Love all you're tuts!

Hey! I´m havin some trouble watching the tut, the window just turns white when I klick the "watch" button...
Anyway, love everything you do! Keep it up!

nice one! good jokes by the way, also, you can animate the camera to like passing the smokes without hitting them, like trying to avoid them... i don't know if it's a good ideea... but... what can i do?

hai kramer...u are hammering the vfx industry..purely for the beginners..thanks a lot

Shakthi, dindigul, TN,India

Thanks Andrew

Love your stuff. Use it all the time. I do music vids for professional artists (South Africa). I sent you an e-mail some time ago for a tutorial about a person walking through a wall or a door. Could you try that for us? I'm sure I'm not the only one who could benefit from it.

Thanks again and God bless

Great tut, nice techniques, bad jokes

thanks vcp!

Great tutorial. Keep it up Andrew. I've learned so much from your tutorials. Big thanks from Kraljevo Serbia.

Hey Andrew,

I am a huge fan, to start off. I have a question regarding your tutorial as i was watching it. You know how some people use stock footage as a luma matte, for example, an ink drop. can you create a an evolving clouds, as you did in this tutorial, as a luma matte for a "revealing mask" effect? i hope this question wasn't too confusing.

Norway says nice for this tutorial! :D

thanks a lot for another tutoials ,i am traying to make landslide i did it by using satter ut i cant put life into it can u help me thanku

Thanks AK, for another inspiring tutorial! FYI, the background texture Andrew uses is from his Evolution product, not RiotGear.

Pretty nice! You are one of the best!
And I want to advise you one of the best FREE(!) plugin for 3D studio Max. It calls DustDevil(http://www.maxplugins.de/r6_files/blurbeta/dustdevil.zip)
It will helps you to create come nice custom volumetric smoke and clouds footages like this:

AK, thanks so much for highlighting the Turbulent Displace effect. I've used it many times in the past to create similar motion out of a still cloud clip. Pretty amazing to see how much organic movement you can get from one smaller single frame element. Kudos, bro!

rly nice andrew btw somebody break our window last week ^^ :D

Not sure if you read these, but why do you have to post these tutorials? They are amazing and its giving me a hard time to stand out from the rest of the AE User field.

In my newest video (I haven't released yet) I have a smokey foreground. And well, I gotta scratch that now because the people reviewing it will just call me a "AndrewKramer" wannabe. Aargh, why do you have to be soo amazing... :-\

Oh well, good tutorials nonetheless.


-Disgruntled AE User

you're the funniest guy on the web. thanks for the tutorials.

Nice Andrew!

Very helpfull to see how After Effects can handle such a smoke elements.

Have you seen Jonas Ussings cloud tutorial for 3dsmax?
Here is the link:
http://www.duck.dk/tutorials/jussing_cloud_tutorial.pdf

I don't know if there are any other fans of sarcasm on here but your tutorials are not only helpful and productive but a comedic riot. thank you for the laughs.

i'll come to your house and break your windows
mind bending writers
do not look at the sun with a telescope

priceless

Thnx! Youre the man Kramer

hi ANDREW you are king of after effect
you are good friend
you are best man thank you

Hey Sir Andrew, great tutorial huh. Anyway I'm just a beginner in Adobe After Effects. I have a question for you anyway. What's the difference in using After Effects CS3 and After Effects 7. In your Basic training you are using CS3, but most of your tutorial you are using AE7. Does it make difference in memory usage, like previewing in AE7 faster than in CS3, or AE7 is stable than CS3?

And also why is it hard to do previews on AE compared to video editing programs like pinnacle studio, where you can easily preview your work in realtime from beginning to end. It's hard to preview a composition with more than 1minute length in AE. Ows, maybe this question can be answered by Adobe, but I would like to hear your opinion bout that also.

Andrew .u re great Teacher.
We pround in you

from algeria mes salutations les plus distinguées
you are the best; man
thanks.

thanks

U R the best! always awesome! Thanks for your tutorial

Thx dude...can you fix my window now ;)

GO ANDREW GO!!!

you're simply the best

what about an "How to make Flames" tutorial? it would be grat and interesting for...let see...99% of us

thanks for your job from Italy

Hey Andrew, thanks for all of your tutorials. With any luck, the knowledge you've shared with me will be helping me in the near future to land a job doing video work. If it does, I'll be plunking down some cash to buy more of your fine products! (Payback isn't always a _____)
Thanks again!

Andrew Kramer with the VideoCopilot Crew pretty much made After Effects! "VCP After Effects" is what is should be called!

Hi, seen your tutorials for a while, and absolutly loved this one, but I am thinking about getting the student version of AE, will your plugins + presets work the same? (Version CS3)

Thanks

hey andrew, another great tutorial
you know you and sam loya should think about making a feature/short film or something for video-copilot.net
it would be great, you could use it as an advert for a plug-in or a promo for the site.

Great tutorial Andrew, just like all your other tutorials.

I am just a beginner, but here is what I came up with after watching your tutorial: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LN50hF6_S8U
I know it's not perfect(and not even close to be), but it's something.

In this video I used 3 different clouds that I created in photoshop.


Thanks for all your great tutorials,
Evyatar,
Israel.

Andrew thank you from Russia..
You the best!

Awesome video again dude. Thanks for tut.

How about 'How to make snow tutorials?' that would be great.

Thanks anyway

really nice tutorial

Nice one Andrew. Now I see how they MIGHT have done the effect in X-men when they use 'Cerebro' to track people... Smoke and particles (in that case, people) flying towards you.

Thanks.

may Christ be born in ur heart if he hasn't. Andrew, u r just to good not to belong to Jesus.

Thanks Andrew from The Netherlands

It's very good tutorial
I hope to learn the afterEffect but i think it's very deficult , so i want to learn afterEffect to learn on thing only this time because i use the flash i want to make flash very attractive , so i must use the affterEffect to do it, so I wanna form Mr.Andero Kramer to put tutorial about how to make roll page like in many of flash template . very thanks

Thanks Andrew from The Netherlands

where project file in the 63.zip?

muchas gracias, apenas llevo 5 dias usando after y ya con tus turiales parezco un maestro

Thanx a lot, i've been using after just for 5 days, and i know practycally everyting, thans to your tuts.

thx

I have a problem Andrew, maybe you can send me a email or something regarding the resolve of it
In After Effects, after I set every layer 3D and Create a New camera ,, 50 mm preset uaually) when i click on that image that is suppose to give me the ,,Orbit Camera Tool'' and,, Track Z'' etc...it doesn't pop up anything..i just click on it and nothing happens
I also have another problem with the camera when parenting to a Null Object, when I click on the Null and move it along, it doesn't give me immmediate results ...like how i'm draging it....it just tells me that i'm draging it..when i'm finished draging it..it puts it in the place where I drag it...so i can't really see where i drag it. I hope you understand...I think i'll make a youtube video with my problem since no one seems to help me on it.
My computer is high-end...Q6600 Processor...good motherboard.GPu..etc...but some things just won't work right
I have A3 7 Professional


Thanks


GOod Tutorial btw

Hola, eres un fenomeno.....un saludo desde ESPA�

All i want to say is WOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOW and i have
been using After effects for 3 months and after seeing this tutorial i finally QUIT QUIT QUIT
i just don't see my self coming up with gr8 ideas
like this DAMN YOU ANDREW,and one more thing i think my wife is getting tierd of hearing your name in the house every time you come up with great stuff like this i sit her down and make her watch it with me
may sound sad but why miss out on goodness like this..

As per usual; great info. Any chance of some future tutorials that will include some Trapcode Form? Maybe something that covers some basic functions of Form and the advantages of using it instead of Particular for certain scenarios. That would be awesomeness. Thanks for all the great work.

super

Great,
as always.

Cooooool & thanX

THIS SITE IS AMAZING

Btw the german tv reality show Big Brother uses alot of andrew kramers sounds from DEsigner Sound FX or they used the Earth Zoom project i saw it yesterday and i knew immediatly its from Andrew.

Great tutorial,

but.... It would have been nice to know that I would have to have the Trapcode Particular effect

Is there an easy way to get this because I'm a poor college student unfortunately I don't have the bucks to lay down on this awesome effect. I did a quick Google search and just the particular effect is over $280 - any suggestions for free or cheaper replacements

COOL!!!!!!

Great tutorial. Thanks!

Wow this tutorial is a breath of fresh air. Nice! I cant get over the illusion factor of the single image presented. Badass

Genial. Muy util y re bueno. Siempre me gustaron tus tutoriales

If you dont want the internet getting took over by virgin media please watch this video and you will understand whats going on.

http://stopvirgin.movielol.org/

fantastic tutorial, hope to see more 3dmax stuff too. Have you heard of that script for AE that averages out multiple motion track data to make a very accurate track?

Vey helpful Thanks for the great info.
Side note. Is anybody having issues going to creativecow and looking at podcasts? Quicktime seems to be crashing my firefox browser.

any tutorials about fire please? car on fire, explosions, human torch hehe. some thing about fire. thanks and keep up the good work

Hi guys.
Thanks Andrew great one. If someone know how to turn text in to smoke or maybe our master can help.
Thanks in advance

What's unique about Andrew's tutorials is the process: learning the behemoth that is After Effects while we accumulate these handy bag o' tools.

We love you and all that you do! All my best wishes to you and your family (from Madagascar)

"so you might just wanna turn down the particles per second..... so you know you don't blow your computer up" hahahaha legend.

thanks for this tutorial Andrew.
i've been looking around for something like this.

keep up the good work.

Andrew

Realmente son muy buenos los tutoriales que realizas. . . VENEZUELA

Everybody plz check it out the trailer i put up using some of andrew's awesome effects.
plz rate and comment if u like it.

Hey Rey, regarding smokey text;
maybe try using a blocky font in white and track/luma matte it to see through to the smoke Andrew demonstrated creating in this tutorial.
Could slightly rotate a copy of the smoke in 3D and bring it up through the text layer ( forward on z axis) to smother the letters, increasing opacity of rising smoke and increasing blur on text. Have not tried it though ;-]

You ARE THE BEST ANDREW.
ILOVE YOU TUTORIALS KEEP IT UP MAN
FORM SUDAN

Hey Andrew, very cool this tutorial, congratulations, a love yours tutos, but you do someone idea how is make this effect like liquid tint, the same on videoclip of the Gnarls Barkley " CRAZY". and this video (http://www.blind.com/Workspace/uploads/video/honda_marathon_s.mov).I like very much to see a new tutorial make for you about this effect. thank you.

Greatest tutorials i've ever seen. Andrew, im waiting for some tricky one. Like, make a 3D map in MAX (a box on a flat eq) and use it in AE. For example, want to see some particules bounced on the box and drop on the flat randomly. A real 3D in AE:)) Thx 4 your great job.

Hey thanks a lot for the tutorial... here is a link to youtube where I made something with the help of your tutorial...thanks a lot http://youtube.com/watch?v=3rozGY6sO_Y
