Still relevant even many years later, thank you. I'm just in the middle of this tutorial but I already have so many ideas about how to use the same effects to achieve different results.
Anyone who needs help with the Text, I worked it out. You have to go to Compostion in the to menu -> new. The create a new Text layer by selecting "Layer - New -> Text" from the top menu, you can style it how you want with the Font options box on the right/where you see paragraph, effects etc. He's using the Font "Die Hund", copy his options to get to the stroke(white border). This composition will be in your project panel on the left. Click the "The Grid" composition where his says "Comp 1, Output Grid, The Grid A, Digital Growth" etc, then drag your text composition from the project box down and put it above the Digital Growth layer and it will be like his, then you can continue from from 13:37 (his text layer/composition is named "Title_Template". Hope that helps anyone else who gets stuck :)
I was already planning on buying E3D when I get to that stage in my learning, but if I hadn't been, I would be now. All the tutorials you do for regular non-plugin effects, the free plugins, the quality and enthusiasm of your teaching style. I'm so impressed and thankful, as a learner, that I don't think I could express it without sounding even more goofy and corny than I undoubtedly already do. Thank you.
+D2K Prime he commented similar on my own reply. I don't think his English is too strong but his other message says he's using cs4 so maybe it's that causing issues
The main thing i'm learning about Vfx is: It doesn't matter how your project looks inside the software, if its just a bunch of weird layers all improvised or whatever. What matters is the final result, the render. BUT you have to remember you may want to change something later, so your project must be recursive.
I learned so many techniques watching you, but there's one lesson that definitely all us learned with you... Experimentation! That's the key... Many thanks Andrew
You have to watch the tutorial very close. Do not just follow what he says in words, push the pause button anytime the cursor moves, to see what he just hit. Also,when he makes his adjustment like (opacity) I would pause and put the exact numbers. One thing I noticed (among others), was that the tutorial composition is for ten seconds, but if you time the video of the actual effects, it is approximately 18 seconds long. So there are things you have to play around with like he says in his tutorial. I like that he leaves a few things (simply things) out because that forces you to learn. Maybe a little frustrating, but I have learned so much!! Thanks Andrew!
Yet another God-tier tutorial here!! Love it, i genuinely struggle to believe that this is all free too! Incredible work Andrew as ever! Sidenote - i was having issues with editing the bezier curve at 04:27 , whereby i couldn't rotate the handles when changing the curve. I fixed it by clicking the 'choose graph type and options' button, and switching it to value graph rather than speed graph. Just wanted to share in case anyone else is experiencing this issue :) Thanks again Andrew! These videos are genuinely timeless!!
Could anybody explain me how the GRID text was executed....coz that was not shown in this tutorial i.e from 13:34 And I am unable to drag the Grid back to Z space and neither able to use the Camera from 17:54 Please help me clarify my doubts anybody
I've been using this tutorial for the past couple days and the project came out great! Thanks a lot Andrew, killer tutorial. If I may make a suggestion, could you do a keystroke overlay so we know exactly which shortcuts you're using? Thank you again!!
Thanks man I needed this one. One of my professors told us to make a titantron (if your a wrestling fan you know what that is) for our exam. Looks like I wasnt the only one watching wrestling or wwe in ourschool, haha. this will help alot. Thanks bro
Every time I'd watch an After Effects tutorial, I have the music video on stand by so when I hear TD being spoken, I pause that tutorial then play a couple seconds of the TD music video xD
Is there another tutorial explaining the BEST part of the Grid Experiment, the beginning introduction to the main title? The circuitboard effect with the camera movements should be explained! please!
+Jordan Ortez The movement of the camera is really easy. You activate 3d and make your templates 3d and you make some camera movements. After you duplicate your templates and offset them.
Hey Dude I have never seen such professional stuff shown on youtube and I love this kind of stuff the making of videos and editing oh I just love it but I know so little about them I really am looking forward to learn more by watching your videos so please keep up with the great content like this.
superb tutorial - just followed this through and got my own mess of DOF'd digital noise - epic :D will work a treat for some of my HUD elements :D thanks AK! personal fave moment was going to google for electrical puns then "ah never mind" - nearly spat coffee lol!

I was having the issue (14:40) where the lightning was still showing up behind the letters and not interacting with the alpha channel as shown. After investigating I found under Advanced Lightning > Expert Settings > Main Core Collision Only
You are truly the best guy, but I am using the mac book pro and when i open the project file it is asking me to convert the file from 10.0.4 to windows 64, now I am wondering if it does support with mac book pro?
Video Copilot How do you move the lightning like the cross hair things at 2:50 you move the lightning but on my screen there's no cross hairs, how do I do that?
figured it out, i changed the lightning back to direction and the cross hairs were there, then went down to bouncey and the cross hairs were still there so i could move it.
can u pls upload the full tutorial of what happens in the "grid experiment 30 sec" video..from starting till the end .. i want to learn every animation technique which is shown in that 30 sec video.....pls if u can upload i would b thankfull to u....

This is seriously one of the coolest things I've seen that can be done with a video editor. Very clear tutorial, nice job!

Each time Andrew says it, I like that he finds his own tutorials so exciting. :)
yeah excalty,...He feels so proud on his work.
After all these years, I am still watching this tutorial
The humor can be very droll at times, but your tutorials are unmatched by anyone.
+D2K Prime sorry friend, that the draft version works is that I get an error or something asy version
Um....okay?

Hablamos catalán . Estoy practicando pero no muy bien haha :)
im always in awe of how you even think that these effects and layers can turn out like that. have loved you videos for a long time

The secret to AK's success: add another adjustment layer, and push it back in z space, followed immediately by the ancient chant, "Pr Et iK Ool."
lolz
You forgot to change it to screen.

"Rotate it 45 degrees. Makes it about 45% more futuristic." Ehehehehe
I've been using this tutorial for the past couple days and the project came out great! Thanks a lot Andrew, killer tutorial. If I may make a suggestion, could you do a keystroke overlay so we know exactly which shortcuts you're using? Thank you again!!
Love these CoPilot videos! Clear and impressive easy-to-follow delights. And very funny.
I might only be watching this for your sense of humor I swear !
More seriously, still relevant 10 years later
The Greatest motion designer. Thank you very much for all your stuff and tutorials.
"The higher the value, the more the forking"
Turns value up on max and hopes for the best.
Andrew, thank you SO MUCH for your tutorials.
We really apreciate it as much as I can't even describe!
Wow, what a creative way to use the lightning effect. Pretty obvious Mr Kramer here is on top of his game ^___^
Brilliant stuff. Clear and impressive demonstrations that are easy to follow. Love it.
No one ever made better tuts then this guy
AK never stops surprising me with this great videos!
Dude, you are a genius.
Bad Robot should be like "WOW" every time you go to work.
45% more futuristic; that a good one!
The intro about LinkedIn. LMAO!!!
Love the tutorial! Very insightful!
To much Film Riot on my part, at 16:30 I was expecting Josh to dance to Turbulent Displacement

SuperGbip Leave it up to Ryan and Josh to pervert our minds in the effects rack of After Effects

10 years later still getting some tips from this video
Very nice, As a beginner, Would there be a tutorial on the editing to create the full clip?
Thanks man I needed this one. One of my professors told us to make a titantron (if your a wrestling fan you
know what that is) for our exam. Looks like I wasnt the only one watching wrestling or wwe in ourschool, haha.

Awesome tutorial, I learned a lot about After Effects and I made a stunning new intro video as a result!

Very helpful. I directly used it for my first episodes. :)
Legend ,I never became fan of any movie star but I am fan of video copilot

Love, love, love, love these tutorials!!! #theBest

You sir are a genius. Thank you so much for such an excellent tutorial.

OMG. Thsi tutorial is amazing
Great tutorial!. Would be nice if we could see all the shortkeys you use. Thanks!
I was having the issue (14:40) where the lightning was still showing up behind the letters and not interacting with the alpha channel as shown. After investigating I found under Advanced Lightning > Expert Settings > Main Core Collision Only
Excelente tutorial. Gracias Andrew
Esta perro es efecto y las letras!
Duuuuuuuuuuude ! that was mind blowing !!!
This effect is buddy as hell. Lines are turning on and off, flickering, Ive been playing with the settings for an hour and its just a mess.
I find it easier to control the camera by selecting "4 Views" instead of "1 View". Its located on the bottom of the Render Window.
Lmao at the Google > "Electrical puns" part xD
You are truly the best guy, but I am using the mac book pro and when i open the project file it is asking me to convert the file from 10.0.4 to windows 64, now I am wondering if it does support with mac book pro?
Video Copilot How do you move the lightning like the cross hair things at 2:50 you move the lightning but on my screen there's no cross hairs, how do I do that?
