Hello. For some reason, the mask tool isn't working for me... Not sure what I am doing wrong. If anyone has any suggestions, it would be much appreciated

I don't know why but my frames that I rendered aren't showing up in the project window.
Did someone had this problem too? If so please help me.

Lol. Sometimes I re-watch some of your tutorials again, just for the comedy relief. I know I'll always get a chuckle or two out of your asides, and sometimes a laugh-out-loud, too. You're a natural comedian, man. And a Master of CGI. You make it look so easy! Thanks for your generosity with your expertise.

Like this tutorial. I have a question. How did you get the lighting effects on the second part of the tutorial? I was looking at the last 2 red solids and they have fx on them. Did you use a ramp on both and then change the transfer mode to get the seamless floor and walls?
Keep up the good work.

Acredito que todos que começam a ter uma base do After é pelo Videocopilot.net, adoro os tutoriais e aprendo muito com o site, sou muito grato.

Muito Obrigado.

Este foi um dos tutoriais que não consegui acompanhar pois quando é pra inserir o "CC particle World" aparece a seguinte mensagem:
This favorite contains 1 reference to a missing effects. Please install the following effect to restore this reference. ("CC Particle World&quot, e não sei o que faço, se alguem puder me ajudar agradeço.

Obrigado.!

Hey Andrew I like your stuff and well I just have to say that you have skills. I was just wondering though...If you can do a tutorial on how you created the video ink drops that are a .mov file in your riot gear. They're sweet and I would like to know how they were created from scratch. Can you do this for a film creator that's coming up in the ranks of your stardom?
