Coool, Andrew

You make the life for my works

Thanks

hello,

Great tutorial.
I wanted to try this out but I don't have Mr. mercury plug-in.
Is it part of the standard After Effects plug-in set?

Thanks

Hello :)

great tutorial. ButI don't have the "CC" effects, do you have to downloade it?

Another great tutorial..."cooking hot cocoa..."

Hello,

i don`t know if this is the proper place to post this. It is possible to make some kind of t1000 terminator using CC mercury? also can it is possible to use the "speed particles tutorial" to make some kind of teleport effect like in "jumper" movie or smokelike teleport like Nightcrawlwer in Xmen movie?
Thank you verry much

"hi andrew really great tutorial.i still curious your computer system can u say ur system coz my computer so heavey for after effects so many time i asked to you pls giveme answer this time i will buy new computer i wait answer keep your good job"

I think you should have at least 4gb of ram a good dual procesor or tow and at least a Tb of hardisk space and a 64bit operating system.

I use 4 gb ram and an Intel core 2 duo tha thing is i have xp 32 bits and it only reads 3.2gb olso i have 1TB of internal hard drive and an external 1TB for hd footage back up. u should use xp 64bit
its been a year or so since i bought it so im shure u can get this config way more cheap now or a betta one.
by the way i got it from B&H and included Premiere Pro 2 back then with matrox video card and an ATI But ithink nividia its betta isnt it?

awww poor sam

Why there is always a missing file whenever i download the project?

you are a great guy

Hi Andrew I haven't heard the clip with audio yet so I don't know if you talk about it, but the waterdrubs do show the 'background' upside down, so it's a bit wrong the way you show it. Don't know if there's a easy way to fix it.

Best, Jesper

I like it cause the video its enogh to wtch fast and choose another if you want very easy to use good thx

keep up the good work. they are so entertaining.

After watching your tutorials on creative cow I was highly impressed and order two of your DVDs. Thanks and keep up the good work.

Thanks a lot,it is very cool.i like it,

How can I make the droplets stay completely still? I've been working on this for hours, I can't figure it out.

wow thats awesome! :D love your tutorials! ^^

hey nice i was wondering when you use an adjustment layer s there anyway to stop it affecting a layer beneath it?
as in want to do this but my subject and background are seperate layers so in order for the droplets to look correct have to use an adjustment layer to affect both of them bu then this leaves me with the problem of not being able to add a background with out it being turned into part of the mr mercury, please help

The real drops in fact refract the light. So the groung must be at the top, and the clouds at the bottom.

thanks andy really cool . i wanna buy this plug and make too

thank you for great great great tutorial

Av been waiting for this tuturial for a long time now

a million of tthanks from these nice tutorial looking for more tutorials from you

Oh my god!!!

You make me cry!!

Muchas gracias!

Looks good... I was just thinking that it would look better if the rain drops splattered on the lens and made a more irregular form... cause they look too perfect, making them look fake...

ESTE SITE É DE UMA QUALIDADE EM FORMA DE TUTORIAIS

Andrew, you are a credit to the filmmaking world! Keep it up, all your efforts are much appreciated.

Absolutely Awesome! I have purchased Real Clouds and several other VideoCopilot stuff, I can't get enough of it :D This inspired me to do a tornado scene:

Nice work ! Dead link for project :s

hola

HA! perfect for the rainy season that we rarely get here in soCal

its a great tutrial thinks Andrew
شكرا لك اندريو كيريمر ستظل رائعا

fantastic

Nice, I had forgotten about Mr Mercury! Great use for that effect.

I was really hoping to see some use of caustics in this one but I will keep adding that to my prayers each night. Thanks Andrew!

PS - I think I saw Sam hitching on Rt.66 last night.

Thanks Andrew - and much like Jack commented I too was thinking of using this for a blood-splatter effect. Here's a test clip of it on my site (note that the footage will be very different, this is just a proof of concept to myself):

http://slaptheface.com/blog/?p=242

Also, Jack, if you've come up with anything I'd be interested in seeing how you've done it and what you came up with, or if anyone has any ideas on how to improve it I'd love to hear them as well.

nice!!!

hello andrew you are the best, god,the king. here one bubbling in my living room.

One thing that I thought I'd mention is that when you look through a rain drop on glass, the image past it is flipped upside down rather than being right side up. So it would probably work better to duplicate the layer and flip it vertically and add the effect so that the image is refracted to being upside down through the water.

BIG UP MAN YOU'RE THE BEST

Wohoo Cool

great tutorial.. as usual
but you seem kinda sad tho...

great tutorial And the effect is awesome greetings to you andrew.

Great one, got a question though-
I wanted to make the drops to freeze, then orbit around them; unfortunately these aren't particles, so I tried with CC Particle World and Particular. But Particle World does not seem to have a "Physics Time Factor" and Particular can't use a layer as a texture for the particles, can it? Sorry if I'm missing something, just could not get it right

you ar misine you ar gerit thneks

Andrew u r best.....lovely tutorial..... keep going.... i m following u .

good demo of the uses of some of the effects people might not see as a useful, made me want to look at all the effects i first thought were redundant to me and see what they can really do.

also, by you showing me the different ways you can manipulate this effect has given me the idea for the horror film i'm making where with this plugin i can create a blood splatter on screen that can appear then run down the lens, so in that respect, thanks for the idea!!!

regards,

Jack (U.K)

so will we ever see sam agin? did he join the circus? with friends like you who needs enemys?

another great job.

randy mann

I get really sick of people talking bad about these tutorials, Andrew does posts these for free and takes time out of his day to do this. We are lucky to have these.


Andrew, I was just wondering if there was a way to flip the images inside of the droplets?

Thanks for the awesome tutorial!

hey Andrew
Great work............. Keep it up

I'm using CS3 but the CC effects are missing, what can I do please? thanks

LOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOOLOLOLOLOL!!!>-(>-(

Nice ...I like this...Maaaaaaan it is awesome!!
Thanks a lot by the way for your great effort.
Look, you even have appreciations from Eastern Europe.

Just checked out Aharon's Weather Replacement tutorial, it's definitley worth a look at!


I'm sure that he probably answers all of your questions in his 3-part tutorial at Creativecow.net

Nice one mate

hi A.K.
This is Fabulouse work.Great Job
keep it up

Thank You Very Much Again

So I tried this before and it was a disaster. But of course the Zeus of effects goes and does this....Haha thanks man.

Nice tutrial, i've tried to do this effect but never succeed. That was a simple and fast solution, thanks man!

PS: You should turn the layer upside down before aplying the effect, in real life the image formed by the rain drops is inverted.

I have a tutorial request
http://youtube.com/watch?v=0IIaaSQaGWQ&feature=user

it has some cool effects from 1:00 to like 1:10
the shield and the hand flame if you can make tutorials for those it would be awsome....once again great tutorial

I love watching your tutorials and I have learned a lot. I want to get into Autodesk Maya and I was wondering if you knew any great video tutorial sites. With out your tutorials, I wouldn't know one third of the stuff I know now. Thanks .

ps : sorry for the quality

you are amazing... :)

stop saying "I hope u find this tut useful" all your tuts are useful ffs :P

Wow you are graet mate you so kind cuse you give us a new view and learning us a good thing,

you are coooooool like your tutorials buddy

Fairly simple yet very effective. This should come in handy here in Hawaii, and also save some time and possibly scratches on the lens as now I don't really have to let it get wet. Thanks.

Cool effect, but I prefer the effect like time freezing, you know. Just rain and then time become slow and stop. And the camera turn over... or Turn around somebody like Matrix !
Sorry for my english I hope you'll understand
