Longest tutorial in Video Copilot history; Sadly, I had to cut out some really great jokes, some because of time constraints, others because this site is rated PG-13 ; )

Thanks to James Wicks for the rotation tip!

I'm just about finished with the Earth Zoom tutorial. I've also been reading all the suggestions and the information has been very helpful. I'm going to get the Tutorial up soon.
PS: Here is a small taste of the quality you can expect!

Okay... list em.

Consider this, I like to make tutorials that are helpful to a large audience.

Where should I go next? Should I create tutorials demonstrating integration with Flash or a 3D program? And which 3D program would you prefer. I am pretty good at 3D max, but I'm sure I could get up to speed on C4D.

I know the majority of my tutorials will continue to use the core function of After Effects but I would like to open the door to other effects not possible in AE.

Just wondering...

In this tutorial advance your skills with for a fresh new perspective on 3D projection. Remember to refresh your browser ; )
