Find a donut shop and fire a few shots into the air to get them to follow you? If you were in a pickup truck would there have been banjo music playing? Great tutorial Andrew, keep up the good work! :) Brian by behzad 04/19/2008 cool by Jonathan capistran 04/18/2008 Excellent, you're amazing. I'm mexican so my english is'nt well anyway, if you could do a video like at smallville I mean the bullet with the air you know that's pretty good or when clark run fast and the world is in slow motion, anyway, I hope that you understand me by Andy Spinova 04/18/2008 Cool of the coolest... I'm learning A lot Andrew, thanks... anyway, i have one question... are these tutorials available for downloading? somehow, maybe...???by metalpig 04/18/2008 David, there's sth wrong with my work in this tutorial. I still wonder that Motion Track may depend on Framerate or the color or resolution. Would you mind sending me your AE file,plz !(including the converted video). by David 04/17/2008 @metalpig— I don't think After Effects can properly interpret the footage. I had to open the supplied footage in Final Cut Pro and export the clip again to get the right frame rate. The timeline should be 720p24 HDV (24 really 23.976). You have to have FCP 5.1.4 or higher to have the HDV settings. This is what I got compared to the original: http://yourvisualimage.com/test/footage_sidebyside.mov If you have Premiere Pro, it will actually make the footage 23.980 (rounding up) and AE can see it properly. At least that's what I'm finding online. If you don't have PP, AE messes up the video. Andrew, we need to move you to Final Cut Pro. I know deep down your Appleness is crying out. You gave me some awesome ideas with this smoke twist you showed. Way to go. by Sahan 04/17/2008 Nice tutorial.

Thanks. by mike 04/16/2008 thanks andrew, i've been looking for something like this for awhile!! ![]() by bill 04/16/2008 Nice. I do not understand why the smooth doesn't work on the anchor point tracked but on the null with a cam... Something good would be to do the same kind of thing, but with a panoramic movement, that's hard to stabilize. thanks by ameritza 04/16/2008 yes..old music is back:))I missed it:) Good tutorial...

Are you using footage that has been compressed in order for AE to run this fast? Whenever I import a self contained QT file from Final Cut, I always have to work at a lower res because the HDV footage I'm working with always takes FOREVER to preview a render or sometimes to even jump around in the time line.

Brazilllllllll by Chuva 04/13/2008 Love the site, love the tutorials, but for me, it would be a compliment if someone said, "Your movie reminds me a lot of the Blair Witch"... if I was going for that. Now if I was shooting a standard film, it wouldn't be good, and would be more like "Hey, your flick is a lot like Bourne Ultimatum", which would be a slap in the face. Good movie, garbage cinematography and editing. Great job as usual tho! ![]() by Bo 04/13/2008 sweet. Thank you. Good stuff. by Rayliotta 04/13/2008 Dayum...

AE books are hard to find and this looked the best. Thx by Konstantin 04/13/2008 Thanks for your Work Andrew!!! It´s all bestes tutorials ! by Kevin G 04/13/2008 Man Andrew I need this exact lesson about 3 weeks ago. I made a CG car and need smoke coming off the wheels. I dreaded using 3d smoke effectors due to the large render times for HD compositing. I turned to particular but I could not control the speed of the particle generation since the car played back at 90 fps and the smoke had to generate super slow. With one day to brainstorm the effect, I left the car smokeless. It was still an awesome effect yet it could have been even more dynamic. So in essence I am thanking you for such an awesome tutorial. Thanks a million once again. I will experiment and add the car with smoke for my reel tape. Peace out. Oh btw the car was sliding sideways and then had to turn (all at 90 fps) and when that happened I did not have time to properly track the effect using particular and your null control tutorial about 30 lesson back. I thought of asking for you help but could not contact you on the matter. All is well and have a great day. by TheMonster 04/13/2008 Alright! Who's da man? Andrew is da man! Thanks so much! You are seriously awesome Andrew. We really do appreciate that you take up some time to make free tutorials for us. That is wicked! Thx a lot man!
